ActionScript 3.0 :: Input / Dynamic Output Between Frames
Dec 15, 2009
I have an assignment where we have to have part of our ecard accept input such as a user name and in another frame output the value as dynamic text. This was really easy in AS2 which is what we mostly learned in class. However I am almost done and it is all AS3 so far.
How do I take the value typed in an input box Push a submit button which takes me to another frame Output the value of that input?
If it matters my flow is kind of weird. Preloader. frame 1 Then i jump to say frame 100 for a sequence Back to frame 3 for a navigation / interactive area.
My code so far is :
stop();
var textInput:TextField = new TextField();
textInput.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
textInput.border = true;
[Code].....

the last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {

I have an input text box with the instance inputnameone. On another page I have a dynamic text box with the instance outputnameone. When I press button with the instance "submit", I want the information in inputnameone to go into output name one. From the basic as3 I've been able to learn I've written this actionscript:
submit.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, transfernameone);
function transfernameone(e:MouseEvent):void {
outputnameone.text = inputnameone.text;

Everything looks in order, all the variables are correct, the input text box is set to input - it just wont let you write in it. I even went into a blank project, created a rudimentary setup, with an input text box one frame and a button, with the simple script:
Actionscript Code:
outputName=inputName;
Setup a button that moved to the frame with the designated output dynamic text box, tested it, it worked. So I tried moving the input box to the program - will not work.... It does the same thing, cannot type in it. I tried moving the text box to a different frame, used the simpler script to output, made no difference.

I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?

I'm currently building a very basic flash application and i'm having trouble with one section of it. In this section I have an input box where the user enters their name and clicks an 'Enter' button. Clicking this button will take the user to the next section where I want their name to appear in a dynamic text box.The application works as far as getting to the next section but it doesn't display any input text in the output text box in the next section.
stop();
enterButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,update_output);
enterButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playSecTwo);

I am opening my mind to be lead down the path of the masters.I have created movie clips of hand drawn symbols; a1, b1, c1, a2, b2, c2...etc.I would like a text field to supply the input string, parse the string, then output the same string graphically with the MCs depending on a style (1 or 2).
ex: User inputs HELLO and selects style 2, on a button click a series of movieclips appears; h2,e2,l2,l2,o2.

Basically I want to recreate a sound installation that I made a couple of months ago which used Logic Express and a Tape Delay effect to take ambient sound captured by a mic, delay its output by 3 seconds, and then play it into the headphones. All without recording anything and in realtime.I've basically got this far, which lets me hear the mic input through my headphones loud and clear. Now all I want to do is apply a 3 second delay to the input before it outputs. Do I have to send the audio to a buffer where it can be constantly stored and rewritten?
Code:
//Create a new Microphone
var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();

I have an input text field in which the user enters text. This text is displayed in an output textfield. The user should have the option to change the color of a selection, This color should be applied to the selection in both the input and output textfield. After that the user should be able to further edit the text without loosing the fomatting.
But pictures say more than words so...
1. The user selects text and sets the color to yellow
2. The text color is set to yellow just like I want
3. This is the actual issue. When the text (in the input field) is edited all text in the ouput field goes black again That's not what I want, I want the colored text to stay colored when the input is edited.
This is my code:
Code:
txt_Input.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, fncOutput)
btn_Format.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fncFormat)
var tfmBlack:TextFormat = new TextFormat();

Please anybody provide suitable solution that how to add executable file in flex, that will accept input parameter and produce output.

I have an input text that goes over several frames. When you type a letter a different frame plays. For example A plays frame 2 , B play frame 3 etc. The problem is that the text that was written in the input text i want it to remain there and not disappear when i move to frame 2. How to i keep the text in the input text so that all what the user wrote is there every time. Basicly i need to remember what the user wrote from every frame.

I need to make a countdown. I set 6 Minutes as the Default time, but then i decided to make it editable, so i created another frame where the user can set the minutes.So I created a TextInput form (SetMinutes) and I tried various codes, but any of this worked. You are my last chance, i'm trying to figure out this problem from a month but it seems i can't find any solution.CODES:Frame1 Code

I have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

I have a dynamic text box with the instance name "output" and three buttons (btn_A, btn_B, btn_C). What I want is when you press a button the corresponding letter should appear in the text box. What I have so far is this:
Actionscript Code:
//btn_A:on (release) { ausgabe.text = "A";}
Works fine, but what do I have to do when I want to spell something, e.g. "ABC"?

So an array walks into a dynamic text field and says. I have an array that I am trying to output into a dynamic text field via this function:
Code:
Barcelona = ["Barcelona:", "Apple", "25 - ", "2"];
Output_Array = function(array_name) {
for(i=0; i<array_name.length; i++) {
output_txt.text += array_name[i]
output_txt.text += " "
}}
It outputs the array just fine, but what I want to do is add in a line break here and there to make it more beautiful. In the dynamic text field properties there is an option for "Render text as HTML". With the option checked I tried adding in <br> and/or <p> HTML tags but all it does is prints out the "<br>" instead of making a new line. (I also have the text field set to Multiline.) Is there anyway to get it to have a line break?

I have a movieclip (named "checklist")with a great number of input text boxes in it. This clip is used early in the my movie (frame 1) and again at frames 20 and 30. The problem is that in the later frames the information the user typed in the first frame is no longer there. Now I could use the var parameter and set it to _root for all of the boxes, but I've been told that the var parameter is a bad way to go. Rather, I should use the name option instead, i.e. "myText_txt". I tried experimenting with objects, but I am not a programmer and so I am probably doing this wrong.
[Code]....
So, I am looking for a best practice. Should I just use the var parameter? That way all of the text fields update when the movie hits frames 20 and 30.

I am somewhat new to Actionscipt and I need a bit of help. I have created a dynamic text box that is being fed from an xml file. Depending on the data (whether positive or negative), I would like the output text to either be green or red (green for positive, red for negative). I�m sure that has to be a condition statement written and applied to the object, but I do not know how to do.

I have a simple dynamic textfield with the variable name total_txt. Why am I getting an error with this code?
Code:
var myNum:Number = 0.00;
total_txt.text = myNum;
I'm assuming it's because the textfield is only wanting to read a string and not a number, but how do I output a number to a dynamic textfield?
