Animating A Typing Text Effect (Swish)?
Jun 20, 2007
The last I have been using Flash was around 4 years ago and I have forgotten quite a bit. I remember I used SWISH Lite to create a typing effect (as a blinking cursor is typing a line of text one by one) and later i just could take this generator animation of my text and add it to my Macromedia Flash.I have installed the new SwishMax Trial, but I really don't recognize where I have to go in order to get this text effect generator running.

I saw the tutorial for the typing effect of Text. I just want a little enhancement. Do you know how to add a scrollbar in case the text overflowed to the bounds of the supposedly text field?

best way to create an effect as if text was being 'typed' onto the screen (i.e. text appears 1 letter at a time, not as a single block)?I was considering creating an array containing each letter that needed to be typed, then using a timer to display each letter in turn... but this seems rather inefficient, is there a better way to go about this?

I have made a couple of 'advanced rollovers' if you will, yet one thing is annoying me about them! When you roll over the button it looks great, yet as soon as your mouse goes off the hit area, it just suddenly shoots straight back to frame 1 of the movieclip , is there any way to animate a scene once the mouse has gone off the button, so it looks smooth when rolling over and when rolling off?

I am animating a number of items using the Move effect. I am adding each item to an array after it has been added to the display list and once all items are added calling the play method, passing an array of the items to it. Only the last item plays in my animation.
Here is my code:
MXML: s:Move id="coinFall" yFrom="-400" duration="2000" />
public function showCoins(n:Number):void{
holder.removeAllElements();
var targets:Array = [];
if (n>=2.5){
[Code] .....

I am trying to create a simple login page but coming across a number of problems. Firstly I have a text field - in the properties section it is classic text and Input text. However when I runt the flash file. I am not able to input anything in the text input, Why?
I should mention I am using CS5 - I get a silly runtime warning: Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts.

I'm wondering if there is a way I can see if a user is typing into a input field.
Like if they are typing into the field a variable = 1
And if they are not or the field is empty it is = 0

I want to have a text field that, if a certain letter is typed in it, shows (visible = true) a certain movieclip. I need to cause 26 separate movie clips, (or one movieclip with 26 frames, one per letter), to respond to each letter of the alphabet when letters typed in the text field.

my text was working fine before, but for some reason now it's displaying weird characters. For example the accented vowels in spanish firefox will let me type but google chrome won't. It's like all my keys are mismatched or something.When I try to type Thai, musical notes were showing up in it's place! But it's only for this one swf. I created a brand new swf with an input box and typed thai/spanish and it worked fine, it's only for this already existing file. I have no idea where I can even look to solve such a problem. Is it a publishing setting? Could it be the flash settings in the html?
Where do I look that would effect the keyboards input like this? It worked fine before and I haven't been playing with the text at all. I recently added external interface then commented it out and still doesn't work. The font is _sans which usually displays every language fine.

I started out with Swish, then I moved on to Flash8. I have quickly realized that it's a lot more difficult to achieve animation. Probably due to my lack of education with actionscript 2.0 and Flash8. Are there simple shortcuts to being able to do something as simple as making a photo spin around and explode? I haven't explored Flash8 much, but it doesn't seem as easy as Swish was. Of course, Swish seems obsolete compared to more advanced flash programs.

I realize this is not an official swishmax template but I was wondering how others learned to edit the swish 3.0 templates sold on template monster?
When I opened the swi file that came with the template it looked like this in a preview after TM assured me it would look the same as on their site.
When I contacted them again they said I needed to install the fonts that come with the template.
I was able to install some but for others I got a message that said :
"PFB files for type 1 fonts can't be installed directly. Please install the associated PFM file"
Where do I get the PMF file?

I really like the text effect Pom used in the footer contest, and would like to use the same grid-type method of creating mc letters but with a different effect. i understand how to change the parameters and shapes of the letters, but can't seem to figure out which piece of code is purely for the explosion effect. basically, i want the letters but with the 'Repel' effect from[URL] here is Pom's AS:
[AS]
cellSize=3;
radius=10;
damp=.85;

and here is the .fla using the repel effect using pre-made mc:

Basically, I just want to do ye old text fade on as if being typed on to the screen. Letter by letter, and in some cases word by word. digi-poetry. I've made a BlackerMC which starts as a black square, then flickerfades away leaving some faded lines (like old school crappy green monitor style), and then the lines fade away. I've placed copies of this BlackerMC over each of the characters/words I want to 'type' on.
What I would like to do is animate a TriggerMC along the lines of text, and whenever it rollsOver a BlackerMC it triggers the Blacker to fade away. I know how to set up BlackerMC to look at its distance to TriggerMC, but then there will be like 500 BlackerMCs enterframing away. Is there a way I can make TriggerMC just look at 'whatever?' MC is under it, and then trigger whatever?MC to play? How to do this the smart way, entirely with action script and Dynamic Text?

Basically I have a menu with submenus. The submenu is a Sprite with two children, one is a square for the background and the text on top. On mouse over, I can change the color of the first child, the background, but not the color of the text, the second child. Here is the code.
ActionScript Code:
private function subMenuItemOver(evt:MouseEvent):void {
TweenLite.to(evt.target.getChildAt(0), 1, {tint:0x9ca26e}); // Works
TweenLite.to(evt.target.getChildAt(1), 1, {tint:0xffffff}); // Doesn't work
}
The menus are created from an xml document and the color is assigned with TextFormat.

I'm setting up an animation to do the following: 10 bulls are running across the screen, they each stop at a position that I would like to be defined by a numeric variable contained in a text file. So currently each instance of the bull has a script to run the animation (see below).[code]so the only value in that script that needs to be defined by a variable is the x position. Can someone explain how i can import values from a text file (or xml file) as usable variables in the animation script?I've no problem importing text to be displayed in a dynamic text field, I'm just having a huge problem getting numeric values to import correctly.

I've made a little file with some signpost movie clips that do a little animation on mouseover and mouseout. I then wanted to set the text on each of them via actionscript i.e. sign1.sign_text.text = "Checklist: Before you arrive"; etc. This code puts all the right text on the signs when it loads, however as soon as you mouseover it, the text reverts back to the original placeholder text in the movieclip (when it gets to the second keyframe). How can I keep the reference to the text it has at the beginning of the movie clip?

I've got an xml file that is providing text to the swf. The flash file is supposed to go through the xml file and each time it reads a node it is supposed to create a text field on the stage with the text from the XML file. Then it is supposed to animate along the y axis for a short time, pause for a few seconds, and then continue animating along the y axis. (like a news ticker on a News Channel). Anyways, I've got the FLA reading the XML file fine and it even creates a text field populated with the text. But I can't get the text fields to animate inside the loop.[code]I can get the first text to animate. But I don't understand why the "i and j" version doesn't.
