ActionScript 3.0 :: CSS Style Not Applying To Any TextField
Jan 17, 2010
I have 3 clips on my stage each containing a textfield into which I load 3 html files. I seem to have this part working fine, however the css I have loaded is not being applied to any text field. Not sure why. I am sure the fonts are embedded correct also. I have attached all the relevant files if needed. Ignore the scrollbars. They are the next challenge.
ActionScript Code:
//load the style sheet
var cssLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
cssLoader.load(new URLRequest("files/mici.css"));
cssLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, cssLoaded);
cssLoader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, errorHandler);
[Code] .....

I'm trying to use fl.controls.Button under Flash CS3 to replace some "classic" custom button symbols with resizable ones with a consistent look and feel. However, I want to apply an icon to the button when authoring the layout of a particular frame on the timeline - but the only way I can see to set the icon style on a button is at runtime with myButton.setStyle(). Is there no way to customise style properties of AS3 Components when authoring on the stage, such that the preview in the IDE vaguely matches the end result? The 'Properties' inspector only provides 'emphasized', 'label', 'labelPlacement', 'selected' and 'toggle' inspectable properties - how do I assign style information at authoring-time?

I'm trying to format some dynamically loaded text with CSS from a database via asp, I know that the asp works fine as it loads in, its just applying a style to the loaded text that doesn't work. This is a modified version from the Kirupa tutorial, but I cannot get it to work after many, many hours.

I have a Flex Column Chart that has a range of 0 - 6 on the y-axis. I have added the following block to change the default colour of the horizontal grid lines to black.
<mx:backgroundElements>
<mx:GridLines>
<mx:horizontalStroke>
[Code]....
This works fine for all but the horizontal grid line at the top of the chart (at y=6). If I change the maximum value for the y-axis to something different then this new max doesn't have the formatting applied (but all the others do).
how do I get the top line to be black like the rest of the grid lines?

Using AS3 I am dynamically creating, sizing, positioning and formatting a textfield. I am dynamically setting the content of the textfield from the contents of an xml file. I am trying to use the bold tag and noticed that it is not working. After a bit of searching the best I could come up with is "Flash CS4 tag in with htmlText". Bottom line: I have to embed an emboldened fontface.
As an example, let's say I want to use Tahoma. In my .fla file (using Flash CS4) I embed Tahoma and export it for use in actionscript. This lets me use Tahoma as a font in my textfield. If I try to use the b tag (textfield.htmlText="not bold, <b>bold</b>";) the bold text does not get emboldened. Based on the above question I have now embedded the Bold version of Tahoma as well.
How do I link the bold version of Tahoma with the regular version of Tahoma so that when using the bold tag I get bold text in my textfield?

In the Flash CS4 IDE, if you have Dynamic Text, you can apply a filter labeled Adjust Color which lets you change Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, and Hue. Can someone explain how to do that through Actionscript 3 instead of the IDE? I found a couple of old tutorials and followed them but can't get things working. Not sure if that filter is called ColorMatirx or ColorMatrixFilter or if those refer to something else entirely.

I'm trying to apply a padding to the top of my TextField instance in my Flash application, much like you would using CSS.
I haven't found any way to do this. You'd expect it to be a part of the TextFormat or StyleSheet classes, but it's in neither. I sort of found a workaround by adding htmlText to the top of the TextField with <br /><br /> in it, but adding entire lines of white space to the top isn't desirable.

Below is a code with my example. If you zoom in you'll notice that text is not as sharp as it is if you uncomment this line (txtFld.rotationZ = 90). Is there any way I can improve sharpness on font glyphs so after rotating they will look the same as before?

I have a question about textfields and I'm wondering if it is possible to change text styles of single words or lines within a textfield with actionscript.
I use an empty textfield and add my text to that field in actionscript with the following code: myTfield.text = "insert text here"
the text contains multiple lines and I want some of them to be bold, italic or a bigger font size. The reason why I am adding my text to my textfield this way is because I need the text in the textfield to change when some buttons are pressed. Text will be added or removed from the textfield if buttons are pressed by the user and the current way I'm changing the text is by simply re-using the code above with new text in it. (it makes the code quite long though, but I guess I'll have to deal with that) But because I'm adding text this way I am not sure how to change the style of different parts of the text.
On a related note, with CS5 there are now a number of options for textfields. There is TLF text and classic text. I've searched around for the differences but I don't find the awnsers very clear. What option should I use for my textfield if I want it to look sharp like the text I'm typing here (its just regular text, no headers or anything). Some options just give blurry text because of the anti-alias and some settings don't seem to change a thing. And at times embedding fonts looks nice but sometimes it makes it worse. There are so many options to choose from, but it is unclear what would work best for regular text. (my text won't animate, it does move with a scrollbar, but I only care about how it looks when the scrollbar is still)

I have an input text field, it's grey and italic - it says "Enter album name here". When it's clicked I want the text to go away, and change the style to black/unitalicized so the user can enter some text. Here is my event function that triggers on mouse up. The text format changes properly if I set the text to "hi", but *not* if I set the text to the empty string... Is this a bug? My experiences with Flash thus far have been far from impressive for such an expensive piece of software. Maybe I am overlooking something...

I have a textfield that acts as a log in that it routinely gets messages added to it. I want to limit the number of lines the textfield can display - that is, if the textfield exceeds a certain amount of lines, the oldest lines that were added are removed and the rest of the lines of text are shifted up. Basically I'm wondering if there is a cleaner way to do this, as my technique seems inefficient:
Code:
const MAX_LOG_LINES:int = 50;
// assuming parameter message is a string that ends in to add a line break.
function addText(message:String):void

When applying text formatting to a comboBox, the text formatting appears perfectly on the dropdown menu items but the textField text disappears.Removing the text formatting from the textField makes the textField text reappear but of course there is no text formatting.

on a project in Flash CS4 for Windows. I have an object on a layer that moves separately at different times of the animation (all one large motion tween). I'm attempting to apply an ease to just one leg of that motion, but instead, when I choose an ease setting in the motion editor, the ease is applied to the entire tween (so it affects the stationary frames too!). Is there a way to apply an ease to a single span of motion instead of the entire motion tween?Alternatively (if it's not possible), is there an easy workflow for breaking-up a motion tween in to separate motion tweens while maintaining the position of the object in between the motion tweens? (I don't want to use the frame-by-frame animation conversion option I've seen.)

I am using action script 3 and need to know how to apply more than 1 action to a frame label, ie; I have 5 pages of images and have actions coded as follows:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,play1);
function play1(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop("1Lrg");
[Code]....
code continues like this for all the buttons (84 thumbnail images), so they will open a larger image when clicked. So what I now need to do is connect the side navigation buttons to go to the relevant page (frame) when clicked...the problem I'm having is that it is causing duplications in the code ie; I now have, for instance thumbnail (btn4) calling frame 4, but I also need a side navigation button to call this frame.

I have a sprite called MaskSprite, and another sprite called PhotoSprite, with this relationship:
PhotoSprite.mask = MaskSprite;
Now MaskSprite contains a bunch of sprites as children...basically, what I have is a bunch of rectangles spaced apart, so that only strips of PhotoSprite are revealed. This works fine. But I want to blur each of these individual child sprites...but the revealed parts of PhotoSprite aren't blurred in any way. Isn't it as simple as:
Code:
for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++){
var s = new Sprite();
MaskSprite.addChild(s);
s.graphics.drawRect(etc etc etc);
s.filters = [new BlurFilter(10,10,1)];
