Flash :: Calculate The X & Y Coords - Width And Height Of Specific Piece Of Text Inside A PDF Document

Oct 28, 2010

On my website, I display uploaded PDF files in a flash player for my users to read. I already use various tools to extract the text and produce a serious of high quality images from the file and the system works well. The last piece of the puzzle is to be able to highlight specific parts of the document to help users with accessibility issues.

However I cannot figure out how to calculate where the specific text is positioned on the page? Notes: The documents uploaded to the system are from 3rd parties, so fonts may be embedded. Meaning that I cannot be sure of the width of specific letters. The text to be highlighted may not be unique, the same text may be repeated How can I calculate the coordinates, height and width of a specific piece of text on a PDF, so that I can then draw a box around it?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Calculate Width And Height After Object Rotation

Jul 31, 2009

I am tweeing a bunch of rectangles randomly on stage.

Code:
TweenLite.to(thumbArr[i],1,{
x:Math.random () * (stage.stageWidth - thumbArr[i].width),
y:Math.random () * (stage.stageHeight - thumbArr[i].height),
rotation: Math.random () * (60) - 30});

the problem is that after I added random rotation (between -30 and 30 degrees), the corners of my rectangles are still sticking out of the stage at the end of the tween.

If I trace objects width and height after the rotation I get the new values but this still doesnt help me because I am tweening to that rotation.

Code:
mc.rotation = 20;
trace(mc.width);
trace(mc.height);

ActionScript 2.0 :: 3D Zoom Effect - How To Calculate Width / Height

Oct 25, 2005

I am working on a 3d zoom function. How can I calculate it it best? I have a placeholder_mc:
width: 400
height:400
_x:0
_y:0

In the placeholder_mc I have 10 obj_mc's:
orig width:400, scaled in placeholder_mc: _xscale=20
orig height:400, scaled in placeholder_mc: _yscale=20
the _x and _y are random positions

Now I need a formula that make the placeholder_mc zoom into obj_mc inside and the placeholder_mc must be _xscaled, _yscaled so that the width and height of the clicked _mc are exactly 400x400.

for the _x and _y I use.. onEnterframe=
placeholder_mc._x=placeholder_mc._x+(placeholder_m c.obj_mc._x-placeholder_mc._x)/8;
placeholder_mc._y=placeholder_mc._y+(placeholder_m c.obj_mc._y-placeholder_mc._y)/8;

So this makes the placeholder_mc move to the correct position of the clicked object but how can I scale it now the placeholder_mc so that he moves and scales correct?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Text Into A Fixed Width Multiline Text Field?

May 30, 2010

Is there a way I can stop a single word splitting over two lines when putting dynamic text into a fixed width, multiline text field?I have a simple method of checking if there are more lines than words and then running a while loop to reduce the font size until there are the same amount or less lines than words. But this doesnt always work, if say the final word of three is quite short and the second word splits over two lines then I still have 3 words and 3 lines.

Flex :: Fixed Y-axis Width In Columnchart

Sep 22, 2010

I'm using a flex columnchart to display data, that changes at runtime. It works perfectly, except the fact, that the y-axis with is automatically resized when the values goes under 1.For example first the values of the charts are between 0 and 10. The y-axis now has labels like 0,1,2,3,4...10. If the values are going under 1 the labels are updated to 0.0, 0.1, 0.2...1.0. And because of the width of the labels, the group with the charts is resized.It looks like the chart is "jumping".So, I need a way, to set a fixed width of the y-axis of the chart.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Referencing Stage.width/height References Mc.width/height?

Jul 29, 2010

I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.

My code is:
Code:
my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2;
my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;

But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...

I have tried the following and had no luck:

stage.stage.stageWidth
root.stage.stageWidth
parent.stage.stageWidth
MovieClip(root).stage.stageWidth

But my dropdown has many parent UI layout component, and also I have many dropdowns, it is hard to calculate one by one.

Flex :: Unable To Set Width/height On FlexSprite?

May 3, 2011

I'm trying to set width/height of a FlexSprite object in ActionScript but it doesn't seem to work at all. I'm still a rookie when it comes to ActionScript and I don't understand why I can't set the dimensions of that object. I know I could use a UIComponent but I need something more lightweight since I'm going to add hundreds of them.

public class MyComp extends UIComponent
{
public function MyComp()
{

I plan to add other objects inside the FlexSprite and I need to set their dimensions explicitly as well so I really need to figure out how to do that.
