I have html content in a textfield, image width is same as textfield width but flash still wants to wrap text next to the image - is there any way to fix this?
I have a bunch of text I am working with from XML and when I import it into my text field it becomes automatically indented on the first line. Is there a way to lose this indent? If I take off word wrapping it does make the indent go away, but then of course the text spans across further than the text field horizontally.
Here are some of the properties I have assigned to the text field I am using:
ActionScript Code: myTextField.htmlText = txtPath; //txtPath is the loaded and parsed XML myTextField.multiline = true; myTextField.wordWrap = true;
when I put WordWrap on in an input textfield, all characters off the width of the textfield get put on the next line. However, when I look at the htmlText property of that textfield, I see no evidence of such a line break.I've learned that's because it's a soft line break, and not a hard line break. My app has a feature that requries me to know the number of lines in the textfield. I had been calculating this by simply scanning through the htmlText property of the textfield and counting up the presence of "</p>". However, the wordwrap soft line breaks don't leave any evidence of such in the htmlText property
I'm trying to change the height of a wordwrap textfield. When I change the width property everything seems to work properly (the height is increased if width is small). But when I try to change height, nothing happens (I would think that the width will increase if height is too small). Here's the code
Code var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); tf.font = "Verdana";
I have this weird thing happening with flash and a dynamic textfield. Basically, someone rolls over a marker on a map, and a tooltip pops up with a dynamic textfield. The textfield is set to multiline=true and wordwrap = true, and I defined a specific width of 160 pixels.
The problem is, some of my text is jumping to the next line, some of it is just getting cut off. So if I have a line like "The Cat Jumped Over the Box", On one line I will see "The Cat Jumped" and on the next line I would see "the Box". It looks like it is masking out the "over" line and not pushing it to the next line.
It's not doing this for everything, just some longer lines. This is a really weird bug and I have tried for 8 hours to get this fixed. Has anyone ran into this problem before?
I am using three fonts of the Helvetica typeface,embedding them with the embed metatag, font files inside project, openType.I noticed that for some reason the bold font looks identical to the roman font.After 4 hours of ____, and testing with five fonts, it turns out that:
if i change the name of all the font files at once, and change the reference to them in the code, all of the fonts work the first time i publish. the second time i publish (without any changes except pressing publish a second time) some fonts overwrite others, randomly, for instance :
roman looks like roman bold looks like roman, light looks like roman, black looks like black, rounded looks like black.
the only way i can make sure that flash embeds all of the fonts, is to change *all* of their names and publish. additional info:second time i publish the swf filesize is much smaller than first time ( -flash really doesn't embed anything).traces to which fonts are registered show all fonts are there,no errors
I would like to use the word wrapper for datagrid header, the problem is that it cuts the word to a new line, what i need is to add - sign after the word cutted...what i mean is: admins- trator
I have a Tree object in my Flex code. It's width is 100%, and it is contained by a Panel with width=200. I am using a custom itemrenderer that extends TreeItemRenderer.I need the text in each node to word wrap if it's too big (as happens often). I have triedlabel.wordWrap = true;
Is it possible to capture the image loading event like when the image is fully loaded and such when it is assigned to the htmlText of the textFiel???
I have a scrollPane that contains a textField which is loading an image via img tag where there is no scrollbars initially because the textField is not large enough in the beginning, but it is larger than the scrollPane after the image is fully loaded.. and I am trying to update the scrollPane once the image is fully loaded..
I think this new version of Flash (10) might be bugged. I'm setting up a text field the standard way in the IDE, setting behavior to multiline and embedding the standard font characters. If I do this, the text field only wraps the LAST word of a paragraph! :o
I have a text field with a set height and width and that allows word wrapping. When I add text to it, I dynamically change the font size until the height of the text is smaller than the height of the box, allowing it to properly fit. The problem I am running into is that the box is fairly thin by necessity, and some longer words (like "Australia") are broken during the word wrap. So, perhaps "Australi" will show up on the first line, and "a" on the second line. However, because they satisfy the height requirement, they aren't shrunk any more. I need a way to detect this and continue shrinking these cases so they fit without the break. Here is the code for dynamically shrinking the text to fit the height[code]...
I am loading text from .xml in the text field which is linkage properties set from library Identifier: "box" I wont to text file wordWrap=true and autoSize "left" but is is not working
Details:- text filed instance name="name_txt"; creating duplicate moview part is given bellow. for (var i = root.firstChild; i != null; i = i.nextSibling) {
tried following the Embed Font example here: http:[url].... exactly with absolutely no results.When I add txtField.embedFonts, the text no longer shows up, and without embedFonts, the fonts are just Times New Roman or something. Regardless, the [Embed source="..."] syntax described in the example does not seem to work. Has ANYONE gotten Embed fonts to work in AS 3.0? Second, when I add wordwrap = true to a text field, the text disappears. (it used to work fine. It stopped around when I started trying to embed the fonts, but it doesn't work even if I remove all embed code.)
I am loading an image into an html textfield. The image loads fine, my problem is that Flash keeps wrapping the image in a <p> tag, so the image is never aligned to the top of my textfield.
im doing a chat application like thing an i need to enable the use of smileys. e.g replacing with a movieclip smiley. i can replace it , but its either aligned to the left or to the right.
is it possible to place it at a given pos, like in real html.
I come across a problem about textfield which blocked me right now.Here it goes.Is it possible to add background image to the textfield?Since there are only 2 properties related with background of textfield i found so far.Is there any solution to add a custom background image for it
I am facing very weired problem. I have tried and had success loading an img into a dynamic textField at run time. But sometimes it takes littile long to load img and gives me an impression that image is not getting loaded.My textFields html, multiline, autoSize, wordWrap properties are set to TRUE. But still sometimes i dont get my image loaded in to the textField. My images are also having size of max 7kb.
when i insert an image over xml into textfield with htmlText, it automatically makes some kind of padding left and above them image. Is there a way to get rid of that padding?
Yesterday I spotted what seemed to be a minor issue with having a linked image in a dynamic textField. Basically, this doesn't work as expected: HTML Code: myField.htmlText = "<a href="[URL]"><img src="image1.jpg" /></a>"; You get the hand cursor when you mouse over the image, but clicking does nothing, unless you inadvertantly click an invisible 1px border around the image.
I've tried: Loading an external image (<img src="images/image.jpg" />) Loading a bitmap in the library (img src="myImage" />) Loading a movieclip from the library (img src="myMC" />)Using textField.getImageReference: myField.htmlText = "<a href="[URL]"><img src="image1.jpg" id="myImage" /></a>"; var imageButton:DisplayObject = myField.getImageReference("myImage"); imageButton.buttonMode = true;
But absolutely nothing works. All of the data being loaded is from a database, and I've got a couple of lengthy methods in mind that I could use to dynamically attach movieclips with link references, but it involves edits to MySQL, the XML output and a couple of PHP files, as well as the AS.
After a creating a new test file from scratch, it seems that the real culprit is when you embed a font into the textfield. I initially tested a new textfield with absolutely no formatting and the linked image worked perfectly. As soon as I added a font to the library and embedded that into my textfield, the link stopped working.
I have a textField that I'm populating dynamically through loadVariables. The text that is being loaded dynamically is HTML with an <img> tag. Once I autoSize the texField the image is removed.
I have a dynamic text field called a_txt on stage. And following code
Code: a_txt.html=true; a_txt.htmlText="<p>Currently there exists a temporary <p><img src='ico.jpg' height='25px' width='25px'></p>setup to compile the documents in to a self running CD (flash presentation).
So basically I'm embedding an image in the dynamic textfield, which is html enabled using img tag.
However the img sticks either to the left or right border of the textfield (by using align attribute of img).
But if I want to place the image anywhere between the text, tht's not possible.
What I have so far is a carouselmenu. I got a actionscript page (page1.as) where I load another one (page2.as) into. page2.as is a Sprite (or MC whatever). I can load and display the sprite in page1 successfully (several instances). I also have an eventhandler when i click on an instance of page2. The problem now is that I have defined a textField inside page2 that is also being displayed. What's not working here is that when I mouse over the text, I cannot click on it (the cursor turns into the cursor that appears when I mouse over a text as in MS Word or similar for being able to mark the text). So I thought of making a bitmap out of the text field. how to transform a text(field or string) into a bitmap?
I want to display a uncommon layout into a HTML Textfield, using AS3/Flash CS4. This is what I need to create, is it possible? [URL]... I have tried some CSS styles, but I didn't found any way to align a span to the left. TLF is out of my range, the related project is closed to CS4, but if it is the only way, someone tell me!
i'm making a small "add news" movie for a site in actionscript. When I insert an image in my textField, I can only move the cursor with my keys and not with my mouse anymore. I put the image always in front. I also have to click one time in my textfield, otherwise my text appears under my image. When I click it aligns to the right.
