ActionScript 3.0 :: Format All Texts Using Style Sheets?
Jun 21, 2011I am working developing a big project and I have a question regarding the formatting of the text, project wide. Is it a good idea to format all of the text using style sheets ? Including here, buttons labels, headers, and so on.
Or is it a better idea to use a combination of style sheets and the TextFormat class depending on the situation ?
Using style sheets project wide seems like a good idea but there might be things that I am missing and I would like some advices from people with more experience.

May 7, 2010Site loads two flash files at the same time with multiple dynamic text fields that load .html files with external css style sheets. The site works almost perfectly when viewed offline, but when you upload it the text boxes sometimes load and sometimes do not. I'm a graphic designer so I really don't know actionscript 3.0 (or any version) very well... so I'm attaching the footer .fla file which by itself suffers from the same problem, and the other files are too big to upload so here is the link to the other .fla file used on the homepage

Feb 13, 2012I'm trying to autosize my combobox, according to the textWidth of its biggest items. I've got the right textWidth without setting the textFormat, but by setting textFormat, with a bigger font size (like 30), the textWidth stays the same !

Regex :: Using Regular Expression And TextFormat To Style Text Between HTML Tags?
Mar 1, 2012I've been struggling with this problem for a while:I have a string containing HTML and I'm using a regular expression to get the characters between the tags. I'm then attempting to apply a TextFormat to those characters.The problem is that I'm using the TextField's "htmlText" property instead of it's "text" property (because I don't want the HTML tags to be visible). So, the character index that's returned from the regular expression is incorrect, when I apply the TextFormat.Here is some sample code which illustrates the problem:
var txt:String = "<b>Sample</b> string with bold text";
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(tf);

View 14 RepliesActionscript :: Generate Animated Sprite Sheets At Runtime From Vector?
Feb 8, 2012I would like to use Bitmaps in my Actionscript games.For me this represents a large change in my workflow as I have always used Vector but Bitmaps are really so much faster to render in certain circumstances. As far as I can see, 90% of all my game assets can be bitmaps.Firstly, are there any good tools for working with Vector to BitmapData? Libraries or OpenSource utilities?I know you can just draw to a BitmapData, and I do that, but what about Animations? What about a MovieClip of a laughing cow? How can I render that MovieClip at runtime to some kind of Bitmap version?But more complex than that What about situations where you do not have the MovieClip in a raw form?Imagine 10000 cogs turning at the same rate which is generated with code. This is hard work for the processor, so drawing it to a Bitmap for the duration of 1 revolution, would replace 10000 cogs with a SpriteSheet. I could destroy the cogs, and keep the SpriteSheet. Can anyone offer me any resources or google keywords I can search for, not sure of the technique but it seems to make sense? Especially with Starling..

Oct 11, 2006On my Mac OS X it didn't matter, the setStyle Worked Fine,However I've transfered my files over to PC and working with the exact same things all the styles work EXCEPT for the setStyle("themeColor", "color");On this PC it's always turning it from the default "Greens" to a solid gray shade of borders, this is very weird.
For Example
Code:
// Have a button component on stage
import mx.controls.Button
_global.styles.setStyle("themeColor", "haloOrange");

It works just fine, do I need to edit the core class files for something? I'm extremely confused, I inport the class files in the first place so I can do public vars and strict data type them to that component.
