IDE :: Text Panel Properties Doesn't Allow To Underline Text Or To Highlight And Edit A Single Word In A Whole Text Box - Missing?
Oct 1, 2009
I used to have a little text panel (that sat with the color, swatches, and align panels) that I was able to open up and edit text size, color, underline, etc with. It had a much better text editing ability then the properties panel, seeing as the properties panel does not even bother to allow me to underline text or to highlight and edit a single word in a whole text box. Now I don't have it, I can't find the damn thing anywhere, and I want it back. How can I get it?

I need to create a tooltip for a single word of dynamic text, and I was wondering how to do it in AS 2.0. Also, it would be nice to have a clickable link in the tooltip, if possible.

I have a TextField on stage in a as2 version of Flash. Using the properties panel I'm trying to populate with text from an external file.
The text is in a file called about.txt located in the same folde as the swf.This is the contents of that text file:

Underlined Text On (rollOver) Is there an action script to do on (rollover) underline text? It would be on a button that would also, on (release) gotoAndPlay a frame. I know you can have a movie with AS like this:
[Code]....
But when I add the on (release) to the movie it doesnt advance the timeline on (release). And when I change the file to a button instead of a movie clip it doesnt do the underline on (rollOver).

So, I've got a component that changes selected text fields case to Title, Sentence, or ALL CAPS.
Below is the code for all caps.
Code:
function fnAll(e:MouseEvent):void{
var numItems:int = int(MMExecute("fl.getDocumentDOM().selection.length"));
for(var i:int = 0; i < numItems; i++){
[Code]....
If you open a file, change the text case, then save it without doing anything else: It doesn't save the changes made with this control. If you change the case, then alter the file using the IDE (cut/paste the text, shift it, draw something and delete it, etc) THEN it saves the changes.
So it seems that the case alteration by itself is not recognized by the IDE, so it doesn't think the file changed, and doesn't actually save it.

I am trying to implement htmlText for a text component as the returned string is in html format (with the html tags etc). If I put a text=.... i get the full text, but with the tags (which i want converted to html). So i use htmlText=.... and it formats it fine, but cuts half the text from the variable. The text im supposed to get back has tons of html tags, and maybe its cutting it somewhere because of the tag its not able to escape... How do i fix this?

I've been involved in a webproject where text will be converted into speech. Then the text should be highlighted word by word as the audio is played in the browser.

I know this is a tutorial on this site but I'm having trouble finding it, and its been a while so I can't remember exactly how to do it. I just need to make a dynamic text field that you can edit via text file.

I have created a line on the stage with the Line tool, and then want to edit the Stroke and Style in the Properties panel. However, after creating the line these options are greyed out and not available to me. Even if I then select the Line with the Selection tool, I cannot edit the Stroke or the Style.

I have a simple text box with a UIScrollBar component added to it.
The text box properties are set to "input text, multi line.
The problem is when I want to change just one line of the text to a bold or a different color, the whole text box contents changes. I've tried different property setting for the text box itself with no luck.

There doesn't seem to be any clearcut instructions on how to underline text in Flash. I did a search and there seems to be many solutions by adding code, etc. I tried using the Line Tool to underline some text and it shows up fine on the stage but when I preview it, the line does not show up.
how to underline text for someone new to Flash?

How do I underline dynamic text in Actionscript 2.0?
I tried wrapping the text with <u> and </u> but it didn't work, so I guess that's just for Actionscript 3.0.

I have created a RSS feed viewer, parsing the RSS feed with actionscript 3.0 and viewed on the stage in dynamic text boxes. The text in these dynamic boxes is scripted to link to web addresses contained in the RSS feeds in the same node as the text being displayed. So far so good. Now I need the text in these boxes to act as if they were HTML links and show an underline and color change when rolled over and clicked on.

I have some text in a Flex 3 application defined as follows
<mx:Text id="textbutton"
text="Link Text"
click="doSomething()"
[Code]....
It does not seem to work however as the text does not underline when I mouse over it.
Is there a way to do this purely through CSS or do I need to programmatically capture the mouse events and set the styles accordingly (seems like overkill)?

I use the setStyle("textDecoration", "underline"); for showing an underline on text hover. This works fine but the underline is touching the text itself. Is it possible to put some spacing between text and the underline?
Update: 02/072012 I'm using Flex SDK 3.5 so I cant use the spark solution for now. Im using Label component and setting the textfield's style.

I am very new to flash, but definitely not new to programming. Having a little trouble getting started, guess there is a steep learning curve... I want to make a simple rectangle with text in it, and on mouse over the text should be underlined.
I made a rectangle. I right clicked it and made it a symbol (button). I gave the button instance name "butt". I double clicked the button and added text. I made the text dynamic text and gave it the instance name "buttText". Then I got out of the symbol editor and went back to the main scene. In my first keyframe, I added this [code]...

I've seen similar threads but couldn't find one with the exact same issue. I've a PDF / Word document with arabic copy when I try pasting that text in flash all the joined letters start appearing as individual letters.I've tried the dynamic text box solution in which you create a dynamic text box and assign the text to its variable that doesn't work. But strangely when you write arabic in dynamic text box (with out assigning the text to the variable) and double click to select the text box and its content the text starts appearing fine .. but when published its again all individual letter.

I have a test field that I've created dynamically. If I add text to it by writing: myField.text = "some text" the text appears, but if I add text using a variable I don't see anything. If I trace the text field's text trace("text = " myField.text) I get the right value.
