Flex :: Restricting Character Set In A Textinput Field?
Jan 16, 2012
I have a TextInput field that should be restricted to either capital letters, lowercase letters, numbers and underscores. This is the code I'm trying to use to restrict characters:
restrict="A-Za-z½-9 \_-"
I'm using MXML for this Textinput component.
Unfortunately this does not restrict the character, which is the last character I'd like to restrict.
How can I add the backslash to the list of restricted characters?

The Flex TextInput component does not accept "ç" characters. Could this be a flex or a font issue or has anybody recognized a similar problem=

I was just curious about the password mode display of the TextInput control in flex. The control displays asterisks instead of the characters themselves when the 'displayAsPassword' is set to true. Quoting the documentation,displayAsPassword If true, the field does not display entered text, instead, each text character entered into the control appears as the character "*".So, is there any way to change this displayed character, unless of course creating a custom component or extending the existing TextInput control?

I want to modify the Flex 3 TextInput control to accept a tab character as valid input (The app allows the user to enter an arbitrary delimiter string for file output formatting, and tab is a common use case). However, clearly in the default implementation the tab key changes the form focus away from the selected control.

I'd like to be able to add a character to a TextInput programmatically (say when you press a button) even when using IMEs (I'm using a Japanese IME right now). Normally this would be super easy, i.e.
protected function button_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
ti.text = "k";
}

(FOR MY SCUBA)
onClipEvent (load) {
xspeed = 10;

I have an app where I am looking to make the enter key act like a tab key. I can easily capture the keypress event and setFocus to a textinput field. The problem is figuring out which textinput field to give focus to. I have this code
trace(this.window.focusManager);
//returns TheWindow86.focusManager
trace(this.window.focusManager.getNextFocusManagerComponent());
//returns null
//This is what I was hoping would work
this.window.focusManager.getNextFocusManagerComponent().setFocus();
The code is in a controller class and "this.window" references an instance of a nativeWindow mxml file "TheWindow.mxml". The first trace works as expected, but the second one gives null.

How do you two-way bind an integer to an input field in Flex/FB4? is_admin is an integer : <s:TextInput id="textUserIsAdmin" text="@{user.is_admin}" width="5"/> I receive: 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type String to an unrelated type int. Is there a different input type, or do I have to bind a different way?

I'm trying to display query data into multiple TextInput Fields in Flex.
<mx:TextInput id="stagInput" text="{acContacts}" width="170" x="120" y="74"/>
This is what I'm trying but all that displays is [object Object]
I think I need to define the database field I'm wanting to display, but I'm unsure how to do this as TextInput fields don't support dataField or labelField properties. Is there another property I don't know about? How do i go about fixing this?

All I want to do is have a textInput Field on my stage called 'countdown' to display the value of a variable.
I want a variable I have in the document class called 'minute' to basically display its value in the text field on my stage.
This is what I have in my document class, obviously the text part is wrong can anyone point me in the right direction?
var minute:int = new int (60);
this.countdown.text = "";
I also have a textInput box on my stage with an instance name of countdown.

The update to the Dynamic Text Box is always one character behind what is entered into the TextInput component. For instance my name is Shawn, if I enter "Shawn" into the Text Input the Dynamic Text Boxes will display "Shaw". It will only enter the "n" if I type another character then backspace it, deleting the extra character.

I am trying to get the position of the last character in the text field. The below script works fine till I change the width of the text from 110 to 109 or add some extra characters in the text field. For some reason the value of frame variable returns null if I change the width from 110 to 109 or add some extra characters in the field.
ActionScript Code:
var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
var spotlight:Shape = new Shape();
myTextField.width=110;

I would like to replace the ":" for text_field_1 Instead, @ should show up when somebody hits :
Any ideas how to do that in as2?
Maybe something like: if text_field_1 is focused && somebody hits : add an @*to the existing text in field 1.
Or make a loop looks for : in text_field_1 and when it finds one it replaces it with @
But i have no idea how to do that in as2

Trough a button action I want to change the contents of a dynamic text field (i have five buttons in total). I made this textfield style bold, and added a (inner) shadow filter to it. Everytime a certain button gets clicked the content and colour of the textfield change. I want to retain the style and filter. However, while the colour change goes correct, the style and filter go back to regular..Through a coincidence i discovered that if I append the textfield in stead of replacing it entirely the transitions goes correctly.[code]In summary if i click the button with the append text action to it first, everything goes well..however when i click the buttons containing the replace text action first the style of the dynamic text field goes back to regular.

I need the use of the chars â„¢ and ® but only the latter appears. I'm using a loadVars object and an external .txt file which is loading with success, but where I need the phrase "Soo Bahk Doâ„¢ Moo Duk Kwan®," I only get "Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan®" Why doesn't "â„¢" load?
Edit: I'd like to add that I have chosen to embed all uppercase,lowercase, and punctuation marks, and I additionally added â„¢ and ® to ensure they'd appear, but, the trademark logo still does not appear.

I've had a Flash website up and running for about a year which includes an external text file linked to a dynamic text field.
Everything worked well until I recently added content to the external text file.
Suddenly, the file won't load in flash.
If I play around and cut a line here or there, it sometimes loads. Sometimes not. Sometimes it looks like there might be a character limit. Sometimes it looks like flash might be having a problem with certain characters.
So my questions are:
1.) Does Flash have a limit on the amount of characters that can be displayed in a dynamic field.
2.) If so, can this be changed with as3?

I have encountered strange problem. I have created simple Flash text field control and I wanted to compare its content with some other string. This comparison in triggered when user is pressing the button.In Action Script 2.0 code I noticed that a caret return character () was added at the end of the string coming from the input text field.It is easy to overcome the problem obviously, however I would like to understand what is going on. I use Flash CS4 with AS 2.0.
