Flex :: Multiple Text Areas With Different Rotation Values Causes Borders To Be Very Wrong?
Nov 5, 2009
If you have two textareas, one has a rotation value besides 0 and the other has no rotation value or a value of 0 and you 'tab' focus from the one w/rotation to the one w/out. The border around the textArea w/out rotation will be rotated. If you set the rotation value of the non-rotated text field to a non-zero number, even 0.01, it fixes the problem, this causes tons of other problems in text rendering though so its not a solution.
I found setting the focusThickness style to 0 removes the border, which is a good solution but not a great one, anybody got a better one? Here is some sample code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:TextArea id="source" width="100%" fontWeight="bold" fontSize="20" height="50" rotation="5" />
<mx:TextArea id="dest" width="100%" height="50" />
</mx:VBox>

I have created a flex chart with multiple Y axis. I want that it shows origin for one of the data series. It shows the line, but on the wrong plase.
Maybe it is because I didn't tell to GridLines which axis use as a source? But, I am not sure if it is possible to do...
how to show horizontal origin on a chart with multiple axis.
Here is an examle which reproduses my problem.

Flash receives the XML, but the values are wrong. How do I fix this? Problem I can see the XML loaded with no errors, but my output is way off. It's as though it's not receiving any values. Numbers in the output window and animation move rapidly. The Flash file runs as if it's variables where set to zero. I changed the order of my code, but that didn't help with this. how I can correct this.
[Code]...
your problem is that you're calling myLoader.load() and adding an event listener to wait for the xml to finish loading, but you're then immediately setting var delay:uint = 0; and var repeat:uint = 0; and starting the timer. you can see this in your results by the 1, XML, 2, 3, 4 output. the load call is asynchronous so it returns immediately. you need to wait until your processXML function is called before proceeding to the next step.

My problems keep piling up. I was trying to figure out where child objects X and Y positions are on stage and not locally. Therefore i use the "localToGlobal" function and I'm pretty sure i use it correctly? The thing is that some Y values are true but the X are just completely spaced out. I use a function to find all child objects on stage and this works great.
Code:
private function findGameElements():void
{
// Array that will store all elements on screen and their values
fixedElements = new Array();

What I have is two buttons that when clicked they add an input text field and a third button that puts a text field and gives you the total value of the two input fields after the user inputs some numbers, the problem is that the buttons adding the input fields can be clicked multiple times and of course adding a new input field each time they are clicked and as you can imagine when I try to add the values I only get the result of the last two fields added.
How can I tweak my code so it adds-up the total value of all input fields on the stage?
I didnt test my code it may have some errors, I just put it together to show the concept.
ActionScript Code:
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addField);
button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addField2);
button3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addTotal);

I have a series of buttons on the screen and a single background. I need a small masked area around each button to zoom in slightly when the user rollsover the button.Im currently using a mask over a copy of the background and then changing the reg point of the copy.I then tween the scale up and down, but if I flick to another button quickly it doesnt update the reg and the image behind the mask for that button is incorrect.I thought there may be a way to capture what was inside the mask and then to convert it to a bitmap, and then scale up the captured bitmap.

someThin.text = String(value1) I'm using the above code to pass an integer to a dynamic textBox.The problem is I'd like to post a second variable (value2) in the same textBox as well as a '/' between them. I could use multiple textboxes but that just seems sooooo inefficient.
I've tried the following permutations and none have worked.
someThin.text = String(value1 ' ' value2) ;
someThin.text = String(value1) '/' (value2);
someThin.text = String(value1) '/' String(value2);

I'm having issues with my action script in that only one of the mouseover / mouseout event works consistently which is the Mouse3Over functions. Mouse1Over function works fine on initial startup but stops working once I mouse over the 2 other images. For each gotoAndPlay, I've setup the timeline to go to that frame and play for 5 frames to show the image on the mouse over, and then on the mouse out is to go to that specific frame where i've setup to make the image disappear. After the 5 frames, on the 6th frame I added actionscript to that layer to stop();
Below is my actionscript code:
Mouse1Over.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, fl_MouseOverHandler_3);
function fl_MouseOverHandler_3(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(5);
[Code] .....
My whole goal is to sort of do a zoomed in image of that part of the picture like you see on some websites when you mouse over a designated section of the image the close up image shows up.

I can't see a way to get rid of certain borders within a DataGrid. I'd like to eliminate a side border on 2 of my columns so that they appear to look like a single column.I'm trying to implement a "clear value" button on each of my DataGrid rows. I was able to have a button show on a custom ItemRenderer from a separate ActionScript file, but I was unsure how to have the button click event propagate to the mxml file where the DataGrid is located. It would be much easier for me to have an extra unresizable column with a 'clear' button.
So, to reiterate: Is there any way to change the border style or eliminate certain borders of a DataGridColumn?

Noob question, I hope. I need to create scrolling text areas with rich text format content. I know I can use the textArea component and set the htmlText property but converting all of my RTF to HTML is gonna be a major pain in the @$$. I keep getting into trouble thinking what's mindlessly easy in Director/Lingo is gonna be reasonably simple in Flash/AS3, I hoping this is just my inexperience with Flash getting in the way. Is there an easier way? I thought of embedding a PDF document but apparently that's not an option in Flash either (note: I know how to link a PDF doc, I need this text to display and scroll within the application, not just pop a new window on top).

How can i update multiple cells of the same row changing the value of a single cell of the same row ??
Example: id, height, weight, fat percentage, corporal mass. When i change one of the values in a row (except id of course) the corporal mass cell value must change using a formula like: (height/weight2)*fat percentage*100. Is this posible with Datagrid or AdvancedDatagrid in Flex ??
I tried using custom item renders and inserting actionscript code inside the datagrid with no good result.

I'm currently trying to work out a method to highlight specific areas of text within a dynamic text field at runtime. The method I've been toying with so far has been the use of CSS highlighting, but have not seemed to have any luck thusfar. What I'm attempting to do is to illustrate, to students, sections within a passage of text pertaining to correct methods of source referencing (source in terms of bibilographical references), and so am essentially trying to change the background colour of sections of text specified at runtime.Here's some code I've thrown together to test the CSS theory:

var highlightstyle = 'span.highlight { background-color:yellow }';var txt = '<p><span class="highlight">highlighted text</span> no highlighted text<span class="highl

I got an object (called tempEnemy) which is flying around and shooting. The problem is that I can't keep the value tempEnemy.rotateTo positive, i.e. It shall be between 0 and 359 degrees. Currently rotateTo ranges from:
rotateTo < 0 (bug) && rotateTo > 0 && rotateTo > 359 (bug).
tempEnemy.dX = tempEnemy.destX - tempEnemy.x;
tempEnemy.dY = tempEnemy.destY - tempEnemy.y;
//I added 180 because my tempEnemy object was looking and shooting to the wrong direction
tempEnemy.rotateTo = (toDegrees(getRadians(tempEnemy.dX, tempEnemy.dY))) + 180;
if (tempEnemy.rotateTo > tempEnemy.frame + 180) tempEnemy.rotateTo -= 360;
if (tempEnemy.rotateTo < tempEnemy.frame - 180) tempEnemy.rotateTo += 360;
tempEnemy.incFrame = int((tempEnemy.rotateTo - tempEnemy.frame) / tempEnemy.rotateSpeed);

Im trying to make a game, but want to use specific text input to get points, this is probably simple but it doesnt seem to work for me. Essentially I have a text input area on the screen and if the user enters the right value and then clicks continue they get points. I have a text input area named numgame and have attached this code to the continue button:
on (release) {
if (numgame = "343"){
_root.score = _root.score + 100;
gotoAndPlay(536);
}
}
Currently it seems like the if statement isnt even doing anything, the score is added once continue is pressed no matter what is entered. Is there a better/ correct way of doing this.

I'm creating a Flash game...blackjack, actually. It uses a back-end made from Java.Anyway, there's a basic chat in the game, where new messages are added to the bottom...pretty much your standard chat window.This is how I do it now:txtArea.verticalScrollPosition = txtArea.maxVerticalScrollPosition;However, that does not always work. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't (oddly enough). I'm looking for a permanent solution. txtArea is the component TextArea (d'uh), and I'm using ActionScript 2.0.

I've been looking for a tutorial that loads different variables in a text file to different textfield/textbox in flash using AS3. So my text file would look like this:
myVariable1=<p class='header'>Headline1</p><br>Subtext content 1
myVariable2=<p class='header'>Headline2</p><br>Subtext content 2
myVariable3=<p class='header'>Headline2</p><br>Subtext content 3
And "myVariable1" would load in textbox "myText_txt_1" in flash and "myVariable2" would load in textbox "myText_txt_2" and so on...
I think this is possible in AS2 but is this even possible in AS3?

In my AS3 code all the elements on the page are dynamically positioned depending on the current width and height of the SWF - providing it's not under a certain value, then the items are back in their original position.
When debugging in the Flash player the size all reports correctly however when run from a web browser it does not - initially.
This is my HTML & PHP code for the entire page:
HTML Code:
<?php
function hashId($fn) {
$hash=md5_file($fn);
[Code].....
But I cannot get the size to report correctly without, say, clicking a button.
It seems to me like I need to force flash to re-draw the screen, but I had no luck trying to do that.
