ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Text And EventListener On Stage
Nov 5, 2008
Text is placed on stage dynamically with a MouseEvent. This is functioning correctly. I want to create a tween for the text once it displayed using the same MouseEvent but can't get it to
work.
Here's a sample of what I have (Bold is what is not functioning) :
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, buttonsEffect);
function buttonsEffect(evt:MouseEvent):void {
evt.target.alpha=1.0;
if(evt.target == D) {
sndD.play();

Before someone tells me that I should have searched the forum before posting an easy question like this one probably is that has already been posted and responded to a hundred times, I did try to search but I kept getting an error page saying something is wrong with the site. So anyways, what I am trying to do is have a text box display the number 100. Then there are two buttons. When one is hit, the number bisects between itself and last number lower than it displayed, when the other is hit it bisects between itself and the last number larger than it displayed. For instance, hitting the first button will change the value to 50 then when hit again to 25. If you then hit the second button it goes to 37.5 and then hit that button again it goes to 43.75. I have the following code:
var ce:Number=100;
ce0_txt.text=String(ce);
ce0left_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bisectdown);

I have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?

I've got as far as adding multiple buttons to the stage with AS3 and giving them unique instance names, but now I have a problem. There is no limit on the amount of buttons that could be present, there could be one or one hundred so I can't hard code.
How would I go about creating event listeners for each button? I tried pushing each instance name into an array then looping through but that gave me an error about how the buttons didn't exist, so it can't listen.

I have the following code:
Code:
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, select);
function select(evt:MouseEvent):void {
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, unselect);
} function unselect(evt:MouseEvent):void {
removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, unselect);
}
The idea is to be able to select the "btn" sprite and while it is selected you can click anywhere on stage to deselect it. I thought this would work but somehow after a single mouse click it also executes the unselect function. Since I add this function after the mouseclick I do not understand why it is doing this. Is this not the way to do such a thing?

I have a DynamicText movie clip call mcShotsText. In my .as file I'm creating an instance via:
private var _mcShotsText:MovieClip;
_mcShotsText = new mcShotsText();
_mcShotsText.x = 300;
_mcShotsText.y = 300;
addChild(_mcShotsText);
If I make the symbol so that it starts with text, it displays that fine. I want to alter it in code throughout the course of the game. I was hoping this would work:
_mcShotsText.text = "I am a cample";

I'm facing problem regarding dynamic texts. My dynamic text is placed on the stage and instantiated. I'm setting the text value in AS by using textname.text = smthing... Initially it was showing the correct result on testing the movie clip.. But after few runs it started showing garbage values... When i traced the value, trace showed the correct result but not displayed properly on the dynamic text..I then deleted and recreated the texts.. After some trials od deleting and reinserting it started working fine.. But soon the problem creeped in.

I have some dynamic text in an swf, that sits in an html doc, with the width & height set to 100%, in order to have the swf scale depending on screen size.Everything works really well apart from a dynamic text field (which pulls in slide numbers) which disappears or reappears depending on the size of the window or when the window is resized.

Short version : Im confused on the difference between the two when accessing something on the stage from a package. Longer version: I passed in a ref to the stage to the constructor on a class, and was unable to use it to access a dynamic text on stage. I pass in this instead and am able to access it.

I've been working on this all day. All I need is the font to be able to be both bold and regular in one string. However, while the string is being written on screen once it hits the bold tag (I have the string writing into a htmlText textarea) everything becomes bold. I can't seem how to figure out how to get it both bold and regular. Ive tired embedding via AS and from the stage using dynamic text. Nothing has worked.

I was wondering if there is a way to auto resize the swf to fit a dynamic text field. I am doing a site and have text coming in from XML. some of the pages have a couple paragraphs where as some are much longer so when it is published the pages that have more text gets cut off.

I am trying to add an eventlistener to the stage to respond to a resizing. When doing so i want to keep the relative position of a movieclip-object constant to the upper and leftmost edges, without changing the alignmode of the stage to top left. This can be achieved as shown below - examplified with two classes and reference to fla implied. The problem is now: When supplying the crucial statements with a Math.round, the movieclip-object gets displaced pixelwise with each new resizing:
myMovieClip.x -= Math.round((deltaX / 2));
myMovieClip.y -= Math.round((deltaY / 2));
Whereas the solution without Math.round is rock stable so it doesn't move at all, as it is not supposed to either! Can anyone figure out why? I know it's a luxury-problem, as my use case is solved. The problem is that i don't know why? Shouldn't the use of Math.round just assure the int-value? Such a small issue could easily spoil the whole app! And i fear that i have misunderstood something fundamental in as3, and suddenly become unpleasantly surprised.

I have been looking around for a long time to find a way to create a dynamic text field added to stage using as3 that is arched.I have seen this done in other sites but have had a hard time figuring out. Does anyone know of a component other than Text2Curve that is available? Has anyone already written something that arches a textfield that they would share?Arched text in flash seems to be impossible.

I am using a gallery written in AS3.0 called SlicedCubeGallery. It used Flex to publish the gallery.I can edit the functions for the SlicedCubeGallery, and the one I am targeting is the one that swaps the images (which I have running on a timer).I am loading the whole gallery SWF onto my stage using this code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("slicedCubeGallery.swf");
cubeGallery_mc.load(request);

I'm trying to access a text input that I've already placed on the stage (inside a movie clip) but with no luck.I've defined an instance name for this dynamic text field which is currentUserCount.I've got something like this set up in the document class actionscript file:
package {
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;[code].......
What am I missing? When I run this I get:
1120: Access of undefined property currentUserCount.
1120: Access of undefined property movieClipName.
1119: Access of possibly undefined property movieClipName through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.
1120: Access of undefined property currentUserCount.

I made an swf to demonstrate the problem and you can try it here: [URL] But this is the problem: I have an input textfield (type input) and output textfield (dynamic not selectable) and eventlisteners on the input fields. It seems like the TLF does not register the enter-key. Try it for yourself via the link above.My code is:

I'm relatively new to Actionscript, in fact, I just figured out today how to load text from an external source. I have another issue that I'm not sure how to handle. I have buttons for my main nav, a main text box, and a mini text box (both text boxes are loaded dynamically from external files). I want to have the mini text box load new external text files in the main text box. For instance, I have a button for music, which loads a list of songs in the mini text box. I want to be able to click on the name of one of the songs and have it load the lyrics in the main text box. I'm sure it's simple, I'm just new.

Problem: I am trying to get a very simple text resize going, for my main content area in a flash website. My aim is to get a button, that on click, increases the text size of a dynamic text field.

This is what I tried, I am very new to Action Script, so excuse the futility of my code.
