How do I manage to force dynamic textfield create with actionscript to act like a text created with textool
I've a movie clip, with some animations and other things... also a Texfield (dynamic) that i need to change from a AS file.
The dynamic Texfiled instance name is 'tfRandomGeo'
I export the movieclip to AS as com.ui.AniBanner;
And this is the 'clean' class:
Code:
package com.ui {

01 02 03 04 I'd like to make cliccable every page to do something on a rollover and a onRElease.
can I do it ? or I can covert a Textfield to a Button? or it's better to create a button and then duplicate it and changing the innter text ?
i'm making a flash movie that's going to load some text from a text file. i don't know how long each of the variables within the text file will be though, so i need to resize the text box that they are going to be displayed it. is there anyway that i can do this so that all of the text is displayed and not cut off by the text box being too small
View 7 RepliesI have a project which has loads of FLA's with embedded textfields on the timelines. We now need to localize this project into Arabic, with right-to-left text (pulled in from XML) - my understanding is that this is only possible with TLF textfields.
It's going to be a huge task to manually convert all these texfields to TLF. Is there a way to programmatically set a normal textfield to be a TLF textfield?
Could someone please outline the proper syntax for formatting text in a dynamically created texfield using actionscript 3 please? I understand the textColor but for some reason txtfld.textFont = "Verdana"; doesnt work for me.

View 2 RepliesI have a container with a vertical layout inside which I have two other child containers "A" and "B". n the first container "A" there is a component that I would like to resize dynamically based on the available display size. To to that I tried listening to the resize event of the main container and do my measures accordingly. That works somewhat until the parent container reaches a clipping size : container "B" gets clipped earlier than "A" because it contains much more stuffs : As soon as the parent container reaches "B"'s clipping size, it does not resize anymore (so no more resize event either) thus preventing me from updating my component's display in "A".
View 1 RepliesI have a flash file that is pulling images in dynamically from a PHP page. The images will come in all different sizes so I need to resize them once they are loaded to fit in the containers that they are being loaded into...I thought onEnterFrame was the best way to do this?

Code:
onEnterFrame = function (){
for (i = 0; i < 9; i++){

View 1 RepliesOk, got a problem that's driving me up the wall. I have 3 objects: tab, tabShadow, (both movieClips) and menuText (a dynamic text field), all of which are themselves contained in a movieClip. What I'm trying to do is have tab & tabShadow resize based on how big the dynamic text field (menuText) is, and then align everything. The ultimate idea is to create a dynamic menu based on XML.
The problem though is that a) the textfield won't resize even if the amount of text fed it is too big, and b) because of (a), the movieClips won't resize based on the textfield. I also can't figure out a good way to align them (just making the ._x / ._y values equal puts the textfield way outside the other movieClips).
Here's the actionscript code, and I've attached a copy of the .fla (done is CS4, but saved in CS3 mode) just in case it's a matter of the centerpoint being off or something. This is all in the container movieClip.

I need to create a designer tool in Flash for laying out how kitchen worktops/countertops look. I found something similar to what I need:

If you scroll down the page you place a rooms dimensions onto the workspace, and resize it. If you notice, when you resize the shape moves and a measurement shows on each edge.
I am working on a site at the moment (product catalogue) for this company. I have a problem with the images i am using. It is taking too much time and effort to resize all the images in a photoediting programme. I was woundering would it be possible to automatically resize the images within my area. I have the images loading up within a layer mask. I was just wondering if it is possible to tell flash to set a true scale setting within the area mask. I have noticed while editing image size in photoediting programmes I do suffer from a fundamental problem. Even when I constrain the proportions within an image re-size flash dos tend to distort this a little.
PHP Code:
function setSubComboArray() { mySelectedItem = main_cb.getSelectedItem().data; title.text = main_cb.getSelectedItem().label; // trace(mySelectedItem+"/"+mySelectedItem+".jpg"); loadMovie(mySelectedItem+"/"+mySelectedItem+".jpg", "_picWin"); loadVariablesNum(mySelectedItem+"/"+mySelectedItem+".txt", 0);}
out with autoresizing dynamic img popups with javascript.

What I want to do is load an image dynamically into a movie clip either created physically inserting it onto the stage or using .createEmptyMovieclip(). After the image has been loaded I want to be able resize the movieclip with the image inside of it, or somehow get the .height and .width of the image or the movieclip with the image in it and then have it resize keeping its proper dimensions.
Ex: I have an image that is say, 800x600. I want to be able to load that image in dynamically into 2 seperate movieclips (one being a main display, and one a smaller thumbnail).

FYI: I'm following the Flash Blogger tutorials listed on [URL] with Flash 8. I've noticed that everything works wonderfully as far as bringing the blog content into the dynamic text field; however, my only problem at the moment is Blogger will automatically resize my images, so it doesn't mess up the current template in html, but of course, Flash does not (out of the box).
I need a way to define the width & height of the images in the text field to fit inside the dynamic text field they're in. As far as I can tell, the tutorials listed on that site use an alternate method and don't actually resize them. Lastly, I thought about using CSS to adjust the img size, but from what I gather there are very few items at my disposal.
I have a gallery that I built from a tutorial I found online--it has an empty mc with a border around it, and when you click on a thumbnail an image is loaded into the mc and it fades in when it loads in and out.Ofcourse it works fine offline, but when I test it online the image will load in off-center, if you click the thumbnail again (after it has loaded the first time) it loads in the position it should be in. Here is the code I have on the first frame:
spacing = 1;
containerMC._alpha = 0;
MovieClip.prototype.loadPic = function(pic){

I have a SWF that pulls in movie files. I need a way to detect the size of the file that is being pulled in and scaling it appropriately..
Code:
import caurina.transitions.*;
var conn:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
conn.connect(null);
[Code].....
I was wondering if there is a way to auto resize the swf to fit a dynamic text field. I am doing a site and have text coming in from XML. some of the pages have a couple paragraphs where as some are much longer so when it is published the pages that have more text gets cut off.
View 4 RepliesI've seen this pretty slick flash site where the content is clearly loaded in dynamically and the browser scroller bar is used.
View 4 RepliesI want to use the UI Text Scroll component on a text box. When I make the initial text box,it is the normal 1 line in depth, based on the font size. When I paste the type into the box it gets very long, which is fine, but when I try to make the text box smaller using the transform tool so that I can make it fit the movie, it makes the type smaller as well. Is there a way to change the height of the box, without it effecting the text inside?
View 2 RepliesI am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I'm loading a few pngs/jpgs externally so they can be swapped out occasionally, and the issue I'm running into is when they are shrunk they become fairly choppy. Is there a way to have flash re-render them, or do something to smooth the resizing as opposed to going in and resizing every file manually myself?
View 1 RepliesI've got a little problem with BitmapFill, I'm trying to use a sprite as a container for various things and i would like it to have a filled pattern background. my problem is that i want it to resize the sprite to the height of the window but not have the background fill resize, and add more / crop as the window size is changed. to illustrate what i mean, please view the diagram attached to this post .
