My copy of Flash CS3 seems to have a problem with its Autoformatting. Whenever I press the button, it adds a semi-colon to the end of every single line (apart from the beginning of functions). There's no problem with the Edit > Preferences > Auto format menu.
View 6 RepliesI need to replace multiple contiguous new line/line feed characters in flex with a single new line character.
Example:
The string
"My name is blah blah
My name is blah
"
Should be converted to
"My name is blah blah
My name is blah
"
Hope the example makes it easier to understand.
I am using a component to render it.
I guess using regex would be the easiest way to do this, but still it would be great if people can point me out to references/examples to get this done with ease.
I am using flex 4.5.
When a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.
I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.
Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?
I have this script path to an XML attribute[code]...
Also, I have issues with spaces not being added around operators even though I have that set in my preferences. I have access to Adobe's bug system but Flash is not listed, so I can't report the bug. Even their general website "Request a feature/Report a bug" form does not list Flash Pro under the list of apps.
took me like 20 minutes to get why my code is not functionning... this line: tempRef.x=(limitL-dist-tempRef.width/2)+(tempRef.width+dist)*(i+1); after auto format becomes like this: tempRef.x=limitL-dist-tempRef.width/2+tempRef.width+dist*i+1; that's not the same thing at all...may I know why this is happening?

View 2 RepliesI've got a line in my Actionscript like this:[code]If I click the auto format button with this line in there, it adds unnecessary semicolons through the rest of the code and the file stops working. Is there something wrong with the way I have this coded? It works just fine with the code in there before I hit the auto format button.
View 1 RepliesI found a reference to CS3 Flash's auto format breaking AS3 code on kirupa back in May 2007 but was surprised to find out that it still breaks code by removing parenthesis.Beforetruescale=Math.pow(8,(1 - i) * scaleit);Aftertruescale=Math.pow(8,1 - i * scaleit);Obviously the results are devastating. Would someone check to see if CS4 Flash's auto format still causes the same error when editing .as file? Might be worth the price of an upgrade if it does NOT mess up the format.
View 5 RepliesSomething is corrupt with my Flash Professional CS5 Actionscript Auto format: Comments within a block, such as ' // ' or block comments ' /* ... */ ' are tripping up the Auto Formattor, which returns this error: ' Error with autoformat near line: }'. Comments before package block don't cause an error. When I remove comments within package block, Auto format works correctly.
View 2 Replies The code works fine, but every time I click Auto Format it changes the code so it doesn't work anymore, giving me all kinds of errors. I perceive this as something imperfect in the code and potentially preventing it from working as efficiently.

View 3 RepliesI have a very strange problem with the Auto Format feature in Flash CS4. Sometimes, when I click on Auto Format, it takes away all the spaces between operators and their keywords. But sometimes, it doesn't. why, and how I can prevent this from happening? I REALLY hate it when the IDE does something I don't tell it to.
View 1 RepliesWhen using sound in flash you can also do this with loading an external sound.
my sound.load(new URLRequest("audio/mysound.wav"));
But when you load an .mp3 file the effect of the sounds keeps playing too late. So I discovered that when you save a audio file to mp3 format there is automatically with any sound editor an insert of 1/2 to 1 second of silence. So i read on the web that this does not happen when you save it to .wav formatBut when saving it to wav format i don't hear the sound in flash anymore, only when i save the wav file, with a compression of MPG,but then there is also silence added automatically. What compression technique you should use when saving it to wav format?
While coding, I wondered if a plugin exists that I could highlight a series of variable declarations, hit some special keyboard shortcut and BAM! They would appear in alphabetical order.Is there anything that does this in Flash Builder? Or FlashDevelop even?So it would go from this:
private var _value:Number;
private var _helloWorld:String;
private var _foobar:Boolean;
To this:
private var _foobar:Boolean;
private var _helloWorld:String;
private var _value:Number;
I have some code that looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
level_btn.x = 50 + (i - 1) % 10 * 50;
It sets the x location of my level button. But this is in a for loop (that's what the 'i' is for.) I run it and everything works perfectly, as it should, not a single problem. Then I press the auto format button in the flash actionscript editor. (It's the button that adds all of the ; to the end of each line and other stuff)
Well that changes my code to this:
ActionScript Code:
level_btn.x = 50 + i - 1 % 10 * 50;
thinking it's done me a favour but it hasn't. It's got rid of the brackets so it won't do the maths functions in the correct order. I've tried adding more brackets in places and other stuff but I just don't know how to fix it. It's annoying because every time I press the auto format button I have to add the brackets in again.
I have some input text fields (by the text tool, not the component) in my form that I was wondering if they could be auto-formatted. I was looking specifically for dates & numbers. For example when the user inputs 082606 and then tabs away it would immediately update to 08/26/06, or when the user inputs 50000 it would immediately update to 50,000.
View 4 RepliesI'm attempting to add line breaks after the code I've included below. I know that I need to add a " " after the line of text, but I haven't had any success.
textField.appendText(""+ bldg.S11[i].Title.text())textField.appendText("Square Footage: "+ bldg.S11[i].SF.text())textField.appendText("Tenant: "+ bldg.S11[i].Tenant.text())textField.appendText("Status: "+ bldg.S11[i].Status.text())
We can write
on (release, releaseOutside) {
// statements...
}
on a button or a movieclip.
But can we write the same on a frame specifying the same action? e.g. Something like
my_btn.onRelease,releaseOutSide=function(){
// statements..
}
Now the above code doesn't run unless we write two different lines for "release" and "releaseOutSide" respectively.
Previously I had posted a thread about trying to format and xml file with line breaks and indents when writing XML files using the xml.sendAndLoad method.I was looking for a way to write the xml like this[code]...
I thought I had solved this by converting the XML to a str in which the line breaks and indents were added in the appropriate places, but as yet I haven't been able to write it to an XML file. I can write a text file using LoadVars, but this isn't useful as the formatting isn't preserved.

I have very little experience with text in flash. In a dynamic text field I know I can apply a TextFormat to the entire field but can I apply different fromatting to individual workd in the field if for example I wanted to make a word or a few words of text a hyperlink within a textfield. Can I do that or would I need to use html text?
