ActionScript 3 :: Specific Text In Input Box Causes Certain Image To Display
Nov 2, 2010
I want to know how(and what scripts) to take words from a text input box and cause it to display and image Ex: if the text box said "smiley face" in it, then the image "smiley_face.jpg" would display on a certain movieclip and can be dragged around the stage and when a new image is loaded, it doesn't replace the previous image on the movie clip.
I have a string of text, but within this text I want to input a variable at a specific portion of the text. Now this string of text is taken from an XML file. So the XML file would look like this for example:
Code: <name>Sweep</name> <type>ATK</type> <target>AoE-EN</target> <caste>Warrior</caste> <desc>"This is a text"+temp.alias+"hey"</desc>
The <desc> is an example of a way I tried to make it work. What I want to happen is when I display the desc in my flash file, it inputs the alias (which in the xml is the name) of the item. In PHP this could be doing using EVAL() but I notice the support for that type of function is removed in AS3.
was just trying to make my site more efficient when its online. I have an image/video gallery. When the thumbnail is clicked, an image or video will be displayed in the container I have. Currently, the code is like
[Code]...
And if so, will it be in the cache or anything when it is loaded again within the click event?
I have a INPUT TEXT inside a mc called "txt mc" and DYNAMIC TEXT in the main time line.I'm trying to display what's typed in the INPUT TEXT (my_Input_Txt) in the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes (my_Dyn_Txt1, my_Dyn_Txt2, my_Dyn_Txt3).Here's the code. But it won't simply work perhaps because the INPUT TEXT is inside a MC. I need to have the INPUT TEXT INSIDE THAT MC while having the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes out in the main time line.
Actually I want to display my input box with in text like fill in the blanks. "texttextet textxtxtxtett __< input box >_____ hdh hd dhdhhhddd textxtx tetxtetztztztz __< input box >_____ textextetetxtextet."
I 'm trying to make it so an image will scroll with a specific line of text in a text field. I know that using delta of the scrollEvent will give me direction but everytime i try to increment and decrement the y value of the image the image doesn't follow the line of text perfectly it tends to "crawl" if you will.
I'm building a calculator in AS 3.0. On frame 1, the user inputs data into the input text boxes and hit's the "calculate" button (also located on page 1).The calculations are displayed in the dynamic text fields on frame 1but aren't appearing on frames 2 and 3. Anyone know how to get the calcs to show up on frames other than where the calculation button is located?
I want to be able to add the sum of 3 input text boxes and have the total be displayed in another text box. figure I set a variable and do something along the lines of: Number = "_root.input1 + _root.input2 + _root.input3";Or do I have to do this another way?Also where should I put the code? In a button? Or can I stick it in the frame to save complications of users clicking on a button.
Is it at all possible to put a image on the background of a text input component? I know I can change the color of the background, but I was hoping I could add a background image to it. IS this possible?
Here is the background. I am creating a Flash game, and I have a text box I am using to display text when the shooter misses the enemy. I would like to have the graphic pop up in the text box rather than the formatted text.
I was thinking of using the background property, but I wanted to see if this was even possible.
The following page shows how to load external images in AS3 DataGrid: [URL] (image and text are displayed in two columns) But I wonder how the image and text can be loaded together within the same DataGrid. Within one column: Image followed by the text.
I've a CD presentation using flash and XML. The CD includes a search facility. The search and rest of the things are ok but the problem that the result comes along with the picture that is reading from XML file. Sometimes the result contains more that one person's details with photographs. So scrolling the content area is necessary. I've tried to display both, the pciture and result (text) but the scroll bar component doesn't support picture. <img> tag i've tried but no result. Is there any other option for display the image and text withing a scrolling area.
I have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:
How do I display an image and text on the stage, that I load from an XML?I already know how to display a single image if the path to it is hardcoded in AS3:[URL] works just fine. It shows how you can display an image on the stage, that is in the same file as the SWf-file.
But the tutorial above does not cover xml. Who can show me how I can display the image on the stage, by retrieving ist path from an xml document? how to retrieve data from xml but they forget to mention how to actually display them on stage!

i created an image fade animation on the timeline... no actionscript involved.... now i want a series of text to slide up to the bottom of each image as the image fades in and out...if the image ia on image1, then text1 is displayed, before its gets to image2... text1 should be off..and image1 fades in image2...then text2 is displayed describing each image.. and so on...
i have tried alot of actionscript codes, but i think i need a special property to go about it...
I'm trying to extend the text input that comes in flex to support an icon, just like mac os x search text input has a grey circle aligned to the right, the text input has a addChild method, but it didn't work for me.
the last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code: // function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {
found that code to display html format text to dynamic textfield in as3:
var url:String = "http://edeejay.dyndns.org:8000/currentsong?sid=1"; var loadit:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); loadit.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
