I want to know how to style an anchor tag(eg: need to chnage color blue and I want to make it bold) in flash.
I created a flash widget that for rss feeds and Im not sure about how to add styles in it like css we using in dreamweaver.
Lets take a look at the script below, it is AS3..
what I want is..
1, I need to make that a tag should be looking bold and paleblue color.
2, Need to add a grey border after description ends. [code]...
I have a carsousel that uses xml to bring in 3 parts to the finished .swf ... an image; a 'tooltip'; some text. This all works fine and I have no problems with the code YET as soon as I try and add <b></b> to any part of the imported text section, to get it to appear bold or even italic, everything disappears. (The code is all taken from the 3D Carousel tutorial provided by your very cool site BTW

The text feeds into a dynamic text field called theText and this is in frame 1 of the fla. Like i said already, everything works fine the way it is set up now, the only downside is that I cannot style the imported text in any way and i would very much like to be able to make certain parts bold and even italic. I have a feeling it is the way the xml file is set up that could be causing the issues but I do not know another way of doing the same thing but allowing the styling.
In the Flash IDE, I have made a dynamic text field bold. When the Flash is compiled and run, the bold styling disappears. How do I retain the bold styling?

Bottom: SWF

View 3 RepliesI'm creating accessible content for a html elearning module. I'm including video, which I have successfully imported into flash, and added captions to by linking a XML document.The issue I am having is that my styling in the XML isn't working in flash, and my captions play in a tiny horrible font, making it very difficult for people to read, therefore not making it accessible content.I've used two tutorials online to create these styles in XML but neither are working.I'm using CS5 Flash and Dreamweaver.XML content is as follows: (I have removed my content for the script)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><tt xml:lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2006/04/ttaf1" xmlns:tts="http://www.w3.org/2006/04/ttaf1#styling"><head><styling><style id="1"

I basically have the same question as bder on the actionscript forums, namely if I can have my text anti-aliased if it is using an embedded font (Myriad Pro) to assign it to the htmlText property of a TextField and styling that with CSS. Everything works fine with the text embedding and styling (the font is the one I want, and all its variations - bold, italic - are shown correctly), except that it looks bad, i.e. not anti-aliased. Of course, I have tried setting the antyAliasType and gridFitType properties to all possible combinations.
View 2 RepliesI have a dataGrid component in flex. My grid has few rows. I simply want to make the last row bold. I just can't figure how to do it.
I thought about an idea : create a factory that gets parameters so that i can pass the itemRenderer the total count of rows. But, i don't know how to check the current row in the itemRenderer itself (and compare it to the total rows).

I'm trying to apply some simple CSS coding to an html'd dynamic text box, from *inside* Flash, with AS, rather than from an external .css doc.This code below should work, but doesn't. (I tried adding a period in front of customClass--nuthin'; I also tried taking out the fontFamily altogether, as I'm on a Mac and I've heard bad things.
/*
var styles = new TextField.StyleSheet();
styles.setStyle("p", {textDecoration:"none", color:"#000000"});

I have inherited a flash file which pulls dynamic text from an XML document. The XML relies heavily on node attributes. I need to add underlining, italics, etc to some of the text in these attributes and I can't figure out how to do it![code]In the text attribute, I need to italicize the word "italicized" and underline the word "underlined".I have styled whole nodes before using HTML text and CDATA, but can't figure out how to get the same effect within an attribute.

I have been creating an e-learning package using RapidIntake software. They have a quiz file that is used throughout the course. I've downloaded the source files to try to change the font size of the checkbox component but its not working the normal way?I've tested it by putting another checkbox in the middle which you can see in my picture. But the same code isn't working for the original checkboxes.The code I've used is est.setStyle("fontSize",16);Checkbox2.setStyle("fontSize",16);The test checkbox is the one in the middle thats working.
View 6 RepliesAccording to this webpage, the htmlText property in TextArea can handle CSS text style if using span tag. I want to format multiple tags in my code. Something like:
var tags:TextArea = new TextArea();
tags.htmlText = "<span style='color: rgb(165, 150, -90);
font-size: 0.955882610016677em'>street</span>,[code]............
It only gives me plain text. I was wondering if it is supported in the htmlText property and how do I get around this.
I created a TabNavigator with a bunch of NavigatorContent inside it, and want to skin just the buttons of the tabs themselves. So I added a skinClass, but looks like in the documentation, there's no skin part to target the button specifically.
Do I have to style the mx:TabNavigator itself to accomplish this? I was hoping not since I don't know how to style mx components and am more comfortable with styling spark.
Adobe's docs describe how to apply an outline to the pie chart by using the mx:stroke element within a PieSeries, however this only changes the border of the entire chart.
How do I add a border around each of the wedges in the chart?
When I enter with a dragged item into datagrid, a bold line appears over the active row of the datagrid (which is fine to show the active row), but the problem is that even after I drop the item into datagrid, that line remains there. It goes only if I enter with a new item (in which case a new line comes to the respective row again).
I am using custom handler for dragdrop event for this datagrid.

View 0 RepliesOutside a loop, I have created a text format object, and then inside a loop I go through a number of iterations of a textfield object. When I declare the var for the textfield inside the loop, as well as its affiliation with the text format object, nothing displays. If I declare the var for the textfield outside the loop, it displays without issue, however, it only displays the last iteration of the loop (obviously). Why can't I have multiples textfield objects using the same styling?
View 6 RepliesI need an actionscript solution that will allow dynamic text to drop into a text box with pre-determined dimensions (x, y, width, height), and then will scale the text up or down so that it is as large as it can be within those dimensions without scrolling. Wordwrap would be automatic, and there would not be any paragraph breaks. I have a working model using Flash's Classic text, but I would like to be able to utilize the in-line styling that TLF provides. I just don't quite have my mind wrapped around all the TLF features yet.

View 1 RepliesI'm dynamically loading a CSS file and text file to populate a TextField. As far as the default styles are concerned, no problem!But as soon as I try stuff like p.title, the style is not applied. Is this a restriction of the CSS support that Flash/Flex offers? Do I have to resort to the "simpel-style-selectors" like ".title" or "p" in my CSS?
Works:
Code:
.title { color:#FF0000; }
Doesn't work:
Code:
p.title { color:#FF0000; }
ps: I know that Flash doesn't support everything that CSS has to offer, but I'm looking for confirmation of someone who can tell me for a fact that the above p.class-selector is not supported.

This question specifically deals with AS3 and list components and styling a selected item, if that's even possible. I've got an XML/Flash Video player that lists the videos with a thumbnail and description in a list component. I got the source files from an Adobe tutorial:[URL]...I'm able to style everything the way I want it. The problem comes when I try to attribute a specific text style to a selected item. I understand how the information is being taken from the XML and looped into the list component. What I don't get is how you reference a particular item in the list and whether or not you can attribute a different style to that item when the event listener fires.

I am trying to style text in a dynamic text field with a background color (not the whole textfield background, but just of the text - like the effect when you select it). My textfield is on top of a photo, which might explain why I'm trying to do this.
