I have a textInput control that sends .txt value to an array collection. The array collection is a collection of US zip codes so I use a regular expression to ensure I only get digits from the textInput.
private function addSingle(stringLoader:ArrayCollection):ArrayCollection {
arrayString += (txtSingle.text) + '';
var re:RegExp = /D/;

View 7 RepliesI wrote a class that converts possible color formats (that I can think of) into valid hex colors appended to a pound sign (#). So what it basically does is check and convert a color in any of the following formats
uint
String("colorname")
String("nnnn...")[code].......
into String("#nnnnnn") regardless of empty spaces.Color names are the current standard 147 CSS color names, as listed in here.This class can be used by its single static method to 'normalize' colors in an html if an appropriate replace pattern is used. The method works for a single color. This, in fact, might be used while parsing an html data into a text field in flash, for example. Additionally you can input an optional second 'default color' parameter in the method.
problem stated in my title. Attach is my code.
Code:
this.createTextField("myText",this.getNextHighestDepth(),23,72,300,400);
//bgPic._alpha = 25;
var titleS:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleS.font = "TradeGothic";

How do you set the leading of a block of static text in flash?? As I couldn't find a "leading" control in the panel... (only kerning)
Is there such way to do so without using actionscript such as myText in html format...?
I've written a simple MovieClip replacement that converts an existing imported MovieClip to a sequence of BitmapData. This removes the requirement for Flash to render vector data in the MovieClip on each frame.
But BitmapData has a huge memory footprint. I've tried converting the BitmapData to a ByteArray and using the compress() method. This results in a significantly smaller memory footprint. But it has proven impractical. For each redraw, I tried uncompressing()'ing the ByteArray, then using SetPixels to blit the data to the screen, then re-compressing() the frame. This works but is terribly slow.
So I was wondering if anybody else has an approach I could try. In Flash, is it possible to compress bitmap data in memory and quickly blit it to the screen?
I wonder how native animated GIFs work in Flash. Does it uncompress them to BitmapData behind the scenes, or is frame decompression done on the fly?
I've looked in the user manual and I can't find any reference to toString() for syntax information. Isn't there a parameter for me to use to specify the string lenght? And whether to add leading zeros or not?Here's the code I need to add leading zeros:

function playSound(e:Event){ SoundMixer.stopAll(); var num:Number = Math.ceil(Math.random()*43); bigNum.text = num.toString(); var path:String = "Track No" +

I'm a noob to actionscript so this should be easy:How do I delete leading characters from a string? I have a string that contains (at times) both numeric & non-numeric characters. If I want to delete all the leading 9's, how would I do that?var testVar:String = '999998gjek74k'; want the testVar to be 'gjek74k'.So far, I have (though not working):
var testVar:String = '999998gjek74k';
testVar.replace(/^0/g, "");
Is there a way to make NumericStepper shows leading 0 to numbers which is below 10 ?

I was reading the 'Isometric Transformations' tutorial by Danko Kozar and I have a few questions. I understand what all the code does, but not how it does it. First of all, how does the following code work:
transforms x,y,z coordinates into Flash x coordinate
xFla = function (x, y, z) {
// cartesian coordinates[code].....
I understand that it converts 3d coordinates to 2d coordinates, but I don't understand how. What numbers whould be punched into x, y, and z to acquire certain desired effects?Also, what's the difference between moveTo and lineTo:
red line
style(1, "0xFF0000", 100);
plot(0, 0, 0);
draw(200, 0, 0);
Im returning the time as a string from a function like so
return minutes + ":" + seconds + ":" + millisec;
But I need each part to always display with two digits and show leading zeros.

View 1 Repliesim making a quick flash cd rom for my digital music label and i wanted to have buttons (leading to the different content scenes) that were moving around constantly (kinda flying around the screen) thing is im not sure what im doing wrong ive tried using an animated movieclip as a button but the button functions dont seem to work...the reason ive done this is because ive used a stop action on scene one frame 1 (so the buttons display properly) but i want the buttons to move around constantly the only option i know would work would be to create tweens moving the buttons around on screen one but it would eventually stop unless i can somehow loop back to frame one.

i was hoping that someone might have an answer to my question. is there ANY way to dynamically change the kerning of an input box? i'd like to give users the ability to modify the kerning of my .swf file. i know flash allows you to change properties like font size, colour, alignment, etc., but i can't find a way to change the kerning property. i don't even think one exists for them. so is there any kind of work around to this?also, is there any reason why i can't use negative values for leading for the input box? it only allows me to use positive numbers when i try to change it dynamically.

When I try to load text from XML into a text field any leading line breaks or spaces are ignored. For example:

The preceding loads into the text field without the leading spaces before "some text". How can I force the spaces to appear?
