View 1 RepliesI am looking for a flipbook that I can use inside of flash, whether a component or not I suppose;
in the past, the flipbook that I have used depends upon html/js;
also, the flipbook should be able to load .swf pages
I have a flipbook that I'm making and I'm having some problems getting rid of a certain keyListener... Here's the dealio.. This is the trouble-maker script that's on frame 3:
stop();
Key.removeListener(keyListener_n)
keyListener_np = new Object();
var repeatTest;
keyListener_np.onKeyDown = function(){
[Code] .....
change the dimensions of this flipbook, what parameters i'd have to change in order to change horizontal and or vertical size.
View 1 RepliesIn a "container" movie I have an imported swf flipbook from indesign that needs some buttons to move through pages. I can control it with a simple nextFrame() and prevFrame() but this is done without the page curling/turning effect. Does anybody know which as3 command(s) or function(s) calls the turning effect like when clicked at corner of pages?
View 2 RepliesI am creating a flipbook application for a magazine. I am using Flash CS4(AS3) to build a navigation interface which contains a UILoader that loads magazine pages in SWF format created by InDesign CS5.Initially I was loading one large SWF file for the magazine pages. Internal links on the table of contents worked great but the load time was ridiculous. Now I am loading individual SWF files for each spread (adjacent pages) and the load time is great, however the links on the table of contents no longer work, which I expected.
The links still appear to be on the page however they don't appear to do anything. I have managed to interrogate the display list objects within the SWF file and the links appear to be of SimpleButton type. Some are even recognized as having HTML significance, they are given an instance name of "Hlnk#" instead of just "Instance#".I think my problem is that I can't/don't know how to get to the event that is triggered by the link/SimpleButton object. If I could see what page it is referencing I could load it.
I have recently purchased Pageflip 3.6 (http://pageflip.hu/) for a project at work and what I am planning on doing is implementing a guest book which i have created in flash.The guest book I created consists of a file upload (for images) a comment entry and a signature section (where the user has a choice between a bunch of fonts and writes there name) which are located on the left page of the flip book and then on the right page it displays the post (using XML).
Now the guest book on its own works like a charm, but when it is called into Pageflip the buttons for the upload/submit stop working and nothing happens.The way Pageflip pulls in the swf/png/jpg to fill its content is through an XML file.Pageflip does have hot spots and controls to switch pages directly within the book but I have disabled them so that you can only switch pages through the control bar, as I thought the hot spots were conflicting with the input for the guest book but it didn't do anything it still will not allow me to use the controls for the guest book.
I know this might be kind of confusing I hope i described my problem clearly enough and any help or input at all would be fantastic. I'm fairly green with actionscript but i'm the only one at my agency that knows how to use it so its tough on me to do these advanced things without anyone to bounce ideas off of
I'm interested in coming up with a flipbook which turn to another page, with a "turn page" animation. Exacly like what they did for Fullerton, at this URL...I got a great reply from JCS (thanx again dude!), who passed me a fla where they came out with a flip book, but you'll have to manually drag the page frm one page to another. Technically this flip book is more superior, as the user can flip the book manually, and it looks very very cool, but the thing is, there doens't seem to be a way to flip all the way to the last page withouth going through all the pages in between, and that sucks, as imagine that the document has like 50 pages!. BTW, the file in JCS sent can be downloaded here.URL...So basically, I want to modify the script to enable the the page to turn automatically when clicked, instead of having to drag the page.
View 11 RepliesYou know those paper flipbooks you would have as a kid where you would flip the pages and it would like like a moving image? How cartoons are made? I need to make that on the computer. I have a series of jpeg that I want to cycle one after another every second or so.
View 3 RepliesI want to create Flipbook in flex/Flash. Normally its created via XML and XML has some image or swf list it is loading as page in flipbook. But I want to create this functionality directly from the PDF file. Just developer need to give only PDF file name/path flip book will generate automatically.
View 2 RepliesI've created a flipbook in Flash. It pretty much looks the way I want it to except for one thing. On the 3rd and 4th page I've created a spread where it has have a movieclip playing inside the pages. It plays fine but everytime you're about to flip to the next or previous page it keeps playing the animation inside the page. Obviously I only want it to play once. Even though I put a 'stop' function inside the movieclip it still loops the animation. It looks like I have to set a function at the top level so it disables the movieclip after the first page-flip. Is this possible? Or is there another way that I can make the animation stop looping when about to flip pages? I could only attach the actionscript in word doc as the fla and swf where too big to attach. If you're happy to look into it I can email it to you.
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 still using flash MX. I'm pulling random text from a textfile (array.txt) into movieclip instance textbox.[code]All is good, but now my question is if I can have a text effect as well. For example having the random quotes typed out as they appear.
View 16 RepliesWhen I create a TLF text area that is editable at runtime (which means that it can get a user input at runtime) I set the text direction to the 'right-to-left' definition in both the 'container and flow' and the 'paragraph' sections and set the language for Arabic or Hebrew at the 'locale' setting. I also set the text alignment to the 'align to start' mode. Now at runtime there's a stange thing. When I try to click with the mouse cursor on the editable TLF text-box, it's not displaying the text icon cursor and don't allow me to insert text inside.
But when I move my mouse cursor over the right side of the editable TLF text box, it change his appearance to the familiar text cursor which indicate that if you click here you will be able to insert text input inside. So my problem is how can I make it that only when I will hover over the TLF text box itself, the mouse cursor will be changed to text cursor icon and when I will hover beside its right side, it will remain at the normal cursor mode.
I need to put together an editable text area that has a custom caret (cursor) which is different from the default blinking vertical line. Is the caret a "skinnable" property of text input? note that I am not asking about the mouse pointer cursor which can be set using the CursorManager.

This is what I tried, I am very new to Action Script, so excuse the futility of my code.
Trying to format input text fields using format buttons in Actionscript has been challenging. I've been able to put some pieces together, however I am still missing some things. Here's my code:
Code:
function selectText() {
startSelect = Selection.getBeginIndex();[code].........
I need the ability to click the Bold button and it bolds or unbolds at the cursor so if I hit the bold button what I type from that point on will be bold until I hit the button again and then it goes back to regular. I am able to change it to bold or unbold by selecting the text and clicking the button but I also need to do it without selecting.
Is it possible to create gradient text with text in a text field, without using a different object?
I have three text fields sitting right next to each other, to create a row. Some times the text is longer than the width of the text field, I don't want to widen the the text field to make it fit, I just want to fade the last 20 - 50 pixels of the text out.
Is this possible to do without using an object above it, such as a gradient?
If you take a look at my flash movie you will see that I have draggable movie clips, which contain dynamic text fields. These text fields contain text drawn in from a simple xml document. The problem I have is that the text in the text fields is hedged right next to the border of the autosized text box. This makes them look untidy and in the worst case difficult to read. I wonder how I can add some margin to the left and right of the text to fill in some space.The code which formats the text boxes is:
with (main["dragAct"+i].dragActText) {
text = actText[i+1];
background = true;

Currently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:
Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}
Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.
I'm playing around with a messaging type of application. Does anyone know how, or of any tutorials on to "appending" html text to text areas in flex and flex mobile projects? And specifically how I could take that and basically "append" a sprite inline to the text when i need to? Something simple like:Username: some text right here!So, Anyone have any experience "appending" sprites or simple text formatting?how to solve these issues!EDIT:Based on an answer below it was sugguested that it's as simple as...textAreaInstance.htmlText += "<b>Username:</b> some text right here!";But its not. you can't do .htmltext with a text area. you can on a text field, so i tried
var TF:TextField = new TextField();
TF.width = 200;
TF.height = 200;
