View 1 Repliesbest way to read in like 200k words and have them each tween from the center of the screen as small dots and tween up to the word filling the SWF then "fly through my head" not literally, but you probably get it...
View 2 RepliesI used to have a little text panel (that sat with the color, swatches, and align panels) that I was able to open up and edit text size, color, underline, etc with. It had a much better text editing ability then the properties panel, seeing as the properties panel does not even bother to allow me to underline text or to highlight and edit a single word in a whole text box. Now I don't have it, I can't find the damn thing anywhere, and I want it back. How can I get it?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to load different styles at run time. In my css files there is only description of the Application tag. If I point to the file in my mxml code: Code:<mx:Style source="name_of_the_file.css"/> it is working. The problem is that I don't know how to do this with as3. I have managed to load datawiththis:Code:StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations( 'name_of_the_file.swf' ); My question is how I can load not swf but .css file like in the example above.

View 0 RepliesI have never worked on flash - I used a developer to code a flash based webcam recorder that runs on red5 as backend. He provided me with the swf file and the source like mxml file.This recorder has 3 images and the total size of swf file is 800KB.Now when I load it on my production server - this page takes sometimes upto 10 secs to load. I'm completely lost as to what the reason is and not sure where to start debugging.I'm not sure if the problem is in the flash code or is it that red5 is taking a long time to establish the connection.
View 1 RepliesI have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?

I'm making a very simple news ticker that uses XML to load four items: copy text, an image, date and a URL. The script was pieced together from tutorials and a bit of self-teaching, so I know it's probably not great. The AS is pasted below. Everything loads just fine, but the button script returns an "undefined" error. I assume this is because the item is no longer found in the array, but I'm not entirely sure. I also think it may be that the loadMovie method isn't working well with a specific item in the array. Also the link does not work. *Note* I know there are probably more advanced ways to tackle this but I'd like to keep this at my learning level so I can grow with it. :-)

View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash 8 and I'm trying to load new text into a dynamic text box already populated by a xml file.
I have a home page with 5 different buttons on the top menu.
1. Home
2. News
3. Tips
and a few more.
Upon my home page loading, I have a dynamic text box with the welcome text which is populated by my xml file, here is my code for AS2:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.home = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0];
_root.tips = this.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes[0];
[Code].....
What I want to do is load the news and tips text into the same dynamic text box on the home page when the news or tips button is clicked, so I don't have to load a whole new swf for each category thus making the site faster.
What code would I have to use to clear the text from the xml file and how would I load my new text upon clicking the button?
I cant load and external text file into my dynamic text box...when i trace the loaded var it can be found, but when it's loaded inside the text box, the value that appears is really strange.i tried to load the vars into the MC and on a level, the result is the same, it can be traced but does not appear correctly on the textbox..the code i used is here..i made a text box with about_us instance name, loaded the variables and tried to load my text inside it by setting the text property of the textbox but as u will see...
loadVariables("about.txt", "this");
about_us.text = about;

am setting up a webpage with Flash MX. On the homepage I have a dynamic text box with links to the left (currently the links are just typed words). We want it to setup so that when a user clicks a link (such as "HOME") it will access text from a .txt file and load it into the dynamic text box. We want all of the links ("HOME", "PERSONNEL", "RECRUITS", "CONTACT US") to load their text from a seperate .txt file into that same dynamic text box.

I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?
I just want to load a .swf file withing my current .swf file as per the value the external text file.
I have done few experiments too.
1) I have writter below code on the first frame of my movie. here "myMC" is my target movie clip inside which i want to load another swf file.
loadVariables("myData.txt", "_root.myMC");
2) the code of my external text file is as below sm=one.swf;
Now my doubt is where and how i should write the loadmovie command to load my swf file.

I am working on a new project and we are trying to figure out if there is a way to convert .swf file to Word that a client can use since do not have Flash available to them. Not sure if this conversion would be usuable in Word but I am willing to try anything.
View 1 RepliesI have an ASP.Net handler which returns to me all the file name of the images present in a folder in the server. Note that I'm an ASP programmer, not a Flash developper. It'll return something like that:
1.jpg|2.jpg|3.jpg|4.jpg
It's the same as if it was written in a .txt file, there's only text in the "webpage" source. The | is the separator in which I'll use a method to return a [] of string. However, the problem is how do I access it.
