I have a circle component in my application , divided into 4 sectors. My circle component is such that I have an outer circle and an inner circle, with a small gap between the two circles. Now I want to place the curved text in this gap for the four sectors, curving along with the circle.. How do I achieve this?This is my circle component:
package components
{
import mx.core.UIComponent; the circle.
I'm writing in Flex a simple app that allows product personalization, right now I'm working on adding engraving text. Most products are round so I want the text the be slightly curved when placed on the product to give it more realism.
I've looked into text curving/arching in Flex but the solutions I've found seem to be overkill for my requests. Does anyone know how I can slightly curve text in Flex without too much hassle?[URL]..
What is the easiest way to create curved text (i.e. warp the text like WordArt)? I have read that it is possible to do it directly in Flash, but with no explanation how to do so. Thus, I'm not even sure if that's true.

View 4 RepliesI mean i need to make a text to follow a curved line, something similar we have in photoshop. How do i make that here? I need to write a 3 words sentence which will be placed above and below a circle. Circle contains a logo, but i need to write the text, but it needs to be rounded as well. I don't want to break apart and rotate EVERY letter in those 3 words.

View 4 RepliesI need to create curved Arabic text which can be change at runtime by input from Text Field. Currently I am using Text2Curve AS3 component. It works fine with Latin symbols, but I have several problems with it when it come to Arabic text: First problem is that Arabic letters comes in four different forms: end, middle, beginning and isolated. But Text2Curve AS3 component shows them the same.Second problem is that Arabic text shouldn't have any gaps between letters. But in component you can only set one letter spacing for all symbols. So some of the symbols overlap, while other have gaps between them.Third problem is that Arabic text is written from right to left, but Text2Curve AS3 component only supports left to right. (I solved it partially by reversing input string)If someone have had similar problem, or know better component/library (paid or free), or can event create one please let me know. Also I am working with Adobe Flash Professional CS 5.5 and I don't speak Arabic. So it is quite hard for me to check if Arabic text is good or not.

View 9 RepliesI'm trying to write some text to a text file. Actually, i retrieved the text from the file simply without using any PHP, so i thought there might be a way to write back to it without PHP too. Is there?? i couldn't find any through flash help files though.. Anyways, so i started trying to use PHP for it. I wrote some code so that it took some text from a dynamic text box on stage, and would write it into a text file in a folder inside the one which contains the swf and the php file.

View 2 RepliesSo here is what i'm working with. I built a quiz for teachers to use so all they would have to do is edit a text file and then flash would read the file and generate the quiz based off it. The problem i have is that a few of the teachers are having problems editing the text file in the correct way. I wrote this flash movie to save the variables to a text file. I read somewhere that fscommand - save dosent work anymore. Is there some other way to have it write a text file to the local machine? The swf would be saved on their machines.

View 2 RepliesI am creating a simple program which writes a string to a spreadsheet when it is copied to the system clipboard. Everything works great, except that if the text copied has multiple paragraphs and therefore has returns in it, when written to the file, they get interpretted as going to the next row of the spreadsheet. The, instead of writing all the text to one cell, the paragraphs get split up into multiple cells on multiple rows. How does one format the string so that paragraphs are still sepearated by a space, but it will write all of the text in one cell?
edit: Here's my code if it matters
Code:
stop()
Clipboard.generalClipboard.clear()
var file:File=File.desktopDirectory.resolvePath("communication of uncertainty data.ods");

I'm trying to work out how to get an input text box, on the click of a btn, to send any text in it to a html page. I can do this in flash by having an input write to a dynamic text box but I'm not having much luck working out how to do this with a html page.

Here is what I am trying to accomplish I am able to retrieve these variables from the txt file that is stored with the SWF file and display them, I am unable to allow the user to change a line "item" and then have them save it amending the TXT file.
So the goal is to have this list on multiple office computers so that you can go in add an item to the list it then updated the TXT file so the next user can open up the flash file see the list and even add or remove an item.
The TXT file is going to be stored on a private drop box folder that is available on all computers concerned. ( If it's going to be easier than putting it server side )

I need to create a text field where the user can only write numbers from 3.0 up to 12.0 with any decimal. With any number he imputs i need another text field to store the number lowered to its nearest .5 number.
for example
input 3.1 result 3.0
input 3.4 result 3.0
input 3.6 result 3.5
input 4.6 result 4.5
By the way. im using Flash CS3
it is possible using Action Script 3.0 to allow a user to drop in videos / manipulate a text file to add or change videos/ text that feed to a media player, without doing it directly through the flash studio actions page. Ideally I would like to have a folder with the swf/fla file, all the video files, and perhaps a text file that alowed the user to manipulate the text of the video i.e. title/description Would it be easier to instead give that user a youtube like solution where they simply had the ability to upload/describe videos, through the webserver, rather than do it through a pc?
