Curious to know if anyone has found any open source AS3 Scrollbar components that work with the TextField much in the way the V2 components of the same names worked.
View 4 RepliesDoes this work? Has anyone ever tried it and been successful?

I want to make a textfield where I load my text in (via txt or xml?). Depending on how much text I load in the textfield, the textfield will get longer and Therefore the scrollbar will get smaller/bigger.

i want to add scrollbar to textfield using as3 code. can you give me advice or sample code.???please!!.

I made a custom scrollbar for a textfield that works like a charm... but in it's "alpha-state", it was only showing where the text was scrolled to (and how long the text is, by it's own height)- you couldn't actually click the scrollbar and drag it. So I added a little AS to the actual scrolling block MC that *should* work... and kind of does- but not like I think it logically should..?

I am loading some text from an XML file and plcaing it into dyncamically created TextField. But if the text is long, it doesn't comes automatically in next line and goes out of the screen. I I use Text Area, then it shows a scrollbar. How can I load text in such a manner that ir automatically comes to next line and doesn't even shows a scrollbar?
View 1 RepliesI have searched the internet and these forums for a easy to understand way to make a custome scroll bar for my dynamic text boxes. However I cannot find any, and this the code I have:
Var scrollupper:Number = ;var scrolllower:Number= ;
var textlower:Number= ;var textupper:Number= ;
var scrollRange:Number= scrolllower-scrollupper;var textRange:Number= textlower-textupper;

I would like to create a scrollbar for a dynamic textfield but do not want to use the common component. I found this script: [URL]. It seems very easy, but don't manage to have it work. And I don't understand how it manages the scrolling. it's only the 4 most essential lines I do not understand.
View 1 RepliesI am loading xml and using Colin Moock's scrollbar as he desrcibes it in Essential Actionscript 3.0. It all worked fine until I tried to put a link to a jpg inside the xml.Where other html tags give no problem, the img seems to mess with the textfield height. I gave the textfield a fixed height but when I try to scroll the field with the image, and trace the textfield height, it increases more and more when I scroll down, messing up the scrollbar.the img tag looks like this (and it loads fine into the textfield):
Code:
<IMG ALIGN= "left" SRC='pics/portret.jpg' WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="207" HSPACE='0' VSPACE='10' />
The slightly adapted scrollbar class looks like this (I gave the scrolltrack a fixed height and tried to give t.height a fixed height too within this class but tracing t.height keeps showing that it is increasing while scrolling down):
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.text.*;[code]..............
So I think that the code or flash doesn't handle the img very well,
I have a dynamic TextField set as input field. I listen for the FOCUS_IN and FOCUS_OUT events to enable black border and grey background when the user clicks on that text field and remove them when the text field loses its focus - when the user clicks on the stage or any other element.
That works perfect until I drag any of the Flash components on the stage. In order to lose the focus from the text filed I need to click on a component otherwise it won't work. It looks like components "steal" focus out event...
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.FocusEvent;
inputField_txt.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, onFocusIn);

I'm doing wrong here? I want to use a Blixt's scrollbar to scroll a dynamic textfield that's is set to a autosizing height.... And I'm having problems. I though I had finally found my perfect scrollbar.... it's so close!
View 2 Repliesif I drag a component out on the stage, and run, it will work. I can drag the sliders for example. But if I change the settings for the slider,and then run the movie, I will not be able to drag it.
View 9 RepliesI am currently creating an online portfolio using Slideshowpro [URL]. For some of my pictures I am using (external) captions from a XML file, inserted into a dynamic textfield. As some of the captions contain a lot of text I decided to add a UIScrollBar. However, when there is no text (no caption) available, I want the scrollbar to be hidden. Also if there is not enough text to warrant a scrollbar it would be great if it could be hidden!
Code below, note that "t_txt" is the instance name of my dynamic textfield:
import flash.text.TextField;
import net.slideshowpro.slideshowpro.*;
import fl.controls.UIScrollBar;
XML.ignoreWhitespace = true;
//remove scrollbar from stage, scrollbar component must be in library
var sbContent:UIScrollBar = new UIScrollBar();

When I open my .swf file with Flash, everything works great, but when I try to open it in a browser, it becomes blank, like there was not text to scroll, even though the text is displayed just fine. Even more odd is it that sometimes it works in IE if I open it locally, but not if I open it from the net...Tried to search the internet for a solution, but it doesn't seem like a common problem, which I would think it would be.My .swf file, with the text appended The page online The panel I need to scroll is in the News section.
View 1 RepliesI created a dynamic text box that links to a xml text document. I've also added the Scrollbar component to the text box. It scrolls fine in preview mode...but once I upload the file, the scroll bar becomes disabled.
View 1 RepliesI use AS3 which I keep separate from my fla project.
I have a contact page and the textfield where you type your message is an Input textfield with multiline and textwrap enabled. The height of my textfield allows for 5 lines of text, then you will have to start scrolling after that.
I use a my own scroll bar nested in a movieclip with instance name "txtScroller"
The Input textfield instance name is "messageText"
What I want to do: I want to hide the "txtScroller" mc and show it when the user has typed more than 5 lines of text (using enter to break to a new line, etc).
Now for my problem: The first part of the code works, the "txtScroller" mc is hidden, and I have even tested it with the trace function (see code bellow).
I can for the life of me NOT get the the second part to work, the part where i want to show "txtScroller" mc again. I've treid with the trace function as well but it shows nothing in the 'output' pannel (see code bellow).
The Code:
This is all I have with regards to hiding or showing the "txtScroller" mc.
Code:
if (messageText.numLines <= 5) {
trace("less");
txtScroller.visible = false;

I'm trying to have a scrollbar in my .fla for controlling images (put together in a movie clip) and viewing the different ones. The scrollbar component only seems to work with text boxes, and I can't find a decent tutorial on how to use scroll panes (or why I should) to save my life.It seems SO simple.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to utilize the Learning Interactions in the Library of Flash CS4 included in the Adobe E-Learning Suite.I'm able to change the individual componens' properties (radio button, submit button) etc. using the component inspector, but cannot determine how to change the properties of the movie clip for items such as correct answer, etc.Has anyone used these Learning Interaction library items, and knows how to update the components to work properly?
View 2 RepliesI have an FLV file, provided by the videographer. I put in a folder for the web. By looking at my other FLV files, they have support files included (a SWF for the skin, and a SWF for the player, along with an HTML page where it is embedded on).So, as this FLV file did not have these support files, I have copied and pasted the others to go with my new FLV. What else do I need to do to make it play on the HTML page on the web?I checked the code on the HTML page, and it merely calls up one of the SWFs so should be OK with that.Do I need the videographer to give me a FLA where the movie was imported to, or is this not necessary? I'm wondering if I need the FLA so that I can re-define the content path? Is this the only thing I need to get all components to work together and play in the browser?
