Why Is There Extra White Space At The Top Of Swf File
Jul 22, 2009
I can't figure out how to get rid of extra white space in the browser at the top of a swf file. It looks fine when I preview the file, but when I do publish preview in flash/ try to incorporate in HTML, there's an extra 1/4" at top of window.
I am trying to parse a string in order to remove all extra white spaces.Iâm working in AS3 and at the moment the only pattern I found remove all content:
After turning my files to fla and creating swf I happy embedded them into an area in my Dreamweaver page. A grey space area appeared with a Flash icon. A command window open placing two files in a script folder and then I went to the browser (safari in this case) and there was my webpage with a white space where the Flash video should have been.
I am currently maintaing a multi-linual app. It uses LoadVars.sendAndLoad() to populate dynamic fields with text appropriate to the user's current language. It works fine, except in a few cases. Certain Cyrillic characters, as well as certain Latin characters (such as Å‚) appear with an extra space after them. I have not figured out a way around this. I am using embedded fonts, and am embedding all the appropriate characters.
I've tried using different fonts, and I get the same problem with the same characters across all fonts. If I use device fonts, there is no problem, but this would have to be a last resort, since I'd like to have antialiasing, etc available. I have trace()-d the strings and have confirmed that there's no funny business going on with sendAndLoad(); the text is being properly downloaded.
Note that I am using Flash 8 targeting Flash 6, but targeting Flash 8 doesn't fix the problem. I am wondering if anyone else has run into this issue or a similar one.
i have done a project, in which, i have loaded set of check boxes in to a empty movie clip and i load that movie clip in to Scroll Pane component. all are working fine, but while scrolling, in the bottom of the scroll pane i got so much of extra empty space. How can i corrrect this.
Using RichText editor, if i add bold for my text then i am getting extra space for both side of text. for example "this is test" if i add bold for "t<b>his</b> is test" means the out is like "t his is text"whenever i add bold or italic etc.. one extra space will get add.
I've developed a relatively simple calendar app in Flash that reads an XML file and displays text based on what day it is. A different bit of text displays in the same text box. Since the text is of varying lengths, I wrote a function to resize the text to be large enough or small enough to fit the box. Here's my function:
Code: // Generic function for increasing text size to fill its container function AutoTextResize(textElement, maxHeight):void { textElement.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
[Code]....
It behaves as if the textHeight is LARGER than the height of the box, despite the values it outputs in the traces.
I've got a dynamic vertical scrolling gallery which works fine except for one small thing. There is lots of space underneath the last item in the gallery which shouldn't be there... [URL] I can't for the life of me figure out why the extra space is there at the bottom...
Using the following code, I push data from an xml file into a classic dynamic text box that is configured to render text as html. For some reason there is an obscene amount of white space between paragraphs. I am not sure why it is there since I have already set it to ignore white space. How would I get rid of it?
I'm using loadVars to import text from a text file and then put it into a dynamic text field - rendered in HTML. There is an extra space in the first line of text for some reason. I've checked the dynamic text field and theres no spaces or returns in it - its empty before putting the text into it.
so i have some scrollbar(track and button) and some content.the formula i am using to calculate to calculate y of content is the following:
//contentStarting.y and scrollbarButtonStarting.y are positions of sprites at the moment they are created content.y = -((contentStarting.y -scrollbarButtonStarting.y) +scrollbarButton.y) * ((content.height- content.mask.height) / (scrollbarTrack.height - scrollbarButton.height));
the only problem i have is that i need to add extra space after content, so basically i want forumla to act as if content. height = content.height + extraSpace , but unfortunatelly setting the height scalesY, which is what i don't want.

k, so i have a function that checks to see if a user name and email that's being registered already exists in my DB. if the user name previously exists, a 1 is returned. 2 for email and 3 in neither previously exist. if i hard code my user name an existing user name, "joe", who already exists, into my php file and run it in my browser, i get an echoed answer of "1" as i should- nothing less, nothing more. if i don't hard code it and run "joe" over from flash and trace(event.target.data);, i get 1 with a bunch of carriage returns after it in my output window.
I am printing a dynamic text from flash. Every thing works fine, But I get unwanted spaces/ small boxes at the end of every page. Using string functions I tried to remove the last character if it is a space.Even though I am getting this problem.
I have a web design for a client that was pretty much complete. They decided that they wanted to replace one of the graphics with a flash animation. When I added the swf file to the layout in Dreamweaver it apparently is adding some space around the swf which breaks the rest of the design. It looks to be about 4 pixels or so of space that is getting added. I experimented with padding, margins, borders on every element in the design. I tried changing the Scale parameter of the swf to "no border" and "exact fit". I tried enclosing the elements in a table. To simplify things I created a new blank page in Dreamweaver and added the two elements that are giving me grief. The original width of the design was 792.
On the top I had 2 graphics, the first was 212 wide and the second was 580 wide. The first graphic is the one that got replaced with the swf file. The swf is also 212 wide. But for some reason there is that extra space on the right side of the swf that forces the second graphic to the next line. You can see the example here: [URL]. This shows what happens when the original graphic was replaced with the swf. (The swf doesn't do anything as I actually replaced the client's swf with one I made that has the original graphic as the only item in the movie). If you look here: [URL]. I changed the width of the second graphic to 574 wide. That kept the graphic on the same line, but you can clearly see that the swf has the unwanted space to the right.
URL...The problem is with the flash banner at the top. It was created with a utility for creating banners and displays in firefox without any problems. In IE 8 there is white space to the right and I cannot get rid of it anyhow.
We are using Mike Davidson's SIFR implementation and so far so great, however we have noticed that it converts any white space into %20's, unfortunately that breaks any % signs we have in our product descriptions.
There is a white space above the flash file. My file is 360 pix high, but I need the default bar at the bottom. So I set it to be 400. But the extra 40 pix got shared by the bar and an unwanted white space on the top.
If I set it to 360, no space, but no bar either. In either case, there is an extra 2 pix double lines on top. I want to remove the space and double lines.
I am trying to load an external text file containing some HTML. I am very new to AS3, and am wondering how I would go about ignoring all the white space in the file. Here's the code I'm using:
Does anyone know how to remove the white space which shows up under Firefox when viewing your page with a flash movie and an image next/under it? With IE the flash and any images next to it butt against each other like they're supposed to, but under Firefox the white space shows up. How do you get rid of it?
I have a WP 3.0.2 site. When I try to embed a swf file I have uploaded, all I get to show up, in either a post or a page, is a white area the size of the height & width paramaters. In order to play the flash video, I need to right click and select "play" from the menu so watch the movie.
I am trying to figure out what I am doing wrong or why there are not play, pause stop, controls showing up and why the video preview image does not show up either
I am pulling my hair out over this one.surprised
NOTE; The WP SWFObject Plug-ins do not help with this. I have tried many of them to no avail.
I have a flash movie, height = 151px width = 228, this is placed within a table cell ( cellpadding = 0 cellspacing = 0 vertical-align = top), but when it displays within the explorer windows thereis a white space about 20px above the flash movie. I want the flash movie to appear directly under the grey lines.[code]...
