Actionscript 3 :: Translate SIFR (for Hyphenation And With The Help Of A Converter)?
May 12, 2010
One thing asked for a lot with sIFR is hyphenation.The only problem is that Hyphenator.as is written in AcionScript 3, while sIFR is in ActionScript 2.I found an AS2 to AS3 converter s3-converter-createtextfield-geturl-handling/ but the result examples.bezel.be/sIFR-as3.as is not working yet.
So I've looked this up in a few different places, and the only answer I've seen is "style the span.sIFR-alternate element". Problem is, if I apply any styles to that element that will actually have it appear & be placed correctly, it shows up alongside the sIFR text when FlashBlock isn't present (e.g. in Safari/IE) or is disabled. Here's the default styles for .sIFR-alternate:
I am having a problem with sIFR 3 not displaying in IE. I get 3 larges black XXX in IE yet it displays fine in Firefox. I have checked i do have the most recent version of flash installed correctly.
I am trying to use sIFR to replace the headlines (e.g. The Tour of A Lifetime) on this page: [URL] The font I want to swap in is Verlag by hoefler & frere jones. I had this working the other day but it suddenly stopped working: the font does not replace. All the js/css/flash files are linked correctly. I tested my verlag.swf and it works. And, I tested sIFR with a different font and the replacement worked. Am I having issues because I have yet to buy a Verlag license for the server?
Can we convert swf to flv through Actionscript. I mean without any converter. I need to make a project in which i have to convert my swf to flv at run time (on server).
I am trying to implement a large font for sIFR, but it seems to have a ceiling where you cant go any higher. I have adjusted the the variable MAX_FONT_SIZE within the sIFR.as to no avail. Is this possible or is it a limitation with flash?
It works perfectly when pulled within labels like in the demo.[code]note: (id="slidesbigtext") loads text from javascript without any issues, just can't find a way to make sIFR work in this situation..
and i need to style a b inside a span inside a div ... and i just can't find the way, if i add another sIFR.replace(blah... it won't work, it messes with the other replacement sometimes
I have been told to make a simple converter using as3 in flash to convert kilometers to miles, when i test the movie, type a random number and press enter, nothing happens
here is the code:
kilometers_txt.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_ DOWN,convertKilometers); function convertKilometers(k:KeyboardEvent)void:{ var kilometers:Number;
I need to translate this AS2 code into AS3 ASAP! how to translate a few lines from AS2 to AS3 [URL]I was supposed to make a flash 9.0 cs3 menu with buttons that stay down until another button is clicked.I've found an example of this on the net, one that is perfect in every way for what I need to have done.However, as always, there's a catch. The code on that site is written in AS2, which doesn't work for me because I'm using some functions which are incompatible with it (I suppose they're AS3 supported only, e.g. loaderComplete)
I've got a demo page up here; you can view source to see what I'm trying to do. As you can see, everything about it seems to be working except for colors. I'm trying to set the color to blue (#0000ff), but it stays as black. I created a custom SWF file for my font, embedding four different variations of a single font in order to accommodate for different styles per these instructions (because this particular font family stores regular, bold, italic, and bold italic as four disjoint font names).
For posterity I'll paste some of the source code from that demo page I linked to here:
Ok, I'm using Jquery to build a dynamic menu, and sIFR to change the text to TrajanPro font.
This does not mix. I want to find a way to make it mix, though.
sIFR has automatic parsing of links, so that Flash sends you to the link location. What it doesn't do is pass on javascript triggers. I'm trying to make my menu as accessible as possible, by using hard links and then rewriting them with Jquery into managing the visibility of submenus, like this ~
My sIFR 3 font replacement is working great in FF and IE except when I use it on a 'services' page that has an unrelated Flash object feature at the bottom. Only the first sIFR3'ed element shows up in IE on this page. I am also using jQuery 1.2.6 on this page to bring up random content. It is a windows xp pc.
In IE, the html on the 'services'page sIFR'ed elements has become garbled in the browser as I see when I view the source. Things like this: nodeIndex='1' and jQuery1307565945701='4' are added to the ul and li elements and should not be. The class 'sIFR-replaced' is not being added from sIFR like it is supposed to be.
The jQuery does not interfere with sIFR3 font replacement on my other pages because they don't have the extra Flash file on the bottom. The Flash file is a shockwave cab file, version 9,0,0,0 (that I did not add).I see this error in the console ' 'match(...).1' is null or not an object' but I got this same error elsewhere and it wasn't affecting anything.
One set for Celsius to Fahrenheit and another for Fahrenheit to Celsius. One set consists of a input box with a button next to it and a dynamic text box for the converted number. And then the same thing for the other set. I was just wondering what the code would be for it all.
I'm using LoadVars and in my one variable I basically have a link <a href="contact.html">Contact Us</a>.Is there anyway that I could make this into AS to do something like gotoAndPlay()?Is there a better way to do this? This is a dynamic text field so I guess I could use a movie clip and put an action on that but I'm not sure where it would end so I'd have to put in the movie clip dynamically and then if I do that I'm not sure how to put the action on it.
My site in progress has some large graphical buttons that uses sIFR to display their headings. The structure looks like this:
[Code]...
I'm replacing the <h2> element with sIFR 3, revision 436. Everything works great until I activate sIFR. The font is replaced just fine, but the heading can no longer be clicked even though the rest of the button can. I tried to add another <a> inside the <h2> heading but that broke the whole layout since multiple <a> tags can't be nested. Is there a "correct" way to fix this or should I work around it with something ugly like a z-indexed clickable blank.gif on top of the whole thing? Or is there something else wrong that I've missed?
I have integrated sIFR3 and it shows perfectly in my home page but not on any other pages. I never changed anything only the name of the font. Here is my sifr-config.js:
Is there a tool that will convert an exported Flash library element (ie Component/MovieClip) to an AS3 class with Flex syntax, e[Embed(source="graphic.png")]
Most of the time when it comes to sharing FLA files compatibility is an issue. For me I have CS3 at college, CS4 at work and CS5 at home so saving as a specific version is an issue expacially as most people seem to have CS3. Is there such thing as a converter to allow the opening or saving of different versions? CS5 cannot save as a CS3 which is the main problem for me.
Why the output would be NaN? Code: stop(); convertToCNY_btn.onRelease = convertToCNY; convertToUSD_btn.onRelease = convertToUSD; function convertToCNY() { trace("convertToCNY clicked"); [Code] ..... I actually have to use xml to get the exchange rate, but I'd figure I'd start off like this to see if it works. Obviously it doesn't, for reasons beyond me, as it always is XD.
