I just made these quick flash banners for a client but he's saying that the text isn't showing up for him.I have the banners hosted here - http:[url]...........And any idea why it wouldn't be showing up for him? I'm assuming he's running on an outdated version of Flash but I know if that's the case he's going to worry about other people being on the same outdated version he's on and they won't be able to see the text.

I have this HBox inside a TitleWindow. I'm not sure why the text are blurred.
What's the best way to enable a client to edit text in a Flash-only site? I'm not talking about throughout the site, just selected text blocks. I could easily fill them from XML files and provide a file upload facility, but most clients will want something more friendly. I could copy the text to a TextArea for editing within the site and update the text from that but I think I'd end up writing my own wordprocessing software to make it look friendly. What do others do? I don't want to re-invent the wheel!

View 3 RepliesThe title & copyright text of my animation don't show up in the swf unless I break up the words to letters then to shapes. (This also occurs for the feedback of one of my games.) It's a 2.5 minute animation which puts my computer to the limits so that may be the problem. Obviously I'd rather not convert this text to shapes for size & flexibility reasons.
View 7 RepliesA client has sent me a Flash CS3 website template she was working on. I'm supposed to do some work on it. When I load it, it displays incorrectly. The body type appears incorrectly. It's different then what it appears on her computer. Causing all the body text to overlap each other. She has Windows Vista with Flash CS3. I'm using Windows XP Professional with Flash CS4.
When I open the file, it says that 'tahoma' font is missing on my computer. And asks me to select a replacement. Obviously, I have Tahoma on my computer -- everyone does. I even got her to send her version of Tahoma to me from her Windows Font Folder. When I tried to install it, it says "font already installed". So, I pointed it to my Tahoma font as a replacement. This could be the problem. But why does it not recognize my version of tahoma?
I have one api to call and it is an XML file. I got the values from XML and stored in an Array. I need to show the result in a text box that is already created in the stage. But it is not displaying there. I am calling the API from my document class. From there, I created a class for load XML and store the values to an array. from there, I call anoter class to show the result in the stage. that class is linked with the movieclip created. I can trace all the vlues including the value assigned to the text box. but it is not showing to the stage.
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to get a Flash-based form working - and it's 90% there. I even figured out a refresh issue with a list, and that worked perfectly. Fast foward to the final frame. I'm ready to collect all the data from the form and send it when the user clicks "Done". At current, this frame has no real defined code. The only thing on it is the standard "stop();" to prevent the movieclip from going back to the first frame.The only thing that will be displayed on the final frame is a picture and some text. This is...where everything falls apart. I created the text field, named it properly, then wrote "myField.text = "blahblah";" in the main frame. I then ran a movie test. Everything works great ... until the last frame. No text. Tried to embed.. that didn't help.. tried using the textfield variable... nothing there either. For some inexplicable reason, the final frame in my movie refuses to display anything at all except what's on the stage.
View 1 RepliesI am using the following code to open my client email program and I want the address, subject field and body text completed.
submit_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, sendMessage);
var subject="My Subject"var body="This is text. This is text. This is text. This is text. This is text. This is text. "var to="me@address.net"
function sendMessage(event:MouseEvent):void {var email:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:"+to+"?subject=" +subject+ "&body="+body);navigateToURL(email, "_self");}
The problem is no matter what I have tried I cannot get the subject and body text to show any text. The email client open and the correct address is shown. Is this a problem with trying to run it locally and not from server or is there a problem with the code?

View 1 RepliesI can't figure out why my font (type) hasn't been showing up in my Test Movie. I tried it first along with my first scene, and it didn't work. I put the type in a second scene (now 74, don't ask) within the same file, and it still doesn't show up. I'm using a mask to make the type appear and I know from tutorials, I have it going in the correct position to reveal the type. It's clearly not showing up. Even in Test Scene, it's not showing up. I've exhausted all my experience (which isn't saying much) to try

View 3 Repliesa few months ago we bought a flash ready template that I customized with our information. I decided to update the website information and wrote new text. Now when I do the publish preview the upated text is not showing up. I have not change the font, color just the size because in the original it looked too small. when looking at the properties is shown as the default of font (the one the template came with) static text.
What is causing the updated text not to show up? I am not really experienced with flash, i am trying to figure out also how to see the code of the pages but i don't know how to do that.
1.I am getting the content from XML and showing to the text box. If the content is more than the text field size then its hide the content. Please tell me how I adjust the height of the text box according to the XML content.
2.I have some XML content with HTML links and loading this to another text box. I need to highlight the corresponding content(link) when mouse over.

Dynamic Text in Flash ActionScript 2.0 not showing when published
When published all else shows up except the dynamic text. The properties have been set on "Bitmap Text (no anti-alias)" and fonts not seemingly embedded..
I'm working on making a news scrollpane thingamagig. I have a movieclip called "entry" with textfileds (basically it's just a header bar and a bottom border bar with two textfields). These are dynamically attached based on the number of xml nodes into a holder clip and I have that holder clip masked and for some reason the entry movieclips will show, but the actual text doesn't. when I get rid of the mask then the text shows.

There seem to be a lot of people with my problem but all sorts of different things fixed their issue. None of that has worked for me:
Embedding the font
rendering text as html
making the font _sans
changing AA method
im sure I've tried some other random stuff as well..
Basically I've created an order form over multiple pages for products.. everything works.. on the last page which i have named overview I have a script on the top layer which basically fills out 3 dynamic text fields with the products they have ordered.
The script works.. it loads the text into the textfields they are just not visible.
I can even select the text when I enable "Make text selectable".
