I'd like to have a flash document, that is placed on a webpage, BUT in the 'stage' there would be 4 or 5 pictures. a person would click on the picture they want, and it would then be shown in a preview area on the stage. There would also be a cpl input text fields, and when a person types something in this box then it would also be shown in the preview area.

View 4 RepliesI have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

there fellow actionscripters, I am currently studying design and I have a code that was constructed on class:

I have to make it, so that a user can input a value (0-255) so they can edit the GBR on the spot.
Like, putting those numbers in an input box and have the picture change according to those numbers.

View 2 Repliesthe last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {

I want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set?

I'm having some trouble with getURL (I think). It works fine when I preview with Flash's html preview but it's not working on my server. It's pretty simple. [URL].selected1 is a user-defined variable pointing to a page: ie, when the user selects variable page1 the page to be opened is [URL]. Like I said, it works with Flash's preview, but not on my server(no 404 or any response). Does there seem to be a problem with my code or might I be overlooking a server error? Here's my code:

I'm relatively new to Flash, and I�m in the process of creating a flash intro to my website. The problem is, whenever I preview one of my Mask layers by pressing Ctrl+Enter, the mask effect doesn�t work � it merely shows the masking object. The puzzling thing for me, which leads me to suggest that the mask should work is that in the normal timeline view, when I lock both the mask and masked layers and press Enter or slide through the frames � the effect works perfectly. On Ctrl+Enter all of my other Masks work fine as well - the one in question has text as the mask content.
It only stops working when I view it as an .swf file or play the movie with Ctrl+Enter. Does anyone know why this is happening, how I can get around it, or whether it will be a problem when published?

This code corresponds to a quiz question where the correct answer is either blue or green. I get the #1009 error if I input "blue". The answer "green" seems to work ok. What's wrong with my code? Is there a better way to make is so more than one answer works? Something like "blue" or "green" or "otheranswer", etc..?
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?
View 3 RepliesI need to put together an editable text area that has a custom caret (cursor) which is different from the default blinking vertical line.

View 1 RepliesWhile I'm just a beginner right now it/I'm an experienced computer user and I have really enjoyed/but when I'm looking at it now I'm trying to use flash to edit a website template, for example monster templates. I bought a template from the site and nine trying to edit it now and well it just seems like it's a very very long process to do something kind of where I just want to look at the page and I want to edit the text and only I go to bed doesn't seem to be the case. So I'll show you what I mean.
When I'm using the program and I'm in Adobe flash I'm looking now at the screen inside the program and there's no text I see the graphics images and there's no text and also is that some type of way where it's easy to navigate link to link where I can just edit the text what supposed to be in there rather than search for the funeral push page up and down until I come across just a white background with tax and then have to edited which is pretty confusing because I don't know where that's located but I the general idea that if you change it but surely there must be an easier way.
So basically I'm including a screenshot that shows you exactly what I'm talking about. Basically once again I'm in fashion items Sandy text so it's kinda hard to see what was going on or whatever so you can see the snow text located in the thing but however when I publish the file yeah you can see the text and everything I'm kinda looking for some type of you well be able to see this and just edited really. I know there are other programs out there like SWF edited her or quick note to some like that. But I really wanted to use flash, unexperienced Photoshop user and I really love all Adobe products and I really think that this is the master program to use however I'm really don't want it as of right now it's been about 40 days and nine still a bit lost navigating through the program will I'm just really just China entities tax bills and just go through the site. Now I realize I should have the respect for beautiful program like this and it's not been a be set up to the way that I'm hoping it Siskind be a point-and-click editor I understand that. I'm just wondering if anybody has any type suggestions or perhaps of I'm missing something which is fantastic.

I have 4 dynamic text boxes which duplicates the text from a main input text box. How do I write a code to make visible only the dynamic text box I want when clicked it's check box.What is the CODE to make each "DYNAMIC TEXTBOX" visible when clicked on it's checkbox?
View 6 RepliesThe desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1;
var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1";
var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............
I'm taking a stab at learning adobe cs4 flash. How can I combine different text and pictures into 1 picture?

I already have all the images separated (background, car, and text using photoshop), but I would like the background to slowly fade in, then make the car slowly fade in while coming from the left of the screen, and then the text fades in.
View 1 RepliesI want to morph a picture into a text using a shape tween.
View 1 RepliesThe idea is to make a flash object that takes data (text and images) from a mysql database and displays them. I know AS 3.0 can't talk directly to mysql but a php script will do fine. the only problem i have is that the flash file must be variable in length.I mean that if someone wants to add some more text or a picture that it can be done without changing the flv istelf.
So the flv knows what to do with a picture, or text and works in blocks, as example: each block is 20 seconds and the first block is a picture, the second is some text, ... later i want to add/remove a block.
