I have a dynamic text box on the stage with an instance name of caption. Is there are way to change the alignment dynamically? When the text is under 100 bytes, I want to center the text, if it is more than 100 bytes, I want to left align the text. Is there any way to do this?

I'm working to update a project that was created by someone else who left our company. It was done in AS2, so I'd like to keep it that way (without updating all the code to AS3). Here is a section of code that currently works:
var item = {Rank:rank, City:city, Reps:representatives, RepsWithSales:RepsWithSales, Appts:appts, AvgSales:FormatAsDollars(average)};
topSales.addItem(item);

in the TextFormat has align property to set alignment ;Code: Select allvar tfo:TextFormat=new TextFormat();tfo.align='right';how i can set alignment in the flash.text.engine
View 1 RepliesI am working on a selector that uses 2 list boxes. Standard stuff, you can move items from the left box with arrow buttons to the right box. However I can't seem to get the annoying green "halo" to go away whenever one of the boxes is selected. I have tried
lstbox._focusrect = false;
lstbox.enabled = false;
lstbox.setStyle("themeColor", "Sample");
Nothing seems to stop that highlight box from popping up. Funny thing is it doesn't pop up in the IDE only when I view the movie online in production.
Working off the the tutorial here: [URL] I'm unable to get the onchangehandler working for the list component in MX 2004. I have just the basics and its still not working. I have a listbox named photolist, and I can fill it just fine but the onchangehandler isn't working. Below is the basic code that I have that isn't even tracing for the onchangehandler.

My overall project is to create a gallery app (sort of like the mac album browser app) Anyway, all images are loaded from an xml file:
Code:
<imageSet>
<image>[code]....
The reassignment of the _x and _y are visually changed, but for some reason it is towards the bottom and not the middle like it should be. (1000x400px document). Something is up with the component...
Is there a way I can remove the event listener from Listbox component?
I tried to use:
Code:
note_mc.note_lb.removeEventListener("change", myEventListener);
how do I trace that the listener is removed?
I know how to change the font in a listbox, but when I do it (to a font like courier, for example) all of the "deep" characters get cropped (gjpqy).
I can't find the StyleProperty that controls line height or line spacing.
Kudos to the person who can successfully change the rowHeight of this listbox. It's a V1 Component and that seems to be the problem since using this code: songList_lb.rowHeight = 30; works for me in V2 but not in V1. Since I need to customize the look of the listbox scrollers I have to stay with V1.
View 1 RepliesI created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.
Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.
flash cs3 here I cant change the compnonent lists font values - in particular the font color...
I can use this and it works fine
Code:
playList.setStyle("contentPadding", 50);
but this has no effect?!?!
Code:
playList.setStyle("color", "red");
Does anyone have a list of styles that can be changed in a list? or a reference to them?
Is there a way I can change the stage colour using a list box for example Inside a list colours -
-Red
-Green
-Blue
When the user chooses red, the stage colour would change to red.
I'm trying to resize my listbox but I am using a customised Listbox class that someone else has made. I need to have listboxes of different sizes in my project.
My problem is that when I resize the listbox on the stage this doesnt alter the height (presumably as the height is controlled by code within the class). I have tried going through all of the code and renaming the two customised classes and then altering the size on the stage but this doesn't work either.
I have tried altering the height of the listbox using ._height but this squashes the box so the text is too small to read. I can't find any other methods for altering height apart from setSize which I can only get to alter the width.
I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious or if I'm going to have to delve into the world of customising components.
how to extend Components, like if i hav to place images next to the content inside a listBox Component, how do i do that?

View 4 RepliesI keep asking myself why Flash is so simple when it comes to text layout and finally today I was thinking that that really can't be, considering Flash is meant to layout text in web sites. In my text field, I am looking to create a half return, so if I want space between two paragraphs, I don't have to use an empty return each time. Kind of like p padding in css. I also want to create a tab order in my text field, for better alignment of information. I am looking to create the look of two columns, where I have a date with a paragraph associated with it, with the paragraph being more then one line of the date, but staying indented. Lastly, and I am assuming this is a given, I would like the text to come from a xml or html file.

I have a listbox component called "policytext" on my stage. I have some XML info loaded into it, which works fine. The problem occurs when i try to make each one a link. I made an event listener that doesnt want to work. Could someone look at this code and tell me what im doing wrong? I've tried both click and change for the event and both don't work.

I've been following an xml tutorial webdesign tutorial, as I'm pretty new to the whole coding side of things, I've copied their code into my own design, which has been going fine up until this point.In the tutorials the dynamic menus were alligned vertically, in my site I want them to run horizontally, well I managed to suss out how to realign them, the problem is that the spacing between each button is set according to the end of each (invisible) button.I'm wondering if theres a line of code I can insert, which defines the size of each button according to the size of the text, or alternately, that starts the spacing from the end of the text rather than the button.[code]
View 2 RepliesI'm using the following code to resize user input text when it gets too long for the textfield. The resizing seems to work fine but when it resizes it it becomes left aligned and is outside the textfield. I only see the end of the text. It's as though it's centering to the cursor instead of the text. If I use the arrow keys to back up the text it snaps into the center of the textfield like it should have been from the start.[code]
