View 3 Replieswhen I add a dark glow to some text using 'Glowfilter', the text is set to use antialias for readability.When I preview my flash file the text renders incorrectly - the last few pixels on the right hand side of the block of text are missing. i.e. if I use the text 'word' then the vertical line on the right of the 'd' character doesn't render.If I change the antialias setting on the text to use device font or antialias for animation the problem doesn't happen.

View 3 RepliesI'd like to display antialiased text on a component (in this case, a FB4 Spark Label, but that's irrelevant).
Am I reading the docs correctly, and the only way to antialias the text in Flash Builder 4 is to actually embed the whole damn font, even though it's vanilla Arial which 99.9% of all users have???
is there a peice of actionscript which will control the smoothness or antialias of the text? we have:
Text = "page name";
letters = Text.split("");
letterformat = new TextFormat();[code]....
is theree a line of actionscript that i can add in to make the text readable?
i have a problem with the line space flash creates when a dynamic text is loaded in a dynamic text field on the stage i put a dynamic textFild with istance name "profile_text". then im loadin in it a text. my text is written in the Notepad like this

i already set a Textformat to my dynamic text with i tryied to play with the "Leading".. but i think it something dealing with paragraph. how i can decrease spacing between paragraphs??
I have a font embedded for a List component. It displays the text anti-aliased, but I would really like to have Flash display the text in the component as "anti-alias for readability," .
View 6 RepliesI have a textfield with dynamic text which I populate with text via actionscript. The textfield is set to anti-alias for readability but when I change the text in actionscript it is not ant-aliased anymore. I tried enforcing it with
createAccount.embedFonts = true;
createAccount..antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
it is more or less like this: i have some things drawn into a container sprite; those things may include text and other stuff. then i create a bitmapdata and i render all that stuff into the bitmapdata, so when rendering it does not slow down too much, and i put that bitmapdata into a bitmap, and that bitmap into another sprite (this is because i pass it as parameter to a function set to receive a sprite, not a visual object). when i rotate the sprite that contains the bitmap, the picture looks kinda blocky, and the text appears very ugly, specially when there is rotation, even if there is no angle yet (probably due to rounding it may take as different than zero), the text appears with some lines that crosses it,probably due to rounding problems. i saw there was an option to smooth the bitmap when scaling though i have not read too much into it yet, i have also thought about adding a blur filter if rotation != 0, but i believe it would be making a mess out of it. It is working fine now, but it looks ugly when rotating, how do i set up a sprite so it antialiases when rotating?
View 1 RepliesI'm looking for a good way to antialias a bitmap i'm generating with actionscript3. My goal would be to achieve this processing from scratch.I read a lot on the subject but the most common algorithm are looking too loud (means it's freaky cpu-intensive) to work properly within my swf, because i'm using a scale2x algorithm to smooth the edges of my shape. It doesn't have to be colorfull, since my shape is black and white !
View 2 Repliesi'm trying to make a photo gallery but when i try to scale them, i get this distortions in the thumbs. i try to find how to fix this problem, searching in google, i found that i have to convert them to bitmap, but i can't make it work.

As far as I know, smoothing of loaded swf file is not possible?To make loaded bitmap smooth/antialias I use:
ActionScript Code:
_bmp = _adImage.content as Bitmap;
_bitmapNew = new Bitmap(_bmp.bitmapData, "auto", true);
_image.unit.addChild(_bitmapNew);
That of course, works fine.But is there a way to the the similar for loaded swf file?
I am using embedded fonts in combination with antiAliasType ADVANCED which gives good results for smaller fontsizes.But if the textField contains a lot of text (> 20000 characters) then parts of the text is simply NOT shown. I have experimented with different values of the sharpness, but without results.

View 1 RepliesI'm using the dynamic text scroller from [URL] found at [URL] Here's a link to my zipped files too... [URL]
1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.
is possible to align text in dynamic text control vertically to the middle? In flash CS3.
View 1 RepliesI am working in Flash CS5 and I have placed a text field (dynamic, classic text) on the stage. I am accessing it through Actionscript on the same frame like this:
var ct:TextField = TextField(getChildByName("Temperature"));
ct.text = "Hello world";
What ACTUALLY appears is this: So... The H, Ls, and D are gone. Mysteriously. Without warning. I am sitting here utterly confused. Is this just me?
PS. The text field is set to Myriad Pro Bold, a font on my computer, so it isn't like it's a font problem.
i can't get flash to show, and in a dynamic text box which loads text via a variable from a .txt file on a server.

View 3 RepliesCurrently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:
Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}
Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.

View 5 RepliesI'm relatively new to Actionscript, in fact, I just figured out today how to load text from an external source. I have another issue that I'm not sure how to handle. I have buttons for my main nav, a main text box, and a mini text box (both text boxes are loaded dynamically from external files). I want to have the mini text box load new external text files in the main text box. For instance, I have a button for music, which loads a list of songs in the mini text box. I want to be able to click on the name of one of the songs and have it load the lyrics in the main text box. I'm sure it's simple, I'm just new.

This is what I tried, I am very new to Action Script, so excuse the futility of my code.

View 2 RepliesI'm new to Flash Pro programming, and am trying to create a button-type symbol where I can set the label. The problems I'm running into are as follows. If I make the symbol type=Button, I can't add ActionScripts in the frames and/or access any subcomponents? Why is this so? If I make the symbol type=MovieClip, I can add ActionScript and access sub-components, but can't figure out how to make the HandCursor show up on hover?
