Friends, I am using Actionscript 2.0 and want to scroll simple text. I did it with the default scrollbar component and it works fine.
But the issue is that I have some subscript and superscript in my text and this option is disabled in the dynamic text field.
My text is like:- CO2 + H2O

I have tried using CSS/Stylemanager etc. , and tried using createInFontContext also... Still it does not work. The fonts only work if they are installed on the user PC. i.e. they do not get embedded in to the application.

I have read the tutorial called "loading text from external sources"(with 3 buttons loading 3 different texts) . I tried it but when I click right on the button, it says "cannot place actionscript directly on an object" Must the different buttons be on different layers?(In my project, they are on the last page of my site)

View 1 RepliesIm building a program that queries a database for options and displays the options in a number of comboBoxes. The comboBoxes are dynamically built and loaded via code and added to the stage. I would like to build the comboBoxes into a single movie clip (maybe not the correct wording) so I can use options like tweening and such to make it look better. The code is below.

View 2 RepliesI've got my canvas size at 900x600 pixels, the text i want on the screen is too large for the site's design, so i want to have the text in the middle with 2 scroll buttons UP - DOWN on the right hand side of the text. [let me point out i dont want the scrollbar from components cos it doesnt go with my sites colors]. So thats not an option.
I looked online and it said 'make a text box, select 'scrollable' then create a button and right click and type in the following into the actions' but when i right click the buttons actions i always get 'current selection cannot have actions applied to it' There was a reason i stopped using flash, and it seems ive stumbled upon that reason again, im reading tutorials on the CS3 Pro version which is the one i have and what its telling me to do is not possible.
Text Button UP, Button DOWN
Click DOWN text scrolls down
Click UP text scrolls up

I want to put scrollable text on a page. It was a template I purchased and was finished and ready to post but wanted to add more text in a scrollable text box. First, my components did not appear in the components window so I had to go to Publish Settings and set it Actionscript 2.0 and they appeared. Great! I created a text box, made the text dynamic, multiline, I see Instance_1 and dragged the UI scroller where it should go. (Yes scrollable text is highlighted) After a thousand attempts it never recognizes it.
I can do it no problem when I create a new movie (a hundred times) just can't get it work in this movie. Yet I can scroll down the text with my mouse but I can't EVER see the scrollbar... When I switch the settings to Actionscript 3 . When I drag the Scroller it says "A component already exists..." then asks me to use or replace. Is there something in this template I need to delete?
i have this web sore I'm trying to work on just trying to keep it basic but user friendly my main problem i am having is it carry's over the images to the next frame they disappear after 3 or so minutes but then when you drag another item into the cart it erases what has been dropped in before
so really what I'm looking to do is i want to be able to keep my pictures, text, drag and drop capabilities, and so on i just want to be able to put it all into a scrolling box
that way the user can scroll through and add items without having images over laying on the next page after they were added to the cart and so on any way to see what I'm working with

I've put text in TextField, set Z coordinate to enable 3D, and placed object close to the screen plane. Text quality is very bad. Is there any way to force Flash draw proper vector text? Fonts are embedded, so it's not a problem.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to print the contents of a scrollable text field. Why after all these years this is such an impossible task in Flash is beyond me. But maybe I'm overlooking something?
Right now I have two text fields. One for display and one for printing that is hidden from the user and is roughly the size of A4 paper. The content of the print text field is scrolled as many times as is necessary and each time is added to a print page.
The function looks like this:
function printText(e:MouseEvent):void {
var printer:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
if (printer.start()) {
[Code]....
Unforntunately this is not very reliable because the size of the print text field does not correspond exactly to the size of the A4 paper and of course the print margins set by the user can differ as well. This results in an overlap of text between the different pages coming out of the printer.
I made a post under actionscript 2.0, but I wasn't sure if it belonged there. So here goes.I made a text box and added a mask to it, it is really long so I made it scrollable. For some reason it keeps cutting off the bottom of the text, meaning it won't scroll all the way down, it truncates it. The text is dynamic and the fonts are embedded, heck I even tried breaking the fonts apart.
View 2 RepliesI have a dynamic text field that scrolls. When I print I can only print what is viewable on the screen and not all the text being scrolled. How do I print what is not viewable within the scrollable text field? Oh yeah, and I don't want to parse the XML content and dynamic Flash conent into several diff frames to print like that since I am using 1 scroller to handle like 30 diff pieces of XML & Flash driven content.
View 3 RepliesI am using Flash Professional 8. I tried to create a scrollable textbox, which has two columns, please see attached image (menu.gif). Unfortunately i have to type out the whole text, even though i have the text already formatted correctly using tables in a html file. Also, why is the keyboard tab button not working within a scrollable text box?? Is there a way to activate it? I have been using the space bar to align text within the textbox. And the alignment is not exact!?
Anyway, when i test (Ctrl+Enter) the movie In Flash 8, the two column text formatting is lost and the text is spread out all over the textbox?? It seems at runtime, the text formatting does not apply? I have managed to create tables in html which display the above text exactly how i want it. However, how can this html file be imported into the textbox in Flash 8?

I 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've built a scrollable text field of alphabetical titles.I looking for actionscript that works something like anchor tags in HTML. (Or a simple way to do it).Even though it scrolls a - z, I also want the user of having the option of clicking on an alphabetical menu from above the text field and then the text field would jump to that letter of the alphabet.
