ActionScript 3.0 :: AntiAliasing Text Overlapping?

Sep 10, 2008

I'm working on a project, and decided that readability was too low, so I enabled advanced antialiasing on text throughout the site. In the majority of places, it looks correct, however anywhere in text where the color changes, the text overlaps (e.g. a block of grey text with a blue link in it, the blue link text actually begins on top of the end of the previous word). The weirdest part is that if you roll over the first piece of text (that lies under the second piece), the text shifts and it looks correct.

I have screenshots of before and after and some code examples below. I've attempted to utilize the TextRenderer functionality in flash.text to no avail (setting any advanced antialiasing settings to make Flash treat light and dark text the same results in a crash of the Flash player, so I've abandoned this method) and manually setting thickness and sharpness seem to change nothing.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Applying Antialiasing To Text And Color

Sep 24, 2010

First an issue applying antialiasing to my text, it seems to not be used if the text color is anything but white. The second also regards the cell renderer. I've noticed a difference in the sharpness/brightness of text color (excluding the smoothed character edges) when enabling font embedding, do the rendering tecniques include a sort of blending with the background to less enthe text's visual impact?

Disable Antialiasing For Text In HTML Components (Windows)?

Jan 30, 2010

I have an AIR application that uses the HTML component to display a significant portion of content (I set the html myself, it is not loaded remotely). The text displays normally on Mac (I think Mac antialiases all text by default). However, on windows, the text displays anti-aliased regardless of the OS settings. It ends up giving everything a red tint.

Ideally, I'd like to be able to control whether or not the text gets anti-aliased. Does anyone know if there's a way to to this in Flex / AIR?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Render Using Glowfilter And Antialiasing For Readability?

Oct 9, 2010

when I add a dark glow to some text using 'Glowfilter', the text is set to use antialias for readability.When I preview my flash file the text renders incorrectly - the last few pixels on the right hand side of the block of text are missing. i.e. if I use the text 'word' then the vertical line on the right of the 'd' character doesn't render.If I change the antialias setting on the text to use device font or antialias for animation the problem doesn't happen.

IDE :: Antialiasing Embedded Fonts In Static Text Fields

Aug 10, 2011

I've been struggling to get some text antialiased in a static text field in CS4. The text field is using an embedded font, with antialiasing set to "Anti-alias for readability".

The field is referring to the font symbol in the library and the symbol does not have bitmap text enabled.

When viewing the field itself, the text looks properly antialiased. The field is inside a graphic symbol. When I navigate out of the graphic symbol, the text loses its antialiasing. It is also not antialiased when published.

It has something to do with the font symbol, as it antialiases properly if I set the font to the actual font on the system. It's not a standard font though, so will need to be embedded.

The three images show the text in the text field, the symbol and the published swf.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Text Fields Are Overlapping

Jan 27, 2009

I'm trying to develop a textual analysis program that randomly displays words around the canvas. These words are different sizes.

I've been able to randomize the positions of the words around the screen, but often times, they are overlapping each other. I'm stuck on how to check if the words are overlapping, and if they are, to re-randomize again until the textfield square is in an open spot.

Movie Clips Overlapping?

Mar 6, 2010

I'm working on a game where clicking an object causes cartoon animals to appear. The animals stick around and do a little animation for about 5 seconds, before disappearing. I'm having a problem where if I click the object before the animal disappears, another appears on top of it.This is my code:

on (release) {
i = Math.ceil(Math.random()*3);
if (i == 1) {[code]...........

I'm trying to find a way to make it so "on release" is disabled for a set period of time once it executes, enough time to ensure the animal movie clip playing has disappeared.

MovieClip With Hit Zones - Buttons Overlapping

Apr 13, 2009

I have a movie clip with hit zones over buttons. It looks like a cam corder and when you roll over them a thumb moves to that button and when you click. The thumb presses on the button. That all works great. I want to put buttons in the main scene over top of these that will change things on the screen when you click it. And get urls of the videos that I have on my website. But when I put the hitzones over other hitzones the ones in back dont work. Is there a way to make them both work or am I going to have to make everything contained in the movie clip? So in short can I have two buttons on top of each other that do two different things?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Overlapping Buttons Can't Working

May 30, 2011

This seems like such an easy thing to do but it's driving me crazy. Sorry if this is a simple question. In a site I am building it is necessary to have a large movieclip overlaid over an image gallery. This movieclip controls scrolling so has a rollover listener attached, but of course the gallery pictures also need to have button actions. I cannot get them both working at the same time. How can I make it so that rolling over a movieclip doesn't disable the rollover for any movieclips underneath it? Here is a very simple example of the problem. Where the two buttons intersect, I want for the rollover to trigger them both: [URL]

ActionScript 1/2 :: Improving Performance With Overlapping MCs?

Oct 29, 2009

I'm having some performance issues in certain areas of a flash game Im making.
 
Here's the situation: I have big movieclip containing a map that can be scrolled and scaled. There are some pannels with a bunch of MC buttons, controls, etc. on the right side of the stage. These are seperate from the map and stay in the same place.
 
Everything runs fine untill the large map is  zoomed in and/or scrolled such that the right side buttons and stuff are overlapping them map. Then the framerate jumps down from a nice smooth 30 fps to about 3 fps while the map is moving. There are no issues with the map moving when they don't overlap.
 
Now the thing is, is that's there's no real interaction between the buttons and the map. No transparency or anything, in fact I'm perfectly happy with the map dissapearing behind a side pannel. There are only about 3 pannels that the screen drawing routine would have to worry about, as all the buttons rest on top of the pannels, so why is my performance taking such a hit?
 
(Hmmm. Actually I do have a lot of transparency, but each is on top of a solid background, and none interact with the map.)

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Stop Overlapping Sound

If I just have one song on the entire timeline, whenever I move across different labels, the song overlaps.

Html :: Flash - Overlapping CSS Problem In IE?

It's so hard to figure out, because once I refresh the page, it goes away.########### SOLVED ###################### SOLVEDI set the flash output as a javascript var (actually json_encoded PHP output) and on document load inserted the object into the "flashContent" div with the jQuery.(document).ready event.

Flash :: Layout - Overlapping An Html Div?

Apr 1, 2011

I have a weather widget that is flash and expandable. one of the issues i had is when I expand the widget, it wouldn't expand passed the flash container size, so most of the content is cut up. I increased the size of the flash container and that worked. The problem is that the I have another facebook widget that is below the weather widget and that got pushed a lot. I moved the facebook widget up with a negative margin and now they are aligned fine. BUT i can't interact with the facebook widget. and I think the reason is that it is actually behind the flash container. it works fine on ie but i am trying to get it to work on chrome. I have changed the z-index to make the facebook widget on top of the flash, but the flash started to appear behind the facebook now.[URL]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listeners And Overlapping MC's?

Feb 1, 2009

Im sure this has been asked a million times, so forgive me but I cannot seem to find an answer or my search query is wrong. I am using Tweener for animation.

I have 2 MC's on my stage. I have an event listener for my main MC (MOUSE_OVER, MOUSE_OUT) that triggers Tweener to animate another MC on top of the main clip. The problem is that when it overlaps the listener no longer works, and tried to execute the MOUSE_OUT. I understand why its not working, I just cant find a solution. Here is the code and a simple FLA.

ActionScript Code: import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
square.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, RollItIn, false, 0, true);
square.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, RollItOut, false, 0, true);
function RollItIn(evt:MouseEvent):void {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stopping Sound From Overlapping?

Aug 31, 2009

How can I control sound in flash so that:

2) the music doesn't overlap when going back to the homepage where the music first started playing??

I'm currently using the code below but the music overlaps when I press the play button more than once while the music is playing and when I go back to the page where the music started playing...

Code:
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var lastPosition:Number = 0; // pause button

ActionScript 3.0 :: Overlapping In Flash Movie

Jan 25, 2011

I have not used Flash for around 10 years so am fighting my way back in. For my website about mountain biking I have created a scrolling map withe buttons on in the correct locations that you will click and take you too the relevant page.

My problem is on the mouse over for the buttons text comes out of the side but if there is a button next to it the text comes out under the next button. How do I make it so that its not overlapped by anything. I did think about creating a layer at the top of my flash file and putting all of the text movies in it so that they would not be overlapped. Check out my work so far below, you can see what I mean if you mouse over the button to the bottom left.
