View 1 RepliesWhen a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.
I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.
Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?
i have been using AS2.0 for quite a long time. And i started using papervision3D too.I am using tutorial made by Lee Brimelow's cube tutorial. but i want different results. So long i am able to move the cube in one direction and that is my requirement. But in his tutorial he as link to urls. what i want is to expand one face of the cube which is clicked to expand to fit in the screen.(i am also using fullscreen and stage resize).
View 1 RepliesI have a project which, for all intents and purposes, attempts to create an online text editor/word processor. The key thing is that I need all multi line formatting to be retained and sent to the server. ie, if the user enters a bunch of text (all colors/bold/fonts and stuff are working great) which has a carriage return or a line wrap, I need a way of tracking that and inserting some kind of flag to let the server now to break to the next line at that point.this project is a client/server application so just storing the text string and expecting flash to be able to use the same size text box will not work.
I have created a function that detects keypresses and MOSTLY takes care of the carraige return issue (still not as solid as I'd like though). Basically, every time the user presses return, I store the length of the string and, when parsing the data for transfer, I insert newline chars at every index point where one is needed. This mostly works unless the user goes BACK and enters a return (still working on that little issue).But the word wrap part is killing me. I did find several discussions of using either total characters to determine how big the box is and where to break the line, or something along those lines, but here's the main issue with that:everything is dynamic. the user can change almost everything, from text font (so there will be variable font widths) text size (again, variable widths) to textbox size (so I can't go with a fixed pixel size to break the text). I've noticed that it was very easy to make a text box vertically dynamic, but the width seems to want to stay fixed (if set to multi-line) since the user will be changing this width, I'm just stuck.
if it means coding a huge set of functions that compares every possible font (i will be using embedded fonts eventually so they will be limited) with every possible size and then using that data to determine box size, that's fine, I'll do whatever I can to get this working, but there just has to be an easier way
If so, how do you handle line wrapping - so that the lines break at a particular word?

I have a problem with my ItemRenderer in Flex. I'm developping a mobile application and I'm using a list. One of the items is to set a date. But when the date is wrong I want to set a text in my messageField like : The To date must be after the From date.The problem is I don't know (and don't seem to find it anywhere) where you can set the messagefield in multiline.I read on a forum that's possible but no explanation how.Here you can see an example of what I want (the 5the item in the list is using multiline).[code]
View 1 RepliesI'm reading a 2d array from a .txt file, this is what I do:
Code:
[Embed(source = '../lib/lvl1front.txt', mimeType = "application/octet-stream")]
private var frontTxt:Class;
Then a bit further:
Code:
var fgString:String = new frontTxt();
foreGround = stringToArray(fgString);
The stringToArray function is where things go horribly bad:
Code:
private function stringToArray(input:String):Array
{
var output:Array = new Array();

Notice the starting comma on every line except the first? I think it's the newline character somehow interfering, but I've tried everything I can think of, and nothing has helped.
I am sending a dynamic multi-line textField text to a database. Upon receiving it back, it doesn't display it in multi-line format properly. I am also using htmlText, so it stores it all the font / size /etc in the database perfectly.This code shows you the textField attibutes, both the text I create and send to MYSQL, and the text I get back also calls upon these exact attributes
Code:
TF.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
TF.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
TF.useRichTextClipboard = true;[code]......
when I called upon the text from the database. It at least made it multi-line, but it messed it up a bunch also. My text is only 3 lines, but with wordWrap, it made it 8 and made it look off.Anyway, the text / font / color and everything comes in perfectly, except for the multi-line part.
I have two requirements for a flex charting component:
1) The grid lines should always remain fixed to a scaling I define using an array of data. Something like a graph paper sheet.
2) Plot multiple line series data over this grid.
How does one get complete control over the background grid lines? I have tried a combination of annotation elements and setting the linechart background elements. If I get the grid right, I can't plot over it (Probably due to the scale). how would one go about designing a graphpaper like interface for linecharts in flex/actionscript?
Is it possible to use comments in Flash? I don't mean in actionscript using //, but somehow documenting how the app is setup.

I can find absolutely nothing when I search for an answer. I have a conditional comment in my html to only display a flash file when the browser is IE. And it works great, except that the conditional comment is displaying in my browser! [URL] to see the error (it only shows in IE). Could it be because I haven't declared the page as an html4 page? The only way I can get the comments to go away is if I use this syntax: <!--<![if lt IE10]><!-->my code<!--<![endif]--> . When I do this, of course my flash file shows underneath my alternate content on other browsers.
View 1 RepliesI'd like to create a rating and comments system to the video site I'm working on. Basically the user will rate the video (stars or thumbs up) from 1-5, have the new rating process and improve or lower the video rating automatically. For the comments the user will be able to write and send the comment and then either have it posted automatically with the option for the site moderator to erase any offensive comment or have it sent to a database for approval first and then post it by the site moderator. I assume I need a php form and action script code?

With actionscript2, is there anyway to expand make a text field expand upwards if more text was added then the current size could hold, rather than downwards? Data is loaded from XML.
View 2 Repliesshould deliver for my client two swf -files, for a expanding banner. So can thease be files differend pixel size? Or should both be same size as the expanded swf (bigger one), and smaller one with transparent background? Or souhld I i just make smaller and bigger files, and trust that client has coded site so the expandind action is possible?Quote:All banners must be built at the expanded sizeIf this is the only way, is the the expanding swf-file(bigger one) made for maximum content, as the file size of thease to swf-files can be bigger than file-size when using just one swf-file?
View 1 RepliesI have a question regarding flash. I am an intermediate flash user. Basically, I want a flash movie to expand like this homepage video, when the user clicks on the go button: [URL] Is it possible to "expand" the borders of a flash animation in such a way, and if so, how do I set this up in flash? Is it possible to have the drop-down menu displace the content below it on a html site? i.e. a 250-pixel high banner drops from the original flash piece, is it possible to have the rest of the page move down 250-pixels as well?

View 0 RepliesI'm in the process of teaching myself the components of the CS4 Design Premium package using the Adobe Classroom in a Book series. I'm currently going through the Flash CIAB and i've started using the pen tool. The task involves creating a wave like design across the stage. Whilst this in itself is simple, the final instruction is to click on the first anchor point to close the shape. In the illustration, the closed shape seems to automatically extend around the stage, however when I click on the first anchor point, the line automatically connects between the two points in a straight line.
Am I doing something wrong? The next step is to fill this area, but with the straight line effect that I am getting, this becomes impossible. I should point out that the instruction states that the pen tool line should extend off the stage. I have done this, but even then on clicking on the first anchor point the shape is closed incorrectly.
I am using Flex 4 and AS3 and I am trying to make it so that the user can draw a freehand line with the cursor - I have this part done.However, I also need the line to be a dashed line instead of one solid line like it is now. below is my code I am using. I have found some examples on how to do this, but they are all for straight lines, not for a freehand line.

I love looking through other people's codes and see how they style their comments, most people use a mix of * and ////, and of course it all depends on the language, but I have definitely seen some good ways to comment and some bad ways. A coded page can really come together with the right commenting structure and make it really easy to read for someone coming into a project without any knowledge.
View 3 RepliesYou know them flash decompilers - can they read your comments you leave in your code?Also, is there anyway to remove the comments if they can -- and can you somehow remove all whitespace and compact it so the swf runs faster, better, and is a smaller file?

View 1 RepliesI'm having a bit of a hard time putting what I want into words, which is probably why programming it has got me a bit stumped.Basically what I want is a nagavatable guestbook where the names of the people who left comments is shown in a list, and clicking on the various names would display their comment in a dynamic text box. This whole thing started as an extention of the XML Guestbook using PHP tutorial.My idea, and the way I've been trying to go at this, is to have the names show as text (not buttons or a movie clip, if I can avoid it) in a text area with a scroll bar to allow for as many entries as possable. Clicking on a name would load the data within the <comment> tag into a dynamic text fieldHere's more or less what my XML file looks like
