ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Text Inside A MovieClip?

Apr 21, 2009

how work with resizing the width of of a movie clip according to the size of dynamic text inside it. I did it by creating a text field 'myText' and then converted it to a MovieClip symbol and named the MovieClip as myClip. The text in myText is assigned at run-time and its width changes according to the text.

I did it as follows:-
myClip.myText.selectable = false;
myClip.mouseChildren = false;
myClip.useHandCursor = true;
myClip.buttonMode = true;
myClip.myText.width = myClip.myText.textWidth + 5;

On doing this I found the clickable area change according to the size of the text field but the text field doesn't appear at all in the swf.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text Box Inside A Movieclip?

Oct 9, 2007

I have a dynamic text box inside a movieclip that is generating load percentage eg: 40% etc. I have two Scenes, the first scene preloads the entire movie (this works fine, has the numbers plus percentage).

The second scene runs a movieclip preloader (while reusing the same dynamic text box in the same movieclip) - For some reason the % is not showing up after the numbers, I know its working because when I trace what the text is in the dynamic textbox during the script it shows the % sign after the numbers in the output window.This also occurs with all the other punctuation glyphs I try, not just the % sign...

Mar 2, 2012

This is probably easy stuff for most of you guys but have tried to have this working for the past hour and it's not working.I basicly have made my own button which is a movieclip. Inside the movieclip on the normal/roll off state i've put a dynamic textfieldwith instance name "textbtn" my button is supposed to span 2 frames on my mainstage, thought is need to say something different in each frame.

textbtn.text = MovieClip(parent).buttonText;

on my mainstage in frame1 I have:

back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, buttonRollOver);
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, buttonRollOut);

CS3 - Make XML Data From External File Display Inside A Dynamic Text Field?

Mar 23, 2010

I have combed the Web and I can't seem to find the answer. All I want to do is display some html-formatted text, located within an external XML file, in a dynamic text field in Flash CS3.

I don't have any code to supply because at this point the only thing I'm trying to display in the text field is "<b>This</b> is a <a href="http://www.google.com">test</a>." For this hypothetical example, I could call the text field myTextField. I just need to know how to format the AS3 code to get the XML to display inside myTextField.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Loading XML Data To Dynamic Text Field Inside MC In Google Maps API?

Aug 26, 2011

I have a simple Google Maps API with external data loaded from XML file (location, lat, long, info etc.). I also have a custom marker as a MovieClip (marker_mc), which works fine, but I want to add a Dynamic Text Field (label_txt) to this MovieClip and load a simple data (<label>) to it from same XML file (distribubtion.xml), so as a result every location would have it's own label on the marker.I know how flash loads XML data, but what I don't know is how to include that in Google Maps API (if it's even possible).

Here's the code:

Code:
// Import
import com.google.maps.LatLng;
import com.google.maps.LatLngBounds;

I was thinking of doing this by changing the color of the text but I don't know how to do it inside the CDATA tags.At the moment one CDATA populates one text field.Another option is that there would be a movie clip behind the text that would jump to highlight a specific paragraph but then I would need to know how much vertical space each paragraph takes.

this is should be pretty simple but I have had a lot of trouble figuring this out..

I have one dynamic text field called "content_txt"

I have 3 text documents in a folder (1.txt 2.txt 3.txt)

I am able to have 1.txt loaded into content_txt, but here is the problem.
