View 2 RepliesI am overlaying two textinput components and a UILoader component on top of a flash video. The three components retrieve data from the weather.com XML service and display current conditions for a city. As the video plays, the camera pans to another geographical location. Thus, I need to have the three components be visible only during certain frames. To this end, I've created the following if statement:
if(this.currentFrame>25&&this.currentFrame<150){
txtlowtemp.visible=true
txthitemp.visible=true
uicondicon.visible=true;
}
However, when I play the SWF the visibility of these components do not change.
In the AdvancedDataGrid component, when you are in Edit mode in a cell, you can hit the Escape key to cancel editing (i.e. return to the previous value in the cell).I had expected the same behaviour while in Edit mode in both the Halo and Spark TextInput and TextArea components, and was surprised to find out that this is not the case.I looked at the attributes of all four components to see if this is something that I need to configure, but couldn't find anything.

Texta1.blendMode = BlendMode.LAYER;

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).

View 1 RepliesEvery time a user takes a new line (i.e each time they press the return/enter key) when typing in a textArea, I would like the textArea to dispatch an event.I can then listen for this event and then carry out some processing on the textArea's contents.
View 2 RepliesTake 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 RepliesI want to introduce a canvas component by zooming from a height & width of 0.0 to 1.0. I want the component to be invisible until the zoom begins and then for it to be visible when it begins zooming.
However, if I bind the zoom effect to a showEffect trigger on the component and then make the component visible, it will first show the component at its regular size for a split second before it begins the zoom effect. If I combine the zoom effect and setting the component visible together in a parallel, it will also flash the component at its regular size for a split second before the zoom. If I make the component visible when the zoom effect starts through its effectStart event, it still does it. Does anyone know how to make it visible only when the zoom effect begins so that it doesn't flash the component at its regular size for a split second before the zoom effect?
How can i make a combination of keys make a movie clip visible? Basically i want something like this to work:
if(Key.isDown(Key.Alt && Key.A)){
reminder._visible = true;
}
So when someone presses the Alt and A keys down at the same time the 'reminder' mc becomes visible?

View 2 RepliesI want to make a TextArea component public so it can be accessed from other frames. For example, I want to be able to say that if this button is pressed change the TextArea text to "1" and go to the frame.
I have no idea how to do this, i've tried : frameHome.textArea.text = "1"; to change the text but it doesn't work so i'm presumming that i'm a little off mark.
If my ComboBox is editable how can I tell if a change event comes from a change to the TextInput or a change in the selectedIndex of the drop down?
Is there a way to check for this in the event object?

I changed the background color but it's not working:[code]

even once i'v executed "getMcInfo", I get "null" from the trace statement in "changeBorderColor", I should get [object blabla]. I know this has something to do with the scope of the variable "MC" but i just can't fine a solution..
Is it possible to have a MC go to ._visible=false after a certain amount of time? So you would roll over it and let's say after 2 seconds it would become not visible. Is this to do with the setInterval function? Actionscript knowledge is slim so be gentle.

I would like to make an object visible off stage. So that the object is floated over the HTML. Any Ideas. I don't seem to be able to do it using Transparent Window in the HTML publish options and think it may only be possible using javascript (layers) but I would much prefer to only use flash so if anyone has a idea I'd love to hear it.

View 6 RepliesI have a map of states state when a particular state is clicked on, the fla centers on and zooms to that state. When you click on a state a unique ID is pulled from an xml. Using this ID, I can then call all the counties that are part of this state through the county's xml which is also loaded on my stage.or example if I click on Arizona, it zooms and I get a trace of all the instance names of the counties within Arizona.
//call all instance names of Arizona counties
cldcnfips=(cntXml.Records.Record.(STATE_FIPS==cldstfips).afips.children());
trace(cldcnfips);

View 2 RepliesI am making a jigsaw puzzle in flash. But I have a weird bug. There are 25 pieces, 5x5. I am passing in the background bitmapData to the pieces as they are created.
For each piece I create a single puzzle-shaped mask bitmap.
So each piece contains a bitmap whose bitmapdata is the puzzle texture. And each piece has a mask piece.
When I just show the masks, all 25 pieces are drawn to the stage.
But when I use the piece masks to mask out the texture, I seem to have a hard limit to 22 pieces in which the mask is applied. This happens if I am using 25 peices or even 80 or 100. Each time, only the last 22 pieces created will display the texture. [code]...
