May 12, 2009I have successfully loaded and parsed the XML data that I need. I would now like to build a dynamic symbol that displays the data. It is a list of managers. I would like to display their names, organizations, etc... I assume a label would be best, binding the appropriate XML node to the text attribute of a label? I'm not sure, but that sounds the most reasonable. I can't seem to find and examples of doing this in AS3 however. Does anyone know how I would accomplish this task?
View 6 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Get A Flex Text Control To Display Cyrillic Characters?
Feb 22, 2009Does anyone know what I need to do to get a flex text control to display cyrillic characters for example. [wvxvw? hebrew?] In addtion to the main .swf (.mxml) file there are font libraries loaded that are also in a seperate .swf The text control is subclassed from Flex.Text and in a seperated .AS file. Then to top it, the actual text in cyrillic is coming from an .xml file.I've tried "<?xml version="1.0" encoding='UTF-8' " in the main .mxml file and the xml file. I believe I've put Byte Order Marks (BOM's) for utf-8 in the .AS file and maybe some of the other files. I've compiled everything with specifying the utf-8 encoding as well. I get nothing where the characters are supposed to be.
View 0 RepliesFlash - How To Handle Text In AS3 Simply
Aug 1, 2010I feel like every time I need to use TextField or anything else related in AS3, it becomes a giant mess of code just for a few lines.I have tried using css as well for text but have encountered some issues where it isn't rendered the same on different servers/clients. Are there any text handling libraries that I don't know of or some other way to manage text in AS3?
View 3 RepliesFlash :: Simply Append A Sprite Into A Text Area?
Jun 7, 2011How would I go about appending (not just changing the entire text area to this img, actually appending) a simple 25x25 image sprite into a text area in a flex project? using actionscript? (not mxml)
(it has to be a spark text area component, mostly because this is a flex mobile project and thats all thats optimized for mobile)
edit: I guess I should have said this, i know html text is the way to go about it. But my real confusion lies with first it being a Sprite, so i dont have a url to link to. It's an actual sprite var (it would be a file sent over the network in bytes, and saved in a sprite object.) and then the second part where im lost is APPENDING it to the text inline, so it doesnt replace any of the text already in the text area, and will be scrollable in the text area.
also, remember im trying to append this to a SPARK TEXT AREA component. I know i could just make a text field instance and thats it, but i cant find any information about appending this to a text area
EDIT AGAIN:
SInce there was some confusion about the sprite im trying to append, this is how the image is being transmitted,
it's starting out as just a standard cameraphone image, then..
var fs:FileStream = new FileStream();
fs.open(new File(imageURL), FileMode.READ);
var bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
[Code]....
So then finally I have the image in imageSprite... and that brings us to my main problem appending this image in a TEXT AERA spark component. With an end result that will have the look of a picture message sent on an android or iphone.

Apr 15, 2012I have created a textArea element but cannot display my HTML content. If I just display regular text it works or if I change the textArea element to a RichEditableText element it works fine. Since this is for a mobile app I would prefer to use the textArea element as recommended by Adobe.Here is the MXML code for the textArea. All I get is the border and no content displayed.

Flex :: RichText Vs Label Control
Apr 16, 2011I have a flex project where I uses the spark RichText control quite extensively, there are places where it is possible for me to replace RichText with the Label control - (The rich text occurred due an import from Flash Catalyst). My question is, is there any space/performance advantage in using Label over RichText, since Label seems like a much lighter option, I am building a web app, size matters.

IDE :: Display A Label Movieclip On Mouseover?
Jun 15, 2009appears to be a problem with masking text. Trying to embed it now. So, I have a button that I want to display a label movieclip on mouseover, yeah? -and the clip contains a blank dynamic textField with an instance name of "label_text". So, I have one of these clips as a private variable in the button's class definition, and the constructor passes the button's instance name to the label's constructor to set the text field.Unfortunately, the text will only show if I actually open up the label's clip in the library and type something in. Not very dynamic!

AS3 :: RadioButton Label Changes Visibly When Added To Display List?
Sep 14, 2010I'm instantiating a group of RadioButton components into a Sprite and then later adding it to the display list. When the latter occurs, I can visibly see the font of the RadioButtons' labels changing from a serif to sansserif—but I have NO code to that effect anywhere. This occurs long after the components are actually instantiated, when they (via their parents) are added to the displaylist.
In Question_UI.answersContainer.answer:
answerUI = new RadioButton();
answerUI.group = rbg;
answerUI.label = text;
[Code]....
I've triple-checked the obvious, but there's NO code regarding the font of the label at all. It seems to only have to do with being added to the displaylist.

Playback Control Is Cut Off Does Not Display
Aug 6, 2010I imported an FLV video and selected a Skin via the Video import wizard. The Under... skin did not display. The Over... skin shows just a sliver of it at the bottom of the published video. There is also a black border about .38" high at the top and bottom of the video. The sliver of the playback control is over the lower border. I've tried resizing the video in the Publish Video dialog, using No Borders and nothing helps. Using Flash CS4 on Win XP. I used the AMEncoder to convert the MPG to FLV.

Flex :: Do 'anything' With The Selected Text In Mx:Label Or Mx:Text?
Jun 19, 2009Flex's text-editing controls (mx:TextField, mx:TextArea) offer functions for doing "stuff" with the selected text (selectionBeginIndex, selectionEndIndex, setSelection), but the text-displaying controls (mx:Label, mx:Text) don't seem to offer anything of the sort.After some tinkering, I've tried subclassing Label then writing functions which give access to the underlying TextField instance... But even then, setting the selection didn't work![code]So, is there any better way to access/change the text which is selected in mx:Label and mx:Text controls? Are there "better" controls to use?

Nov 18, 2009When a Validator (i.e. StringValidator, NumberValidator, etc) dispatches an invalid event due to validation failure, the errorString property of the source control (i.e. TextInput) is set to a non-empty string which creates a red border around the control and shows an toolTip (errorTip) ONLY when the mouse hovers over the control. Question: Can you force immediate display of the toolTip (errorTip) rather than waiting for the user to hover over the control? If so, how?
