Well i am currently mkaing a virtual world using flash cs5 and smartfox server. I have all the stuff done but then i try to start the movie it says "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."
View 1 RepliesI have an xml-based mp3 player which loads the track titles into dynamic text fields from an external .xml file and I can't get the text to bold. I have "use device fonts" checked. If I select the text field in Flash and change the color or size those attributes will change in the published version, but... when I click the B button, it won't render the text bold in the published version.Do I have to add additional font formatting in the actual ActionScript? Here's the AS for the player. I only want to bold the track title which (I think) is about half-way down -- track_title.text = track_list[current];[code]
View 5 RepliesI'm having a really hard time properly using device-fonts for multiple languages displayed in the same app (at the same time).I must use device-fonts (cannot use the .embedFonts = true property) and I won't be masking, scaling or rotating or animating the text anyways. I'm not worried about the disappearing issues side-effects. I'm noticing that English characters are showing up correctly, BUT other characters aren't.[code]What I'm trying to do is display single words (or short sentences) from various sources and various languages. In other words.... many TextFields will be scattered near eachother, but each TextField will use one language independant from the other Textfields. One may be in Mandarin, another in Spanish, another in French, in English.What do I need to do to get the Font "_sans" (or any supported device fonts) to show up correctly in various languages?
View 2 RepliesWhat's the correct settings or if it makes a big difference I just want a crisp clean font with no anti-alias If I use any thing other than "Use device fonts" they look blurry and badhowever if I "use device fonts" does the user need to have the fonts installed?
View 2 RepliesI'm just finishing an updated interface to a pre-existing multi-lingual flash site. We're using device fonts for non-western fonts. Japanese works fine. 100% fine. Korean, for some reason, does not.he text itself is being pulled into the Flash via remoting. And is all unicode. I'm confident that the Korean unicode is okay because it displays in our CMS interface fine and also displays in the old Flash interface (built in MX 2004) without a problem. Both the old and the new Flash interfaces (which are completely separate) use the Arial system font for non-western fonts. In the old interface, it displays fine. In the new one, I just see html ballot box entity characters in place of the characters.

Can't set useDeviceFonts property of a horizontal text object.
I have no idea what this means. I noticed some other bod on these forums posted this issue a while back, but nobody responded.
Reason why few of the pixel fonts look more sharp when we use device font than embedding the font.
View 3 RepliesI have imported my wav files to my library added them to the down state of my buttons and when I test the file I get (Sound has no valid device sound path although exporting device sounds was requested in the export settings. This sound will be ignored.) I have been surching for an answer but as of yet have found none.
View 3 RepliesIt's what this image describes:For some reason, I cannot use bold tags to set the TLF text to bold, even though both the regular and bold fonts are embedded.so that the webpage that embeds this movie can call its function (otherwise the movie itself will be wrapped by TLF).his is not exactly a question since there is an obvious solution to this. Just set the htmlText as something like "<font face='Myriad Web Pro'><b>BOLD</b></font>" and you're done.hs issue is, why does it not render the bold text without the font tag in the first place, if I have already set the font of the TLF text in the PI?
View 2 RepliesI have a static textfield using Myriad Pro bold font that, when set to STATIC TEXT works absolutely fine, in the correct font. If I set it to DYNAMIC TEXT and test the SWF, the text shows up as a system font; not Myriad Pro If I set it to EMBED CHARACTERS the text doesn't show up at all on ANY system, whether the font is installed or not.
I have tried adding the font to the Library and using that "Family" for Properties>Character in my dynamic text box, but get the same results as when I don't set that to EMBED CHARACTGERS. I've tried selecting the font for the textfield as both the standard OS Font, as well as the one with the Asterisk next to it, but get the same results both ways. The library font is set to "export for actionscript" and "on frame 1". I don't think it's an issue with the font not being available, as I'm able to see it when setting textfield to STATIC type, and I use the font in other CS4 products (Photoshop, etc.).
I have a couple questions about dynamic text fields. Is it possible to embed multiple fonts? Are color and font size dynamic? Is there a way to make scalable text? Is there a way to make a the contents of a dynamic text field a link to whatever URL might be typed into it?
View 4 RepliesI bought this template a while back ago and now I am going to use it, the thing is the contact form is not accepting some characters like "q,w,e,r,t,y,@" etc. I remeber I had this issue a while back ago and I embeded the fonts and that fixed the issue, but with this one, aint working, I embeded all the fonts the template uses and it is not working.When I export the movie I always get the message "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."I went to text> Font Embedding> I added pretty much all the characters for the fonts but I am still getting the message and still I am unable to add characters into the contact form.
View 1 RepliesI save my (embedded) fonts in an external file (fonts.swf) that gets loaded at runtime. Pretty standard. I also use a bunch of UI artwork generated in the Flash IDE. Some of this artwork contains static textfields (thus, not proper TextFields that can change. Just frozen glyphs). Here's the problem: if I use the same font in any static textfield and then embed that same font into my collection of runtime fonts, the runtime font will refuse to render. It's the same effect you get if you set a textfield with embeddedFonts=true to use a font that isn't embedded. If I change the static textfields to use a different font, the runtime fonts work just fine.

I have the following code:
[Code]...
All now works exept the height doesn't seem to work; that is, if the text goes on for pages all of it prints to screen. I would like to contain it to 350 px and then have the user use the scrollbar.
I'm using the tutorials on [URL] to show me how to work through things. However, when I am trying to type text using the TFL setting, I get nothing but a blue box. I open a blank file, select the Text tool. It comes up with the cross-hair the a small capital T to the bottom right. I click on the stage to make the text box from the dotted lines/marching ants, then as soon as I let go, it snaps to the top left corner as a blue box. And every time I repeat this,each subsequent box snaps to the top left corner. When I click the selection tool, and make a box around the corner, all the different blue boxes I made fro my text tool is shown, but I still can't type even a single letter!
View 1 RepliesI've a flash template and the variables are editable in XML files. I need to define a gradient on dynamic text, Here's the code in the flash actionscript that i think it's linking to xml:

anyone has ideas for defining a linear gradient?? i've researched and try somethings but this is really not my field, and I seem to keep failing.
I have a dynamic text box in which I am embedding an image. Here is the code that fills in the text box
infoBox.informationText.htmlText=
"<font size='16' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerIndex+
"
<font size='14' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerDate+
[Code]....
How can a set the image size in the above code. I've tried inserting width and height parameters just after the image's path but an error is thrown. I would like for the image's width to be as wide as the dynmic text infoBox.informationText
Also the path to each image equals a variable called calledMarkerContent How could I set the img src equal to the variable called calledMarkerContent?
Is there a way to detect if a dynamic text field that has basic english characters embedded can't display some foreign text, japanese for example?
So I can then switch the text to display in an arial device font text field.
Sorry if this has been answered b4, but I can't find it if it has.
I'm using flash CS5.5 (trail version) and want to export a movei file out to device central to test acceleromoter settings.
When creating the file I : selected air fro andiod, made these changes to the publish settings : set upa certificate, tick all permission (as it kept telling me they hadn't been set) and then click ok.
For some reason under control > test movie > device central is greyed out. If i try to open the .swf file directly in device central it just tells me the device has the wrong version of flash.
Any ideas? I selected the file type as andriod?, preferably would like just to be able to click on test moving in device central.

I had a quick and dirty little IOS application that I thought I'd knock out in Flash CS5.5 and deliver to the AppStore.I must have missed something really important in the past 11 months.I built a small, simple app to test on my iPad.I set it up to run on GPU, set up the p12 and a new Provisioning Certificate. Deployment is set to "quick publishing for device testing". In 2 minutes or less it published to an IPA file.The problem is when I mount the IPA to iTunes Library then to my device, it is literally stuck in Loading mode.... Just to test how slow it is, I left it to run over night.Well it's still loading almost 16 hours later. Is it just me?I can't seem to find any other discussions or articles on IPA loading problems. Do I need to load some other version of something else to make this new version of Flash publish efficiently?Is this not the correct workflow from Flash to an IOS device?

View 1 RepliesI'm working on an Android Air app made in CS5.5 where user data is saved in the app's applicationStorageDirectory as a text file.
Is there a way to send this saved text file to another device's applicationStorageDirectory via Bluetooth/email/text e.g?
The idea is that the app "game" is saved on each person's device. When the game is over, I want the users to be able to compare their results. (I'll write some code to compute who the winner is via comparing the two results)

View 2 RepliesI am developing an app in Flash Pro CS5.5 to be deployed on the NOOKcolor. I have everything set up for the computer to recognize the NOOK through the USB (was able to reboot the device by using the command prompt window). I can move files onto the device via USB but I want to be able to debug from Flash. I am successfully able to do this with a Droid 2 phone. Is there something on the NOOK that has to be set up for Flash to recognize the NOOK as an android device that it can debug on?
View 3 RepliesDeveloping APPs on IOS using Flex 4.6 I am displaying parsed epub files into stagewebview. It works fine on the device. However, when I try to add the annotation tool which (likes the ibook annotation), I can only select one single word!! I tried the "Game of Flex" which it did the same way as loading a web content into a stagewebview component, and it cannot have control to select more word as well. Therefore, I think its the current limitation (correct me if there is actually a way to do that in stagewebview) on the stagewebview. So, do you guys have other good ideas to display content as html without the limitation? like use other components, call JS? or use native object-c?
