ActionScript 3.0 :: Delete The First Character In An Item In An Array
Apr 20, 2011How would I go about removing only the first character of an item in an array? All my items are strings, so for example I want to turn this:
pseudo code:
Array["01234","01234"]
to this:
Array["1234","1234"]
Or if that isn't possible, I could just turn each element into a string, modify it and re-Array it. The issue is using split(charAt(0)) isn't correct syntax. I just don't know what function to call and every search turns up only replacing specific characters, not character at a position.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Replacing Character Entities With Single Or Double Quotes?
Jul 12, 2007I've got some text coming in from a database. I get:
' " " instead of single and double quotes.
I'm not sure that all fonts even support left and right double quotation marks (?).
at any rate... is there a relatively simple way to resolve this? maybe scanning the strings for the character entities and replacing them with single or double quotes?
does anyone know if Flash can recognize the ASCII entity number (e.g. ') more readily than the ASCII entity name (e.g. &rsquo?? That may be a moot point as i would have to somehow convert/replace with the entity number anyways..

View 2 RepliesRemove Last Character From Textfield Without Destroying Textformat
Jan 3, 2011I have a problem where i want to remove the last character from a textfield (including linebreaks) that has multiple textformats without removing the formats.[code]...
i guess this doesn't remove linebreaks, and is very slow, seems to destroy my textformats.
or:
textfield.text = textfield.text.slice(0,-1);
this is faster but removes all textformats as well.

May 28, 2011SlideTitles.text is an input field. I want the user to enter the titles in in this format
slide one;;slide two;;slide three
Calling the slides whatever they want, and they can have as many as they want.
I need to able to split them values up and put them into a string array. (after they submit them)
so it would end up being myStringArray = ("slide one", "slide two", "slide three")
so far i'm failing. I did do a bit of searching around but couldn't find anyone doing this same thing.
I've tried myStringArray = (textfieldsxx)
and then setting the value of textfieldsxx to equal the slideTitles.text... but then it just ends up as 1 value in the array, no matter what format i write it in... i'm still a learner with arrays

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change The Style Of Single Words In A Textfield?
Jan 9, 2011I 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)
Professional :: TextField Character Encoding - " Displaying Instead Of @
Mar 17, 2010I have a webpage which is served as UTF-8 and has the following meta tag:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
I have an swf on the page which has some textfields on it each of which are just using arial for their font and no embedded fonts.
Now when someone types an @ into one of the textfields the " character is displayed instead, I thought this would be because my browser is set to ISO-8859-1 character encoding, but changing it UTF-8 and refreshing makes no difference.
Actionscript :: Control Size Of A TAB Character In A Flash / Flex TextField?
Mar 2, 2010I figured out how to get a TextField to maintain focus when the tab key is pressed (using an event listener on FocusEvent.KEY_FOCUS_CHANGE), but what I'd like to do is control the size of the tab character in the TextField so that it is equal to five spaces. (I would just insert five spaces when the tab key is pressed, however due to requirements this is not an option.) Is this possible?

Flex :: Combobox Backspace Or Delete Key Does Not Delete Highlighted Text
Mar 26, 2010I am implementing a flex auto-suggest combobox - as the user types in each character: Consider the string 'Stackoverflow' and user input = 'st'
1) the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 'st'
2) text is set to auto-suggest string such that the un-typed part is highlighted.
So for instance, the combobox text may contain st'ackoverflow', where 'ackoverflow' is highlighted using setSelectedIndex()When I hit back-space or delete, and check the 'this.text' value, I expect that the last un-highlighted character ('t' in the above case) gets deleted and the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 's'. However the text property contains 'st', as before
