Feb 28, 2012
I have created a style in which i am defining a font family.When i apply this style to label it reflects the font were as there is no change when it is applied to a spark button.I Tried various way to Apply font style but it doesn't work.Other properties work fine except font family. Even i tried creating skin class and set the font family style of label in it. While previewing the skin i can see the changes but when i apply it to buttonApproach 1
I'm using Flex 4. I'm trying to apply a embedded font in all Alert components of the application, to get the same style that all the app, of course. I code in my CSS file:
[Code]...
The font-family worked to all componentes, but not to the Alert component. In alert the text message and title got unvisible. If I change to other font-family it works correctly, just the embedded font doesn't work on Alert component. Anyone got this problem? Obs: The embedded font worked in all the app, just the Alert no.
I want to change the background color of selected tab in spark TabBar control(Flex4). Till Flex3 we could have use the following code, bt it is not working in FLEX 4.
<fx:Script> <![CDATA[ protected function tabbedPanel_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
I'm feeling overgoogled atm, but still can't find any solution. I have font "Futura" with "Condensed Medium" style, actually 4 styles - "Medium, Italic, Condensed Medium, Condensed ExtraBold". However, when I embed it at runtime, it embeds just "Medium" style of font.
Embedding with code: PHP Code: [Embed(systemFont="Futura", fontName="PreloaderFont", fontStyle="Condensed Medium", mi
In my Flash Builder (Flex) 4.6 app, I just noticed for some reason all my "s:Window" components will not allow me to click and select anything in design mode in flash builder!
My other non-window type components are fine - I can open a TitleWindow or Group for example and click on the various fields and labels no problem.
In my Window components, I can select an item in the 'outline' window, but not using the mouse and actually clicking on the component in the visual design window. When I click in there, it looks like it's selecting the actual 'window' box. Almost like it needs to be 'sent to back' or something.
Anyone missed the old simple method for skinning a simple button?
CODE:
The problem im having is that, this method of creating a simple button with skin is being phased out : Infact it is no longer supported in flex 4.5 mobile projects.
So the question: Is there a simple way to perform this, with spark buttons (which is suppose to be the new way to go). As simple as possible.
Basically i only need a button with 2 images : down/over & up. And i want to keep the code as simple as possible : The new skinning methods, seems to really adds way too much lines for something that used to be as simple as the example above.
I have installed the entire Helvetica Neue LT font family on my PC running Windows XP. There are 51 different variants in this family. While I have had issues before with Flash not recognizing that the fonts I have are the same as those in a .fla file created elsewhere, I used to be able to just map the fonts to the same font (which might have a slightlydifferent name) in the font substitution window. However, I now find that, of the 51 variants, only 21 are available to me in Flash CS3. I have tried many different solutions, including uninstalling the fonts and rebooting and re-installing. I also found a forum that suggested I delete a particular Adobe file which caches the font list
I am Carlos, I am working on a little App in Flash CS5 but I cant find the way to set a Font Style to a label or button components.
The program just add values to a variable and print it to the label, that works perfect, the problem is that when I test the app, the text size in the label and button are so small that they are useless.
As a Workaround I add a text with TextTool in which I can set "Character" in list of properties, but no "Character" section in list of properties for Label or Button.
So, the "promptDisplay" in a computer(online) that does not have "Acens.ttf" installed shows the predefined one, but the inputed text is showed correctly with the embeded font!
In Flex/AS3 font embedding has been totally revamped. You have to use the Embed tag. Simple embedding of a single font isn't a problem but when I try to embed multiple members of a font family, I get into trouble. I want to embed Helvetica and Helvetica Bold in one of my projects. Embedding Helvetica isn't a problem but I can't get the bold to work. If I just embed the bold font I get this error:
I'm trying to set a text field to arial, helvetica, sans AFTER I disable embedded fonts, but I'm having trouble with the CSS. This is what works for embedded fonts when I'm using English text:
But then if I switch languages and therefore have the embed fonts = false I get a serif font. That's not surprising, because I can't use anything else in there... adding other font families doesn't help and "breaks" the embedded version:
btw, I have to use weight and style so it looks right when using device fonts. I guess I really need a way to set everything to "_sans" but not on the actual text fields themselves. That didn't work for me, because this doesn't help:
Code: body { font-family:"MetaPlusBold-Roman" ; }
I have to set my text fields to the embedded font. They're dynamic but already on the stage so I can animate them easily.
My air app is using the FlexChrome instead of the system chrome. The problem is I also have a .CSS for skinning that sets the skins for the Button class. This is also changing the 3 buttons (minimize, maximize, close) in the flex chrome which is undesired. Is there a way to make it not effect the Flex chrome buttons?Also the css file is in a central location and I use it for many apps so I would like not to have to change the css file but change something in my app only so I do not effect other projects.
Is it possible to set their width with Style, something like this: I tried it, but auto-complete isn't working, which leads me to think that there's something wrong with the syntax. Basically my goal is to not have the width property set specifically for all 4.
I am trying to add different icon on different buttons. I have my skin file ready but not sure if I have to create different skin class for different button. It sounds inefficient.
I have spark skin a button with up, down, over, and disable states in a button component to create a modular. Is there a way when the user press and hold a key, the button will remain in 'down' state?
Is it possible? Or do I need to use Skin architecture? I can't found the property border color, so I think I need to create a entire skin customized? Or are there the property accessible by css?
I have a skin class whose host component is a Toggle Button. I need to be able to add a border around it but only on the top, left, and right sides, As I understand it you have to the: <s:Line> component. So I added:
This worked for the top line , But I can't seem to get the left and right lines. I tried: this for the left side line, but it did not work (no line showed up):
I download the files for Lee's "Preloading in ActionScript 3" Tutorial and encounter a problem when I try to change the font family for the percent text. No problems when changing the size and color, just the family. Does anyone know why this happens? [URL]
I have a Movie Clip which consists of a text-box with some text in it.I am trying to tween this movie clip so it either moves randomly throughout the animation or have the movie clip bounce off the edges similar to a standard screen saver you might see. While slowly changing it's text through many different font families Is it possible to have a movie clip tween randomly through an animation and is it possible to change the text to many different families in a slow transition.
I'm trying to copy/modify the spark skin for the default button, but not sure how to find that skin. When I hover over <s:Button and Ctrl + Click it, it takes me to the Button class, but there isn't any skin information there.
