Mar 17, 2009I've got a flash document using AS3. It dynamically reads data from an XML file, and creates a bunch of single line textFields. Could be like this:
<XMLdata>
<Line>this is line 1</Line>
<Line>this is line 2</Line>
<Line>this is line 3</Line>
</XMLdata>
So, for each node, it would create a new TextField, and change the textField.y value so that they are "stacked" on top of each other. All this if fine, except that if you hae so many "lines" (or textfields) that the "stack" is taller than the Flash Document size. What I would like to do is have a scroll bar or something so you can scroll the stack of TextFields. Doesnt' even need to be a scroll bar. Maybe an arrow button at the bottom, and when you click on it, it scrolls down. One for up too.

View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Change The Text Of The Textfield?
Mar 21, 2009When adding textFields dynamically, as well as the TextFormat, it seems that the textFormat needs to be applied every time the text is changed. So if I have:
TxtFld.text = 'This is some text';
txtFld.setTextFormat(txtFormat);
That works. But, if i add the line:
txtFld.text = 'This is the new Text'
Then the format is lost. How can I make it so that I can change the text of the textfield, and not lose the formatting I've already applied?

Jan 15, 2009I am trying to add a listener to a textfield and determine when it is changed that a screen box behind the textfield is resized to fit.

But this does not fire. I want to get the new height of the textfield box and set the screen behind it accordingly. What is the proper code for this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Why Does Highlighting The Text In Textfield Cause The Format To Change
Nov 20, 2009The movie I am working on has a dynamic text field which I setup and format in the constructor of the ActionScript 3.0 class code for the movie - I am working with CS3 Flash. I do not reformat the text field anywhere in the code after the constructor.The text displays in the text field perfectly as long as I do not highlight the text when running the movie.
If I highlight the text in the text box as if I were going to copy and paste, the next time text is written to the text field the font type and size changes. The only way to reset the font formatting is to restart the movie.
Is there a solution or workaround? Of course I can reformat the text everytime I write new text to the textfield, but during the course of the movie text is rewritten to the textfield many times.
ActionScript 3 :: How To Change Width Of TextField Without Stretching Text
Feb 25, 2012I used to know how to do this, so, I KNOW it's possible, but I can't figure it out again. I'm altering the width of my TextField by setting the width property but that warps the text. I want to alter the width of the text field without altering the way the font looks (obviously). I believe it has something to do with autoText or some such idiocy (why would I ever want to warp my text?!) but I just can't recall.
myField.width = 100; //
If the original width was 50 this simply stretches the field to 100, rather than adding 50 pixels into which characters can be drawn.

Dec 23, 2009I have an input text field, it's grey and italic - it says "Enter album name here". When it's clicked I want the text to go away, and change the style to black/unitalicized so the user can enter some text. Here is my event function that triggers on mouse up. The text format changes properly if I set the text to "hi", but *not* if I set the text to the empty string... Is this a bug?

View 5 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Possible To Change Text Styles Of Single Words Or Lines Within A Textfield?
Jan 9, 2011it is possible to change text styles of single words or lines within a textfield with actionscript. I use an empty textfield and add my text to that field in actionscript with the following code:
myTfield.text = "insert text here"
the text contains multiple lines and I want some of them to be bold, italic or a bigger font size. The reason why I am adding my text to my textfield this way is because I need the text in the textfield to change when some buttons are pressed. Text will be added or removed from the textfield if buttons are pressed by the user and the current way I'm changing the text is by simply re-using the code above with new text in it. (it makes the code quite long though, but I guess I'll have to deal with that)But because I'm adding text this way I am not sure how to change the style of different parts of the text.
On a related note, with CS5 there are now a number of options for textfields. There is TLF text and classic text. I've searched around for the differences but I don't find the awnsers very clear. What option should I use for my textfield if I want it to look sharp like the text I'm typing here (its just regular text, no headers or anything). Some options just give blurry text because of the anti-alias and some settings don't seem to change a thing. And at times embedding fonts looks nice but sometimes it makes it worse. There are so many options to choose from, but it is unclear what would work best for regular text. (my text won't animate, it does move with a scrollbar, but I only care about how it looks when the scrollbar is still)
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Can't Change TextField's Text Inside An Extended SimpleButton Class

View 4 RepliesFlex :: Remove Default CSS From TextField?
Feb 23, 2011I'm in serious fight with it. I need to set the defaultTextFormat of a TextField component to my own values. I can't do that since the component does not use the defaultTextFormat if it has it is already using the format from CSS stylesheet as said here [URL]
Note: You can't set this property if a style sheet is applied to the text field.
My question is: is there a way to remove the CSS propertis of the text field? How could I "override" this style sheet ??
I want be able to do that without overwrite the CSS file or write my own.

Jan 3, 2011I have a problem where i want to remove the last character from a textfield (including linebreaks) that has multiple textformats without removing the formats.[code]...
i guess this doesn't remove linebreaks, and is very slow, seems to destroy my textformats.
or:

this is faster but removes all textformats as well.
