Flex :: Textarea Text Attribute But Still Renders As Html
Mar 24, 2010
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 have created a textArea element but cannot display my HTML content. If I just display regular text it works or if I change the textArea element to a RichEditableText element it works fine. Since this is for a mobile app I would prefer to use the textArea element as recommended by Adobe.Here is the MXML code for the textArea. All I get is the border and no content displayed.
i am working in a flex application, i have an mx text control or I can use whatever control I need to do display the text value, but what I am trying to accomplish is to be able to format that text value with html 'before' it gets bound to the text control.<mx:Text text="{data.combinedCriteria}" width="99%">In the .as file that manipulates the combinedCriteria property of data,
Then htmlText doesn't support Spark Textarea. Hence produces error. How does one go about displaying HTML formatted text with spark Text Area Property.
I've been experimenting with MXML- and spark-textarea (and richtexteditor)when I copied some formatted texts like Test tes1 from MS Word 2007 and paste them inside the flash textarea , the formattings are gone (I only receive the plain texts)But when I do the same to the Jwysiwyg (a jquery wysiwyg text editor), the formatting doesn't disppear.Is there a way to make flash textareas receive formatted texts without destroying the formattings?
So this ActionScript 3 program I've been working on can'tseem to make up its mind regarding how to render block-levelelements. The first time it encounters a paragraph with a classI've defined as a block-level element, it renders correctly - witha line break before and after the paragraph. The second time thatit encounters the very same class, though, it leaves it as aninline element. I can't find any problems with my code, and I don'tknow what's going on here
I'm using AS2 in Flash CS3.I have a TextArea component in the stage that's loading its text from an XML and I've been able to use the ul and li tags to create lists. However, when I try to include a nested list it just inserts a line break between the nested list and the main list rather than indent it further. Is there a solution for this issue?Failing that, how would I be able to add non-breaking spaces into the XML so they will render inside the TextArea component? I've tried and without success. I scoured the net for some help with this and found some information about modifying the font embedding xml file with a new entry for the non-breaking space and that didn't work either, so that leaves me somewhat stumped.
I have imported a Html text into textarea using Textconverter and it works well, but I have a problemI need to mark with "image not found" if and image inside into imported html isn't more online or simply don't exist
var string:String = '<img src="elvis.gif" />'; aTextArea.textFlow = TextConverter.importToFlow(string, TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT);
Is it possible to save text of textarea in some variable or so and with its textformat (more than one color) and then reuse it to replace text in textarea?
I tried saving htmlText of textarea but the problem is when i replace it in textarea <p> tags causes problem.There will always be another extra line.

If anyone wants to view p tags problem try following. Just click on text and then move your down arrow key, cursor will go to next line.
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).
I am designing a web application in Flex 4 and currently facing an issue rendering advanced HTML tags and entities in Flex 4. All I want to do is basically render an HTML text coming to me something like the one given below:-
I want to display text in textarea in two columns. [code]...
Depending on text width in Column1 text in Column2 will be shifted. So all rows in Column2 are going to be aligned. How can I do this without html <table>?
I'm scaling text from small to large using tweens, but when the text is scaled, it turns into these unreable blobs. The text is still editable, just not useful. (The output looks fine, however.)Is there a setting, or a different method, I should be using to scale text in a tween to prevent this?
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;
I have a TextArea and a DataGrid. I've populated the DataGrid with a list of text files in a directory. Now I'm trying to load the selected file into the TextArea. I'm getting a null pointer exception when selecting a file from the list, which tells me I'm not accessing it right...I think.
I am using actionsript 3 and flex 3.5. Is there any way to change the font color of a part of text in TextArea control without using "htmlText" property?
For example I have a string "dog, cat, fish". I want to change the color of "cat" word to red.
Take 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?
I 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.
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.
I have an AdvancedDataGrid. One of the columns in the grid displayed with help of custom render. During the application run, I set another custom render to the same column.When I scroll data in the grid (change values for the custom renders) they display new view correctly.I want that they dispaly new view automatically (when I set them): so I think I have to call them and tell tham to refresh rgeir views.
