In Flash you have the option to embed only certain unicode blocks of selected font. Those characters will then be available in your project.Which unicode block is needed to display certain latin-based language? It's obvious in cases like Greek or Hebrew but what latin extension do I need for German, Danish or Czech language?
I have the unicode for that char, how do I display it? 0x023D2A textField.text = ???; I have have the name of the character. Can I reference it by name?
I am assigned a text box through AS some text and I sometimes need that text to contain a unicode character. Actually, U+27A1 is the unicode for it. So how do I make flash realize that it's meant to interrupt that as unicode instead of just plain text?
I was doing something with GraphicsPath, unlucky, I couldn't solve cubic curves. I found there is a method curveTo in Graphics, but it only supports quad curves.

I need to use softkeyboard for a flash program developed for windows desktop, and I tried the example given on the following page: [URL] When I test the movie, it gives me a compiler error: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property needsSoftKeyboard through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite. I noticed that this feature is available to flash players 10.2 or higher, so I updated my CS4, but it still didn't work. Does anybody know what is causing the problem?
We have fusion charts which is based on flash. In Windows XP, characters in Flash are square boxes. In other OS it shows normally. XML are sent to Flash using FlashVars. You can check charts here: [URL] And this is a code which is embedding chart. I have added BOM in the begining of DataXml.

This is a rather advanced problem but apparently I'm not the only one having it.So far I've been using external font loading in all my projects. A Tahoma.swf with a Tahoma Font library item and basically two lines of code:ActionScript Code:import flash.text.Font;Font.registerFont(TahomaSmooth);As soon as I load the font in my application it's ready for use. This is Jesse Freeman's method, in case it looks familiar.The problem is Flash CS4 doesn't embed polish fonts. And clients dnt lke t read tet that hs mssng chrcters. Unfortunately for anyone who isn't english Adobe didn't forsee that people might actually want to specify the character set when embeding Fonts. This strikes me as odd, as supposedly the whole font was supposed to be imported, at least that's how it originally worked, AFAIK.
I keep trying to place some pngs in an XML file inside flash. The jpgs work fine but when it gets to the pngs nothing shows up. Do you need to have a special Action Script?
