I have few text fields with htmlText links (<a href>) in a scrollPane. The problem is that when jthe page loads for the first time in IE (both 6 and 7), fI have to double click the links to make them work properly. However after that a single ckick works fine. I can understand the problem that the scrollpane is not getting the focus
So i have a scrollpane with a movieclip in it. Inside the movieclip i put static text that says "Email Eric" and linked it with mailto:sales@signsetconline.com but when i test the movie it won't work. So basically i need to know how to link an email to something inside a scrollpane.
Is it possible to create anchor links in text within a scrollpane. I created text with a list of questions at the top of the list and answers at the bottom of the list. I want to be able to click on a question and jump down the list to the answer within the scrollpane. Similar to anchor links in html.
I have a MovieClip inside a ScrollPane. Inside this MovieClip i have buttons. What i want to know is: how to click a button inside a Movie Clip, that is inside a scrollpane, and make it load a swf outside the scrollpane?
I loaded a swf into a scrollpane as scrollpanes go. The only difference is that the dynamically generated textfield in the loaded swf did not come out at all while the pic in the loaded swf did.
I've posted my code for the scrollpane and also for the swf being loaded:
SWF to be loaded
Code: var a:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("loaded", 100); loaded.createTextField("mytf", 101, 0, 0, 100, 100); loaded.mytf.text = "This text should come out."; //this doesn't come out
I have a problem & a question with the following;I have an image(which is a table and some dynamic text) in a ScrollPane.Everything works and scrolls except the text which goes out of the scroll area.It only works when the text is static,
I need to put a long static text inside a scrollPane? I've got a custom font embed. When I enable "Anti-alias for readability" the text looks wired (overlaps) in the scrollPane. But when I change it to "Use device fonts" the static text shows fine. How can I overcome this? Basically I need to have a long paragraph inside a scrollPane with a custom font.
I've been trying to change text in a textfield on a scrollpane dynamically without embedding fonts. However, the text doesn't show up at all. I tried using device fonts but still nothing.
I have RSS reader it's work fine with english but the problem is arabic text don't display in RSS reader just english and about to display arabic text in ScrollPane component that component reader info from xml file and display it?
I have a dynamic text field which is loading images from an external html. This text is named scrollPaneImage and is a child of a movieClip called scrollPaneContent. I then load scrollPaneContent into a scroll pane named scrollPane
When the user interacts with my swf different images are loaded into scrollPaneImage. Since some of the images take a few seconds to load, I'd like there to be a progress loader displayed in the scrollpane.
I have tried adding the progress event listner to the dynamic text, the movie clip and the scrollpane and cannot get it to respond or track the loading.
scrollPaneContent.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,reportProgress); function reportProgress(e:ProgressEvent):void { trace(e.bytesLoaded + " loaded out of " + e.bytesTotal); trace("LOADED"); }
I dowloaded and played with the following scroller on this site... [URL] I see where the text is under Actions but I'm wondering if I can input hyperlinks and email links as well or will I only be able to use this with plain text. If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link. Sorry, I don't know much about flash and just trying to make a simple text box with scrolling capability that will allow hyperlinks, bold, etc...
I have an AS3 flash movie and each page is a new frame. On my pages are dynamic scrollable text boxes that I created with the text tool. I would like to be able to make a piece of text a link (ex. click here for prices) so that it will direct the view to another page (label). I cannot figure out how to do so.
I'm having a little trouble using URL links in text. If I select a part of the text and give it a URL link (I'm using mailto: links here), strange things are happening to all the text in that text box at runtime in some cases the leading changes, other times some or all of the text disappears. But it only happens at runtime, so I have no way of knowing if or how to compensate. And simply removing the offending link or linked text doesn't fix the problem once the link has been created the only way to fix it is to create a new text box with no links.
In my movie I now load external text. But I want words in the external text to trigger my swf's. How do I do it? Since working on a mac I use BBEdit. Should I use html?
I found this awsome tutorial to create an animated button on this page [URL]. Everything works fine, but now I want to link the button to a frame with text in it called "text" in scene 1. So I tried it instead of
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 play around with templates and try to change them. A friend of mine has this banner and I am stumped on it. All it is, is making text into links. I have never had a problem with that before. I have CS4 but save the file as CS3. Because that is what he has. What my problem is the text at the upper right. Where there is 3 lines of text. I have been trying to add a link to each one and it is not working. In the actions script, this is what is says. I know I need to put the get(url) in there but everytime I do it, it is not correct. I am a n00b, I admit it.[URL]
I am wondering how to "link" any sort of text file (.txt or .doc) to a dynamic text box where once the swf file is played the text shows up. In all of the examples I have seen on here you have had to hit a button to load the info once the swf is loaded.
For a portfolio site, I have descriptive blurbs dynamically loaded from an external text file. In those blurbs is an option to "launch the site", which works great. Flash looks at:
and understands the html.However, in another section I'm trying to "launch" a swf into a regular old Flash level or MC (not an html window).How would I write that kind of link into the blurb?

I've build a simple twitter feed flash application that uses php script to read the latest tweet from xml and returns the string to flash to be displayed in a text box.
If I have static text and I have converted one line within the text to an active email link...can I indicate a subject line also in the Properties, under Options --> Link?
Like: mailto:emailme@emailme.com?subject=My Subject Line Here
Can this be done in that panel? If not, how do I do that?
Also, how can I change this email line to rollover to a different text color on hover, without separating it out as a button graphic?
How would I go about making diagonal link like this one.I drew a retangle so that my text would fit in, select both text and rectangle, F8 turn into button,then I turn them 45degree. When hover the text change color the way I want, but the problem is that the button enters the hover state way too soon when my mouse isnt over the rectangle yet.Seems like as long as my mouse falls within x and y coordinates of the text then it goes into hover state.For example my mouse is under the diagonal box, not in yet, but right under the text and it would go into hover state.
On a current project, my client asked if there is a way to create a link from text which has been imported via XML to another part of the swf. In other words, when the text is clicked, it executes some code.The only way I can think of is to create a url which would reopen the page displaying the swf and pass a parameter which would navigate to the specified section.
