I want to modify the Flex 3 TextInput control to accept a tab character as valid input (The app allows the user to enter an arbitrary delimiter string for file output formatting, and tab is a common use case). However, clearly in the default implementation the tab key changes the form focus away from the selected control.
View 1 RepliesThe Flex TextInput component does not accept "ç" characters. Could this be a flex or a font issue or has anybody recognized a similar problem=
View 1 RepliesI have a TextInput field that should be restricted to either capital letters, lowercase letters, numbers and underscores. This is the code I'm trying to use to restrict characters:
restrict="A-Za-z½-9 \_-"
I'm using MXML for this Textinput component.
Unfortunately this does not restrict the character, which is the last character I'd like to restrict.
How can I add the backslash to the list of restricted characters?
I was just curious about the password mode display of the TextInput control in flex. The control displays asterisks instead of the characters themselves when the 'displayAsPassword' is set to true. Quoting the documentation,displayAsPassword If true, the field does not display entered text, instead, each text character entered into the control appears as the character "*".So, is there any way to change this displayed character, unless of course creating a custom component or extending the existing TextInput control?
View 1 RepliesI'd like to be able to add a character to a TextInput programmatically (say when you press a button) even when using IMEs (I'm using a Japanese IME right now). Normally this would be super easy, i.e.
protected function button_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
ti.text = "k";
}

Remove specific characters inside Spark TextInput while user typing on it, without this causing any distrbance like licking with mouse after the last character or alike.
View 2 RepliesI have a TextInput control which has a search functionality for the people in the system.It works fine. All I need is to style it in such a way that, it will be having search image on the right, which when clicked, will search. Its actually for look and feel part of the application, which will make the search box look much better.
It is exactly similar behavior implemented in search box embedded in Firefox.
I'm using Flashbuilder 4. I have a Spark TextInput control, and I'm implementing a "Copy" button that will copy the selected text only from within this control to the clipboard (pretty much like the RMB Copy does).
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to have a popup window with an immediately editable TextInput. This means that the user should be able to type inside the TextInput once the popup is displayed.
The problem is that I can't focus on the textInput. What happens is that when pressing a key for the first time, no text is inserted, only after a second key is pressed does the component gain focus and the user is able to type. For instance, typing "test" once the popup opened results in "est" being displayed...
For some reason the component only gains focus when the user explicitly clicks on it or types something. Programmaticaly setting the focus does not work.

I need to handle diagraphs and then convert them on the fly to the proper unicoderepresentation. For example when the user types in:SxMy app needs to replace it with:ow, I've been able to do the replacement no problem. The issue though is that once I've done the replacement, the cursor goes to the beginning of the textbox rather than the end.As I'm trying to update the user's text on the fly, this obvious doesn't work.

View 2 RepliesI figured out how to get a TextField to maintain focus when the tab key is pressed (using an event listener on FocusEvent.KEY_FOCUS_CHANGE), but what I'd like to do is control the size of the tab character in the TextField so that it is equal to five spaces. (I would just insert five spaces when the tab key is pressed, however due to requirements this is not an option.) Is this possible?

View 3 RepliesI am using text layout framework textflow in Flex 3 to get embedded images. In the edit field for the application the user can apply formatting. This all works fine except if the user deletes all the text they have entered and then starts typing again then the formatting is lost.[code]To setup the initial formatting then similar code to apply the formatting when the user changes it.So how can I stop the user from 'deleting' the formatting if they delete all the text?

View 1 RepliesI'm creating a learning activity for one of our biology classes. The basis of the activity is to test students ability to transcribe and translate DNA into other sequences.I have a dynamic text field where the student would type in a 36 character sequence.
I already know that I can use an if statement to see if all 36 characters are correct. I was wondering if there was a way to individually check each letter the student typed in is the correct one for that line. So if UUAACCGG is the correct answer, I want flash to check and see if the third character is indeed A or not.I know I can do this with 36 individual text boxes, but I was kind of hoping to get away with just one big text box.

I have an idea for a simple game/program and not sure if Flash is the way to go.After reading many articles I've come to the conclusion that if I wanna make my idea a reality then I need to do it myself but not sure where to start.Before spending the money on buying cs 5.5 want to make sure it can do what I need.So my question is can you have users input data that would then control your animations?
For a simple example:I want a user to be able to input a number then depending on the number a certain animation sequence would occur.So say a user inputs the number 10 then my animation would walk over to a pile of say apples and pick up 10 apples. If they input 5 the animation would pick up 5 apples etc...So my idea has nothing to do with apples but revolves around the user inputting numerical data which would then control what the animations do.
I've made a Flash project which uses a lot of animations based on Actionscript, and I've checked that in old computers those animations have a low framerate.So in order to optimize it, I thought to disable some of them depending on the capabilities of the user's computer, but the only thing I've found which could be useful is the property System.totalMemory
Is there any way to calculate the user's CPU performance in order to act in consequence?In these cases, would it be useful to replace some vector graphics with bitmaps? If I'm not wrong it would make use of more memory but would lower CPU charge, wouldn't it?
I am having a fair amount of trouble trying to control prevFrame on the timeline, with a play/rewind type motion. Basically, what I want to do is navigate between 3 keyframes on the timeline with 'next' and 'prev' buttons controlling it. I have no problem navigating forward, but when the previous button is pressed on the last keyframe, it just rewinds to the first keyframe. I have stop(); commands on each keyframe, but it seems to skip over the second keyframe when rewinding. The buttons are present throughout the length of the timeline. Here are my actions for the first frame;

I have a mc on the stage - a strand of photos moving from left to right, like a filmstrip. I need each photo to come to center and pause for, say 7-10 seconds (no user control). I can get the filmstrip to move left to right (but only once and only controlling the time from start to end)... But can I script it such that the clip will pause where I want it to and for however long I need it to? And then move again from the new point, to the next new point? I'm having no luck. I could motion tween, but want to keep it more compact (and more simple)... I'm working in flash 8 but publishing for 5...
