ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Box - Keeping TextField Populated?

Mar 10, 2009

I have an input box where a user enters in a temperature in Celsius and a dynamic text box where the converted Fahrenheit value appears. All is working well, but I want to keep the user's entered Celsius number constant in the input box and not disappear; that way they can't forget the original number they entered to get the conversion.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keeping Focus On Textfield Type Input

Feb 24, 2009

On my stage I have an MC with a textfield of type input. I have another MC on stage with the control for the input like bold, and italic. When my textfield has focus and I click on one of the control MC buttons it loses focus. I know I can reset focus with stage.focus but wanted to know if there is a better way. Like disable the control MC from taking the focus off the input text. I thought this was not the behavior. I thought that only another input type control can steal focus until now.

IDE :: Formatting TextField Populated From XML?

May 14, 2009

I am populating the text of text fields with data from an XML file. I would like to do two things.
The code looks like this:

PHP Code:

DSGbox.textFirstName.htmlText = xmlDSG.name.first;    DSGbox.textLastName.htmlText = xmlDSG.name.last; 

First, I would like to format the text... bold, font size, etc...Second, I would like to concatenate the first and last name to appear on the same line without space in between caused by two text fields. I tried the following, but it didn't work.

PHP Code:

DSGbox.textFirstName.htmlText = xmlDSG.name.first + xmlDSG.name.last;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Making A Multidimensional Vector That Was Populated By Other Vectors That Are Populated By Strings?

May 31, 2011

I tried making a multidimensional Vector that was populated by other Vectors that are populated by Strings.

ActionScript Code:
var myVect:Vector = new Vector.<Vector>;
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
myVect[i] = new Vector.<String>;
}

This is giving me a Type Coercion error, even though the Vectors all have the correct object types in them. Is the error because I'm putting a Vector full of Strings into another Vector?Also, I'm working with large amounts of data, so using Arrays aren't an option because I need all the performance I can get.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Textfield Not Working?

Dec 23, 2009

The default value text displays, but when you click into them to type nothing appears.I've tried embedding fonts, making sure I use th Font class, even setting them to _sans and system font, but nothing. Totally at my ropes end before I wind up re-writing most of this thing.These really should be TextInputs, I know, but this is some other f*cker's crap work I'm cleaning up and I don't feel like refactoring the rest of his garbage.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Textfield Won't Accept Certain Input

Jun 21, 2010

I'm having a weird problem with AS3/CS5: I have a textfield, and I'm playing around with focusing on it at various points. At one point,I set focus to the textfield (which only accepts 1 character), then add an Event.CHANGE listener to it. This works fine, except when I type the letter 'a' (or 'A'). Nothing happens until I click on the text field and type 'a.' I don't have to do the second click with any other character, and before I do the second click, the cursor is blinking in the box. Not sure what to do...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Set Text Input To TextField?

Nov 30, 2010

What I'm trying to do is pretty simple, I'm just getting lost in the syntax of it..I have a piece of code that loads a textfield to the stage and sets it to "Testing Adding Text To Stage Dynamically"on the stage I have a text input box named t1input And a button next_btn

What I am wanting to happen is to have the text automatically load into the text field that is set in the code ("Testing Adding Text To Stage Dynamically") And then have it where the user can type into the text box, press the "next" button and then the text in the text field is changed to be whatever the user has typed in the text box.[code]...

ActionScript 2.0 :: <FMX> Textfield Input To GotoAndPlay?

Jun 11, 2004

So far I am able to communicate with just text between a few people, but they are not able to perform other actions such as the movement of their mouth when they are speaking which is what I would like also. I've included an attachment of what I have so far (it was given to me by a member at the official macromedia flash forums),

Actionscript 3 :: Set The Focus Of A Input-TextField Without Having A Stagereference?

May 9, 2011

I got a text-InputField:

var textfield:TextField = new TextField();
textfield.text = "";
textfield.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
addChild(textfield);

because this textfield don't reside in the main-class, I don't have a stage-reference for doing:

textfield.stage.focus = textfield;
or
stage.focus = textfield

How can I force the textfield to display the blinking line at position zero?

Iphone :: Flash IOS Textfield Input AutoSize?

Oct 21, 2011

I want the width and height from the textfield to be set automatically. But if I use:

textField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.RIGHT;

It runs perfectly on the computer. But if I transfer the app to my iPhone and I test it, the textfield turns in the size of one character so the rest I'm typing scrolls out of the textfield area. It's pretty hard to explain what happens, but it just looks like it doesn't set the height and width the right way. And even if I use the

textField.scrollV = 0;

it keeps scrolling.

ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField (input) Not Possible To Type In Certain Chars

Sep 28, 2009

We got some complaints from users not being able to type in certain chars like '@' and '.' in an input field (textfield). The Textfield is an input field type:
Font embedding seems fine (all needed chars are selected + '@' and '.')
Textfield restrict property is set: "a-zA-Z0-9@.\_\-"

Still some users complain not being able to type a '@' or '.' I've googled and searched the forum and the only thing I've found that could cause this was the wmode = 'opaque' property. We need to set this property to show up Facebook Connect windows. Otherwise these windows would get behind the Flash object in the HTML page. Another reason could be related to the regional settings of the keyboard, which might be faulty interpreted by Flash. Or could it simply be related to a faulty restrict (regex) property?
