CS3 Embedding Fonts Doesn't Work On Non-coded TextFields?
Apr 19, 2010I've got a couple of TextField initialized in code (as3). They use my embedded font (aharoni), and that just works. But the fonts that i've written directly into the movieclips in flash cs3, just don't work.
When i play the swf on another computer that doesn't have aharoni, the coded TextFields are aharoni, but the textFields in the movieclips that i've written directly are Times new Roman, because that computer doesn't have Aharoni.
I've set the text font to my embedded font.
Actionscript 3 :: Flash Cs5 - Embedded Fonts Not Appearing In Created Textfields?
Mar 22, 2012I would like to preface this wall of text by saying, I am very new at this. I may be missing something obvious. I'm working in Flash CS5 with Actionscript 3. I'm trying to use actionscript to create a textfield, and populate it with text. I've embedded my font in my project using the "Font Embedding" window. However, when the code to create the textfield is run, if "embedFont = true;", the font is invisible. The cursor still changes when hovering over it, so I know it's there. Or at least its text box is, I guess. Dynamic textfields with embedded text which are already on the stage seem to be unaffected.
I've tried changing the embedded fonts outline format, neither work. I've tried directly embedding the font with the "embed" tag via actionscript, but it doesn't seem to work with CS5, or I don't know what I'm doing. As you can see in the code provided, I've tried "registering" the font, with no success. I've tried using:

Mar 13, 2010so i want to have my dynamic text listed with a consistent space between each textfield. However, the textfields can have varying amounts of text, so just doing txt.y = t*40 would not cut it. I've tried getting txt.length to calculate how many lines it would be, but if i change the font size it changes everything.

Nov 9, 2010let's say you had a dynamic text field with a number (for example '30'). Everytime you click on a certain button / movie clip, that triggers an animation (so far no problem) AND adds '20' to the number in that textfield.
==> first click, the number displays 50 (30+20), second click 70 (50+20) ...
When you enter a certain keyframe and that number is higher than let's say 290, the movie jumps to frame x. If that number equals 290 or is lower than 290, the movie jumps to frame y.

Professional :: If Else Conditional Statements For Dynamic TextFields
Nov 29, 2010This is about a self assessment quiz.There will be four options and each one has a scale from1-5 i.e., "option a" has 1mark, "option b" has 2marks,"option c" has 3 marks, "option d" has 4marks and "option e" has 5 marks and we count the answered and we display the score for example if there are 20 question in it if they answered "option e" 5 times the score will be 25 and option d 5 times the score will be 20, and if "option c" for 5 times the score will be 15,and "option b" for 3 times the score will be 6 and "option a" two times the score will be 2, and we add up all the score and display in a dynamic text field called "score" and the total score is 68.
And I have another dynamic text field called "tsc" where I have to display the tags like excellent , good, better ......etc. Till now every thing is fine but I am unable to compare them it is displaying excellent even if i get 10 marks. If the score is greater than 55 "tsc" should display Excellent, if the score is greater than 41 or less than 55 "tsc" should display Best, if the score is greater than 26 or less than 40 "tsc" should display Better,if the score is none of the above "tsc" should display Poor.
This is my code on the submit button:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("sQ");
if (scor>=55) {
tsc = "Excellent";
} else if (scor == 41 && scor<=55) {
[Code] .....
Where:"sQ" is the frame name where i am displaying the score details"scor" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying total score"tsc" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying the tags llike good, Excellent, better, poor.....etc.

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Format Dynamic TextFields Globally
Sep 13, 2009In my project, several textField mclips are created dynamically. These mclips pull their content from an XML from.
The text is formatting partially using TextFormat, but I have been unsuccessful setting the font family.
I think this is because the content is dynamic and called from the XML.
In any case, I then tried to set the font family using mx.styles, but also with no luck:
import mx.styles.CSSStyleDeclaration;
var text_style:Object = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
_global.styles.myStyle = text_style;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic TextFields Does Not Display All Specified Word
Aug 19, 2010I make a dynamic textfield, specify it's instance, then assign it a string or variable with AC, but often the dynamic text will not display all the text or variables. For example, I say
warning.text = "Please do not enter more info than necessary.";
Yet what appears onscreen, is:
"lease do not enter more ino tan neesary."
This happens no matter how big I make the text area, or how small I make the text, so I don't get why it's not all viewed. (Btw When I copy from the textfield I do get all the text)

IDE :: Flash Kerning Dynamic Textfields Question?
Mar 2, 2011I'm having an issue with a particular font where, when using dynamic textFields the kerning is all out of whack. When using static textFields, it's fine, and when I check "Use Device Fonts" it's also fine, but when using dynamic textFields with embedded fonts, everything is jacked. The font is Blender Pro Bold. Regular and Heavy work fine, but for some reason Bold is messed up. Is it just that there is a problem with the font?
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Textfields That Read Xml-file?
Mar 24, 2011I have a project with 4 movie clips. Inside each clip there are dynamic textfields that read xml-file. My intention is to view each clip(alpha 100%) for 10-15secs at a time. My question is how can I view only the clips that have content in their xml?
Lets call the movie clips mc1-4. If I only have text to view in the first two mc's how do I construct some sort of IF structure:IF mc3 doesn't have content to view, view mc1 instead of it and then mc2 and so on.
All the movie clips read the same xml-file they just view different content from it. For example: mc1 reads 10 first nodes(with its childs), mc2 reads 11-20 and so on. That is why I want to know because it is stupid to show empty tables.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Update Dynamic Textfields From Xml At Runtime?
Aug 30, 2011Im having is that I cant update the information that I get from my XML file at runtime. I have some static textfields that updates just fine, but it�s the dynamic ones that don�t play nice.
The project is a small display that shows the amount of minutes that is left from the time set in the XML to the current time. I don�t want to bore you too much with the details of it all.
Heres the code! Right now though it doesnt update at all. Removed those bits of code since it got me nowhere

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mc Containing Only Dynamic Textfields Returns Width/height Of 0?
Jan 25, 2009I have mc1 which contains code to dynamically generate multiple textfields based on an xml file, but mc1 has nothing physically on its timeline. I want to make another mc, mc2, where its y location is relative to the height of mc1, but when I trace the height of mc1 it returns 0.
Is there any way to get a height based on however many textfields are dynamically loaded into mc1? The height will naturally be varying so I can't just create a variable for a constant height.

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Adding UIScrollBar Via FocusEvent To Dynamic TextFields
Nov 15, 2011I have a series of dynamic textfields added to the stage via this code:
ActionScript Code:
function addTextfields(){
initTextfields++;
var question:TextField = new TextField();...
question.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
quesTextArray.push(question);
addChild(question);
question.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, handleFocusIn);
question.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT, handleFocusOut);
}
Using FocusEvent, I want to add a UIScrollbar to that event.target TextField. Here's what I have (that's not working):
ActionScript Code:
function handleFocusIn(event:FocusEvent):void{
var mySb:UIScrollBar = new UIScrollBar();
mySb.direction = "vertical";
mySb.setSize(20, event.target.height);
mySb.move(event.target.width+event.target.x, event.target.y);
addChild(mySb);
trace(event.target);
mySb.scrollTarget = event.target;
}
My dilemma is with scrollTarget, I'm not sure what the actual target should be. I thought event.target would do the trick but I get a 1118: Implicit coercion error. When I trace event.target I get [object TextField] so I thought that's all I would need to do.
