ActionScript 3.0 :: Organized Text Blocks - Text Appearance On Screen
Aug 12, 2011
I have a problem regarding text appearence on screen. I have few TFL dynamic text fields in CS5.5 that update each time according to users choises (a dictionary, in hebrew if it matters). As a text field I can't break lines or organize the text in paragraphs or any other way, the corrent situation is a text block that is not pleasent to read, it's need to be organized (it's for children so it has to be as clear as possible).
In Flex Mobile Project, Text Input shows blocks instead of showing arabic text. Labels are working fine with Arabic.
Is there any way to show Arabic text inside text input?
My code sample is
<fx:Script> <![CDATA[ /* Import all the easing classes so its
[Code]....
Since, it is for flex mobile project, when I input any text in arabic, it shows separate characters. Arabic is a language that doesn't have separate characters. It should combine letters to form specific word.
I am just starting to use the TextArea component in Flash CS3. How do I change the font size, style, and color of the text within the textarea? Can I also change the textarea background color from white to something else?
Just actionscript? [URL] i use tweener to animate blocks of text created dynamically but like that, on Browse effect database, take a look on Scatterbounce. just so cool! just actionscript???
How do I avoid changes in the appearance of my movie at different screen resolution? For example, how do I avoid having my circles become ovals at different screen resolutions?
I have this button and on this button I have the following AS. It works just the way it is suppose to (miracles really do happen), but now how do I control where the loaded movie appears on the screen? Code: on (release) { loadMovieNum("E:\FLASHMX docs\flashTips\bushbug.swf", 1); }
I'm making a tile-based game and for most of the game, your character is on a tile-based array. But I needed to be able to put a movieclip on the screen for text, and putting it onto the screen the normal way wouldn't work because it would be below the tile-based array.
So I used this code to attach it:
It worked! But then the problem came up... how would I make it so that when you press A, it would go to the next frame? Two problems actually.... one is that I don't know how to put code "on" the movieclip, only inside its timeline, and two I don't know what code to use to make it go to the next frame, for example if its on frame 1 go to frame 2, if its on frame 4 it would go to frame 5.
I used this code inside the first frame of the movieclip:
I am trying to make scrolling text appear on a few screens, so that when I click on a button to go to the next frame the characters of a sentence will appear one after another as if someone is talking. This works a few times however when I go back to the first frame the following error occurs and the text no longer appears??
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at rollingtext_fla::MainTimeline/runthree() at Function/[URL]::apply() at SetIntervalTimer/onTimer() at flash.utils::Timer/_timerDispatch() at flash.utils::Timer/tick()
This is my code basically the same for each new frame stop()var talkinterval=setInterval(runone,60)var i:Number; i=0 function runone() { var text:String = "Restrictive signs come in red and blue circles."; text1.appendText(text.charAt(i)); i++; }; b_next.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nexts)function nexts(e:MouseEvent){ clearInterval(talkinterval) gotoAndStop("h") }
I used to have a little text panel (that sat with the color, swatches, and align panels) that I was able to open up and edit text size, color, underline, etc with. It had a much better text editing ability then the properties panel, seeing as the properties panel does not even bother to allow me to underline text or to highlight and edit a single word in a whole text box. Now I don't have it, I can't find the damn thing anywhere, and I want it back. How can I get it?
I've searched for the past hour before even posting, so please dont yell at me What I'm looking for is a post somewhere on kirupa recently that demonstrated an organization of information that could then be sorted by the different categories they had. But the quality that sticks out to me about this specific example is that when you clicked the way to list the categories by, the information would move (with easing) into its new position according to how it was being sorted.
I am still using flash MX. I'm pulling random text from a textfile (array.txt) into movieclip instance textbox.[code]All is good, but now my question is if I can have a text effect as well. For example having the random quotes typed out as they appear.
When I create a TLF text area that is editable at runtime (which means that it can get a user input at runtime) I set the text direction to the 'right-to-left' definition in both the 'container and flow' and the 'paragraph' sections and set the language for Arabic or Hebrew at the 'locale' setting. I also set the text alignment to the 'align to start' mode. Now at runtime there's a stange thing. When I try to click with the mouse cursor on the editable TLF text-box, it's not displaying the text icon cursor and don't allow me to insert text inside.
But when I move my mouse cursor over the right side of the editable TLF text box, it change his appearance to the familiar text cursor which indicate that if you click here you will be able to insert text input inside. So my problem is how can I make it that only when I will hover over the TLF text box itself, the mouse cursor will be changed to text cursor icon and when I will hover beside its right side, it will remain at the normal cursor mode.
I need to put together an editable text area that has a custom caret (cursor) which is different from the default blinking vertical line. Is the caret a "skinnable" property of text input? note that I am not asking about the mouse pointer cursor which can be set using the CursorManager.
I'm creating a quiz application using Flash CS3, but it's been such a long time since I've used ActionScript and I'm a little bit stuck.I've created an input text box in the first frame of my quiz program. A person will enter their name into this text box (which I've called "nameInput") and then click the next button to proceed through the quiz.However, when I get to the results page I cannot figure out how to get the input name to be displayed automatically in the dynamic text box (which is called "nameOutput") when the user enters the frame.
I'm adding captioning/subtitles to my video (FLVPlaybackCaptioning) using dfxp.xml files. Everything works great when the video plays at it's initial resolution (640 x 360). The positioning of the captions is perfect. But I've included a Full Screen button and when the video goes full screen, the captions appear but their position is off. They are higher on the screen and they actually move upward 1 or 2 lines after they initially appear. I cannot seem to control this and am not sure why it only happens in full screen mode. In the component inspector I have set autoLayout to true and to false and it does not effect the captions one way or another. I cannot seem to find any support for this.
I made a trivia game app that lets me enter text into input fields when the app is fullscreen on my trivia laptop. When I try running the swf on my home laptop, sometimes it lets me enter text, sometimes it doesn't. I can't remember what I did on my trivia laptop to allow text entry under full screen. Can someone please shed some light on under what conditions Flash allows it? I'm wondering if I set up the trivia laptop to run swfs using a debugging version of Flash or something, but I can't remember. As far as I can tell, it's just using the Flash player.
I recently created the following webpage: One challenge I'm having is on the About and Pricing pages. Is there a way to have my text size increase depending on how big the users screen is? Doesn't need to be exact, but if I'm on my iMac the text size is quite small when full-screen.
I have a .f4v on a layer using the FLVPlayback command. On top of that I have a dynamic text layer. It plays fine in a browser or at the exported resolution. When I use the command ("fullscreen", "true") or when I open the .swf and go full screen using CTRL-F the text disappears. I have removed the video and put the text on a solid background layer to determine it is the video causing this. I have also tried to convert the .f4v to a .flv and embed it in a .swf in multiple manners but the end result is always the same as the text disappearing.
I know people would have asked this question many times, but i have a different problem. I want to make a fullscreen flash website like now my design is a bit different, i want my background to be full screen (i don't mind if its not to proportion) but the text on it should not stretch in-proportionately
I have an array and a number to count (dont ask me to do a for loop, because it is already a loop in the fact that it calls a function that calls it!) to count and post text to the screen, but its not increasing. It starts on Up(good) and then freezes, i created an output of the number and i get first "Undefined" then "NaN" freezes at the bottom.
PS.Code Here:
ActionScript Code: stop(); var score=0; dave2.text = score;[code]....
I am programmer , C# is my programming language.I started known about FLASG a few day ago. I am very, very interesting about its.My boss want i make a text display in bottom screen and scrolling from right to left (same as display on TV).But, i used to keyframe to solved this solution but they are slowly and not smooth. Now i want text display running smoother.I not good at Flash .
I found some code to dynamically load images from an xml file and animate as a slideshow/movie. However, I need to do the same for text. I have created the animation for text in a movie clip, but now I need to dyanmically load text from either an xml or txt file, drop a phrase into the movie clip and animate over the photos every few seconds. (There will be about 10 sections of text to animate throughout the movie).
I have a news scroller which is working apart from one thing: The end of the text string does not quite scroll completely off the screen - it disappears into thin air near the end and THEN starts scrolling from right to left again. How do I make it so the text scrolls completely off the screen before returning?
I need to take a textbox on the movie screen, fill it with text and then apply an acute arc to the text about the middle of the text. how to arc text like one of the arches on a McDonald's sign. This has been great and has give me some ideas, but I can't manipulate it to do what I want. I am looking to arc the text like the static picture I have attached (which was done in photoshop) of the target arc I am going for.
Problem: I am trying to get a very simple text resize going, for my main content area in a flash website. My aim is to get a button, that on click, increases the text size of a dynamic text field.
[Code]....
This is what I tried, I am very new to Action Script, so excuse the futility of my code.
