ActionScript 3.0 :: Adjust Spacing Between Dynamic Text Width?
Apr 4, 2011
I'm building a dynamic menu and am struggling to give the same distance to the text fields with different widths. When I turn on the "autoSize TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT" some text fields are overlapped, and, aligned when I turn off, but, they all get the same size (100px by default - dont know why), which makes the distance between them unequal.
Here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
// main timeline object
var index:Object=this;
// New Xml Object

I have the following AS2 code which creates dynamic buttons based on an array:
Code:
var labels_array:Array = new Array({label_txt:">> arquitectura industrial", gotoX:"partners"}, {label_txt:">> edificaciļæ½n", gotoX:"team"});
var initX:Number = 0;
[Code]....
the variable nextX places a new button every given number of pixels, in this case 140px. What I'll like to do is to make this value dynamic so that a new button is placed taking into account the width of the preceding button, plus a certain number of pixels.

I have a dynamic text box, displaying the text from XML file, which is created dynamically.My issue is that the text is shown in double spacing, instead of single spacing.I've been researching this for hours, and one website discussing this issue as "when a user insert value from windows platform, flash translates line brake as double space." So, when I look at the XML file, there is only one

So I have a project where there are 5 dynamic text fields, and I thought it would be quite simple. Create a dynamic text field, and then load in the .xml content, and I had it complete. However, it turns out that spacing is quite important, so my method will not work, and I'm kind of stumped how to proceed.So the things highlighted in red represent the .xml nodes, and as the width (character count) of TEAM1 and TEAM2 change, the spacing needs to remain consistant, and the static elements (the "vs." and "|" need to move accordingly, and the TEAMLOCATIONS need to stay lined up as well..Does anyone have a good idea how to handle this, or a good tutorial they could point out? I'm trying to build my own array structure, and calculate the width of "TEAM1", but it's slow going..

This component requires that you use Dynamic text, the Multiline behavior, and embed all fonts. There are 5 lines of copy on the banner. I need to make two of the lines of copy a larger font and also adjust line spacing on two of the lines. I can accomplish this using Static Text but cannot seem to get it to work in Dynamic Text. If I change the font size on selected text it changes ALL of the font sizes for everything within that text box.

In Flex 3, I've created a ComboBox within an MXML component similar to the following:
<mx:ComboBox id="comboBox" dataProvider="{_choices}" />
<mx:Script> <![CDATA[
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
// etc...
public function get choices():ArrayCollection { return _choices; }
[Code] .....
In the parent MXML application, I'm modifying the contents of the choices property:
myComponentId.choices.removeAll();
myComponentId.choices.addItem({data: "NY", label: "New York"});
myComponentId.choices.addItem({data: "CA", label: "California"});
// etc...
The binding is working in that the ComboBox is automatically picking up the new contents added at runtime, however it is not adjusting its width. The initial width of the ComboBox is wide enough only to show the initial item "All" declared in the component. However, I want and would have expected the ComboBox to re-size automatically during binding to be able to show "California", but it isn't. How can I get the ComboBox to update its width after I have added new wider labels to its dataProvider?

Is there a way I can stop a single word splitting over two lines when putting dynamic text into a fixed width, multiline text field?I have a simple method of checking if there are more lines than words and then running a while loop to reduce the font size until there are the same amount or less lines than words. But this doesnt always work, if say the final word of three is quite short and the second word splits over two lines then I still have 3 words and 3 lines.
