Flash :: Library For Converting Flex TextLayoutFormat Data To HTML And CSS?
Apr 8, 2011
I have the job of recreating a flex app in HTML and CSS. The existing app makes considerable use of TextFlow to layout content. For several reasons I need to be quite accurate (within a few pixels) with positioning.
[Code]...
Ideally I'm looking for a library I can use to translate these many attributes into "proper" html and css. The current technology stack is PHP at the back end and javascript at the front end, but there would be little problem in using any other language to do the translation.
Failing that I guess I'll try and write my own, using the api reference as a guide.

I am developing a mobile project in Flash builder using flex 4.5. I am very new to flex, with some background in Obj-C.urrent Setup:I am passing the text property of a text input component to a second view via navigator.pushview{view.Someview, data}public function doSomething():void{navigator.pushView(Session_View, timeInput.text);This successfully passes the text I put into the textinput to the Session_View instance and I can display that text in a label in the mxml; however, I would like to take the text passed and convert it to an integer to use in my logic.Within Action Script I have tried parseInt() function with no luck.I have also tried to assign data to a variable in actionscript with no luck.

I have a scenario that I get an string with html data, this is not just html data it's an email (outlook) saved as an html file and dropped in the string.Now this string needs to be formatted to an html document and should be a clickable link in a datagrid. So when I click on the link, the HTML document should pop-up and should gave me a nice HTML page that is readable for the normal users. I hope it's a bit clear what I want o_0. don't know where to start.

All I want to do is get the formatting properties of a TLFTextField and apply it to another TLFTextField. This was simple using the classic TextField:
var textFormat:TextFormat = text1.getTextFormat();
text2.setTextFormat(textFormat);
TLFTextField has a getTextFormat and setTextFormat function, but they are both very buggy. getTextFormat only works if you change the selectable property to true, otherwise it generates a null object error. setTextFormat generates a NaN error when some of the properties of the TextFormat object are not null.
The TextLayoutFormat object is supposed to be used instead for TLFTextFields. You set the object by doing the following:
var text1:TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
var textLayoutFormat:TextLayoutFormat = new TextLayoutFormat();
var textFlow:TextFlow = text1.textFlow;
[Code]....
But this just returned null. Does anyone know how to get the TextLayoutFormat so I can apply it to another TLFTextField?

However I've spent hours trying to find out how to do something very simple in HTML.
Say I have a very simple HTML Form like this...
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="http://website.com/form">
<input type="text" name="your-name" id="your-name" />
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
How do I convert it to flash?
what AS3 code I should write, what should I call my form text fields and my button instance. Also where if anywhere should I put the equivalent of the <form></form> tags.

I am converting an html form to a flash form. I am not so good with AS3 and it's the first time I have to create forms so it was quite difficult for me. I am almost done, I did the text fields and the comboboxes, so everything except the checkboxes works.
Here's the html code for the 5 checkboxes;
...<input type="checkbox" name="txtMessage" value="Find Your Pace">...
...<input type="checkbox" name="txtMessage" value="Stress Escape">...
...<input type="checkbox" name="txtMessage" value="Time Revolution">...
...<input type="checkbox" name="txtMessage" value="Ultimate Connections">...
...<input type="checkbox" name="txtMessage" value="Contact Me About Life Coaching">...
Here's an example of how my flash form works;
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
var varSend:URLRequest = new URLRequest("website");
var varLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader;
varSend.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
varSend.data = variables;
[Code] .....

I just started using AS3, I'm trying to do is pipe xml data to flash to be stylized in a text field, then save as transparent png. Right now I have a problem; when I run the script with this.addChild(this); it takes a snap of only the first entry, and only the first entry to output. If I leave that out, it sends all 750 entries to the output screen, and it parses the xml like it should (w/ out the text clear at the end, it applies all 750 entries filter styles to the one textfield). So I'm assuming everything is working right with parsing the xml, and it's just getting hung up. I'm assuming I have this setup all wrong, but it's the only way I could get it to work... this.addChild(this); just seems wrong, but it's the only way I could snag root, and write it.
Here's my code (I don't need this all proper for use on a website or anything, just to run a few times to batch out some xmls).
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.text.TextField;
var myXML:XML;
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code] .....
There's no code implemented for saving the bitmap data to png. I'm using cs3 right now, so no FileReference.save() feature. I plan on finishing it on a buddies box w/ cs5. On a side note - Would it be possible to compile this with flashdevelop to get this feature? I've never used it...
Here's an example of my xml:
<game titlem="filenameoutput"></game>
<namem desc="name description"></namem>
<manu manufact="manufacturer"></manu>
<year yearmade="19xx"></year>
Probably not the best, but the best I could manipulate the source file w/ regular expressions and sed, and still have it work with the xml tutorial I was referencing. I can try again if it needs to be setup differently. Is it possible in as3 to create a gradient that has one color on top and one on the bottom? I've always failed miserably creating these in previous versions, so I didn't even try.

I have a set of Flex proprietary libraries (ActionScript APIs in SWCs), and I am wondering if it is possible to build a UI completely in HTML using these APIs for functionality, rather than a Flex based UI/view. If yes, what would be the approach (or some examples)?
One reason to do so is to re-use the existing Flex (domain layer) APIs (for the short term) rather than re-writing them in say, JavaScript.

I get this out put (each row is a different element) and I don't know how to convert it in to a readable value.
it should be number with 9-10 digits. from what I have seen in other sites regarding this specific data (this is the value of the tempo in a midi file) - it looks something like this: "tempo is 06 96 27 (in hexa format)"
these values are ByteArray type. how do I convert them to the readable numbers (or perhaps they contain text)?

I'm evaluating the differences between the purePDF and alivePDF libraries in flex, and I'm setting up some IO code so that I can save documents from either from a web based flex application.
AlivePDF gives a very convenient save() function that sends the data to a web service, which can simply bounce it back using Content-Disposition: Attatchment, but PurePDF has no such feature. How can I send the PDF data from purePDF to a webservice in a similar way?

I am using Adobe Air to get data from SalesForce, and present it in a datagrid. I am using a query to get the data, and then put it into an arraycollection that is bound to the datagrid, this works correctly and the data is displayed. The problem is that I want to convert the Account Id in the Event to show the account Name. To do this I am using the following code:-
_serviceWrapper.query( "Select * From Event order by StartDateTime asc", new mx.rpc.Responder( eventQueryHandler, faultHandler ))}
protected function eventQueryHandler(qr:ArrayCollection):void {
var acctIdss:String = "";
for each(var contact:DynamicEntity in qr) {
[Code] .....
This works and displays the Account Name, the problem is that when I use this script and then Sync Changes to SalesForce all the records that have been displayed are identified as needing to be syncronised even if they have only been displayed. If I skip the function eventQueryHandler, and link my query to the OnQueryResult function then there is no problem, but only the Account Id can be displayed. How can I stop Air marking these records as having changed, or is there a better way to achieve this?

Are there any other swf to HTML converters, I know there is Wallaby and Swiffy from Google, but does anyone know any others, that support ActionScript. I want to convert a swf file to HTML, but the swf has some ActionScript (AS3) code inside it that is used to populate the swf. I want to be able to convert this into HTML and use JavaScript to populate the HTML version.

I am using JSON to parse HTML data with customized html tags in Flex. Flex's support for HTML is pretty minimal, so I am wondering if it's possible to do a simple font color change rollover effect on these links. Currently I have found that Flex only supports a few HTML tags, but also supports CSS through Flex's whack CSS methods. Can I manipulate HTML that is written in my JSON files through an external CSS file? Or better still using a simple tag with the JSON file?

I have a movie clip that holds one bitmap image, some simple AS3 to change the image displayed, and a ton of bitmaps I've imported into my library.Currently, I swap the images by changing the bitmapData
holder.bitmapData = new test2(1,1);
but this requires me to check off 'Export for ActionScript' in every symbol. I'd rather not go through every bitmap in the library and do this, is there some way to reference them by their library name?

So I'm importing this file called tbox.txt and in that file it has a variable, num, which equals 3. Now when I run the debug window, it comes back as num = "3". So its a string. so I do num=num-0 to make it a number instead of a string. And it doesn't work so I do a trace on num and it comes back as undefined.... which is what I dont understand, how can it be "3" and undefined at the same time.
