ActionScript 3.0 :: Applied Textformat Object No Effect?
Nov 10, 2009
I have created a textFormat object and applied to Dynamic text field, but I do not see the effect. Am I missing something? I have a section of the code belo. fields[h] is actually a dynamic text field in the case below. As you can see I have assigned the arial as a font and red color as its color. But when I run the movie, it has no effect at all. But if I trace the textFormat as below i can see arial and 0xff0000 (in decimal) in console.

I'm trying to autosize my combobox, according to the textWidth of its biggest items. I've got the right textWidth without setting the textFormat, but by setting textFormat, with a bigger font size (like 30), the textWidth stays the same !
Code:
var myFormat : TextFormat = new TextFormat("Trebuchet MS", 30, 0x0000FF);var myCbx
myCbx= new ComboBox ;
myCbx.x = 0;

I'm trying to get the jitter effect applied to a button.I currently have a mc called suggestcaption_mc with the following code applied to it.
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
this._x = 103.9;
this._y = 30.2;
[code]....
This works fine. Now what I am trying to do is turn this into a button which does this effect on rollover?I tried sticking the mc in the hover keyframe of a button but this does nothing.

I am applying s:Fade effect on s:ItemRenderer on mouseOver event. The fade effect ends fine, but during its execution, it is applied only on half of the ItemRenderer object, plus half of the adjacent (right) ItemRenderer.
ItemRenderer objects are inside a s:List which uses a HorizontalLayout.
Here is the code for the ItemRenderer called FilterTagRenderer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:ItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

According to the ActionScript 3.0 documentation, the TextFormat classes size property is an Object. Why is this? Clearly this is a number! When I check its type (using typeOf()), it returns Number. So whats the deal?

I'm struggling a bit to fully understand garbage collection. To be honest I don't understand why this just can't be taken care of automatically but hey - I'm not a programmer so what do I know... Now to my question - I have the following code:
Code:
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.letterSpacing = -3.5;
huvud_txt.setTextFormat(format);
Is it enough to set format = null; to destroy the format object or is there some crossreference going on here so that I need to do something more? huvud_txt is a textfield on stage - it's not created with code...

I'm having a problem with a my TextFormat object in the Letter class I've created. Whenever I call a class function that alters the TextFormat object (formatText,sizeText,colorText), the next time that one of these functions is called on a different instance the common formatting is applied. I've read that you need to redefine objects or arrays within the class constructor in order to make them unique to instances. I think I've done here with this code but it is not working:
Code:
//Letter Constructor
function Letter() {

conversion of htmlText ( which contains all the formatting info ) to an equivalent TextFormat object.. so that I can transfer the htmlText info ( with formatting ) to a TextFormat object and then apply them to any textfield..
You may wonder why this approach when it can be done directly using the htmlText? Cos I am trying to manipulate the text field by resizing it ( with a user-controlled handle )..It works fine when I use normal text, but when I use the html=true, the resize seems to go haywire... ( if any one has tried this earlier.. I would like to hear about getting around this )
I need to apply the formatting at the same time make it resizable ( by user ) as expected.. which could be done if the html formatting info can be applied as a TextFormat object to the text field.. rather than set the htmlText="someFormattedText".
In short, I am looking for a parser that would read the htmlText info and convert it to TextFormat object(s).

I have several Sprites that are all combined in one parent Sprite. The parent Sprite then gets a Glowfilter applied and should then be masked by a Textfield.
Everythings working fine but as soon as I apply the Filter to the Sprite nothing shows... However, if I apply the Filter to every single Object that the Sprite contains, it works...

i have an object (like square or something) and i need to animate it's decomposition and motion tween parts away. What would be the best approach to do that? My initial idea was something like: if this object is an image, maybe there is a BitmapData method that allows me to cut off a certain part of it so that i can save that part as movie clip and then tween it away?

I would like to make a mouse-over effect on an object. The mouse-over effect should work like this: when the mouse cursor is dragged over the object it should glow, but if the mouse cursor remains over the object it should still glow, but another mouse over effect should occur, showing an info box for the object. Until now I have just made the object as a button, and in the "over" box I have made the object glow, by defining it as a movie clip. However, this only works for the glow part. How do I add another mouse-over effect (which is delayed 1 sec) to the same object?

i have a simple .fla here which by using masks appears to "draw" a wavy box... (kinda choppy, just made it fast for example), what i am wondering is if there is a same way to achieve this effect through actionscript (not just draw a box, but to reveal any picture or shape, for a "drawing effect")[URL]. i'm kinda newish to AS, not much more then basics.

know if the index effect the scope of an object because I am creating a game and for some reason, I get an error like below
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at com.objects::Torret/updateObject()
at com.objects::EngineApi/loop()
[Code].....
updateObject is the loop for all my objects. I have one centralized loop and in that loop it calls on an array of objects that have been placed on the stage. all of them containing the method updateObject. to update the status of the object. addGameChild() is a encapsulated addChild() , that not only adds the object to the stage, but places it in a array so it's updateObject() method can be called on. it is also used to make it easier for garbage collection.

I'm trying to do a cross-fade effect for my gallery. To do that, I'm using two movieclips, one that holds the image currently displayed, and another one that holds the image that should be displayed next. When the coming image is loaded, the cross-fade effect should happen, the container that holds the image that was on stage should be cleared out, then the image in the other container should be displaced to the former container.
Here's my code so far:
function loadFirstImage():void {
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addFirstImage);
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(myImages[0].url));
currentImage = new MovieClip();

lets say we want to animate an object using the 3d position its (Z position)to be exact, from keyrame 1 to keyframe 40 or so on. i put the object on keyrame 1 to 10000position and view and then its keyframe on 40 to 0 position and view,so it looks like a nice object zooming towards you as you see it.but how can we get the object to constantly spin around and around(like from the motion presets from the default:spiral 3D ) .so it seems like a coin been tossed.
