I have a setup a PageHolder class (based on MovieCLip) that displays a doted area with a (page) number in the middle.
Now attempting to populate my LayoutPane, I create new instances of of PageHolder whose constructor is tasked to set the text value of its only Texfield to the value specified in the new PageHolder parameter.
The problem here is that only the character present in the Library Object will display at run time.
For example, I have setup my PageHolder object with a text field containing the number "0". Now at run time, every instance of PageHolder is blank except fro the one that I passed a "0" as part of the init parameter (10,20,30,...) and on those pages, only the "0" is showing. If I change the original object to display a "1" instead, then every "1" of the page number that contains a "1" show ups.
Can somebody shed some light on this?
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class LayoutPage extends MovieClip

I have a MovieClip that has a Dynamic TextField: let's call the instance of the field txtName. I want to set the text field on the fly for txtName, so I add a little ActionScript (3!) that does it nice and easily: txtName.text = "Foo";reat. Now why isn't it working when I try the same thing from a parent MovieClip which contains the MovieClip that has the dynamic text? Example:Child MovieClip with TextField ActionScript 3 in Frame #1:
//------
function SetText(str:String):void {
txtName.text = str;

i have a movieclip containing a dynamic text-field in it. When movieclip is stretched using transform manager, the text stretches. i am developing a component. Moreover,Event.Resize can not be used as Event.Resize is the Stage event. it does not work for movie-clips and sprite.Putting it in Event. Enter Frame works but that hangs the whole CMS when this technique is used.

I have an empty movie clip(say A) on a layer and then I have masked it with a display object(say a rectangle). Now I have an movie clip(say B) containing a input text field and I am adding this movie clip(B) dynamically in movie Clip(A).
When I compile it, the input text field is taking input for sure, cz I have applied some traces on change event of that field. But the characters inside the field are not showing up.

Is there a way to add text programmatically in as3 to a Sprite or a MovieClip without using the class TextField
TextField inherits from InteractiveObject which is kind of heavy for what I want to do: just display text (i.e. I don't want to interact with the text).
Note: I'm aware that there is a property selectable to make the textfield not selectable. This is not the point.

In my library I have a movieclip that is linked to my AS3 custom class TweenButton. On the movieclip there is a textfield. I would like to be able to set the .text property of the textfield through TweenButton's constructor, which must be so simple, but I haven't been able to make it work. Here's the code and source files:

I have an odd predicament that I'm trying to wrap my head around. I have a textField, that is populated by data from an xml file. It contains simple line html line break tags, and when I use the htmlText option, it doesn't seem to recognize those tags, even though they don't show up when I view it online. Here is my code:
Code:
//FLASHVARS CODE
var varName:String;
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
for (varName in paramObj) {

I can't figure out how to make it render properly. If I choose a dynamic text field already on the stage it works fine, but then the scrollbar doesn't work. I read that a TextField automatically uses a scrollbar when it gets too long. Can anyone suggest a possible work around for this? I feel the answer is staring me in the face and I just can't see it.

I have a project where I need to show a TextField with a monetary ammount
var tf:TextField = new TextField()
tf.htmlText = "<font size="30">1</font>99";
This will show the 99 cents as subscript. How do I show this as superscript?
It's important that I display this in the same textfield so I don't have to worry about 2,3, or 4 digit dollar values or values with no cents. The alignment will be a lot of work. I googled the GG Superscript fonts but because this is dealing with localization, I need to use device fonts rather thatn embedded. Also size is priority so embedding fonts is something that is not really an option.

I tried to search but 99% of the posts I saw were referring to manually created dynamic text boxes instead of.. algorythmically generated text for lack of better phrasing.
I'm trying to make an AS3 .swf that would display a small array of letters that have been created with TextField's, and not with dynamic text's being dragged onto the stage since there's going to be more than 100 of them. I've tried setting the textfield's .embedded to true, changing the fonts, making sure the text and backgrounds are different colors.. nothing.
In my .fla I have nothing for the document class under properties. In frame 1 there is one keyframe with three lines of code below and I've tried it with stop() and without. The class file is in the same folder and is MyArray.as This should be really easy but it's driving me insane.
MyArray.fla :
Code:
//stop();
import MyArray;
var test:MyArray = new MyArray();

a few months ago we bought a flash ready template that I customized with our information. I decided to update the website information and wrote new text. Now when I do the publish preview the upated text is not showing up. I have not change the font, color just the size because in the original it looked too small. when looking at the properties is shown as the default of font (the one the template came with) static text.
What is causing the updated text not to show up? I am not really experienced with flash, i am trying to figure out also how to see the code of the pages but i don't know how to do that.

On the website I'm currently working on:I'm running into a problem with my flash pages. If you click on About Us from the menu, on every computer but mine the About Us header at the end of the animation shows up as regular text and not the style I used.Here is a screen shot of what it is suppose to look like:on why this would happen? I thought it may be because the font wasn't installed throughout, but it's the same font as "embrace hope' which comes up fine.

I'm trying to display HTML text in a text field on the stage, but the text formatting doesn't show. I am embedding all font variations in the library (arial bold and arial regular) and I even have dynamic text fields on the stage that embed arial bold and arial regular.
Still, this code does not display bold text:
myField.htmlText = "Regular and <b>bold</b>";

I am using Flex 4 and running into some problems displaying a simple alert box. The alert box shows up, but the text seems to be the same color as the background. I know the text is there because if I mouse over in the alert box window to roughly where the text would be, I can see the cursor change. And when I double click and copy-paste into notepad, I can see the message. But the message, the button text, the message box title don't show up.The relevant code in my project is as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" layout="absolute"
