I am trying to make a textfield to display the player's score. I call the textfield "score", and want it to display "Player Score: [score]".
Right now, my code looks like this: score.text = String "Player Score:" (scoreValue);
This isn't working, but I feel that it must be very close. What is the proper method for doing this?
Im trying to display an integer in a text field, but it always produces an 1067 error, inplicit conversion of a value type int to a string.
The code im using to produce my textfield:
Code:
private var scoreText:TextField;
Code:
scoreText = new TextField( );
Code:
scoreText.text = score;
scoreText.width = 50;

found that code to display html format text to dynamic textfield in as3:
var url:String = "http://edeejay.dyndns.org:8000/currentsong?sid=1";
var loadit:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loadit.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);

I am trying to get this result: You can type a number in a TLF textfield var a:int a=100
[Code]...
so basically I am trying to save the number in the textfield as an Integer this is the error I am getting: Scene 1, Layer 'Layer 1', Frame 6, Line 138 1151: A conflict exists with definition inzetBlackjack in namespace internal. EDIT: I see that I am also using Action Script 2.0 again. But Its supposed to be in ActionScript 3.0..
I want to have a dynamic integer reference.
For instance
ActionScript Code:
var heart:int = 5;
var stalker:int = heart;
[Code].....
Obviously stalker traces as "5" while "heart" is "7". However, I need to make stalker a pointer reference to heart.
when I try to type cast something, there r 2 ways to do it:if var integer holds a integer (Uint)
text_txt.text = integer as String;or text_txt.text = String( integer );
but sometimes when I want to pass a value to a function both ways don't work and only one way works, when should I use option 1 and 2???
Is it possible to create a textfield with text inside it, and track or trigger the text as a movieclip wich allow you to do onRelease etc.
Or trigger only the created textfield as clip with behaviour of onRelease etc.
I have no problem dynamically loading text if I place a textField on the stage but I can't seem to get the following to work using the createTextField. I shortened my code to make it easier to read and still show what I am trying to do. Also I can I place the text within the BlueMenu or only on top of it? Is so how?
Code:
import flash.filters.BlurFilter;
import flash.filters.*;

I've created a custom format for a TextField text as below:
Code:
var _format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
var _font:Font = new VerdanaPlain();
_format.font = _font.fontName;
_format.size = 12;
and then I've applied it to a TextField like so:
Code:
var _text:TextField = new TextField();
_text.setTextFormat(_format);
_text.text = "Here is some text";
and for some strange reason, the format does not seem to have any effect on the text in the text field. It still shows using default settings. And yes I have exported the font for linkage.
I have a display box on the stage and I am having trouble getting the x and y coordinates to sync on the createTextfield box. The width and height are correct when I test it. The textfield does not show up in mcDisplayBack. How do I get them to line up?
Script
var nWidth:Number = mcDisplayBack._width;
var nHeight:Number = mcDisplayBack._height;

I'm dynamically loading a movieclip onto the stage.

In this movieclip I have a dynamic text field named 'game_score_txt' In the class for this movieclip; The_end.as I want to display some text. I figured the following code would work:

But I get the following error: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: TextField.
how do I convert a text string from an external txt-file to a integer s� I can use the number
(external file: var1=20)
(flash: loadVariablesNum("datafile.txt",0); ...it works but the var1=20 is a text string :-(
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::SimpleButton@f8beaf1 to flash.text.TextField.
I put in a dynamic textbox and attempt to print something into it. but once i put in that textbox, i get the above error when i debug.
I parse an xml file that his content is:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

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.
First let me warn you that I'm "old school" i.e. code is on my timeline and the only classes used were those automatically created when I added several new fonts to Script1.swf which is my movieclip for embedded fonts.
On the first frame of my main movieclip which is named Round.fla, I have loaded Script1.swf that contains the fonts using the loader object. I'm using a trace statement that shows that Script1_lb.swf is loaded.
I am using a listbox (script1_lb) with movieclip icons (jpg picture of the sample font) and the data is the name of the font class, like this: script1_lb.dataProvider.addItem( {icon:akaDora_mc, data:"akaDora"} );
[Code]...
how can i make a movieclip and a textfield to resize to the content of the text in the textfield? I mean, if I have a textfield with 3 letters font name XXX and then the content of the field change, how can i resize te textfield so the text dont autoadjust to the 3 letter space?

View 4 RepliesI have MovieClip with TextField in, how can I dispatch when change text in TextField or remove TextField or add something else.
View 3 Repliesi have this code (from another thread), which was got through the support of fellow geniuses on this forum but they showed how to put this into a textfield, which is what i want to do, but they showed how to do it before I made it display just the news feeds. So when i tryed to add what they taught me to this code BAM FAIL! So im asking one more/THE LAST TIME for the support from the forum to display this.

Im making a swf that makes a Tween of 3 textFields, when i export it for flash Player 10 it works right. But as soon as i export it for Flash Player 9 or play it on a machine with Flash Player 9, everything works right except the TextField, it just doesn't display but doesn't throw any error. Even the TweenEvent gets dispatched like if it had worked right.I've been debugging it and all the variables are present and with correct values. Is there an issue of TextField or Tween compatibility with Flash Player 9??, NOTE: Currently Working with CS4

Does anyone know of an XML utility Class that will "auto-format" XML to display within a textField? Just looking for a down-n-dirty solution to display the entire XML tree (via xml.toXMLString()) within a textBox, but would love to find a utility that would format the XML so that it's easier to read within a textField.
Something like:
Code:
<forecast
segment="A"
day_segment="Afternoon"
day_of_week="4"

Is this at all possible? I'm trying to write raw XML (tags, attributes, indents and all) in a text field. The problem is that the text field is using .htmlText, for text coloring, so I cannot simply use the .text property instead. The result is that the XML tags are interpreted as HTML and subsequently only their contents are shown.

I have drawn a textfield (instance name - my_Text) onto the stage. In my actions I have a variable (called 'myFrame') which is an 'int' and the value is a number drawn from an xml feed. Now when I trace the variable 'trace(myFrame)' the correct number displays into the output window. However, when I try to display this variable, using 'myText.text = myFrame', an error occurs. How do I display this integer into a textfield?

I have a textfield (the one that shows ammo) that doesent display all numbers. U have uploaded the swf. The code that I used to make the textfiled display some text is:
ActionScript Code:
function checkAmmo(e:Event){
var percentAmmo:Number = curAmmoInClipFirst/clipSizeWep1*100;
if (curAmmoInClipFirst >= 0){
trace(curAmmoInClipFirst);
ammoLeftBar.bar.scaleY = percentAmmo/100
} else {
Char.reloadGun();
} ammoLeftBar.ammoLeftNumber.text = curAmmoInClipFirst.toString() + " / " + clipSizeWep1.toString();
}}}
Which is triggered onEnterFrame.
