I have 3 different dynamic text boxes filled with an even amount of content and I can link the UIScollBar to one of the boxes just fine, but I can't seem to find a way to make the content in all three boxes scroll simultaneously with a single UIScrollBar?
I want to control 2 Dynamic Text boxes with the same scroll bar component? I want them to scroll simultaneously with the user only needing to use the one component.
I am having some trouble with a dynamic html-enabled textfield and the uiscrollbar component. I created a dynamic textfield on the stage, named it "mytext". Enable it for HTML and make it multiline. I added this action: mytext.htmlText="test<BR><BR>test<BR><BR>test" The html shows up just fine. I add a uiscrollbar to it. It is definitely targeted for "mytext". Now when I test it I get: _level0.mytext in the textbox instead. When I trace mytext.htmlText, I get the correct HTML but it just doesn't show up. When I shorten my content so that the UIscrollbar isn't necessary, the HTML is again displayed correctly. Now if I update the code to say instead:
I have a window on my Flash stage that has some scrollable copy in it. The problem is, I can't seem to have any formatting for the text ... if I select a word or two to make bold, it all turns bold. I gather I need to use the "Display Text as HTML" checkbox and then paste in some HTML formatted text but this doesn't seem to work. I searched this forum and found that others were designating "htmlText" in Actionscript instead of just "text" ... that didn't work either. I probably just did it wrong, or maybe it's becuase I'm using the UI component "UIscrollBar" for it's scrolling of the text.
Is there anything else I need to do to be able to format some text with strong tags and maybe some href links?
I have my properties inspector with the following check marks:
I have text that is in a scrollable box using the scroll bar component and I would like to be able to format headlines differently than the main body copy, etc. How do I do this? The text is dynamic, multiple line.Was hoping not to have to use external files.
I'm dragging the uiScrollbar into a dynamic text field. When I preview (control+enter) the scroll bar works fine. When I publish and preview in a browser the outline of the scroll bar is there but with out the parts/components up and down arrows the little bar you grab holt of and pull up and down.
I have a dynamic text field on stage bringing in text from a .txt file. pretty basic. scrollbar works fine with this setup.
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("home_updates.txt"); loader.load(myRequest); loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, textloaded);
I have a flash site (scene 1) with scrollable text fields. I want to create a separate (popup) flash page in a completely separate scene (scene 2) that will open in a new window from a link within scene 1.
In scene 1 there are various frames within the timeline that contain scrollable dynamic text (information) that will occasionally be updated.
I want a popup window to open scene 2 and contain the updated information from scene 1. In other words, I don't want to have to update both scenes to display the same information.
There are actually several frames that contain different information in each and I want all the information to appear in scene 2 in a stacked order as dynamic text so that users can scroll through all the pages from scene 1 without having to navigate to other frames.
I'm trying to have a scrollbar in my .fla for controlling images (put together in a movie clip) and viewing the different ones. The scrollbar component only seems to work with text boxes, and I can't find a decent tutorial on how to use scroll panes (or why I should) to save my life.It seems SO simple.
can't figure out why the dynamic text boxes in my dynamic clip arent picking up the variable when I loop through this recordset!the trace (you'll see here right after I try two ways to assign the variable) traces the correct info back..
I have 4 dynamic text boxes which duplicates the text from a main input text box. How do I write a code to make visible only the dynamic text box I want when clicked it's check box.What is the CODE to make each "DYNAMIC TEXTBOX" visible when clicked on it's checkbox?
I was wondering if it's possible to have a dynamic text box that can change sizes, without distorting the text displayed in it... I would also like to set it up dynamically.
I have a INPUT TEXT inside a mc called "txt mc" and DYNAMIC TEXT in the main time line.I'm trying to display what's typed in the INPUT TEXT (my_Input_Txt) in the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes (my_Dyn_Txt1, my_Dyn_Txt2, my_Dyn_Txt3).Here's the code. But it won't simply work perhaps because the INPUT TEXT is inside a MC. I need to have the INPUT TEXT INSIDE THAT MC while having the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes out in the main time line.
I'm trying to implement a feature like the text boxes in adobe photoshop. I want my user to be able to add a text box to the stage that they can move(drag and drop) and go back and change the text later. I also want to be able to keep track of the text boxes so I can let the user change the color, etc. How can I do this?
I had a form working fine at [URL] and then I edited something that made it screw up. I have been poring over the code but I can't figure out what I did wrong.look at the Contacts page and tell me if you can discern what would cause the lettering in the dynamic text boxes.
This might be straight forward, but I would like to know how could one link dynamic text boxes so that the information would flow? In a way, the information would flow from:
(XML) Input A into BOXA00, BOXA01, BOXA02, BOXA03, etc. (XML) Input B into BOXB00, BOXB01, BOXB02, BOXB03, etc. (XML) Input C into BOXC00, BOXC01, BOXC02, , BOXC03, etc.
how can i set up buttons to fill text boxes with dynamic text from an xml document?i want button 1 to load some information about item1 in the text box when the button is moused over and then when the button is clicked it should open up a new browser window for that item.then button 2 will do the same thing in the same text box but with the info for item 2.i have 2 text boxes, one is called "title" which will have the name of the product, the other is named "ssnumber" and it will have the product number. already have an xml file. and i have already done this in as2 (and it worked fine but i just got word that the people hosting this will only accept as3. this is my first attempt at as3, it is a lot different.here is the code i have from my book
var xml loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader (); xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadXML);
I am using xml to populate my dynamic text boxes... however when i load the web page and sometimes it takes a little longer the text boxes say Level 10 MC or undefined or something until the dynamic text gets loaded from the xml... What i am wondering is if there is a way to not display any text until the xml text is loaded into the file.
I'm having trouble with subtracting hp (a number in a dynamic text box). There's a variable on the main timeline for hp, and I'm trying to edit this when the character takes a hit.My character has over 350 hp at the beginning, but after one hit, it goes down to something like 1 or 6, and then after the next couple hits it'll go back to something in the 100s or 200s.
I am working on a exam program in Flash CS5. There's a page that displays the scores for each test a user has completed; and on that page I'm putting a print button so the users can print the results. So far I've found only one script that will actually work to print anything at all[code]...
The dynamic text boxes are supposed to be placed inside a movie clip called "proforma" and you're supposed to be able to place it anywhere, even off the stage - but where it apparently worked for the person in the thread I found it in, it doesn't work in my program. I don't know if it prints the dynamic text boxes; I can't get that far, because when I click print using this script, it tries to print every single frame in the program and practically kills my computer in the process, trying to spool so many pages.
I have created an array, however, when I go to call up this array within a dynamic text box, for instance, putting 'varname[1]', into the variable field. However, this does not return a result. Is there something I'm doing wrong here, or do I have to feed the array into normal variables for the dynamic text box to be able to read it?
