How do I make dynamic text look static while the HMTL tagging is enabled?
I have a dynamic text filed where I am setting the text value through a variable. Now, I need that text to look static on run time and HTML tagging on the field enabled.
I have a dynamic text field where I am setting it's text value through a variable. Now, I need this dynamic text field content to look like static font on runtime. I tried embedding the text field but that makes my file so heavy and most importantly, it disables the HTML tagging on the text field.

View 3 RepliesHow do you mix static and dynamic text in one sentence?I want to display This audio is ::totaltime:: minutes long.Where ::totaltime:: is a variable determined in the ActionScript 2 codeCan I do this in a text box on the stage or does it need to be done in ActionScript 2? (I'm not using AS3, even though I'm in CS3.)If it's in AS2, I'm not used to outputting text from there, so how do I specify that the text be embedded Helvetica, 12pt, black, and starting at x:0, y:65 ?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a flash animation but I'm getting these two errors: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property enabled through a reference with static type Class. (line 4) 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class. (line 5) This is the code I'm using:
Code: Select allimport flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
stop();
buti.enabled;
buti.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pla);
function pla(e:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
My animation is a initial photo that turns around and becomes a black backgroud (were I'll add some text), now what I want is that the photo won't animate until I do a click in it. I used a Layer with a transparent image and converted it to a button and the export name is buti. The other to layers were converted to movie clips named preto and foto.
I'm trying to display a score in CS4 using AS2.0. The score is out of 14, so the display should read "1/14", "2/14" etc. I've got some code that scores correctly, but would like the text box to incorporate the "/14" which is static text. If I sit a static text box next to the dynamic text box, it doesn't align properly. I've anti-aliased the text (Bitstream Vera Sans Bold), but the alignment is still not reliable, even checking type spacing, correct Y position on page etc. The code I have currently is:
var score:Number = 0;
function addScore() {
score++;
scoreBoard.variable = score;
}
I thought by altering the last line to
scoreBoard.variable = score + "/14";
but this doesn't work, the "/14" does not display.I've also tried scoreBoard.text = score + "/14"; In this instance, the "/14" is not displayed when the score is zero, then displays "1/14" when the score is 1, but then displays "a/14" when the score increases.
Recently whenever I tested my swf it did not show any text (static or dynamic) but if I preview the html version then it showed all the text.
View 0 RepliesDoes anyone know why text put into a dynamic text box would look different than the same text with the same font, size, etc in a static text box. The dynamic text looks jagged and pixel-y, while static box looks normal.
View 7 RepliesI am wondering how to apply perspective to a dynamic/static text field in CS3? I have tried a few ways, but I can't get farther than skewing. This is the pane on which I would like to place the text. Could someone tell me if there is a way to get the same perspective?
View 3 RepliesTry this experiment. Select Text, Static Text, Times New Roman [or any font], set size to 280. Remember how it looks. Now set to Dynamic Text. Suddenly the font size changes even when it still shows 280! How can I make the visual size stay the same?

View 5 RepliesI am having some trouble with a dynamic html-enabled textfield and the uiscrollbar component. I created a dynamic textfield on the stage, named it "mytext". Enable it for HTML and make it multiline. I added this action: mytext.htmlText="test<BR><BR>test<BR><BR>test" The html shows up just fine. I add a uiscrollbar to it. It is definitely targeted for "mytext". Now when I test it I get: _level0.mytext in the textbox instead. When I trace mytext.htmlText, I get the correct HTML but it just doesn't show up. When I shorten my content so that the UIscrollbar isn't necessary, the HTML is again displayed correctly. Now if I update the code to say instead:

1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.

View 3 RepliesI made an AIR app and enabled it so the user can move it around the desktop where they want. One problem is on a page of textfields, if the user tries to select text (click, drag cursor to select the text) the app drags instead.
Any easy solutions other than having to set up listeners for every textfield and "interrupting" dragging?? (AIR 2.7)

I'm creating a Flash header for a website running on a coldfusion backend. Is there a way to create links on the menu so that only the cfm/html content beneath the banner refreshes but not the entire flash movie?
I have a stop action at the end of the movie now, but when I click on any of the menu links the entire movie replays from the beginning as the content refreshes.

View 1 RepliesI'm running my head against a wall here and I'm not sure how to tackle this problem. Background I'm making some sort of movie player with subtitles overlayed on it. I'm using the root timeline for my movie timeline because this greatly increases development speed. The subtitles are created with the texttool, and I make them dynamic textboxes because I need to reference them in AS3. I cannot wrap them into a movieclip because they need to be in sync with the root timeline
The user should be able to enable or disable (effectively showing or hiding) the subtitles. The way I did this is by adding an event listener that listens to Event.Enter_Frame on the root timeline and a global boolean to indicate whether subs should be shown. In the enter frame event listener I search for the textfield by root.getChildByName (the name is the same each time) and show or hide the textfield accordingly.

I have developed a rolling credits style movieclip in Flash using Actionscript 2. Text is loaded from an XML file and parsed into a dynamic textfield. This text includes hyperlinks to webpages defined by a url node in the xml so Flash can add the appropriate a href to the dynamic text field and make the link clickable.
In my first attempts to do this the textfield stayed still and all the links worked fine both testing locally and when I run it in a browser on my website.Then I wanted to make things move ... which I achieved easily enough and tested locally (from within Flash Professional) and the links remained clickable, a browser window opened and the webpage i was expecting to see opened... great
However, when I export the swf, upload it and run it from my website suddenly the links are not working. So I tried to test the movie in a browser from Flash Pro - same problem, it must be something to do with Flash Player and the moving dynamic textfield.
a couple of observations - the cursor will change to a hand icon when over the links as you would expect, and if I right click on the link and click open in a new window the link works ok, just not when I left click. If I stop the scrolling then the links become clickable again, it is only when the textfield is moving... actually its not technically scrolling, im moving the whole textfield.
