ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotating Container Makes Text Disappear
Aug 7, 2008
I am trying to apply a transition to one of my forms. It seems like everything works fine except for the text disappears when I apply transitions like rotating.
I did a google search and saw that I have to embed fonts but I wasn't able to get it working.
I tried:
Code:
var myFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.font = myEmbeddedFont.fontName;
myFormat.size = 12; // the same size as the embedded font
[Code].....

When applying text formatting to a comboBox, the text formatting appears perfectly on the dropdown menu items but the textField text disappears.Removing the text formatting from the textField makes the textField text reappear but of course there is no text formatting.
Is there a trick to this.

I have the following code:
Code:
this.createTextField ("imageText",2,95,0,390,96);
imageText.multiline = true;
imageText.wordWrap = true;[code].....
The problem:If I uncomment either of the imageText.embedFonts lines, my text will disappear... but the trace(imageText.text); will still return the correct contents. It's as though embedFonts causes the textField to disappear.Possibly related, (but maybe not), is the fact that the vertical positioning of the font is off. Even though I create the textField at Y = 0, the text writes somewhere around Y = 10. I suspect this is something else, but I thought I'd add it just in case.

I have a dynamic textbox, left justified, characters embedded, set on whole pixel x and y, 266 wide and 310 high. I then made that into a movieclip with registration at the center. I then use code to flip it on the Y axis. The text is clear before the first flip when you test the movie. Flipped 180 on the Y axis so that it is backwards it is fuzzy. Flip it 180 again so it is back in its starting position it is still fuzzy. I have tried doing it without code, just flip by entering a value in the transform panel for the Y axis, it still goes fuzzy.
I need the text on the backside of my panel to be clear. go here to see the full panel in action [URL] click through to "work" on the menu. I am attaching a very simple FLA with a flipping textbox mc and a plain textbox on stage to show how the text should look

I have this script on a specific frame and when this frame is called it should load an external movie into a mc that I have on my stage. The mc is named as holder and thumbURL down there is a vatiable which holds the name of the swf I'm trying to load into the holder.
My problem is that the mc dissappears when I try to load this new swf into it. Could it be something with relative/static paths?
onEnterFrame = function(){
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var mclL:Object = new Object();

i have some dynamically created symbols populating the stage through external packages. they show up on the swf fine.i add some different symbols to the timeline. everything still shows up fine.i turn one of the above timeline symbols into a mask, and ALL the dynamic symbols disappear on the published swf. I need to have a mask for some of the interaction I want to do.. but i obviously can't have it make everything else disappear! what's going on here?

I'm creating a simple liquid flash site layout with one MC that does not scale and remains at a constant position, and one mc that should stretch to fit either the height or width (whichever's larger) of the stage, but scale proportionally. [code]...

I dinamically build a menu: this menu is made up of two nested MovieClips:
externalContainer_mc;
itemsContainer_mc (inside externalContainer_mc at 0,0);
itemsContainer loads a dinamic number of MenuItems: they are library objects (extending the MovieClip class).Anything works just fine, but if, when anything is loaded, I put a mask (itemsContainer_mc.mask=my_mask) upon itemsContainer, every MenuItem disappears AND it isn't even clickable anymore. What happens?

I've created a jQuery plug-in that allows a selected panel of a web page to be pinned to the top of the browser view-port when the user scrolls a long page after passing a particular horizontal point on the page.When the panel is pinned or unpinned, a strange thing occurs: if a Flash SWF object is present as a descendant element of the container, the Flash object either restarts its animation or disappears completely.The pin or unpin change occurs when the CSS property "position" switches between fixed, absolute and static. This forces Firefox to redraw its elements and it causes the <object> to reload and reanimate the Flash movie. I read this post with interest:URL...
Does anyone know of a workaround that prevents the <object> tag from reloading? I admit the Flash is an ad, but this problem only occurs in Firefox. Although there are suggestions that this may be a bug, I have searched without success and I'm scratching my pate with a deadline fast approaching.

here's my code (I'll explain in a second):
[Code]....
Code: - CA:true - TC:0 - CA:true - 1 - TC:1There's no logic in that! The output proves that both parts of the array are true. And yet, the "if" statement only activates once!

Im trying to set some text using a TLF text inside Flash CS5. I create a TLF text inside a movieclip, to later access and modify that text at runtime, the problem is, when I load the symbol of the movieclip from Flash Builder, it says that it cant be found, If I delete the TLF text, and publish it again, it works ok... I have no compilation errors.
What cuould be the issue?, doesn't matter if I assign an instance name to the text or not, as soon as I place the TLF text there, my main swf's symbol cant be found..

I have a movieclip with dynamic text fields and images, when I add 3D animation to my movieclip it makes my dynamic text and dynamic images slightly blurry. Is there a way to fix this? I'm not using papervision or any 3rd party library I'm using the Flash API.

I created a little flash header for my works website, a demo can be viewed by visiting [URL]
I noticed that if you highlight the text with your mouse multiple times really fast, the text will sometimes dissapear. whats up with that?
You have to be fast in order to initiate this bug, click and highlight and do it multiple times really fast.
They are dynamic textfields of type TextField.

how i can have a text in a testfied disappear after say 5 sec or so. the thing is i have displayed a file for visiters to download and have handled the SELECT EVENT, CANCEL EVENT, PROGRESS EVENT COMPLETE EVENT AND IOERROR EVENT OF THE FILE REFERENCE in one dynamic text field which is all working alright but the last message stays in the text field which is what i want to get rid of after a few seconds.
I tried to use transitions and timer to do it but i can't get my head round it.

does anyone know how to make the initial text in an input text box disappear once your cursor changes from the arrow to the type cursor? For example, I have an input text box which has the text visible saying "enter your email address here" I want this text to disappear automatically when the user goes to type something there...

I have a dynamic textfield which seems normal with the text I set by Flash IDE, but it disappears when I change it's text property, programmatically.Except if I set the textfield to use no anti-aliasing (Bitmap text [no anti-alias]);
I don't know why that's happening, maybe it's because the font I'm using, (it's the Helvetica Neue, Black Condensed) or it is some Flash CS5 Bug.[code]...

Why would this happen?
I've added Helvetica to my Library. I've set it to export for Actionscript. I've given it the name 'Helvetica'. I'm setting the defaultTextFormat. Then I tell it to embedFonts, and the bloody textfield doesn't show up.
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
tf.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat('Helvetica Neue', 13, 0xFFFFFF);
tf.embedFonts = true;

I have a FLA file that when I open it and I rollover any title in a palette window all the text in that and every window disappears. For instance the title "Timeline" will vanish. And most of the text in the palette vanishes, for instance all the text in the properties panel disappears like "Position and Size". This does not occur with any of my many other FLA files. I have had some issues with fonts lately. After deleting some bad fonts, my FLA ask me to remap some fonts, which I do. Everything in the FLA appears to be working fine.

I have an InputText field for users to submit information to me. I want to have the text field display some default text (Ex. Type E-Mail Here) and then when the field is clicked, the text will be cleared. After a long time of searching a found a solution that works perfectly....using ActionScript 2.0. Unfortunately my site is in 3.0 therefore I cannot use this code. For the example I want my default text to be "Type E-Mail Here", and the InputText Instance Name will be "inputTxt"
Here is the 2.0 ActionScript Code:
inputTxt.textField = "Type E-Mail Here..."
inputTxt.onSetFocus = function() {
inputTxt.textField = "" };
inputTxt.onKillFocus = function() {
inputTxt.textField = "Type E-Mail Here..."
};
When using this code in AS3, I get the error code "1120: Access of undefined property inputTxt". What do I need to make this code work in AS3?
