Actionscript 3 :: Recommendation For Object Oriented Programming Preferrably With A Focus?

Jan 22, 2010

I know there are a billion questions regarding what books are best and I'm sorry for posting another, but all of them see to have an orientation to a language I am not familiar with.

My problem is I learned to program before OO became big, then I stopped programming for a few years, moved into web design, moved into coldFusion, and now find myself in PHP, actionScript and FLEX.

I have muddled along for quite some time, but I am really struggling with my understanding of OO and would like a good book that will help me out with it. If that book is geared towards Flex and AS3 then that would be awesome, but if it had no language specified either I would be happy. I'm just not sure how reading a book oriented to Java or whatever is going to help my understanding of AS3.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Detecting Text Over-run In TLFTextField

Mar 2, 2012

CS5 AS3 - TLFTextField are in use and a requirement. I have text fields that are dynamically changed by XML for different languages. I control the fonts (Embedded, but can vary by project builds). Characters are not mono-spaced.
 
I need to detect if the inserted text exceeds the fixed text's area. I only want to want fully displayed characters.
 
I do not want to use the  'length' method that just counts the characters in the text string.

I am building in some self test for all the fields used in a 30 language users CD with captioned movies and GUI screens.

Flash :: Using Embedded Fonts With TLFTextField?

May 23, 2011

I'm using Flash CS5. I've got an embedded font loaded from an external SWF. As far as I can tell, it's embedded properly - it used to work before I switched from the classic TextField - but I needed to switch because I need the advanced ligature support. My code is:

//setting up...
var text:TFLTextField = new TLFTextField();
text.width = 530;
text.height = 330;

[Code]....

Edit: Just tried to switch the font to Arial, and it fell back to Times New Roman again. So apparently the problem is not with the embedding, but with the way I assign the font - meaning this may be less complicated than I originally thought. Scratch that, Arial worked after I changed embedFonts to false.

Actionscript 3 :: Flash - Can't Get TextLayoutFormat Of TLFTextField

Nov 4, 2011

All I want to do is get the formatting properties of a TLFTextField and apply it to another TLFTextField. This was simple using the classic TextField:

var textFormat:TextFormat = text1.getTextFormat();
text2.setTextFormat(textFormat);

TLFTextField has a getTextFormat and setTextFormat function, but they are both very buggy. getTextFormat only works if you change the selectable property to true, otherwise it generates a null object error. setTextFormat generates a NaN error when some of the properties of the TextFormat object are not null.

The TextLayoutFormat object is supposed to be used instead for TLFTextFields. You set the object by doing the following:

var text1:TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
var textLayoutFormat:TextLayoutFormat = new TextLayoutFormat();
var textFlow:TextFlow = text1.textFlow;

[Code]....

But this just returned null. Does anyone know how to get the TextLayoutFormat so I can apply it to another TLFTextField?

Flash :: TLFTextfield Broken After Upgrading From CS5 To CS5.5?

Apr 3, 2012

For my project I am using the following:FlashDevelop 3.3.4 RTMFlash Pro CS 5 (libraries only, no code)Some time ago we started using TLFTextfields. One of the things I had to do was include the tlfruntime.swc file from the Adobe Flash CS 5 folder in the FlashDevelop project. Note that I copied this file to the project folder and included it, I didn't just include the file straight from the CS5 path. I have since been given a new computer that has Flash CS 5.5. I recompiled one of my swf libraries in CS 5.5, and now when I run the program, I get:Illegal override of createTextLine in flashx.textLayout.compose.ComposeStateI figure the tlfruntime.swc being included in the FlashDevelop project is out of date and needs to be updated with the one from CS 5.5. So I copied the tlfruntime.swc from the CS 5.5 path, include it in the FlashDevelop project (instead of the older file), but now I get this:

Illegal override of softKeyboardActivatingHandler infl.text.container.TLFContainerController.Can anyone assist with what else I need to do to get TLFTextfields working again in CS 5.5?UPDATE: I have updated FlashDevelop to 4.0.1 RTM, and now I get this error:Illegal override of createGeometry in flashx.textLayout.elements.FlowGroupElement.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Access TLFTextField From Constructor?

Nov 15, 2010

In the first frame, a MovieClip is created by ActionScript and placed on the main stage (This "MovieClip" actually uses a base Class called TextFieldHolder which extends MovieClip.) The Movie Clip has several TLFTextFields with instance names placed at various x/y positions in the MovieClip's first frame (the first frame has a stop(); ) Here is the trouble: When I try to change the values of the text fields in the Constructor of the TextFieldHolder class, I get an error that tells me that the TLFTextFields do not exist. I have found that I can access and change these text fields at any other time or place except for in the Constructor.The strange thing about this problem is that it does not occur in all of my projects.I am currently working on several different fla files and each one used TLFTextFields in the manner that I have described above. Almost all of them are displaying the problem, but some of the earlier ones are not.
