ActionScript 3 :: Flash - How To Modify Label Component Text
Oct 29, 2009
I'm trying to modify the text of a Label component that I already placed on the stage in as3. I'm having trouble getting the text to change though, it just stays the same based on the initial text I typed in. I'd like to eventually have the label contents change dynamically. When I compile the swf, the two labels have the original value I gave them when I put them on the stage, not the startDate and endDate values.
My code looks like:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import fl.controls.Slider;
import fl.events.SliderEvent;
import fl.controls.Label;
public class slider extends MovieClip{
[Code] .....
I'm querying an XML web service and am parsing 3 nodes per the code below. I want to send the resulting value to a label component. When I place the Label component on stage, and name it lowtemp_label, remove the default text value of Label and play the SWF, nothing shows up. How do I ensure that the lowtemp_label gets the returned low temp value?
I have a problem when dealing with label component on AS3. The text was blurry on one application but not on the other. I have used the same code when dealing with the label component except the one with clear text used scaling to scale the label component and not being used on the other.
I have a Label component in my library list, and have placed an instance of it on stage named lowtemp_label. I've written the following AS3 script in my Main.as file that grabs 3 nodes from an XML web service. I want to send each of the 3 values to 3 separate label components. However, when I run the SWF, my label components do not display the data. How can I remedy this?

I can change the color of the label in Flex Builder, I can even BIND the color to a variable and that works, but I can't find the Color PROPERTY in order to change or reference it programatically! What is the ActionScript 3.0 code to change the font or color of a piece of text in a Flex RIA - or is caring in what color your text appears too bizzarre a request for a RIA? I wrote whole applications after just minutes of "learning" flex, how come it's taken me three days and I still can't change the color of my stupid label?

I have parsed 3 nodes of my XML web service and want to populate 3 separate label components with each of the values.I've written the following actionscript 3 code,but when I play the SWF the labels do not appear. How do I place them on the Timeline for visibility only during certain frames?

My dynamic text box has the variable font2 and the buttons have the following action script:
I'm wondering if you can take the stock Flash CS5 scrollbar component and modify it to use a graphics for the thumb and track. I see that you can modify the art of the component, but it seems to have the 9 slice thing going on so it scales nicely... but doesn't work right with a graphic. What I need is to have a scrole like that attached photo.
