Flex :: Pasting A Large Amount Of Text In A TextArea Leads To A Script Execution Timeout
Dec 23, 2010
(Flex 3) I have a TextArea component which needs to hold the user's clipboard content. The TextArea does the job relatively well for most cases but when pasting a large amount of data, I can't seem to get the content in the component at all due to the script execution timeout.
I've done a fair deal on investigation to try and hopefully find how I could make this work. I found that the TextArea is using a IUITextField (which is in my case an instance of TextField at runtime) do handle the job of obtaining the pasting data and then throws an event when it is done.
I have found no way to take a look at the source of TextField as it is a class in the playerglobal.swc library.
Is there a way for me to maybe see the source of that class or is there something I'm missing in my approach to figure out a way to make this work?

I've a problem, I'm using an AdvancedDataGrid. It loads about 3000 records with about 20 columns. I constantly get Flex execution timeout because the grid executes a lot inside LayoutManager. How can I make it asyncronousely or faster at all?

I have this banner that needs to have a several rows worth of paragraph text animate horizontally through it. Ideally, the text should also be possible to update from outside of flash. As for the scrolling text, working with that much text as one long row of letters doesn't seem feasible, so I'm wondering is there a standard way in Flash CS5 of working with large amounts of animated text? Not the user editable kind like text fields and such, but presentational text.
Obviously it's not efficient to have one long string of text that extends several screens beyond the display, as is the case now. Editing just one letter can take several seconds of scrolling as the string is currently over 3000 px wide, and it's not even all the text that's going to be in the final animation. It'd be great if it was possible to type that text through some web based cms, and have it automatically transferred to the Flash banner,

how to display a large amount of text inside of Flash CS4. I have a 46 page pdf I would like to display but I would really like to keep it internal to Flash...I don't want to link it out to a separate html page if I don't have to (i.e. through a URLRequest). I would like to have one self-contained swf file.

So I have extended my textfield so I can add a some text, a style, an x and y position.
var clientText:MyTextField = new MyTextField("Client:", "style1", 75, 60);
addChild(clientText);
The problem is the text is starting to get a bit long and I need a way to insert large amount of text neatly. I don't really want to use xml I would prefer to just have it in the ide like in the attached image. However formatting it in this way gives me the error

I have been getting the following error occasionally when running my flash file.Error #1502: A script has executed for longer than the default timeout period of 15 seconds.at Sr_fla::CenterTemperature_10/frame2()After the error occurs I can dismiss it and the error will not reoccur unless the flash file is closed and reopened - even though I am running the same code over and over.I have traced out all of my loops and feel confident there is not and infinite loop.I read a note on the forums that mentioned this error can occur when a large calculation takes place.I am doing some semi-complex calculations. Maybe that is the cause. Below I have posted some snippets of code from my work. Essentially I have a script which tests a variable (CenterTemperature) to make sure it is within certain bounds.Then a looping movieclip reads the variable and scales another movieclip accordingly.[code]

main problem lies within the 15 second timeout.trying to create a 10,000 x 10,000 2d array with just 0's are placeholders for data.i tried just going with a 2d loop of 0-9999. tried going with a 4d loop like this 0-999+(0-9*1000)
k and kk = 0-9
n and nn = 0-999
array_ar[n+(k*1000)][nn+(kk*1000)]=0;
both time out. i even tried seperating the 4d variety into 2 function passing it back and forth. is there a way to turn off the timeout? or a way to pause the looping every so often. I was thinking about creating the first function that does a 2d loop of 0-999 then at the end of it returns a value to another function that passes the 0-9*1000 part back to the first one? maybe this would create a pause reseting the timeout. but none of that would be needed if the timeout could be disabled.

I have a large amount of POIs at the same spot (e.g. the same district). If I zoom out the map I want to group these nearby POIs to one big Spot so that the map doesn't get filled up with pois. For example: [URL]. But instead of decluttering them I want to group them into 1 bigger spot. Is there a way to do this?

I'm making a game where missiles are created using the duplicateMovieClip thing and I've used it a lot before, but i never noticed that there is a limit to the number of layers, around 256, I think. The problem is that i have a bunch of sprites in my games and each of them move(i.e. fire,smoke,shrapnel from rockets,etc) so is there a way to group a large amount of movie clips so that they're on one layer, without putting them into another movieclip? If u want look at a part of my game, well two parts.

I have 100 names. I want to have it animated like the genname.fla I attached.And it should show these names when I mouseover it, in completely random order.Like the namebanner.fla I attached.I don't want the flash swf to get too large in filesize or the animation playing choppy.
How do I implement all these names (with animation) with coding in AS2 instead of timeline and labels?Without using external files xml, swf, txt.My solution I chosen is to have Labels (label1, label2..) in my timeline and I have now 30 labels, 30 movieclips+30MC:s in every with the name animation. It is so hard work to copy label, motion, convert new movieclip and do this for 100 names. Maybe I need 200 names.. This is impossible to sort out.
Every name must have the same:
- animation: movement, speed, blurfilter
- font
I need to be able to change:
- the name (firstname, lastname)
- animation (blurfilter, where it should start animate and stop, how fast..)
And I need to be able to change the font so It changes in every name so I don't need to go into every movieclip and change.
I have following code:
Code:
//random
function fncShuffle()
{ return Math.floor(Math.random()*5)-1; }
//function for every label on the timeline
[code]....

I have x amount of classes in a package eg. "com.trevorboyle.lotsofclasses" and I keep adding more (These classes will probably all be static and will probably all extend the same class).I wish to create a drop-down list of all these classes, preferably without having to manually create an array myself.
Once a class is selected from the list, I'll be able to use getDefinitionByName to return it, because I will know it's name at this point.The question is, as I believe there is no support in AS3 to list all the classes in a specific package, is there a design pattern that handles this?

I'm using flash sockets to build an embedded chat application. everything works great. I want to allow all the sites who embedded this application to connect to my server, except for some sites.
My problem is that the number of sites that I don't want to connect to my server is a very large one( 4-5k). Currently from what I seen all you can do is tell in your policy file the domains that you allow/not allow.
What I'm looking for is a way for flash player to send me the domain where the flash is embedded and I could return an accept/decline response. I know I can send info about the site where the flash is embedded using actionscript, but this can be very easy simulated.

I have a full flash site which uses swfobject to embed it 100% height and width. I'm using swffit to force a browser scroll bar for pages with a large amount of content. This is all fine and works perfectly. I also have the content in HTML format, as alternative content and this also works apart from in order to get the flash swfobject to work I need to add the overflow = hidden in the CSS, like:
html{
height: 100%;
overflow:hidden;
}
#content{
height: 100%;

A little much put in the title, but my question is just that. I have the following AS3 code for my textarea...
addChild(Texta1);
Texta1.alpha = 0;
Texta1.blendMode = BlendMode.LAYER;
[Code].....
Unfortunately, when I start placing text in this text area. Either through code or user input, the text will be placed on a new line after about 80-100 pixels. Yet I want it to start a new line after 320 pixels (it's length).

(Close)... <== this close link will be clicked and the rest of the page will be hidden again.
Can this be done in Flex? Here is a link example done in javascript [URL].

The problem I am facing is , whenever I add new line or others it replaces the previous text, I want the previous text in text area to stay there.

if you feed the textarea text attribute with an tag that has a valid src url, then for some reason flex will try to render everything as html.Eg, try this:<mx:TextArea id="textArea" width="100%" height="90%" text="<img src='http://url-to-a-valid-img"/> and instead of it rendering it as raw text it will render it as an html.

I am attempting to insert text from a database into a custom TextArea component, using the following:
var front:CaptionTextArea = myFlashcardFrontsides[adjIndex] as CaptionTextArea;
var back:CaptionTextArea = myFlashcardBacksides[adjIndex] as CaptionTextArea;
var passage:CaptionTextInput = myVersePassages[adjIndex] as CaptionTextInput;
front.text = passage.text;
back.text = str;
This works 100% of the time for smaller strings. However, if I insert long strings of text, the application will hang consistently. The maxchars for the textarea is set to 1200, and the text that is inserted into the text area is always smaller than the character limit:
backside.maxChars = 1200;
