ActionScript 3.0 :: Use Text And Image Variables For Printing?
Jul 30, 2009
I have been working on product configurator with AS3 for several months now.I am not proficient with AS3.Now, it seems that maybe my design is all wrong.I
I have a main timeline that has movie clips showing images of different options for the product.On the first frame, I use buttons to select the choice for option 1 from the Option1_mc.Then I store the choice in a variable.I use a button to go to the next choice (frame 10.)
On frame 10, I use buttons to select the choice for option 2 from the Option2_mc.This is stored in another variable.
There are about 10 options that are selected and stored in variables.Some are text values and others are instances of images from the Option movie clips.
I made a Print_mc to use for printjob.I can't get the values of the variables to display in the first frame for printing.

I have a sprite that has a scrollbar that uses the scrollrect feature. The sprite has several bitmaps and textfields. When I print the outer sprite (The one with the scrollrect) all of the textfields outside the scrollrect are cut after the first line. In case anyone else is having problems with printing sprites with scrollrects using the bitmap printing option fixes and prints most of the stuff in the sprite. Excluding all textfields outside of the scrollrect. This however can be fixed partially by embedding your fonts.
So now the only problem left is printing multiline textfields that are outside the scrollrect. P.S. Imho the scrollrect should have nothing to do with the printed area of the sprite because the printJob.addPage has a printarea parameter.

My Flex 3 app prints pages just fine from browsers on Windows using FlexPrintJob (not the browser print function). However, on OSX, the left and top margins show up larger and the page gets pushed off the right and bottom. Basically, the scaling is screwed up, and I can't see any way to adjust the margins in code.Has anyone seen this discrepancy in Flex printing between Windows and OSX? Are there any known workarounds? I've searched all over and I can't find any good info on this (other than 12 unresolved printing bugs in the Adobe Jira DB)
PDF Generation is one route and while its a valid solution for some folks, I need to print directly. I'd like to see stuff like using regular Flash PrintJob, monkeypatches to FlexPrintJob, or just ways I can format my DisplayObjects before sending them to FlexPrintJob. None of the scaling options in FlexPrintJob work. My Flex Component is at 1.0 scale. I'm not sure what else I can do except for mess around with regular PrintJob.

I have problems understanding the way you can print from flash, reviewing the documentation I found the PrintJob Class nad I'm trying to make it work. It was easy with AS2, but now I can't get it to work, I need it for AS3.The issue is, I have a code generated chart, and want to print it, with some extra stuff, but to begin the chart would be fine.this is the printing code I have and an image of the stage. The commented code I've tried also, none of them working. I think that's because the way it's handling the chart, and the (maybe) Sprite the printJob is trying to add.

I am trying to make a box where a student enters their name and then clicks a button so their name is rememered and shows up. I have created an input text instance called "nameText" and a button to submit it called "submitMe".
Second, in this game I would like to keep track of when a specific button is clicked. In this game I'm having incoming freshman into college decide if the statement applies to college or high school by clicking on a button (saying high school or college). I want to keep track of their choices and display them on a result page, then clear when I click the replay button on the results page. Each button has its own name for each of the 12 questions (hs1 for high school c1 for college, and so forth until hs12 and c12).
Third, I'm looking for any advice on how to print in flash. The person I am developing this program for wants students to print their results (with their name on it from the "nameText" input field) and be able to hand it in to her in class. I am not sure how to do this and I can't seem to find a clear way that works. I have made a button called "printMe"
Otherwise I've attached the swf file so you can see what I'm thinking.

I'm trying to print the contents of a scrollable text field. Why after all these years this is such an impossible task in Flash is beyond me. But maybe I'm overlooking something?
Right now I have two text fields. One for display and one for printing that is hidden from the user and is roughly the size of A4 paper. The content of the print text field is scrolled as many times as is necessary and each time is added to a print page.
The function looks like this:
function printText(e:MouseEvent):void {
var printer:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
if (printer.start()) {
[Code]....
Unforntunately this is not very reliable because the size of the print text field does not correspond exactly to the size of the A4 paper and of course the print margins set by the user can differ as well. This results in an overlap of text between the different pages coming out of the printer.

Its all about printing a Sprite that holds (besides others) a TLFTextField instance thats textFlow has been imported from an external XML file.
Everthing works fine, the content is formatted in correct way, the textfield is aligned at the desired coordinates so that i have nothing to complain about concerning what is visible ON THE SCREEN.
I then instantiated the PrintJob class, added the sprite to the job and sent it to the printer.
But no text from inside the TFLTextField is printed. Except for that, everything else (I added a background color to the sprite holding everything and a normal TextField instance with dummy text) is processed well.
Here is an excerpt from my sourcecode:
ActionScript Code:
var canvas:Sprite = new Sprite;
canvas.graphics.beginFill( 0xFFFF00 );
canvas.graphics.drawRect( 0, 0, 800, 600 );

I have a dynamic text field that scrolls. When I print I can only print what is viewable on the screen and not all the text being scrolled. How do I print what is not viewable within the scrollable text field?
Oh yeah, and I don't want to parse the XML content and dynamic Flash conent into several diff frames to print like that since I am using 1 scroller to handle like 30 diff pieces of XML & Flash driven content.

I have a dynamically generated swfs with text fields in a html page which have to be printed/have pdfs made from them. The text is virtually unreadable when printed. I have tried setting the sharpness settings on the text fields to highest, rendering the text fields as bitmaps, nothing seems to improve them. Is it possible to get text to print as clear from swf in html page as from plain html text? I have seen the PrintJob class in as3 but this seems to relate to only one swf at a time. Is there possibly a way to use this for highres printing?

I am using Flash CS3 and AS2. I have a dynamically generated text string that is displaying in a multiline dynamic text box. This dynamic text box is inside a container movie clip which contains everything that I want my user to be able to print (other dynamic text fields, graphics etc.) When I view my swf on screen it displays exactly as I intended - if the text exceeds the text-box length, then it word-wraps. But when I print the container movieclip, the overflow is hidden and does not wrap to the next line.

I'm trying to print an MC that is on screen with a dynamic text field in the MC - its printing just fine but the placement of one of the elements is off. Basically I have a dynamic text field centered on the stage, however when I print it, the text field moves to the very right on the printed page, while the rest of the contents of the MC stay centered. To clarify on the printed page I basically have this nice page with centered text, but the dynamic textfield is moved all the way to the right of the page.

Let's say I have
var i:Number = 6;
And I need that the 6 would go in place of (i) down below.
this.bg_img(i).visible=true;
So everytime variable "i" would change different background images would change their visibility at the same time.

I've got a bunch of mc's which I've put in an array. With these mc's you can do a lot of different things, like dragdrop and rotation. I also got a button which on mouse down, changes the image of the mc. It only changes the image.. not the size. So far so good...But when I've clicked the button and the mc's all change their image... They are not able to dragdrop / rotation anymore. I do not understand why this is happening... because by clicking that button... it doesn't change the names of the mc's.....here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
library = new mc_library();
library.x = 100;[code]....

I am building a map which has different layers on it, all on top of one another, all 700x700px and all movieclips. I have a print button (PrintUp) which sends the movieclips to be printed, however when I print, they don't sit on top of one another, they come out separately. How can I get them to print on top of each other like they are in the swf?
The two movieclips are "Background" and "Grass"
Both 700x700 and exactly the same X&Y.
Here is the code below:
PrintUp.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Print);
function Print(e:MouseEvent):void{
var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
if (printJob.start()) {
if (Background.width>printJob.pageWidth) {
