View 5 RepliesWhen a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.
I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.
Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?
How can I save data to a text file and also append a record to data in an existing text file? I've used Authowrware previously and it was quite easy to create a large string of data (a comma separated list) and export that to a text file (and create the text file if it didn't already exist). I could then easily append additional rows of data (records) to the text file. We want to build a questionnaire that will store the data locally on the computer in a text file. Each record may have a few hundred data points in a comma separated list.

I am trying to get all the button instances to become invisible on the screen. They are named img1 to img30. I thought of using a while loop to quickly run through them. The code within img1 button is:
var i:Number = 2;
while(i<=30) {
img2._alpha = 0;
i++;
}
The problem is how do I append the i after img, to replace the 2? so that the code runs through img 2 to img 30. I know the answer might be simple

I have Flash CS5 at work, and CS3 at home. I am creating a FLA file at home that I'd like to append to an existing file at work. I'm guessing that I'll just need to import all of the symbols from the CS3 file into the CS5 file and then copy and paste the frames - or is there a better way to do it? What I'd really like to do is to somehow convert the CS3 file into a movie clip symbol that I could just run in the CS5 file. Is this possible?
View 3 RepliesI've got a Flex application that uses link buttons. As soon as I incorporated the link buttons (I assume) the Flex framework started putting history tracking elements below the app in the DOM. For example IE6-8 get an iframe element with id of ie_historyFrame, chrome/safari get a safari_rememberDiv and FF gets a firefox_anchorDiv.
Now, there would be no problem if these elements were hidden by the framework, but they're not. The sit underneath the Flex app (visually and in the DOM) and have a bunch of serialized history data.
I was wondering, is there a way to hide them through configuration or code? I know I could hide them via CSS but it just seems nasty that I'd have to use CSS for something that Flex is supposed to manage. I want the application to be site independent.
Does anyone have any links about using appendChild() and insertchildbefore() because I can't seem to get this to work.
