I have this HBox inside a TitleWindow. I'm not sure why the text are blurred.
I have a dynamic textbox, left justified, characters embedded, set on whole pixel x and y, 266 wide and 310 high. I then made that into a movieclip with registration at the center. I then use code to flip it on the Y axis. The text is clear before the first flip when you test the movie. Flipped 180 on the Y axis so that it is backwards it is fuzzy. Flip it 180 again so it is back in its starting position it is still fuzzy. I have tried doing it without code, just flip by entering a value in the transform panel for the Y axis, it still goes fuzzy.
I need the text on the backside of my panel to be clear. go here to see the full panel in action [URL] click through to "work" on the menu. I am attaching a very simple FLA with a flipping textbox mc and a plain textbox on stage to show how the text should look
I have a Flash movie that I've created but when I export the movie the text appears very fuzzy. I have the alias text set and also I set it at the highest quality jpeg on export.
View 8 RepliesI tried a search, but only seemed to find this problem with text... I've got two swf's that appear un-sharp and fuzzy but when i open the main files in Flash, they look sharp and fine, with no reason to assume that they would turn out all blurry...anybody encountered this before?
View 1 RepliesNeedless to say, I have a case of fuzzy text. I have attempted to self-medicate by embedding the font, which now shows itself as one of my library items. I have made sure to use whole numbers for X and Y positions as well as the text fields width and height.
View 1 RepliesI managed to show the output of a shell command in TextArea of flex by calling following php file via HTTPService and then using the dataprovider attribute of TextArea to show the returned output.
<?php
$output = shell_exec('ls -l');
return $output
?>
Now i have a C file which prints some lines (by using printf command of C) when i run it in shell using
./myCfile
But following php code seems to not return anything as my TextArea remains empty
<?php
$output = shell_exec('./myCfile');
return $output
?>
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"

I'm playing around with a messaging type of application. Does anyone know how, or of any tutorials on to "appending" html text to text areas in flex and flex mobile projects? And specifically how I could take that and basically "append" a sprite inline to the text when i need to? Something simple like:Username: some text right here!So, Anyone have any experience "appending" sprites or simple text formatting?how to solve these issues!EDIT:Based on an answer below it was sugguested that it's as simple as...textAreaInstance.htmlText += "<b>Username:</b> some text right here!";But its not. you can't do .htmltext with a text area. you can on a text field, so i tried
var TF:TextField = new TextField();
TF.width = 200;
TF.height = 200;

I need to put together an editable text area that has a custom caret (cursor) which is different from the default blinking vertical line. Is the caret a "skinnable" property of text input? note that I am not asking about the mouse pointer cursor which can be set using the CursorManager.
View 1 RepliesThe title & copyright text of my animation don't show up in the swf unless I break up the words to letters then to shapes. (This also occurs for the feedback of one of my games.) It's a 2.5 minute animation which puts my computer to the limits so that may be the problem. Obviously I'd rather not convert this text to shapes for size & flexibility reasons.
View 7 RepliesI just made these quick flash banners for a client but he's saying that the text isn't showing up for him.I have the banners hosted here - http:[url]...........And any idea why it wouldn't be showing up for him? I'm assuming he's running on an outdated version of Flash but I know if that's the case he's going to worry about other people being on the same outdated version he's on and they won't be able to see the text.
View 2 RepliesI have one api to call and it is an XML file. I got the values from XML and stored in an Array. I need to show the result in a text box that is already created in the stage. But it is not displaying there. I am calling the API from my document class. From there, I created a class for load XML and store the values to an array. from there, I call anoter class to show the result in the stage. that class is linked with the movieclip created. I can trace all the vlues including the value assigned to the text box. but it is not showing to the stage.
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to get a Flash-based form working - and it's 90% there. I even figured out a refresh issue with a list, and that worked perfectly. Fast foward to the final frame. I'm ready to collect all the data from the form and send it when the user clicks "Done". At current, this frame has no real defined code. The only thing on it is the standard "stop();" to prevent the movieclip from going back to the first frame.The only thing that will be displayed on the final frame is a picture and some text. This is...where everything falls apart. I created the text field, named it properly, then wrote "myField.text = "blahblah";" in the main frame. I then ran a movie test. Everything works great ... until the last frame. No text. Tried to embed.. that didn't help.. tried using the textfield variable... nothing there either. For some inexplicable reason, the final frame in my movie refuses to display anything at all except what's on the stage.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get into flash and one of my movies doesn't display all the characters I tell it to display in a dynamic text box. example:
Actionscript Code: if (day() == Saturday){tomorrow.text = "Sunday";}
and what comes out is: Suday
I'm using ActionScript 2 and I did embed the font in the library
I have a script that draws a dot on a map and then removes an older text field popup if there and populates a new text field with some HTML text. below is the script. The individual parts work, but all I can get it to do is clear the pop up that was there.[code]
View 1 RepliesI can't figure out why my font (type) hasn't been showing up in my Test Movie. I tried it first along with my first scene, and it didn't work. I put the type in a second scene (now 74, don't ask) within the same file, and it still doesn't show up. I'm using a mask to make the type appear and I know from tutorials, I have it going in the correct position to reveal the type. It's clearly not showing up. Even in Test Scene, it's not showing up. I've exhausted all my experience (which isn't saying much) to try

View 3 Repliesa 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.
1.I am getting the content from XML and showing to the text box. If the content is more than the text field size then its hide the content. Please tell me how I adjust the height of the text box according to the XML content.
2.I have some XML content with HTML links and loading this to another text box. I need to highlight the corresponding content(link) when mouse over.

Dynamic Text in Flash ActionScript 2.0 not showing when published
When published all else shows up except the dynamic text. The properties have been set on "Bitmap Text (no anti-alias)" and fonts not seemingly embedded..
I'm working on making a news scrollpane thingamagig. I have a movieclip called "entry" with textfileds (basically it's just a header bar and a bottom border bar with two textfields). These are dynamically attached based on the number of xml nodes into a holder clip and I have that holder clip masked and for some reason the entry movieclips will show, but the actual text doesn't. when I get rid of the mask then the text shows.

I have a main SWF that loads a child SWF that includes a form and a dynamic text box for displaying errors. However, when people type into the form, the text is not visible. However, if you type something, then do select all and copy it copies text. It's there, just not visible.

I want to get the � mark showing up in the text on the arrow...
There seem to be a lot of people with my problem but all sorts of different things fixed their issue. None of that has worked for me:
Embedding the font
rendering text as html
making the font _sans
changing AA method
im sure I've tried some other random stuff as well..
Basically I've created an order form over multiple pages for products.. everything works.. on the last page which i have named overview I have a script on the top layer which basically fills out 3 dynamic text fields with the products they have ordered.
The script works.. it loads the text into the textfields they are just not visible.
I can even select the text when I enable "Make text selectable".
