I want the ability to select some text in a textarea and then replace the selected text with a SpanElement. I cannot use a TextLayoutFormat because it doesn't have an "id" property.
How do I insert a span in a specific position in a textarea?
I have a Spark TextArea with a SpanElement inside. This element has the backgroundColor property set, but I would like to have the background a bit taller because it looks a bit weird at the top like this.[URL]..
I already tried to adjust lineHeight and paddingTop for the SpanElement, but no luck.

i got a prom about TextFlow inside a txtArea. that's my code var t2:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
t2.font = "Arial";t2.size = "14";t2.leading = "2";t2.leftMargin = "0";for (var i:int = 0; i <10; ++i){ this.h1.setStyle("textFormat", t2); h1.htmlText += "<img src='h1.jpg' align='left' vspace='0' hspace='2'>Hi, How're u doin?</img>";}
U can see the output on the pic. It just uses the TextFormat for the last line and why are the spaces to the first pics big and get lower and lower to the followin ones?

Basically we want to be able to open up a docx file in as3 or Flex 4 and convert it to a text flow while preserving formatting, embedded images, tables, columns, etc. I know theorectically it's possible as the new Text Layout Framework is powerful enough to pull it off, but I haven't been able to find any case where someone has achieved anything along these lines except for Adobe's BuzzWord web app which does just this. Ideally the solution would be for RTF documents as conversions to RTF from anything are pretty familiar.

View 1 RepliesI am working as a developer on a Flex/Air application and we are using the buggy Flex RTE (RichTextEditor) to let the user manage his notes. At the moment I am trying to evaluate how costly it would be for us to build a new text component using the TLF (Text Layout Framework).Really important is the question if we can import the HTML text, produced by the RTE straight away. I know that there are some limitations regarding lists with TLF 1.1, but does it work in general?
I have just tried to grab some HTML formatted text from RTE like:

View 1 Replies[code]I want a specific toolTip for "icon". I have read about using HTML and rollOver and rollOut but I'm building this as part of a larger text block; it's difficult to switch from incremental objects to HTML in the middle.If I cannot set an event on the icon, can I create an HTML bit in ActionScript as part (but not all) of a paragraph ?
View 3 Repliesi'm trying to add whitespaces in front of my text, but flex removes all but one whitespace from the text. So i can't format the text.
Here is the specified line:
<s:p> - Lorem</s:p>
<s:p> ipsulum</s:p>
Here its shown correctly but when running the swf it reduces the whitespaces of the second line. Of course i tried to use CDATA but this didn't work too.
Is there an easy way to compare two TextFlow objects with each other? I have two text flow objects that are created with TextConverter.importToFlow() and want to check if they are equal or not. Only way I found so far is to use TextConverter.export() to export them to a string then compare which seems bit convoluted...

View 1 RepliesThe link elements I'm talking about are single words, so they are not wrapped inside the container, which means that they should have a single bounding rectangle. But how do I go about finding this rectangle? I'm familiar with Flex3 but don't know enough about the new Text Layout Engine in Flex4.
View 1 RepliesI have embedded a Font in my flex app. That works on any components without problems.
@font-face {
src:url("../assets/fonts/wedtxtn.ttf");
fontFamily: "CSSFont";
cff: true;
}
However, when I try to apply the font to my TextFlow object, it is not working. However, it does work when I use the FTE and do it my self. I debugged through the TLF and the looks like the correct FontDescription is created.
Here is the code I use to create text (Full Source @ Pastbin)
var element:SpriteVisualElement = new SpriteVisualElement;
element.verticalCenter = 0;
element.horizontalCenter = 0;
// Create Text using TLF
var span:SpanElement = new SpanElement();

But still no joy in inserting into the middle. Also, the above code wouldn't replace highlighted text, but that's not the real concern here.Based on Eugene's link the key to this is EditManager.The following code represents the working updated function:

open google docs, new document, and type in: hello world (world bolded)
then download it as html(zipped)
i unzip the html file, and save it to the assets folder in src folder of my Flex app
i have a Spark:TextArea instance and i want to do:
var importer:ITextImporter = TextConverter.getImporter(TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT);
myTextArea.textFlow = importer.importToFlow(htmlSource);
where htmlSource should point to the saved html file somehow
how do i do this? i tryed embedding, converting to ByteArrayAsset and to String, but i always get the source of the html file and not it's rendered rich text (ie "hello world).

View 1 RepliesI am using text layout framework textflow in Flex 3 to get embedded images. In the edit field for the application the user can apply formatting. This all works fine except if the user deletes all the text they have entered and then starts typing again then the formatting is lost.[code]To setup the initial formatting then similar code to apply the formatting when the user changes it.So how can I stop the user from 'deleting' the formatting if they delete all the text?
View 1 RepliesIts been a while since my last post and i apologise if this has come up before, but what im basically trying to do is insert (not load) a swf into my main fla file. I have my home page (index.fla) and i've downloaded this cool image viewer or slideshow, and i want to insert that into my index.fla file. What I've tried so far. I've inserted a movie clip and named it imageViewer, I then imported (to stage) viewer.swf. This does not work. Something that looks nothing like the image viewer briefly pops up when i run index.fla.
