I'm trying to update some TextField's style, eg. color, fontSize, fontFamily. I'm creating field by:
var textField:TextField = new TextField();
var style:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
style.parseCSS("p{color: #000000; fontFamily: System; fontSize: 20px;}");
textField.styleSheet = style;

i have this problem with my text field. i have this dynamic text field, and i want to load external text files and show them there. this all works fine and dandy but when i try to make a scrollbar along with it, it gives the height of the text field as the original one from the flash file, not the new text.
View 8 RepliesCould you please tell me how this photo animation effect is achieved - see the pictures that slide seamlessly to the left every say 3 seconds (the pictures just below the BIGSTOCKPHOTO logo).. Site- www.bigstockphoto.com
I have noted this effect being used in many other sites.. And none of them seem to employ flash for making this. Please let me know whether this is just JS or whether its purely a CSS based effect, and probably a place where i can read on how to make this.
How can I refresh the textfield to effect stylesheet on it. My problem is, I have to assign a StyleSheet after assigned a htmlText assignment. I mean, if you set a stylesheet after htmlText assignment it is work, but if you assign stylesheet before assignment a html text it is not effect.
HTML Code:
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.StyleSheet;
var myLabel:TextField = new TextField();
var labelText:String="<span class='defStyle'>Hello world.</span>";
var newStyle:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();

I'm looking to make a fisheye effect on a textfield for a project. I've already found some code on the internet but it doesn't quite render how i'd like for it to (the text is pixelated and deformed, I want a nice round fisheye).
View 1 RepliesI have a TextField which styleSheet i want to change at runtime.For testing I created a new .FLA put a Textfield on stage, set it to dynamic, named it mytxt and added some AS3:[code]Well nothing changed I still have a default black text when I publish the swf.My goals:
- Set a TextField in Flash IDE
- set the font, weight, color, size etc.
- apply a styleSheet containing colors for links
The tutorials for using CSS in Flash seem pretty straightforward, but for some reason they just don't work for me. I'm using this code:
Code:
this.createTextField("myText", 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
myText.multiline = true;
myText.wordWrap = true;
myText.html = true;

When I Debug>Variables, there is one line in particular that seems to be the key:
Variable _level0.myFormat = undefined
I am trying to attach a styleSheet to a textField. If I have a tag defined in the css file it will not show in the textField. all the other text is there just not the link (a {font-weight: bold;} is the only thing in my css file).
I tried adding a <p> tag to the text and the css - then all my text disappeared.I deleted everything out of the css file (while still attaching it to the textField in flash). and all my text showed including the link, which worked. But it naturally had no style.
I can't find out how to apply a stylesheet to a text field. It just does not work.This is the css:
Code:
p {
font-size: 24;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-style: italic;
[code]....
I'm trying to put some leading on a body of text, however it doesn't seem to work after a stylesheet has been applied. Without the stylesheet it works..
Here's what im doing:
ActionScript Code:
//CSS
cssStyle = function(my_txt){
[code]...
I've just discovered that using a stylesheet on an input textfield renders it uneditable. Does anyone one know of a work-around? Trying to build a text editor for a backend project, but it seems to have crashed before takeoff.

I have a TextField that has been populated with html text, which includes images using the <img> tag. I don't want to display these images to the user, however when I apply a StyleSheet with the img tag having the display property set to none, it doesn't appear to work.
View 1 RepliesI have two text fields and the user can use a button to underline text in either field. I have a listener on each field that keeps tracks of the last clicked in field.
public function setLastActiveTextField(event:FocusEvent):void { lastTextActiveField=event.currentTarget; trace(lastTextActiveField.name); }
[Code]....
lastActiveTextField is defined as an Object. When the highlight button is hit, it reports the correct the range, but I can't figure out how to send the formatting to the actual textfield without setting up another if (lastActiveTextField.name==field2) control. Also, stage.focus won't work because the object isn't really on the stage, I guess. There has to be a way to refer to the textField object.
I parse an xml file that his content is:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<operators>
<operator><name>OPerator1 </name></operator>
[Code].....
I display the name of operator in a TextField after parsing the xml file my problem is to loop through this different TextField with a fade effect.
[code]The idea was that xpos would update every time the button is clicked, and go from 250 to 300 to 350, etc.I don't really understand why xpos doesn't update; it always remains 250, except for within the function (when it temporarily goes to 300.)
View 9 RepliesCurrently I have a for loop which goes through and draws a really long list of objects. Each object is contained in its own sprite and as it draws them I wanted to have a text box saying "Ojects" + nObjectsTotalLoaded + " of " + nObjectsTotal + " have been Loaded." Right now I am timing out because my loops takes so long, but i figured that if I have a textbox updating as it creates each object that it will also fix my problem with timeout.

View 1 RepliesI'm building a simple quiz app. Programing in class, 6 buttons, Q's in xml etc. Everything running fine.
First question loads fine. All buttons with alternatives update fine with info from Xml.Push the right button, gives correct feedback, runs animation and runs "addframescript" code correctly at end of frame.The addFrameScript call's up function to reset button animation and newlevel function. this works just fine, all the buttons update with the new alternatives that correspond with the new question, except for the button 1, which is programed to be the button with the right answer every time. It goes blank. I've traced out the textfield on the button and it says that the textfield contains the correct text. It just goes invisible for some reason
I did test every functions before implementing the "addFrameScript" and everything work fine at that time. newlevel function called inn every text.[code]...

View 3 RepliesI've been using CS4 to create flash 10 applications. It works well in other browsers, but IE 6 will not tell the users that they need to update their Flash Player. Instead, it will play the flash as if it's a video (keep looping from frame 1 to end) without allowing any interaction..

View 3 RepliesI have created a simple method to retrieve XML output from an HTTPService and populate a database from it, but due to the async nature of Flex, the functions go through while its still retrieving data - hence causing the function to return a null value. find code below;
View: Declarations
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:dao="database.*"
[Code]....
But it can go through the database population before it can retrieve the result from HTTPService hence producing a null result.
ActionScript Code:
var shared:SharedObject=SharedObject.getLocal("hightscore.txt");
shared.data.score=Score;
shared.flush();
trace(shared.data.score);
it trace the score after finishing but it doesn't update hightscore.txt
