I want to change the color of many text fields at once. I created an array, then a for each loop where I datatype the var to a TextField. For some reason, Flash reads this variable as a String, so I can't change the text field's color.

var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
myLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("trees.txt"))
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onDataLoad)
[code]...
now what i am trying to do, and i am almost certain i am going the wrong way with this, is to add on rollover a button that corrosponds to the text the text will change color from black to red. meaning... if i rollover button_0 the text of tcname_0 with change to red , and if i rollover button_1 text in tcname_1 would change.. and so on. so here is what i did:
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
myLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("trees.txt"))
[code]...
2- if the loop works and doesnt break, i still have a problem of how to exactly pass the name of the text field that should be changed. right now i am hard coding it as tcname_2 to see if this even works but i would like it to somehow pass the button_x (x being the number) and use that x to change the corrosponding text i.e (tcname_x) .. is this even doable?

altough the color has changed according to the difference between the results of the first and the second trace the color did not actually change in the flash movie when played.the setTextFormat was replace with setting it directly since this did not even lead to a reported change of the textColor. the textfield is dynamically attached to a movie and is filled with text before i change the color.

I've tried several solutions to get this to work on a dynamically created text field. None of them get the job done.
The font I want to use (let's call it FancyFont) is in the library and does have actionscript linkage. It is exported in Frame 1.
Approach 1: Using CSS:
Since I would like to ultimately be able to change the string dynamically, I'm not loading from an external file.
Code:
var styleString="body{font-weight:bold; font-family:FancyFont;} .red {color:#cc0000}"
var style:StyleSheet=new StyleSheet();

View 1 RepliesI am looking to change the background color of a input textField when the user selects that testfield to start populating it. I have done a bunch of searching and I keep coming up with this type of answer...
Code:
myTextField.onSetFocus = Set(evt:Event){
// Change color
}
Problems...
1) Is onSetFocus/onKillFocus still available? From what I can tell it is not.
2) I have my text objects encapsulasted in a class so I do not believe I am able to do it like I have been suggested.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to create buttons that will replace the text in a text field.The text field is "Staff_Copy".The buttons are "Staff_Saam_btn", "Staff_Nicolas_btn", "Staff_David_btn", and "Staff_Anthony_btn".
//Code in frame 1 of timeline
var Staff_Copy_Value:Number = 0;[code]................
This doesn't work.Whatever the initial value of the variable "Staff_Copy_Value" is will determine the text in the field.So if I use the value 0 as in the above, whatever is in the textfield on the stage shows.If I use 1,2,3, or 4 then the text strings in the defined variables shows up.What am I missing.I am assuming it is has to do with the onEnterFrame command.How do I make the movie keep checking the value of "Staff_Copy_Value"?

Is it possible to change the focusRect color for TextFields that are tab enabled? The project I'm working on doesn't use any flash components and I'd like to be able to modify this color to work within the color pallete provided by the client. I've looked into the InteractiveObject, DisplayObject, and StyleManager classes but nothing jumps out a me as far as being able to modify the base Yellow color.
I would think something like this would work but...
var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
myTextField.tabEnabled = true;
myTextField.focusRect = true;
myTextField.focusRect.color = 0xFFFF00;
