ActionScript 3.0 :: Position MCs In The Stage Like Words Wrapped In A Page?
Jul 4, 2009
I'm trying to position some MCs in rows in the stage (MCs created dinamically) in a manner that when they reach a max width they jump to a row bellow, like words wrapped in a page with left alignment or, to better explain, like the image scheme attached. Each MC has a different width.
I've tryed a lot with no success. But I guess that I'm almost there. At this moment I'm using an array that retrieves each MCs width and another that retrieves the widths sum. Here's my code, important parts in red:

I am kind of new to javascript/html5. normally I would do that kind of stuff inside flash/as3. but since the iPad doesn't support that I need to switch the horse...I want to build a website where words are floating in position and size and if the mouse comes over one word it should draw some lines to all the other words. are there any frameworks one could use? the whole should look like a tag cloud with lines between the tags.

I have a an unobtrusive flash video looping in the background of a website, it is not essential to navigation - it is purely cosmetic.The flash video loops every 30 seconds.As this video is on all pages, it jumps back to the start when a new page is loaded.Is there an actionscript / javascript way to get it to remember the position it got to on the old page so it can start there on the new page?I do know that this can be accomplished by loading the flash movie in a frame as well as by having the subsequent pages load the contents in AJAX but I was hoping not to go down this route.I have seen other people ask the question and allude to the solution but they only posted that they got it to work without saying how.

i've a problem with my setFocus. i will use [n] to identfy the line in the code. this is a MouseEvent.CLICK - function from an other dynamic,non-selectable textfield. the textfield in work is one with an embeded font and some text in it.if i use line [3], i'll get the no blinking courser and no possibility to enter some words. also if i mark some other and click after that in the input-textfield directly there will no courser anymore.but this only happens in the first time using the swf. if i first click into the input-textfield, then set the focus to something else and trying the steps i wrote over here, everything works fine.

I have a sprite that I zoom out using the sprite.z property. Once the z property has been modified the sprite x and Y values do not match the stage x and y real value. So far so good and what I was expecting!
What I want to accomplish is that when the user clicks the stage the sprite tweens to where the mouse was clicked but I don't know what x and y position to send to the sprite. ( since stage 200,200 is something like 400,400 for the sprite depending on z value)
I tried Utils3D.projectVector using Matrix3D of the perspectiveProjection of the stage without success. (i.e. I get Vector3D(Infinity, Infinity, NaN))
I could fallback to scalex/scaley but sprites.z gives me the correct scale, perspective projection, paralax scrolling since I have sprites on different z level all for free. I would have to recode all that.

lets say i have a sprite on the stage and one movieclip inside it. now i want to tween or just set that movieclip x and/or y position according to stage position. so for example i want to set mc.y = - 100; (by which i mean -100 to stage, not sprite which mc is in.)

I have a stage bigger than the size of a browser, and I have a camera to navigate around the area.Now when I click on a button, I will have something pop up blocking the whole browser, like a lightbox effect with another box on top of the blocker.The problem now is, when the blocker pops up, its position is not on the TOP LEFT corner of the browser. I've tried stage.align, but it would makes the camera or other object on stage position run.So is there any other way I could get the blocker to position according to the browser, not the stage?[code]

I'm creating a presentation, where it involves importing a swf into a new swf ... ironically for me, that's the easy bit (works like a charm! My (probably simple) issue, is trying to import it to a certain placement on the page, instead of the default top left. I tried to "edit multiple frames" approach, but my poor old PC almost froze, as there are many frames involved.
if there is a simple way to import to a specific location on a new blank movie, I'd be very keen to hear how this is achieved.

I am trying to get some words from xml and put them an the stage side by side in the center of the stage. I achieved this by the code below. I auto resize textfield according to text inside. But this time there comes space between words. What I accomplish is to have autoresized and adjacent words without space between them.

I have wrapped text in a box I'd like to do a "zoom-in" effect on. It is 3 lines long in the box. I don't want to make the font size bigger and bigger because that will change the way it wraps. Do I have to "break apart" the layer until it's outlined? I'd rather leave the text editable.

I'm trying to use XML to convert the code that a Flex RTE creates to valid HTML. No problems on other HTML elements, but difficulty with unordered lists. I created a solution for moving consecutive LIs into a UL node. After trial and error, I came up with the following solution. My question is - surely there's a better way to do this?
for each (listXML:XML in xml..li) {
if (listXML.children().length() == 0) {
// list item is empty - make it an empty paragraph instead

I have Class1 with a read-only bindable property called age:
public class Class1 {
private var _age:int;
[Bindable(event="ageChanged"]
[Code]....
Of course the [Bindable] tag there doesn't make sense. But how can I achieve the same effect?
I believe I can dispatch some sort of ageChanged event from Class2 up to Class1 and then have an event handler in Class1 dispatch another local ageChanged event to which I bind Class2's age property.

This must have been done before and be really easy but I am a newbie so just keep coming up with compiler errors. I have built a website in flash cs4 using as3. I have set up the time line so that each different page on the website exists at a different position on the timeline. Sections have been labeled so that I can jump to that section upon button click.
What happens is when the link to the page/section is clicked the timeline jumps to that section and plays an animation that animates the page onto the stage then stops.("in animation") When you click another link the page should animate off of the stage ("out animation")and the next one animates in.
(I have set the time line up so that after each "in" animation there is a stop and after each "out" animation there is a stop.) This is where i'm having the problem.
I have set up event listeners for the button clicks But i can only get them to either play the "out" animation then that stops, using this code:
[Code]...
What i would like to know is how to add the two together so that when a button is clicked the information about what was clicked is added to a variable. The function plays the out animation then when that is complete checks the variable where the page clicked information is then jumps to that section on the timeline and plays it's "in" animation

I am having an issue with Mochiads. I have one of my Flash games on Facebook. Everything works just fine when the SWF is hosted by me. However, when I give it to Mochiads, they create a wrapper for the file, and the facebook transactions don't work. I suspect it's because of this code:
[Code]....
Facebook passes in some parameters when it loads the SWF, such as session ID and user ID. However, when the SWF looks at this.root.loaderInfo it is only looking at the Mochiads wrapper, not the Facebook canvas that loaded it. I am going to contact Mochiads and see what they recommend. I suspect it might be worth trying this:

I'm running into an issue where, if the dynamic text field I create wraps and autoSizes to 2 lines or more, the last disappears (sometimes partially). However, this only happens when I apply a DropShadowFilter to it. If I don't apply the drop shadow filter, it renders correctly. Note that whether or not the text renders correctly, flash seems to know that the text has wrapped and autosized, as this is how i assign the Y position of the second text field below it. See code below:

I've spend hours searching for a way to put one paragraph of text in one tree node in Adobe flex. How can I do it? I created a simple tree view but the text is cut after the right border.
So I tried to create a tree renderer. In the renderer I specified width=100 and the text wrapped. But the height of the nodes was not being calculated properly, so the text over consecutive nodes overlapped and got messed.
So how do i do wrapped text in a tree node?

I have a Flash home page which is part of a standard html website. A button needs to link to a specific position in the middle of an html scrolling page. My current script is:
on (release) { getURL("whats-hot.html#_cn"); }
"whats-hot.html" is the page, "#_cn" is the bookmark to the desired position. However, this is not functioning correctly and lands at the top of the page.
