View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Access A Mc Or Textfeild From A Non Document Class?
Sep 21, 2010It used to be simple to access an object you put on the stage like a mc or dynamic text field by simply using _root.instanceName ect. Now I see references to making references to the Stage and such like:
private var stage:Stage;
stage = stageRef;
and I am still confused.
What I have going on is, I have placed a movieclip on the stage in Flash and gave it an instance name of Cell_mc.I have a cusom class that extends MovieClip with the following imports
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;
[code]....
This Class is tied to a set of MovieClips in my Library.
I have a listener: this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,pickUp);
And a function:
private function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.startDrag();
[code]....
I get the following error whenever I try to access an object I placed on the stage from anywhere other than the document class:
1120: Access of undefined property Cell_mc.
How do I access the cell_mc that is already on the stage from this non-document class?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Populating A Single TextFeild With Array Elements?
Oct 4, 2010Specifically Im trying to make good use of some error messages by populating them to a TextField.
What I've done is to collect all the error messages in an array. I've been working on this for the better part of a day but I can't seem to get it to post as I'd like it. Im seeing the results but each result is in its own TextField. I really want them in one TextField that expands as they get added, each line being separated by a return ''.
I feel like Im close. here is what I've got:

Jun 13, 2011I am working on a large project that displays a fair amount of text.how to best handle the formatting of the text globally? what is the best way to handle the text formatting on a global level ? Through the TextFormat class, through style sheets, a combination of these two depending on the specific situation ?

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Use Textformat And Tabstops

ActionScript Code:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use TextFormat On Multiple Frames?
Feb 19, 2009I must be missing something, but how on earth do I make it sothat I can set TextFormats for the whole movie and not just theframe the actionscript is on.My movie is basically a video with cuepoints that triggerdifferent keyframes that display text appropriate to what theperson featured in the video is talking about. In other words it'slike a powerpoint presentation that's run by an FLV file. Almostall of the blocks of text I'll be displaying are bulleted lists andsince, for some odd reason, bulleted lists aren't available usingthe standard Flash GUI text formating tools I need to apply themvia ActionScript. All the ActionScript is in its own keyframe atthe beginning of the movie timeline. I've setup my text formatingcode like this:
var bulletlist:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
bulletlist.bullet = true;
bulletlist_field.setTextFormat(bulletlist);
While I have successfully applied this to a box of text onthe first frame of the movie, I haven't be able to apply it to texton any other keyframe. So from what I can tell, I have to referencethe above TextFormat actionscript for every frame I need to use iton, and since I can't have duplicate TextFormat values, that meansI'd have to create a new instance with a new name for each frame.This seems rather inefficient and frankly ridiculous consider thatthe other ActionScript that I wrote seems to apply to the wholemovie. And what's the point of using ActionScript to format text ifyou have to redo it for every *******' keyframe? Is there somefunction that I'm missing somewhere to allow me to use one set ofTextFormat code on multiple frames or is this simply a dysfunctionof Flash and/or ActionScript 3.

View 1 RepliesTextFormat - Change The Font Size
Jan 14, 2011In my movie, I have a dynamic textfield on the timeline starting the first frame and going to the end. At various points during the movie, I change the text in the textfield (and that works just fine), but I also want to change the font-size when I do that. I've tried using setTextFormat to a different TextFormat object, but that doesn't seem to work. Maybe someone has a better idea?

textBox1_fmt.size = 22;
What I would also like to change though is the font family to Lithos Pro and set the alignment to the right. Do you need to embed the fonts? If so, then how?
I then draw a TextField onto the screen like so:

otherwise it reverts to some default setting. How can I change this default setting?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Using XML Attributes With TextFormat Properties?
Jul 22, 2011So I'm experimenting with using XML in Flash, but I'm confused as to how to use the properties in an XML tag and assign it to a TextFormat property.
My XML:
Code:
<mytitle fontsize="100" fontface="Tw Cen MT">Embracing the Zeroes</mytitle>
I know how to access the fontsize property's contents, like so:
ActionScript Code:
var myTitleSize = myXML.mytitle.@fontsize;
And I'd like to use it this way:
ActionScript Code:
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.size = myTitleSize;
But it doesn't change the property in my output SWF...
