I have a problem with my input text fieldsI to type numbers with commas like "2,5" but flash only allows me to type numbers with dots, like "2.5"
In Sweden where I live we only use commas on numbers.
Now I have some input textfields that I must change so they work with commas instead of dots.
Everything seems to be a string right now & that kinda ruins the whole xml as an internal data structure thing, I don't need a big tree of string I need typed data :-/ Are there any changes I can make to either my XML files or my AS3 code that will force it to cast ints as ints and Numbers as Numbers? Or maybe some kind of type schema I can impose? Not really worked with XML til recently so chances are I'm just ignorant of the canonical way to deal with this...

I have flash 8 / windows 7 / firefox 3.6.3 / and i have tried the numberslock button on my keyboard, but i still cannot type numbers in the text field.
how to make Flash MX process numbers or letters written in a textfield one by one? For example, if you write 2463 into a textfield, it would make a calculation like 2+4+6+3 and print the result on screen.
View 2 RepliesI am populating a textfield programmatically and scrolling to the maxScrollH as the new text is added so the user can see the progression of text. This works fine, until I click the TextField, which sets scrollH back to 0 and places the caret in the text at the equivalent position.
textField.setSelection( text.length, text.length );
//sets the caretIndex/selection to the end
textField.scrollH = textField.maxScrollH;
//scrolls to max
This is the code that I am using to scroll when the textField text property is updated. I've tried adding a listener to the click event on the textField, which works in a way, but causes a visible jump.
override protected function createChildren() : void {
super.createChildren();
textField.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleTextFieldClick, false, 0, true);
} protected function handleTextFieldClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
textField.scrollH = currentTextFieldScrollPosition; //stored scrollH value
trace(textField.scrollH);
}
My guess is that there is a scroll position being calculated or stored someplace that I can't find.
I want to add a simple piece of text to the stage and add a listener to do something when the user clicks it.

Why are text fields not catching events properly in Safari when wmode is transparent (no problems in ie/ff/chrome)? The only workarounds I've found involve sending html form field events to flash through an external interface (eg. overlaying html form on flash).

How to add numbers to a dynamic text field. I have a dynamic text box on the stage called riglevel. On the same frame I set riglevel.text=1, but when I try to test the movie the text field is blank.

View 27 RepliesI have drawn a textfield (instance name - my_Text) onto the stage. In my actions I have a variable (called 'myFrame') which is an 'int' and the value is a number drawn from an xml feed. Now when I trace the variable 'trace(myFrame)' the correct number displays into the output window. However, when I try to display this variable, using 'myText.text = myFrame', an error occurs. How do I display this integer into a textfield?
View 2 RepliesI have a textfield (the one that shows ammo) that doesent display all numbers. U have uploaded the swf. The code that I used to make the textfiled display some text is:
ActionScript Code:
function checkAmmo(e:Event){
var percentAmmo:Number = curAmmoInClipFirst/clipSizeWep1*100;
if (curAmmoInClipFirst >= 0){
trace(curAmmoInClipFirst);
ammoLeftBar.bar.scaleY = percentAmmo/100
} else {
Char.reloadGun();
} ammoLeftBar.ammoLeftNumber.text = curAmmoInClipFirst.toString() + " / " + clipSizeWep1.toString();
}}}
Which is triggered onEnterFrame.
How I can include the . in the restricted text field. I know how to restrict to only allow for numbers, letters etc... but what I need is to only allow numbers and the dot.

I have added a menu to my game, and now certain text for the game does not appear unless I quickly double click the text field. Everything non-text works. The Sidebar is an instance of Sidebar movieclip which has two text fields that I added in the flash IDE, both with correct instance names. I have embedded my fonts, and tracing the text of the textField gives the correct number, without any return lines or whitespaces. The "double click shows text" is only for my countdown time.
My other score text field does not display no matter what, not even the text I set in the flash IDE. The only thing I can think of why is maybe flash stops rendering it because I have another menu movieclip that I set the alpha to 0 on stage that might overlay the text fields, however removing the menu movieclip does not fix the problem. Right clicking on the text field, select all, copy, paste gives the correct number.

My Flash AS3 application includes input TextFields. The user can choose from an array of fonts to use. These fonts are loaded at runtime from external SWFs. In order to support as many languages as possible, and to avoid having to load many MBs of foreign-language glyphs, I've included the "_sans" and "_serif" fonts. So, the idea is that a Russian user can type Cyrillic characters, or an Israeli can type Hebrew, when they select one of these two fonts.
Here's my problem: A Hebrew user has reported that they cannot type Hebrew characters into the TextField (only squares appear). BUT, when they copy-and-paste Hebrew text into the TextField, it DOES appear. This seems to prove that the Flash Player is able to find the appropriate glyphs on the user's system. But the user can't type them directly. If you've encountered this, have you tried a successful work-around, such as providing some kind of virtual keyboard interface?

View 5 RepliesWe got some complaints from users not being able to type in certain chars like '@' and '.' in an input field (textfield). The Textfield is an input field type:
Font embedding seems fine (all needed chars are selected + '@' and '.')
Textfield restrict property is set: "a-zA-Z0-9@.\_\-"
Still some users complain not being able to type a '@' or '.' I've googled and searched the forum and the only thing I've found that could cause this was the wmode = 'opaque' property. We need to set this property to show up Facebook Connect windows. Otherwise these windows would get behind the Flash object in the HTML page. Another reason could be related to the regional settings of the keyboard, which might be faulty interpreted by Flash. Or could it simply be related to a faulty restrict (regex) property?
