View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Converting Style Code From Classic Text To TLF Text?
Jan 10, 2011I've got a project that currently uses classic dynamic text fields that pull in information from an XML file. The text contains a 'keyword' that's referenced in the XML, that can be situated anywhere in the complete sentence. This keyword needs to be a different colour and font size... but as I said, it can appear anywhere.
Currently this works by getting the keyword from the XML, finding its length, finding the index of where it starts, splicing the main string, and then setting TextFormat to the number of chars in keyword, which changes the font size and colour for just that keyword in the sentence.
This works great for the classic dynamic text boxes. It doesn't however work with TLF text, it just applies the new format to the entire text field. I don't have any experience with TLF text as I've just upgraded to CS5 and now need to make this work in Hebrew.The code snippet for the keyword colour change looks like this:Where screen01Norm & screen01Key are things pulled from XML & screen_01.txt_box_combined is the text field.
var newFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
newFormat.color = 0x319aca;
newFormat.size = 50;

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Flash CS5 With Classic Text
Jul 26, 2010I got Flash CS5 a few days ago and tried to compile some of my applications - got strange textfield representation, parts of words were missing. Very simple example to demonstrate something's not working right here:
-C-reate a textfield (classic; static) type "Test". Choose Arial Regular as Font.
-Create an input textfield (classic), choose Arial Bold as Font, embed the font with all glyphs (or subgroup).
-Compile it: Try to type into the input textfield - no cursor (for me at least), nothing shows up.
If you embed the Arial Regular also (which should not be necessary for a static text), the input field does respond but shows Arial Regular instead of Bold.So it seems you cannot use two weights of the same font in one Flash movie?Using TLF it works fine - but I can't switch over yet, some of my customers do still use Player 9.
Flash :: Professional - CS5 - Import As Classic Text
Jun 9, 2010Is it possible in Flash CS5 to import text from a PSD as Classic Text. Since TLF Text doesn't support older postscript fonts, I'd like to be able to import as classic text instead of doing a find and replace and hope for the best.
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Using EventListeners With Classic Text Objects
Aug 25, 2010I have created 4 classic text objects and called them Butt1 thru Butt4.This is so I can change the text in code from time to time.I want to create an event listener to pick up when the user;
a) mouses over Butt1, etc.
b) mouses out of Butt1, etc.
c) clicks on Butt1, etc.
In each case I will define a function to perform actions when the button is moused over, moused out or clicked.AddEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler); does not seem to have parameters(as far as I can tell)to point to Butt1, etc.

View 2 RepliesProfessional :: Text Resizing Via Motion Vs Classic Tween?
Nov 30, 2010If I put any text letter of any size at the top of the stage, lets say for example a "T" of 10 pts. Then move the timeline to frame 50 and insert a keyframe and then move that "T" down to the bottom of the stage and resize it to say 50 pts. (I want the effect of the letter growing as it moves down the stage).If I then isert a Motion Tween and scrub it the letter just stays at 10 pt until the keyframe at 50is hit and then it resizes to 50. Not the effect I am looking for.But if I use the classic tween then it does do what I want which is gradually grow from 10 pts to 50 pts by the bottom of the stage.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Illustrator Text In CS5 - Change From TLF To Classic
Apr 19, 2011I've just begun using Flash CS5 and I am really at a loss to explain the problems with text in imported Illustrator files. In CS3, which I've used for years, when you import an illustrator file the text is almost perfectly preserved. It has the correct fonts, the text weights are preserved, etc. All is well. In CS5 it converts everything to something called TLF text (whatever that is) and changes EVERYTHING to either _sans or _serif. You can't have both apparently. The fonts are not the same and it's not editable.
In order to set things right I have to change all the text from TLF to classic. THEN I have to change all the text to the proper font and weight. It is a serious problem. I've looked in preferences and on some other forums and I'm not seeing any answers at all. It seems insane to only allow sans or serif when importing and what is this TLF text anyway and why can't I have it default to classic, which seems to work like CS3.

Actionscript 3 :: Pasting "classic Text" From Illustrator Into Flash Instead Of TLF
Jan 28, 2012I'm trying to paste some non-dynamic text from a mockup from illustrator into flash. This is something I've done a million times before but my new version of flash(cs5) is giving me issues. The default format when you paste text is now TLF which has a ton of problems associated with it and I don't want to use it. If I paste the text in and then change it to "classic text" it changes the layout of the text which makes me basically have to redo my text layout. Is there a way to change the way text gets pasted in and make it default to classic text?

Flex :: 4 - Add An Extra Text Field To The Button Component And Dynamically Change Text?
Jan 27, 2011I created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.
Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.
