AS3: change the size of text in the TextInput component

Similar Questions

• Value of the TextInput component spent in the field of dynamic text - part 02

  So I completely did not solve my problem, here is what happens...

  Update the dynamic text box is always a character behind what is entered in the TextInput component.  For example, my name is Shawn, if I entered 'Shawn' in the text entry the dynamic text boxes will display 'Shaw '.  He will enter the "n" if I type another character, and then go back, delete the extra character.

  Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

  Try to use the CHANGE event on the contrary...

  F_NAME.addEventListener (Event.change, copyText);

• How to get the value of the textInput component to perform the calculation?

  

  I need some help here... I'm trying to get the value from the user input to the TextInput component that is the age, size and weight to calculate the bmr and display the result in member("result").text.

  How am I suppose to pass the integer in order for me to perform the calculation? If you'd be grateful if someone can help me with this, thanks!

  Here's the formula:

  The equation of Harris Benedict BMR estimates:

  For women: (9.56 x w) + (1.85 x h) - (4.68 x a) + 655

  For men: (13.75 x w) + (5 x h) - (6.76 x a) + 66

  My mistake. You can only re-branded a string to the text property of a text member. Just need to convert the value to a string using the string function.  Use this

  Member ("result"). Text = string ((13.75 * value (member("weightText").text)) + (5 * value (member("heightText").text))-(6.76 * value (member("ageText").text)) + 66)

• How can I change the TextInput fonts?

  Hello

  I use Adobe Flash CS5 and Action Script 3, but I am struggling to do something really simple (which means I'm looking in the wrong place, no doubt), I have 5 TextInput fields, I added to the scene via the "Components" option, but after finding out how to change the color of the field, I now want to change the font which appears when you type directly in the fields when play Flash animation, but I can't seem to find this feature.

  I found a tutorial that said going in the properties panel, and then clicking on ' character, then "Embed Font", but this perhaps in CS4?

  Any help would be great!

• get the value of the TextInput component?

  what I am doing wrong? outputs undefined trace.
  
  I have a TextInput component to the stage with an instance name of the name of user and a button on the stage with an instance name of submit
  
  
  

  I think its because you're declaring a local variable with the var inside the submitForm function.
  var userName:mx.controls.TextInput;

  Try commenting on this line and see if it works. You can use it outside the submitForm function

• Windows 7 - new computer - changes in size of text coming out of sleep mode

  I have DPI set at 125% but when out of sleep mode, the screen goes to 150%, even if she is still set to 125% - so no reason, he goes back to the right size.

  Enjoy all the proposals/solutions.  Linda H.

  For anyone else having the problem; Open the Device Manager, graphics cards and update the drivers from the Chipset.  In addition, make sure you have the correct display resolution.  It worked!

• Bug when you set the text of a TextInput in MXML

  Hello

  I upgraded my Playbook Tablet OS version 2.0.0.6149 previous beta (I think it was 2.0.0.4xxx). Since then, my application written in Flash Builder 4.6 target AIR 3 fails when I put the text into a TextInput in MXML.

  The MXML code is:

  <>

  ID = "frequencyText" text = "440,000" / >

  When I run it, I get the following error:

  TypeError: Error #1009: cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

  In Flex 4.6 Adobe had changed the TextInput control to use StageText instead of TextField. The native implementation of StageText PlayBook is basically a version not stripped of the qnx.fuse.ui.TextInput. There are some use cases that throws an error our implementation of StageText.

  The solution for now is to put a skin.

  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/Tablet-OS-SDK-for-Adobe-Air/Tablet-SDK-2-0-for-FB-4-6-TextInp...

  We are working on a fix for version 2.0 of the final tablet. It is also worth noting that this error comes from a code that is on the device and not in the SDK.

  Try.

• Help! Cannot display the text in the TextInput

  I seem to be unable to display text that I type in the TextInput component when I dynamically attach the second time around. I have a method that attaches the TextInput component. This first time around, it works fine. When I call another method which also attaches an instance of the TextInput component, I can't see what I'm typing. I can trace the text value. I don't see the text. I'm not doing anything fancy here, just myClip.attachMovie ("TextInput", "myInput", this.getNextHighestDepth ()). I'm not hide the component. There are times when I try to attach a clip that contains the TextInput component. No way works the second time, the clip is instantiated.

  ------------------------------------------------------
  myUIHolder.attachMovie (uiArray , uiArray, myUIHolder.getNextHighestDepth (), {myObjToEdit:selectedObj, _y:myUIHolder [uiArray [i-1]] ._height + myUIHolder [uiArray [i - 1]] ._y + 10});
  ------------------------------------------------------
  the first param of attachMovie must be an id/Assembly of the mc that you are engaging, not some kind of table. (unless, of course, you have created an and duplicated 100 times to populate the dynamic list... one is enough)

• Can't assign value to the flash textinput component

  Spent more than three hours looking for answer in the documentation, help and in this forum. Most of the previous applications back solutions for the component to work by clicking on passAlways or get the value of the "input" Member, who must be changed for Member put sprite (12) .text in myVariable.  But, in my application, the student between something in the textinput component and then we go to a different image, but if the game is over, we return to the frame textinput, but the contents of the textinput is gone. I tried replacing it with a field for the textInput and retains the value for the spotlight of the computer, but I can't get an editable to the pop field in iOS, a keyboard when I touch it (does not work in iOS editable fields?). The closest I could get to the discovery and the answer was back in 2006 Taylor says that:

  Sprite (member ("myname")) = getValueFromFile (fileNm, "NAME") .text

  This script is located in a film script "prepareMovie" & it works perfectly.

  I tried all kinds of things to assign a value to my textinput and get an error as found property type

  Sprite (Member ("mycastname")) .text = "s".

  Sprite (Member ("mycastname")) .text = $myvariable

  Assigning a value to the flash textinput component please?

  You use something like:

  sprite(channelNumber).text = "someString"
  

  but it will only work while the playhead is in the interval of the sprite in question, and only after the sprite has initialized (after the first event of #enterFrame to this sprite)

• How to specify the JRE (component Pack)

  When I created my project, he asked me what JRE to use and I said 4.6.  Now, I want to change to 4.5 (and change to my taste and so forth).  When I go to "Windows-> preferences-> Java-> Installed JREs", I can see all the components, as I should, and I can choose what I want, which makes it the default for newly created projects.  When I right click on my project and go to 'Properties-> Blackberry project-> View/Edit Application Descriptor', there are all my JREs (and so I guess these are the component packs) under the heading "Preprocessor Directives", which doesn't seem to have anything to do with JRE or component.  In addition, they are all greyed out and I can't select another than one marked 'BlackBerrySDK4.6.0', even if I can see all others grayed.

  I'm in the right place to change the JRE/component Pack I want to build for and, if so, how do the selections not gray?

  Or, if not, is there a file I can edit somewhere that tells what JRE to use Eclipse/Blackberry?

  Thank you

  Allen

  You should see JRE System Library in your project in your package Explorer.

  Right-click it, and then click Properties to change your target OS.

  The preprocessor directives change each time you change the JRE to use preprocessor to strip the code that is not compatible with a certain operating system.

• Is there an add-on that will change the defalt for only a single Web site text size?

  I would like to change the size of the default text of a site without changing anything else. E.g. onelook.com. Can I change the size of several ways, but I have to change it every time I'm looking for a Word. I don't want to change windows or Firefox. Just this site.

  Make sure that you are not Firefox running in permanent private browsing mode (don't remember history).

  In case you use 'Clear history of Firefox closing' or otherwise to clear the history.

  • do not delete Site preferences

  You can also check for problems with the content file - prefs.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder.

• I want to resize the text in the Apple support pages WITHOUT changing the page size

  I spend a lot of time reading and learning on the Apple discussion forums, but all of a sudden my text size became too small. While I can easily adjust to the size of reading, which unfortunately also increases the size of the page and as a result I have to drag left and right pages to read continuously or click on the symbols... I'm trying Nosquint, but so far have not found the solution.

  There should really be a non-technical way of this operation and thus creating a permanent framework. All of my pages of BBC can be addressed via the parameters of 'content', but it does not affect Apple talk pages.

  There are two types of Zoom in Firefox; Text zoom and zoom on the Page.

• How to change the size of text in the message list?

  The use of Thunderbird 24 under Windows 7.

  Preferences-display-font-size allows me to change the size of the text in the message pane, but what I want to do is to increase the size of the text in the message above the message pane list and in the list of folders to the left of these.

  I need larger text to help an older user with a bad view, so any advice will be greatly appreciated.

  I have already set the Windows system font to a workable size.  It doesn't seem to affect the Thunderbird font at all.

• Cannot change the size of the text

  I tested a site and can get no response in FF mobile if I change the text size to the size of the text/display/settings. The text just stay the same size, regardless of whether I put small or very large.

  Site zooms 'text only' in FF Office and do so in all other browsers I tested (including mobile) who have this type of installation. So I think that it is unlikely that the design of the site.

  I know it is possible to double tap and increase the zoom level of the page but as mobile FF have a text size option in the menu I like t would be able to test it.

  I have the problem with android 4.2 and 4.4 and my browser is up-to-date.

  Thank you.

  The size of the text only inflated for sites that are 'desktop '. For the complete gritty details, see http://www.jwir3.com/blog/2012/07/30/font-inflation-fennec-and-you/
