I've been having this problem for a long time and i still cannot resolve it, before I've just found ways aroound it, if I have dynamically loaded text deom an XML document and I want to use a Font from my own library, I can't because when i go to use the embedFonts statement it disappears, the everything else works fine, as long as i don't use that command. I have set up the Font in the library, given it my own instance name but it will not work. ?
Code:
target.createEmptyMovieClip("holderMain",target.getNextHighestDepth);
target.holderMain.createTextField("my_txt",2,0,110,345,120)

When applying text formatting to a comboBox, the text formatting appears perfectly on the dropdown menu items but the textField text disappears.Removing the text formatting from the textField makes the textField text reappear but of course there is no text formatting.
Is there a trick to this.

i used this code to change the text format but the text simply doesn't show up!
_global.formatCima = new TextFormat();
formatCima.color = 0xF0FFFF;
formatCima.size =24;
formatCima.font = "Verdana";
_root.txm1.txfd1.tx1in.txto.setNewTextFormat(forma tCima);

I have the following code:
Code:
this.createTextField ("imageText",2,95,0,390,96);
imageText.multiline = true;
imageText.wordWrap = true;[code].....
The problem:If I uncomment either of the imageText.embedFonts lines, my text will disappear... but the trace(imageText.text); will still return the correct contents. It's as though embedFonts causes the textField to disappear.Possibly related, (but maybe not), is the fact that the vertical positioning of the font is off. Even though I create the textField at Y = 0, the text writes somewhere around Y = 10. I suspect this is something else, but I thought I'd add it just in case.

I am trying to apply a transition to one of my forms. It seems like everything works fine except for the text disappears when I apply transitions like rotating.
I did a google search and saw that I have to embed fonts but I wasn't able to get it working.
I tried:
Code:
var myFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.font = myEmbeddedFont.fontName;
myFormat.size = 12; // the same size as the embedded font

I have this script on a specific frame and when this frame is called it should load an external movie into a mc that I have on my stage. The mc is named as holder and thumbURL down there is a vatiable which holds the name of the swf I'm trying to load into the holder.
My problem is that the mc dissappears when I try to load this new swf into it. Could it be something with relative/static paths?
onEnterFrame = function(){
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var mclL:Object = new Object();

i have some dynamically created symbols populating the stage through external packages. they show up on the swf fine.i add some different symbols to the timeline. everything still shows up fine.i turn one of the above timeline symbols into a mask, and ALL the dynamic symbols disappear on the published swf. I need to have a mask for some of the interaction I want to do.. but i obviously can't have it make everything else disappear! what's going on here?

I have a Movieclip on which there is a Video Player in the left and thumbnails in the right. The thumbnails are of other videos and aligned in 4x4 grid. Every thumbnail has a small description (textfield) below it. The number of thumbnails are dynamic and there may be n number of videos. So I have written a pagenation code for them, by which 16 thumbnails will be visible on each page. Now when I change one page to other, I need to rotate the thumbnails with text in Y axis and display new thumbnails and their respective text. I have embedded the font Arial and I am adding the textfields from as3. But even after rotation, the text becomes blurred. I am setting the following properties:
TextFormat:
colorsizealign
TextField:
embedFontsmultilinewordWrapautoSizeantiAliasType
Library Font:
Arial Regular (No Bitmap Text)

I've got the "Flash-Based Email Form Using PHP" working fine, when I use it on a regular swf. But when I use it loaded into a different swf, the text fields are invisible! It's working fine, and I get the messages, but I can't see what I'm typing! Seems like every textfield I add is invisible, not matter what. (input text).

I have a movie that has four different input text fields, all in separate movieClips. Inside each movie clip I have code that listens for the 'Enter' key to be pressed, and if it is, it stores the value and turns the focus off of that textField...which works great.

I have some textfields generated from code, and if I apply a drop shadow filter on them, sometimes the right or the bottom part of the textfields' border just disappear.
Code:
_passwordField.filters = [new DropShadowFilter(1, 45, 0, .75, 3, 3, 1, BitmapFilterQuality.HIGH)];
this is the line of code, which is responsible for this bug (is it a bug?) because if I comment it out, the borders render correctly.

I built my first simple class which just makes a movieclip move around randomly on the stage. I wanted to know if the "class" experts can take a look at my code and let me know how I can improve. I want it so that it is the most efficient code and can be applied to any movieclip that I want as easy as possible.

I have series of frames with stuff on them. Normally you can go through, and flash automatically removes them each time.
But if I setChildIndex, it remains on the stage permenantly and won't clean up. Is there anyway to tell flash to be able to remove it again?

It does not matter where I declare the var __w:Who in the constructor, as a class var or in another function entirely. The whole thing still operates normally but it's irritating not being able to set my stage.align=StageAlign.TOP_LEFT; in the constructor.... I am guessing it is something in my Who class because it does not happen if I declare any other vars the constructor in Who pretty basic:

I have a dynamic textbox, left justified, characters embedded, set on whole pixel x and y, 266 wide and 310 high. I then made that into a movieclip with registration at the center. I then use code to flip it on the Y axis. The text is clear before the first flip when you test the movie. Flipped 180 on the Y axis so that it is backwards it is fuzzy. Flip it 180 again so it is back in its starting position it is still fuzzy. I have tried doing it without code, just flip by entering a value in the transform panel for the Y axis, it still goes fuzzy.
I need the text on the backside of my panel to be clear. go here to see the full panel in action [URL] click through to "work" on the menu. I am attaching a very simple FLA with a flipping textbox mc and a plain textbox on stage to show how the text should look

My items no longer sit on top of the gray area outside the stage. When I try to move an item off the stage it goes under and I cant see it.I am using cs 5.5. I think I must have changed an option somewhere, becuase if I open up a new document everything is fine.

What is happening is, when I convert any object to any type of symbol, it disappears on my stage. It tests fine, but the symbol is invisible. This makes it difficult for me to see the overall design. Last time there was a folder that was just filled with about 10k blank files somewhere in the preferences for flash, but I can't seem to find it to delete those random files/ that folder. I'm on a Mac, and uninstalling/reinstalling flash does not work.

We are making a simple Flash game intended for mobile phones via Flash 5.5 using ActionScript 3.0.We are animating an array of objects vertically until they hit another object at the top of the stage.We instantiate each element of the array with one of 10 MovieClip animations.Each object has two event listeners; one to animate vertically and another to listen for a mouse click(which removes the object from the stage).We run into an issue when more than 10 objects are on the stage at one time.The issue is that the objects disappear sporadically and without explanation. We assume the problem is due to some type of memory/ garbage collection issue.Below is a snippit of our code that dispatches the MovieClip instances onto the stage.[code]What can we do in order for the MovieClips to not disappear?

I am creating a miner game (where there are pieces of gold and you have to catch them with hook).I modified the Main class to take all children of MovieClip(root) that has name "Gold" and them put them in an Array(boulders[]) where later check collision (I design and put on stage several "Gold" MovieClips for every level). When the player collects all gold (when the boulders array.length <= 0) then goToAndStop(nextLevel), where again it takes the gold MovieClips from the stage and if it's name is == "Gold" then put's it in the boulder[].
What happened: On the first level(frame 2 cause frame 1 is the preloader) everything is good - I have 2 gold MovieClips on the stage(in design mode) and all 2 gold are put in the array and displayed.
On the second level I have 4 gold and only 2 of them are put in the array and displayed.
On the third level I have 7 golds designed on stage, but only 3 are displayed and put in the boulder array.
It's almost the previous count of the gold(on the previous frame) are subtracted from the count of the next frame gold movieclips.I am placing the Main.as code:
public function createLevel(){
nextLevel = this.currentFrame + 1;
for (var i:uint = 0; i < MovieClip(root).numChildren; i++){[code]....

Is there a cross-browser solution to making a flash players background invisible? I have a swf movie that I want to sit on a faintly stripped background. I could place the same background in the Flash movie and sit it with CSS - using hacks for i.e. to make the backgrounds match up, but wondered whether there was a simple way of turning the background off?
