View 1 Replieshow to make the output window auto scroll? i.e. If I have an enter frame event that increments a number and I trace that number, when the traces fill the output window, I cannot see the current traces. I have to go grab the scroll bar and drag it down and since it is constantly changing it is tough to keep up.
View 4 RepliesI have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410
I am trying for first time actionscript as package document.And I am trying to make run a Doc class that load an XML file and output the results on trace.I don't know where are my errors:
Code:

I'm making a canadian tax calculator - and it all works BUT I need it to check the fields and if they're blank, make it process it as zero. ALSO, I've now discovered I need to make the fields display as money would. Is it possible to make the fields only show two decimal points, put a comma in (like --> 2,546.00) and have it everytime show two zeros (sometimes it displays as this --> 26.0 instead of 26.00. At the *least* I need it to show 26.0 >> like this ...26.00

I am trying to make a sprite button with graphics and can't make it work. I have successfully added text fields so I know the path is correct. I suspected my code was correct and confirmed it should be, after reading several tutorials showing the process for creating sprite buttons with graphics. Anyway, I imported nearly every class on Earth, but certainly everything which needs to be. Stage is gray and 800x600.The graphics code by itself with appear, but not when linked to the sprite. Also, the sprite won't appear no matter what. Another interesting piece of the puzzle: nothing will trace, not even objects such as textfields which actually appear and function on the stage when I text the code.
public class ContactClass extends Sprite {
public function ContactClass() {
var home_btn:Sprite = new Sprite();[code]....

My code above works absolutely fine, until i resize my browser window to a size below 800px width. When the browser window is make of lesser width than 800px, the canvas with background color #A8A8A8 is on the right of the window, but the problem is, when I move the scroll bar, the canvas should remain on the right of the window. Which does not happen, and that is what my problem is.
How can I solve this issue. What should I do to keep my canvas be on the right=0 all the time.
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?

View 5 RepliesI just migrated from CS3 to CS4 I have a set of navigation buttons which are in text now. I need the first left word to be at 100 align left and the last text word to be at 800 align right there are 3 other buttons in the middle. How in the world do I align all these with keeping the far left word and far right words where against their lines and keeping the spacing inbetween all the same? I tried this with keeping the text as text and using the align tools, paragraph tools then converting all the text to an mc and still can't get it right. I pic of what I need to do is in the attached.

View 2 Replies[URL]The black square is "square_mc", it's X/Y is at its center/center point.The blue circles are all inside a clip called "circles_mc", it's X/Y center is NOT at its center/center of the circles -- in fact, it could be 100 or 200 or 300 pixels to the left, right, top or bottom of where the blue circles are within it.
I need to align and scale the circles_mc over the square_mc to fit within the edges of the square_mc. But I can't use the circles_mc X/Y information to position it.How do you do that? I can get the scaling right, but I don't know how to align them one over the other as I described.
I have a movie clip (menu2_mc) containing a navigation menu, which I want to have appear always on the middle of the screen and at the bottom say 15 pixels in even when the window is resized.I followed a tut by kevin schmitt which allows the background to be fullscreen on a resize. I have been able to center the clip on screen but still having problems nutting out how to change the y coordinates on a screen resize.

I am aligning my display objects in the middle. stage.stageWidth/2. for some reason, they are aligning further off to the right of the screen. I haven't altered anything but the stage width in flash. Has anyone heard of this problem? Again, I haven't done anything except widen the screen and adjust the height.
My focus point on the display object is top left. So it aligns perfectly when set to 0,0
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.stageWidth = 300;

I am trying to read data from a XML and then create a match-them kind of game where one set of choices are listed one on top of other and another set is on a row above them one after the other with the text aligned vertically.I have the whole thing working out perfectly but the only problem is that I am not able to display the text vertically. I did some searching and turns out that Dynamic and Input Text boxes can not display vertically oriented texts. I thought about creating static textfields at run time but couldn't find an option to vertically orient the text in the formatting options.I tried rotating the movieclips after the textfields have been created but as soon as the clips are rotated, the text disappears.
View 4 RepliesI have an attached movieclip that duplicates boxes vertically. All the boxes are different heights, because I've scripted it to adjust with the amount of xml text contained inside these boxes.
How do I get these boxes to line up right without overlapping eachother?

So i'm trying to align a navigation to the bottom of the browser.
and this is whats happening...The NAV clip is aligning to something, but it's not working right. I want it to be 25 pixels from the bottom at all times, no matter what size the browser is...
Here is the code and the .fla
Code:
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
var myListener:Object = new Object();
[Code].....
I'm using this code for aligning a navigation to the bottom of my browser.
Code:
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
[Code]....
The problem that i'm having is that when the timeline gets to the point where the slider is used the fscommand("allowscale", false); takes over the original fscommand used for the nav. I need to use both, as the slider only seems to work properly with that code, and likewise with the bottom aligned navigation.
How can i get around this? I want to align my navigation to the bottom of the browser at all times, yet have my slider be relevant to the browser when it's being used.
Is there another way to align the nav to the bottom of the browser? Maybe and onEnterframe();?
