I have implemented the same with Numeric steppers. I am in search of an enhanced component.
are there better Advanced Components for Textarea ? Any Advanced Textarea component with built-in Search/Replace/Filter Capabilities ?
I want to build an application using air. The application should load the flashlog file and display the contents after performing some text filtering.But when i load the application this clears my flashlog.txt though my file mode is READ.I can understand that running my air application clears the flashlog and prepares it for new logging. Is there a workaround for this.I dont want to open the flashlog file everytime and check for traces from my web application

Using the above code it only searches the node which author value is "Stephen E. Ambrose" but I want to search only "Stephen" and want to get this node returned.

View 3 RepliesIf you take a look at my flash movie you will see that I have draggable movie clips, which contain dynamic text fields. These text fields contain text drawn in from a simple xml document. The problem I have is that the text in the text fields is hedged right next to the border of the autosized text box. This makes them look untidy and in the worst case difficult to read. I wonder how I can add some margin to the left and right of the text to fill in some space.The code which formats the text boxes is:
with (main["dragAct"+i].dragActText) {
text = actText[i+1];
background = true;

I have a dynamic text filed scrolling with a drag button on a track or the mousewheel. What I am trying to do now is have the scroll button and track not visible if the content is smaller than the text field.

//txt is text field name

Noob question, I hope. I need to create scrolling text areas with rich text format content. I know I can use the textArea component and set the htmlText property but converting all of my RTF to HTML is gonna be a major pain in the @$$. I keep getting into trouble thinking what's mindlessly easy in Director/Lingo is gonna be reasonably simple in Flash/AS3, I hoping this is just my inexperience with Flash getting in the way. Is there an easier way? I thought of embedding a PDF document but apparently that's not an option in Flash either (note: I know how to link a PDF doc, I need this text to display and scroll within the application, not just pop a new window on top).
View 6 RepliesI use .txt files a lot with flash to load external news and updates. Although you can use the loadVariablesNum() command to load the .txt files is there anyway to edit and save the external files in flash? e.g. say I have a text box and a submit button in flash is there some way where I can add the text boxes content to a .txt file?
View 1 RepliesI have made a movie clip which I export to ActionScript 3.
In this movie clip I have drawn a text field (area? well TEXT) using the plain "Text Tool".
After selecting the text, and after I have entered "0" to be displayed, I edit its properties. It's Instance Name, defined at the very top of the list I have written "score". The text engine is TLF Text and the text type "Read only".
When I have made a instance of the movie clip using AS3 I can't get the value of the text instance named "score" - when calling something like trace(getChildByName("score")) in the constructor I just get null.
I want to be able to get the value of the text "score", and I would also like to change its value.
Just how do I get the value from ActionScript? I don't want to have to create the text progamatically and position it, and I doubt that I have to.
I have been given the SQL file which i have exported as XML, i understand this is the easiest format for flash to read. I am sure this is a really simple thing to do as it is basically filtering the sql/xml.

Making a XML Filtering - Sorting funcion.
View 2 RepliesThere are dashes in attributes of an xml, and I don't know how to filter them: Here you can see a simple example of the xml:
<posts>
<post>
<photo-url max-width="1280">http://blabla.tumblr.com/photo/98</photo-url>
</post>
</posts>
Because also the photo-url-tag has a dash, I needed to parse it with ...child("photo-url"). This worked fine, but if I want to filter these tags(photo-url), in order to receive all photo-url's with the same attribute: "max-widht='1280'", I couldn't manage to do so. I tried this approach:
var photoUrl:XMLList = xml.posts.post.child("photo-url").(@max-width==1280);
I get this error:

I have an array that has 30 date objects. The date objects are indexed in the array from the minimum date value to the maximum date value. What I would like to do is retrieve only 7 dates from the array. Out of the 7, the first one should be the minDate and the last should be the maxDate, with 5 dates in the middle. The 7 numbers should increment evenly from the minDate to the maxDate.

I think using sliders is an interesting way to give the user a better way of filtering the data like the ones used atUsing check boxes and drop downs also seem to work as it can improve the users search/filter experience.What is the best approach/methodology to use to build this sort of Flash solution? I want to build simple interfaces that can be used anytime with pre-defined data that the user can organize or filter by various different categories. Examples I can think of are product, house or holiday searches using categories such as price, quanity etc.
