Professional :: Resizing Text Messes Up Alignment?
Feb 4, 2011
I'm using the following code to resize user input text when it gets too long for the textfield. The resizing seems to work fine but when it resizes it it becomes left aligned and is outside the textfield. I only see the end of the text. It's as though it's centering to the cursor instead of the text. If I use the arrow keys to back up the text it snaps into the center of the textfield like it should have been from the start.[code]

If I put any text letter of any size at the top of the stage, lets say for example a "T" of 10 pts. Then move the timeline to frame 50 and insert a keyframe and then move that "T" down to the bottom of the stage and resize it to say 50 pts. (I want the effect of the letter growing as it moves down the stage).If I then isert a Motion Tween and scrub it the letter just stays at 10 pt until the keyframe at 50is hit and then it resizes to 50. Not the effect I am looking for.But if I use the classic tween then it does do what I want which is gradually grow from 10 pts to 50 pts by the bottom of the stage.

I want to use the UI Text Scroll component on a text box. When I make the initial text box,it is the normal 1 line in depth, based on the font size. When I paste the type into the box it gets very long, which is fine, but when I try to make the text box smaller using the transform tool so that I can make it fit the movie, it makes the type smaller as well. Is there a way to change the height of the box, without it effecting the text inside?

I keep asking myself why Flash is so simple when it comes to text layout and finally today I was thinking that that really can't be, considering Flash is meant to layout text in web sites. In my text field, I am looking to create a half return, so if I want space between two paragraphs, I don't have to use an empty return each time. Kind of like p padding in css. I also want to create a tab order in my text field, for better alignment of information. I am looking to create the look of two columns, where I have a date with a paragraph associated with it, with the paragraph being more then one line of the date, but staying indented. Lastly, and I am assuming this is a given, I would like the text to come from a xml or html file.

I've been following an xml tutorial webdesign tutorial, as I'm pretty new to the whole coding side of things, I've copied their code into my own design, which has been going fine up until this point.In the tutorials the dynamic menus were alligned vertically, in my site I want them to run horizontally, well I managed to suss out how to realign them, the problem is that the spacing between each button is set according to the end of each (invisible) button.I'm wondering if theres a line of code I can insert, which defines the size of each button according to the size of the text, or alternately, that starts the spacing from the end of the text rather than the button.[code]

I have a problem with the TLF text alignment issue. The problem comes when am adding an image in the TLF text and some text in the text box after the image tag and setting the format tag to leftMargin.<TEXTFORMAT LEFTMARGIN = "20">Some text goes here< /TEXTFORMAT>. what am expecting is if i insert a image tag means it needs to come in the first column and text in the second column just like the normal textfield. For normal text the TEXTFORMAT tag is working perfectly for TLF its not working is there any chance to rectify the problem.
Below is the text what i have given in the Tlf textbox please check it with the normal text also tlf_txt.htmlText = '<img src = "[URL]" width = "10" height = "10" align = "texttop"/><TEXTFORMAT LEFTMARGIN = "20">Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the Use Device Fonts setting. Use the Text Font Embedding command to embed fonts.</TEXTFORMAT>'

When using dynamic text and you set the text alignment to "align right", the text is supposed to flow right to left correct? With my code below I can't seem to get this to happen. All my text is flowing left to right.
Code:
// change title
_global.changeTitle = function(title:String) {
// set title text
_root.vid.title.autoSize = true;
_root.vid.title.text = title; };
changeTitle("A Global Industry");

Lets say i have a AS code
a.text = "OOO " + "BRO
";
a.text+= "iii " + "BRO
";
If we type in a notepad then it is proper,But in the .swf , it's like the below image.It is clear in a Flash text field each character uses different width. So it doesn't line up the text properly. I mean, like in the example, second line "BRO" is a bit left as compared to "BRO" in first line. Is there any setting/code that i can use so that it displays like above image of the notepad where each character consumes same amount of screen space so that character in each line lines-up properly.
EDIT: There is some typo in the title . Please ignore. The title is "Text Field - character alignment within single textfield"

I am working on an as3 project and trying to use htmlText to display images and text inline in rows to create a scroll bar if results are more than 5. for example each row has an image on the left and text on the right aligned like a simple table. However when I add the image tag and text then insert a break or <p> tag the text breaks out of alignment with the image. What is the best to acomplish displaying images and text aligned in rows and get a scroll bar if more than 5 rows in flash/ as3

As part of my flash design, I want to have some tweening text. At the beginning of the tween, the height of the text needs to be distorted ('too tall'), and at the end of the tween, the text will have settled into its correct height. However, when I try to scale the text in the first keyframe of the tween, the font size changes along with the text field height. Normally, I could just make the text into an image, but this needs to be a dynamic text field. Is there no way to scale the height of the text field and distorting the text height without changing the font size?

I'm trying to play an opening animation in my flash movie before I move on to the interactive stuff. I have tried to do this in two ways.
The first way: My movie is two frames. In the first frame on the timeline, I have a movieclip that has a video object in it on the stage. I add code to play a video in it like so and then go to frame 2 where there is a movieclip linked to an external class with all of the rest of my code in it:

I'm dynamically calling pics in from another folder on my site for a slideshow. And it works up to pic #9. But any number over 9 and it wigs out. The naming convention I'm using is panel1, panel2, panel3, etc. Is there a trick? Do I need to use panel01, etc? If so, would that then be panel010 for #10?

Wanna see something interesting?
var xml:XML = XML(<feed><entry /><entry /><entry /></feed>);
trace(xml.entry.length()) // returns 3
Makes sense, right? Now let's add this attribute. var xml:XML = XML(<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"><entry /><entry /><entry /></feed>); trace(xml.entry.length()) // returns 0
Well that can't be right. Let's try it with a different attribute.
var xml:XML = XML(<feed test="okay"><entry /><entry /><entry /></feed>);trace(xml.entry.length()) // returns 3
Anyone know what would cause this? I used atom as an example, but any 'xmlns' attribute on the root node seems to have this effect. The value returned is straight up false - there are obviously still 3 'entry' child nodes regardless of the attributes their parents possess.

On my Mac OS X it didn't matter, the setStyle Worked Fine,However I've transfered my files over to PC and working with the exact same things all the styles work EXCEPT for the setStyle("themeColor", "color");On this PC it's always turning it from the default "Greens" to a solid gray shade of borders, this is very weird.
For Example
Code:
// Have a button component on stage
import mx.controls.Button
_global.styles.setStyle("themeColor", "haloOrange");
[code]....
It works just fine, do I need to edit the core class files for something? I'm extremely confused, I inport the class files in the first place so I can do public vars and strict data type them to that component.
