View 1 Replieslink to a tutorial that explains how to display data in a grid/table style view. I'm trying to create a catalog (using xml), I know how to display the information retrieved from the xml file, I just don't know how to display it in a grid/table style. And also the next and previous buttons I got to work while showing one at a time (kirupa xml gallery tutorial).

And an additional question: is there any other way to display a table inside a text ?
I have a dynamic text box for 3 lines of text. I styled part of the text to be bold and part of it to be regular. When i click on the button to display the text it looks right the first time but if i click on it a second time then all of the text shows up bold instead of just the few lines i assigned the bold tag to.

View 1 Replies-Adobe CS3 Web Premium. -Compiling using AS3. I'm pulling in some text values from an external XML file for a "next" button and I set the font to bold when I made it Verdana. I'm not sure why but it still is normal verdana when I compile it.
I've found several posts similar to mine saying I need to embed the bold version of the font, but I don't have the option of purchasing or creating a bold Verdana. Since it is just Verdana, is there not a method I can use to simply bold the text?
I've imported four fonts into the Library and used Linkage to enable Export for Actionscript. The fonts are the four versions of Trebuchet MS:
Trebuchet MS
Trebuchet MS Bold
Trebuchet MS Bold Italic
Trebuchet MS Italic
They are named like this in the Library and for example the 'Bold Italic' version has both 'bold' and 'italic' selected in its properties.
Then I drew a dynamic textfield and selected for it's font 'Trebuchet MS Bold Italic*' so that the embed font was used. I also embeded the glyphs for 'Basic Latin' and 'Latin 1'.
Then I used this code to fill it with text:
ActionScript Code:
my_txt.embedFonts = true;
my_txt.text = "This is a sample";
The text is placed, however, it is always in the Trebuchet MS regular font. Also when I click the bold and italic icons in the Property Bar, the font won't go bold/italic. The same for just bold and just italic. It only turns bold/italic when I delete all font symbols accept the Bold Italic one.
Take a look at these example:
Code:
function loadMap():Void {
varxdata:XML = new XML();
xdata.ignoreWhite = true;
[Code]....
Now, im creating a local variable var var_temp:String; cause, there is no way that i can pass the values, inside the onLoad handler to a property of the class.
If i try some this.some_var its reference to escope inside the onLoad handler..
I am currently working on an Adobe AIR application that shows the user some graphical data. As this data is more in height to fit the screen height, I've placed it inside a scroller.
Now I want to take a print of this visual data, mostly some charts and lists but I only see a single page containing only the part of the screen that is currently visible to the user. I want to have the entire content inside the scroller to appear on the page.
I am working with a scrollpane that loads dynamic content into holder mcs, I also have another mc that loads from library as a background for the scrollpane. It is not an image but a vector background generated entirely in Flash. I would like to have this background tile according to content length so that when you scroll you always see the image. I know this is a common task and normally I would solve it on my own but I'm not feeling very lucid today..
View 1 RepliesI have a flash mp3 player that I want to embed in a page and I need to insert the data of two external .xml files in an action inside the first frame (there are some server limitations that don't allow reading of external xml, txt and js files). The action I have now is:
Code:
if (!_root.playlisturl) {
_root.playlisturl = "playlist.xml";
}
if (!_root.infourl) {
_root.infourl = "info.xml";
}
so, what I want to do is paste the contents of those two .xml files inside my Flash movie somewhere so the above script accesses them directly and does not have to call outside files. Is there a tutorial somewhere that outlines this procedure? I know that this is the contrary from what .xml is used for but I can't do much now..
I am creating a website in Flash CS5 and Im having trouble with linking a button inside a movie clip inside another movie clip. In theory it should work as ive tried but doesn't. I have a movieclip called content for the main/top level pages but then i have sub pages which I have created another movie clip content2
This is code I have (an example):
about.onRelease = function(){
content.gotoAndStop("About");
}
This code works in the top level pages. My porblem is linking from here to a sub level page (movieclip in movieclip).
info.onRelease = function(){
content.content2.gotoAndStop("Info");
}
I've done exactly the same as i would have for top level pages. How can this be fixed? Can it be done in AS2 if not can it be done in AS3 and what is a SIMPLE method in AS3 to link pages etc. I want to keep the pages/frames organised using movie clips to layer them. I want a good structure.
I have a series of images (movie clips) inside a container movie clip.I need to somehow scroll those images within the clip left and right with buttons rather than a scroll bar.

I have a Card class. From this class, I have three possible children: Photo, Video and Info. In my main class, I want to create a few instances of these different classes without knowing what kind it is. But, no matter that, I want them all to listen to the mouse, so I may have something like this:
ActionScript Code:
var item:Card = new Photo();
item.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseHandler);
The thing is: the Card class is kinda like a canvas... it has certain properties common to every type of item, but there's a space where it leaves it as a canvas... a Photo instance will load a photo there, a Video instance will load a video and a Info instance will load text to a TextField. The problem is that the event listener doesn't work the way I want it to... on an Info instance, the target of the click is the TextField; on a Photo instance is the picture... I want them all to be the class itself... in other words, I want to be able to parse the target as a child of the Card class. My code for the mouseHandler method is
ActionScript Code:
private function mouseHandler(e:MouseEvent):void
{
if(e.target is Photo)
[Code].....
That's the main idea... to be able to know what kind of object I'm clicking and access its properties... but on an Info instance, e.target is of type TextField... to be able to access the Info object, I have to do e.target.parent, and that is NOT the idea.
I got an issue and i can not figured out why this utton not working. So. Here is the code which i use to navigate between pages:

I'm having trouble to center any dynamic content (movieclips, textfields...) inside a dynamically created movieclip, which has a default point of interested in the top left corner.
PS: Just as an example, I have a dynamically created text field inside a dynamically created movieclip....and when I try to scale that movieclip I need to scale it from its center
I'm starting with AS3, i have a problem. I have a button, and inside the button i have a dynamic text field. The button is inside of a movieclip, the instance name of it is News, the instance name of the button is collegamento and the instance name of the dynamic text is Testo. So knowing this I'm triyng to change the content of the text using:
News.collegamento.Testo.htmlText="text here";
But Flash is giving me this error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property
Testo not found on
flash.display.SimpleButton and there
is no default value. at

View 1 Replieswhen I leave a window with flash content, in this case, a scrolling movie clip with buttons inside set to hyperlink popups (only 1 hyperlink is set so far): [URL] the flash content will disappear. So if I go back to the window, I have to reload the page to get the flash to appear again. Same thing happens if I minimize the window, when I bring it back up, no flash, and I have to reload the page. The menubar with the boxes at the top is flash as well (different swf) and that doesn't have this problem.

View 2 RepliesI've got an FLA which was originally created using CS3, and i've got a dynamic textfield in it that uses font "Gadget".If i open the FLA in CS3, it gives me option to toggle the BOLD option, and when i compile it, the font appears to be bold in the compiled swf.
When I open the same FLA in CS5 (version 11.0.2.489),
---> I don't get any option to make the font bold on the same textfield,
---> and when i compile it, the text remain the same, it does not show as bold.
I've got a dynamic text field that I want to sometimes be bold, sometimes not. It's called "myTextField".I'm sending it a variable called "myText" and trying to bold it as follows:myTextField.text = "<B>" + myText + "</B>"
- The text field has the font embedded.
- I have some regular AND bold text in the text field in authoring
- The text field is set to receive HTML text in properties.
But it keeps putting "<B>" right in the text field before my variable and "</B>" after. What am I missing / not getting here?I know I've done this before, but can't find where.

i'm using a font called "AGBookBQ-Regular" in a dynamic text box, which loads a text file. i understand that to include the bold and italic options, i have placed another text box just out of view off the stage with these two options selected.italic works fine but the bold makes very little difference... it only stretches the font slightly.i've searched for the answer to make a much bolder font and it seems you can use a specific bold font as the bold font.i've tried this, but nothing happens. i think i'm interpreting it correctly, but if someone could please confirm this works and perhaps explain it a little clearer (using my specific font names... "AGBookBQ-Regular" and "AGBookBQ-Medium" as the bold font).
