I am using a button to input text from a text input and displaying it in a text area using following code.
public function sendMessage():void
{
mytextarea.text = textinput.text;
textinput.text = "";
}
The problem I am facing is , whenever I add new line or others it replaces the previous text, I want the previous text in text area to stay there.

View 1 RepliesWhen you select text in a Text or Label or TextArea (or other) control in a Flex application, the selection is shown in white text on a black background. Always.
I have a request to change that — and it seems to be a simple enough thing to want — but I can't find a style (or property) anywhere that permits that. Any ideas out there about how to do this, or reasons why it definitively can't be done?
I have more than one variable defined:
_root.savefile.data._continue = 0;
_root.savefile.data.health = 1;
I am using:
_root.savefile.data._continue = 1;
_root.savefile.flush();
to save ._continue, but I don't want the other variables like health in the savefile to be updated.

We are still with Flex 3.5 but i may consider Flex 4 if the solution is easier.
As per my observation this does not work in flex4:
<mx:TextArea id="taMytext" text="
hi
san"/> //use of
does not work here
<s:Button label="Click it" click="Myfun()" />
Using script it's possible:
public function Myfun():void
{
taMytext.text="hi

}
I want to create a small chatbox for my site. But I can't use text background in a textarea. I don't know if I should use textarea or something else. Some users can use background color on their own text. I tried the .background command with textarea but I think it does not support it.

View 1 RepliesI have a movieclip with a TextArea inside it with the instance name writeUps_txt.The movieclip is added to the stage with actionscript and I want to set the text inside writeUps_txt after the movieclip is added to the stage.Why won't the following work?
infoPages[i].writeUps_txt.text = blurbs[i];
I've checked everything and all of my arrays contain the right objects so everything is kosher there. To add to the problem, this line:
infoPages[i].title_txt.text = locations[i];
does work and the only difference is that title_txt is dynamic text.Is there a difference between how dynamic text and textAreas behave in this regard?
I have a movieclip inside it is a textarea. It is in the libary and the MC is exported for actionscript as "bulletPoint".When trying to set the text I try [code]1119: Access of possibly undefined property text through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.is there a way to get this to work without giving the textarea a name? I would rather use getChildAt if possible.

I want to add an event listener to each word inside the textarea. Is this possible?I have a function that shows a list of inventory items in a game I'm making. I put the list inside a textarea so that I can scroll through the inventory, but I want to be able to allow the user to click on each item. For Example:
Potion
Antidote
Sword
[code]......
there are 2 items on stage, one is the "button" with instance name myButton and a dynamic text field.so the action script goes this way...
myVar=0;
myButton.onRelease=function(){
myVar++;
trace("click");
}
the dynamic text is initially zero (0) and when i click the button it counts the clicks up to here every thing works right but...when .swf file previewed in html after clicks if refresh is pressed the number is going back to zero.i want to upload this file and use on webpage.
I need to know how to save and load a very small amount of variables to a computer running my swf file. It is so that a person can keep their progress in a game if they decide to close the .swf and reload it later. It has nothing to do with a server. The most related thread I have found was [URL] but it has no solution.
View 4 RepliesOk, so I've read up on the TextArea class in Livedocs, and i've been looking at XML explanations and their implementation into Flash for about a week. I've tried this EXACT code on another Flash document, except on the main stage instead of embedded inside of a
separate movie clip, and it worked perfectly. Can anyone explain why the text won't display in the TextArea? Does it have something to do with it being inside of a movieclip and that being placed on the Main Stage? (By the way, proxy.xml is just a copy of the xml produced by my CFM proxy for easier usage, in case you were wondering.
