View 2 RepliesI would like to make a dynamic text field wich write the instance name of the symbol when the cursor is over one. I have more than 1300 symbols so it would be a really big help if I wouldn't have to write thousands of lines.
View 2 RepliesWe are developing a RIA for restaurant industry. Our screens have buttons, movie clips, Grids, containers etc etc.
If the user logging in has preference set for being 'left handed', we need to tweak the already designed screens to alter the layout. I.e. swap screen left and right.
I am guessing that as of now, all the containers which have horizontal layouts will need to swap the order of their children.
Got a dynamic textbox that I want to be fixed in width and increases in size upwards (i.e its anchored from its base) upon retrieving larger text. Here's the code.
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myShowXML = new XML();

View 3 Repliesloading dinamic text from rollover on buttons, with:Code:textfield_txt.text = "Example of text loaded on dinamic field"But sometimes the text will be longer than the permitted field _width, missing some letters.Is it possible to make the text flow, like a marquee or a news ticker, from left to right when the text is too long, and then go back and start again? I searched for it but is always use movieclips
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know what's happening with development for fonts that write from right to left?I have read about it and it's unsupported!! This is ridiculous considering flash is supposed to be a global tool, and yet there are still languages that are not really supported!THe hack for it is to apparently download a font that has the fonts inverse, and then you copy what's typed into a textfield which copies the characters into this reversed textfield with fonts reversed.

View 1 Repliesusing a one line TextField with a fixed width that display text from the keyboard. I'd like that when the display text become greater, it aligns itself on the right, and let appear all the new characters, making the left ones disappearing. That is to say, it slides from right to left, letting always the right part of the text visible. I've tried using the "align" property of TextFormat set to "right", but it doesn't work (it just good to align a paragraph), and cut my text.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to achieve something that I'm sure it's not that complicated, but unfortunately I have not clue how to do it.I have created some text fields. And what I want to do, it's that when the user clicks onthem, in order to start writing, I want a specific movieclip to dissapear.This could be achievable if I knew how to make the textfield behave like a button; but I don't know what code I need for this, as onPress it's not working at all.

1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.
I know this is a tutorial on this site but I'm having trouble finding it, and its been a while so I can't remember exactly how to do it. I just need to make a dynamic text field that you can edit via text file.

View 3 RepliesI'm running my head against a wall here and I'm not sure how to tackle this problem. Background I'm making some sort of movie player with subtitles overlayed on it. I'm using the root timeline for my movie timeline because this greatly increases development speed. The subtitles are created with the texttool, and I make them dynamic textboxes because I need to reference them in AS3. I cannot wrap them into a movieclip because they need to be in sync with the root timeline
The user should be able to enable or disable (effectively showing or hiding) the subtitles. The way I did this is by adding an event listener that listens to Event.Enter_Frame on the root timeline and a global boolean to indicate whether subs should be shown. In the enter frame event listener I search for the textfield by root.getChildByName (the name is the same each time) and show or hide the textfield accordingly.

I am making a learning system where a user selects a "lesson" from a list of lessons.I currently have a lesson read from a txt file and loaded into a dynamic text box depending on what lesson the user selected. I have a problem with this though as:1) I need to have tables, math symbols, superscript and subscript which are not currently available in html tags flash understands.2) I want to put interactive elements like drag and drop etc. in the lessons.3) I need to include a search function so a user can type in a "word" and it will load lessons that the word appears in
View 3 RepliesI can't understand how I should do to make a dynamic text field in cs5. I have tried to find a solution in weeks now and there is always the same answer. (Window > Properties), select a text type from the pop‑up menu to specify the type of text field: Dynamic Text.But the thing is that I can not find where in the properties I can select the type of text field. Where can I find It?? I have my properties panel on the right side and not at the bottom of the page.

View 2 RepliesBasically, I have created a short exercise for an elearning programme that requires the user to drag and drop an object to a number of predetermined places - some of which are correct, some of which are incorrect places. Therefore, on release of the button, the object will either be placed in the correct position, or else return back to its starting place.This is my current code in AS 2.0:
on(press){
startDrag(this,false,0,0,400-this._width/2,450-this._height);

Whenever I am trying to do, the button rollover work, and put the dynamic text on top of it. The area outside the text is reacting to the rollover, but when I rollover on the text, I lost the rollover effect of the button under.The only way I have found to work around this, is to create another mc, invisible, on top and covering the button and create a script to activate the button rollover effect under... but is it the only way?
I don't have to do all this with static text, but the font react bad with rollovers or some other effects.
I am tying to make a number appear in a dynamic text window. I have a dynamic textfield on the stage with an instance name called count_txt. The code that I am using is shown below. Both tace statements show a value of 100 but nothing appears in the dynamic text window.
var count_txt:Number;
var n:Number;
n = 100;

This is a really easy one that I thought would be easily found on google but I can't think of the terminology. I'm using CS4 and AS3 with a few multi-line dynamic text boxes beneath one another. When I populate the top text box I would like it to automatically push down the other text boxes beneath it when the content flows on to extra lines.
At the moment it only wraps to the gap that is between each text box but then stops when reaching the text box beneath. Is there a property to allow for this (I've worked in Silverlight and there was on controls there) that I can just set or will I have to manually implement this and call functionality to re-set all the controls y properties each time I change the text in the text box?
