ActionScript 3.0 :: Searching Through All Descendants Of XML And Replacing Instances Of Text?

Aug 29, 2011

cleaner way of searching through all of the descendants of an XML object and replacing all % values with actual values.

Professional :: Static Text After Line Break Disappears Unless At Small Line Spacings

Oct 18, 2011

in Flash CS4 I have static text like: Line1 and line2 It's in 9 point Arial Regular as a device font. If I set the line spacing below 3.9 the second line dissappears from the compiled SWF file. It still shows in the FLA file. The same thing happens at 6pt but NOT at 5pt or less.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multi-line Text Field Auto Line Break

Sep 26, 2007

When a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.

I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.

Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Searching In A XML?

Jul 3, 2011

I have 31 XML files, each containing words (A.xml for all the words beginning with the letter "A" and so on).The XML formatting is as follows:

Code:
<words><word>aaa</word>
<word>aab</word>
</words>

(All the words are in alphabetical order)All in all, I have around 400,000 words neatly organized in 31 XMLs.

1. The CPU randomly picks a letter from A to Z. Based on that letter, it loads the appropriate XML file. From that XML file, it randomly loads one word (and when it first loads it, it skips words ending in "nt" - last two characters).

2. When it is presented with the word, the user needs to type in another word, which must start with the two characters that the previous word ended with. Here, the same rule of "nt" applies. Also, Flash needs to check if the word is valid (must check inside the XMLs for the word.

3. If the word is valid, Flash picks another word that starts with the last two characters of the previous word. (Here, the "nt" rule doesn't apply).

Add Metadata For Searching To FLA Documents?

May 29, 2009

In Flash CS3 when you did Modify/Document it allowed you to type in a document Title and Description which were metadata searchable by internet search engines. According to the book "Brilliant Flash CS4" this is still possible in CS4, but I think they have removed the option, and the book is wrong. add metadata for searching to FLA documents or is this now gone?

Professional :: Searching Through .fla Files?

May 5, 2011

Usually when I am looking for a specific field name, section of code or variable, I will run a GREP regex search to search through my ASP files, which works great as they are just stored as plain text, however I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to do the same with ".fla" files.
 
The GREP search looks through all my files in one go and returns a list of files which match the search terms; but wouldn't work on .fla files as the actionscript is not stored as plain text. Possibly this would work if I converted all my ".fla"s to use seperate ".as" files but this would be a lot of work and I'd rather avoid it if possible.

I am not trying to read the value of the attribute but the name of attribute itself. if my XML string has apple attribute go here else if my XML string has peach attribute go there. I hope that makes sense

@title == "kirupa" only works when the whole word matches the value of "title" attribute, but i want to search a partial word.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Searching For Nodes In A List?

Apr 16, 2009

I do not know flash at all and i am writing some code in Action Script 3 and am having some trouble.

Basically i have a list that is read from an XML file.

I am busy writing a function to allow a user to enter a search word that will allow him/her to find the closest matching node.

For example, if the nodes are:

1) movies
2) music
3) books
4) plays

typing "m" will search and scroll through 1 and 2 continuosly after every button click but typing "mo" will find only 1.

Using mytree.findNode("label", search_word); //will only find nodes of EXACT name Using mytree.getNextIndexAtLetter(search_word, i); //Will only find nodes with starting letter of search word

ActionScript 3.0 :: Searching Through Array Of Objects

I have got an array of objects, each with properties, plus those objects have sub objects.

Example
Code:
Array[0]
Object.id = 0
Object.name = fish
Object.Array[0]
object.id = 0
object.variety = red tetra

So now it will go through every item in the array and work filterArray on it, but where to proceed from here?

Actionscript 3 :: Searching A Collection In Flex?

Sep 10, 2009

I have a collection in Flex and I have sorted it by a date field, so the latest elements appear first in my view.

In order to do this I have applied a sort field like so:

var articleSort:Sort = new Sort();
articleSort.fields = [ new SortField('published', false, true), new SortField('id', true, true)];
articles.sort = articleSort;
articles.refresh();

Now I want to be able to use a cursor to findFirst() in that collection based on the id. However in order to do that I have to also pass through the published date in the findFirst() method. This is a real pain as I don't have the published date at that time, (or it's expensive to get).

articleCoursor.findFirst({ published: modelLocator.articles.getArticleById(event.newArticleId).published, id: event.newArticleId });

As you can see I am having to get it from the modelLocator in my application, and basically look up the item...

Ideally I would like to pass a wildcard though for the date in the FindFirst() function, as the id is the only thing I care about when searching. However it seems it Flex I can't do that.

The other option that occurred to me is to resort the collection before searching, but that would cause my view to re-render (as it's bound to the collection) on the collections refresh event. Plus it seems rather silly to have to resort in order to search.
