Actionscript 3 :: Reference Only A Portion Of TextArea's HtmlText Block?
Jan 6, 2010I have a number of very poor-quality pdf documents that look like 80's photocopies, which I'm rebuilding in Flash (Flex Builder 3 MXML application), representing paragraphs of text in TextAreas so that selected portions can be bold or italic, or whatever I need. I need a way to apply toolTips or event listeners to individual words within the block of text to link those words to a glossary. I'm perfectly happy to create a definition panel that is populated and made visible with a mouseOver, but don't know how to do it to just a portion of the text.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make The Text In A Textarea Go Until The Length Of The Textarea?
Nov 3, 2009A little much put in the title, but my question is just that. I have the following AS3 code for my textarea...

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).

Flex :: Textarea Text Attribute But Still Renders As Html
Mar 24, 2010if 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.

Flex :: Text Inserted Into TextArea Causes Application To Hang
Jun 5, 2011I 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;

View 1 RepliesFlex :: Float Movieclip Over Textarea To Make It Appear Like It's Part Of Text?
May 29, 2009Take a look at this demo, how do they accomplish the Inline Changes feature? To me it looks like they are floating a movieclip over the textarea. What I can't figure out is how they anchored the movieclip to stay in the correct position. If you type something before the movieclip it moves position along with the text, the movieclips even move to the next line when the text word wraps. Does anyone have an idea?
View 1 RepliesFlex :: Text In TextArea On AIR Mobile App Disappears After Displaying For A Moment?
Feb 29, 2012I am trying to use a text area to display some text on a mobile AIR app. It works fine whenever I am using the phone emulator on my desktop to debug, however whenever I put the app on my phone, the text displays, then disappears. I've also noticed that if I lock the screen and unlock, the text will display just fine when I come back.
Here's the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="Program Overview">
<fx:Declarations>
[code]....
One other interesting thing to note is that it only happens on certain Views, and only on Views in the first ViewNavigator tab. This leads me to believe that there isn't really anything wrong with my use of the TextArea, but something else happening at a higher level in the application.

Flex :: Changing Spark TextArea Text Color Dynamically Over A Range Of Characters?
Dec 22, 2010I am attempting to dynamically change the color of a subset/portion of text in a Spark TextArea control. Using the MX-based TextArea, I could leverage the mx.controls.textClasses.TextRange type and change the color directly as follows:
TextRange tr = new TextRange(theTextAreaControl, false, beginIndex, endIndex);
tr.color = somePredefindColor;
Input Parameters to TextRange constructor:
1st argument: The TextArea control that will provide access to the underlying textField property
2nd argument: Indicates the TextRange will not modify the content of the TextArea
3rd argument: The beginning index position in the TextArea text string
4th argument: The ending index position in the TextArea text string
How would I go about doing this for a Spark-based TextArea control? I am looking to dynamically change the font color for a range of text, not just the entire TextArea AND I cannot statically specify the font color. The problem I run into when trying to re-use the TextRange type is that the 1st argument is expected to provide the textField property, which is currently not on the Spark-based TextArea control. I thought about extending the Spark-based TextArea control to provide this accessor property but that seems like overkill and is probably not the best approach.
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?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Input A Variable At A Specific Portion Of The Text?
Feb 29, 2012I have a string of text, but within this text I want to input a variable at a specific portion of the text. Now this string of text is taken from an XML file. So the XML file would look like this for example:
Code:
<name>Sweep</name>
<type>ATK</type>
<target>AoE-EN</target>
<caste>Warrior</caste>
<desc>"This is a text"+temp.alias+"hey"</desc>
The <desc> is an example of a way I tried to make it work. What I want to happen is when I display the desc in my flash file, it inputs the alias (which in the xml is the name) of the item. In PHP this could be doing using EVAL() but I notice the support for that type of function is removed in AS3.
