Professional :: Applying Text Format To ComboBox Makes TextField Text Disappear?
Oct 25, 2010When applying text formatting to a comboBox, the text formatting appears perfectly on the dropdown menu items but the textField text disappears.Removing the text formatting from the textField makes the textField text reappear but of course there is no text formatting.
Is there a trick to this.
ActionScript 2.0 :: EmbedFonts Makes Text Disappear - Dynamic Text Vertical Position?
Aug 7, 2003I have the following code:
Code:
this.createTextField ("imageText",2,95,0,390,96);
imageText.multiline = true;
imageText.wordWrap = true;[code].....
The problem:If I uncomment either of the imageText.embedFonts lines, my text will disappear... but the trace(imageText.text); will still return the correct contents. It's as though embedFonts causes the textField to disappear.Possibly related, (but maybe not), is the fact that the vertical positioning of the font is off. Even though I create the textField at Y = 0, the text writes somewhere around Y = 10. I suspect this is something else, but I thought I'd add it just in case.

Flex :: Dynamically Add Words Of Text To A Container?
Jun 3, 2010I have a scenario where I want to dynamically add words of text to a container so that it forms a paragraph of text which is wrapped neatly according to the size of the parent container. Each text element will have differing formatting, and will have differing user interaction options. For example, imagine the text " has just spoken out about ". Each word will be added to the container one at a time, at run time. The username in this case would be bold, and if clicked on will trigger an event. Same with the news article. The rest of the text is just plain text which, when clicked on, would do nothing.
Now, I'm using Flex 3 so I don't have access to the fancy new text formatting tools. I've implemented a solution where the words are plotted onto a canvas, but this means that the words are wrapped at a particular y position (an arbitrary value I've chosen). When the container is resized, the words still wrap at that position which leaves lots of space.I thought about adding each text element to an Array Collection and using this as a datasource for a Tile List, but Tile Lists don't support variable column widths (in my limited knowledge) so each word would use the same amount of space which isn't ideal. how I can plot words onto a container so that I can retain formatting, events and word wrapping at paragraph level, even if the container is resized?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Input Restrict Words
Jan 4, 2010I'm making a project in which I have a input/output text box. I'm trying to restrict the words that are able to be said in the input box, but I can't seem to figure out how I'd do that. I'd think that I'd use .replace, and possibly an if function which tells it that if a word used does not equal the allowed words, to replace it with something such as ###.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get Input Text To Search A List Of Words?
May 1, 2011I'm planning to make a game that gives players the choice to search a word when selecting a character, and if that word is found, they get to play as them. I don't even have a clue what, where and how I am gonna put the list in the game for something to search it. I'll try to give an example:
A user puts "horse" into the input field, presses the "Search" button, and Flash searches the word "horse" in a list of maybe 30 or so words. If it returns no results, a message says, "keyword not found". If it is found, a picture of a horse comes up in the character preview box.
Actionscript 3.0 :: Possible To Change The Style Of Single Words In A Text?
Jan 9, 2011I have a question about textfields and I'm wondering if it 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 :: Isolate Words Entered By User Into 'Input Text'
Nov 22, 2009I'm trying to isolate words entered by the user into an "Input Text" (command). In a function that executes every time a key is pressed, I set a string, "newTxt", to the text entered.[code]This works fine; I'm able to check the string "newTxt". However, this checks the entire command rather than one word. When I replace line 2 with:[code]it freezes. In theory, it should add every letter until it reaches a space or ends, right? Could anyone find my mistake? Also, how would I go about checking for the second word (after a space)?

IDE :: Making Dynamic Text Boxes Only Display Full Words?
Nov 10, 2009Is it possible to make dynamic text boxes display only full words from an xml feed? At the moment I have a selection of feeds that are supposed to run into each other, but if some of the text is longer than expected I get the first one or two characters of a word tagged on at the end. Is it possible to have the flash read whether it has character space left to display the next word in the xml?
I know it doesn't really recognise spaces etc and just pulls in the info within the node, but maybe there's a work-around if you want to do what I'm trying?

View 2 RepliesActionscript :: Generate Random Lines Of Text Of A Given Length From A Dictionary Of Words (bin-packing Problem)?
Mar 1, 2010I need to generate three lines of text (essentially jibberish) that are each 60 characters long, including a hard return at the end of each line. The lines are generated from a dictionary of words of various lengths (typically 1-8 characters). No word may be used more than once, and words must be separated by spaces. I think this is essentially a bin-packing problem.
The approach I've taken so far is to create a hashMap of the words, grouped by their lengths. I then choose a random length, pull a word of that length from the map, and append it to the end of the line I'm currently generating, accounting for spaces or a hard return. It works about half the time, but the other half of the time I'm getting stuck in an infinite loop and my program crashes.
