Difficulty with digital display of information in the text field

I am trying to display the playheadTime to a FLV (called vid_player) film on the stage in a field test (called myTextField). I used to be able to do this in older actionscript, but with AS3, I'll have a devil of a time. Here is my code:

function getCurrentTime(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
var currentTime:Number = this.vid_player.playheadTime;
this.myTextField = currentTime;
}
step3Tab.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, getCurrentTime);


I get this error:

1067: constraint implied a value of numeric type to an unrelated type flash.text:TextField.

I don't think that you have quite been able to do in previous versions! The error is telling you exactly what the problem is. You try to modify a TextField in a number, and that just doesn't work.

I don't have enough with AS3 is certainly on the top of my head if it has changed or not, but I think you want the text or the text field's htmlText property.

this.myTextField.text = currentTime;

or if she doesn't like that you need to cast or convert the currentTime to string;

this.myTextField.text = String (currentTime);
this.myTextField.text = currentTime.toString ();

  • Pop the text field scrolling buttons on the stage

    Hello all;

    I am very new to Flash so please bare with me. If anyone can point me to some examples I would really appreciate it. I have 5 buttons on my stage (in fact they are just text that I made in buttons); I would like the user to be able to click on each of them, and it appears a text field scrolling where they can read and scroll the information in the text field and then they can go back and click Next and so on. On the left side of the stage is the buttons and on the side right would be the scrolling text field. Now I realize that I could accomplish this using frameworks separated for each button and just pointing to these images, but I feel that there is an easier way... There must be there is something I'm definitely missing...

    I work with Adobe Pro.  I created a form to fill out.  When you print this form I get all the information in the text boxes that you want to print.  Anyone out there know how to do this?

  • How to paste into the text field of the Clipboard with JavaScript?

    I implement the following actions in the form of javascript:

    1. a user clicks on a link on the PDF to open a web page

    2. the user uses the web page to find information and then copy text from the web page

    3. the user clicks a button on the pdf form and it formats the text to the Clipboard and paste them into the text fields.

    I can't find any references for the reading of the data from the Clipboard with javascript in PDF Forms. is it not possible?

    Perhaps 'not possible' was a little too hard. It would be a security hole if she accepts a script in a form to copy the contents of the Clipboard without the user explicitly allowing it. It has been possible to copy the contents of the Clipboard into a form field using the app.execMenuItem method without the user knowing / allowing it, but that hole was closed. The restriction can be overcome, as explained in the documentation: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.143.html

  • problem with the characters of the text field

    Hi all

    I'm missing a few characters, once I insert the text in a dynamic text field. characters are not lacking by saying; they are replaced by empty squares.

    characters such as the euro symbol and accentuated German letter.

    What is weird is that the other German accented letters appear. If only a few selected are missing.

    How Ive set up the FLA:

    (1) I added 4 text fields to the scene to police im using, Arial, one for each font style: normal, italic, bold and bold italic and in all 4 fields ive incorporated all Latin characters (to include the German characters accentuaded and im guessing it is in the punctuation group that contains the euro symbol so that one is also incorporated), not to mention as lowercase, uppercase, numeric, and all the groupd default to include the basic text.

    (2) I have a dynamic text field created with createTextField, and set up the ActionScript code following (2):

    This.createTextField("hello_txt",0,10,10,100,20) ("T_text", 1,0,10,Stage.width-60, 50);

    var myFmt = new TextFormat();

    myFmt.size = 12;

    myFmt.leading = 3;

    myFmt.font = "Arial";

    T_text.html = true;

    T_text. AutoSize = 'left ';

    T_text. Multiline = true;

    T_text.WordWrap = true;

    T_text. Selectable = false;

    T_text.embedFonts = false;

    T_text. TextColor = "0 x 666666 ';

    T_text.htmlText = _global.gallery_1_image_text_1; This holds the im text, called in a database.

    T_text.setNewTextFormat (myFmt);

    now, I'm composing text in a database.

    When calling the text from the browser's address bar, there is no missing characters.

    It's just when I make this appeal of flash and load the text in the dynamic text field, that the characters will be missed.

    Here is a link to a screenshot of the text that is displayed in the text field Dynamics defective flash.

    http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/340/UTF8.PNG

    any ideas? I mean, it seems that the arial font is missing some characters accented! because the code that I have installed loads other accented characters.

    someone has seen this problem before and know how to solve?

  • How to get the color of the text information in the text layer?

    How to get the color of the text information in the text layer?  I mean using scripts Photoshop, Version of Photoshop CS 8.0

    The color textItem is readable for me in VBS Note expects the activeLayer be a textLayer and displays the HexValue of the color of the text.

    Option Explicit
    
    Dim appRef
    Dim docRef
    Dim textItemRef
    Dim artLayerRef
    Dim textColor
    
    Set appRef = CreateObject( "Photoshop.Application" )

    Set textItemRef = artLayerRef.TextItem
    Set textColor = textItemRef.Color
    
    MsgBox textColor.RGB.HexValue
    

    And returns the color of the text if the text is the same color. But if the text is more than a color textItem.color returns only the color of the first text range.

  • FlowFieldManager not 'compatible' with the text fields?

    Hi all.

    I'm making an icon to follow the end of a given text. A bit like the phoneLog done with the green phone icon next any number that you enter.

    I tried the substitution of the DrawText, but unfortunately after conditioning to the new line I don't have an X coordinated to begin to draw.

    That's what I would like to:

    +-----------++-----+

    | text 1234 | icon |

    +-----------++-----+

    After entering the text more:

    +--------------------++-----+

    | text 1234567890 | icon |

    +--------------------++-----+

    Unfortunately FlowFieldManager encapsulates the new line icon

    It seems that she's done this before and after each text field. If I have two icons, one after the other, they have a format horizontal, but at the moment where I have to add a textField, it is wrapped in a new line (are complemented by the icons) or icons are pushed to the next line (if the text box before the icons).

    So, how can I add this icon to track the length of the text?

    The problem here is that text fields normally tell their manager encompassing that they want to take the entire width.  FlowFieldManager who will respect and give them the entire width.

    You will need to customize the text field, replace the functions of layout and width and make sure he asks only the size that he actually need.

    If the text cannot be updated, and then you try to use rather than RichTextField LabelField.  LabelField asks only the width he needed.

    Sorry I can't give you any appropriate code because I have never done this.  I did not because from a user interface point of view I don't think it looks good.

    This mechanism can fail when the text field resumed more size on a width - fields are always "rectangular".

  • Script to move the description metadata information in the title field

  • I have created a form in Indesign. Is there a way to create the default text in a text field that displays the interactive pdf "insert text here" in the text field?

    I have created a form for the company, so that I work. It is a form that will be used in several offices and has buttons, drop downs and text fields. One of the text fields has a requirement that when the PDF file is opened, the text field has something written in there already, as an example (and one only) INSERT the TEXT HERE. I created the text field in Indesign and used the text tool to type in the area of the body-copy required. After that I have to export it as an interactive PDF, text in the text field disappeared.

    Drop-down lists give an option for a default choice, but I don't see a way to create default text in the Panel of buttons and forms for text fields. Is there a workaround or a hidden feature?

    Thank you!

  • Problem of text selection in the text field for entry in the emulator

    I'm having a problem of text selection in a text field when I run my application in the emulator Playbook. Let me see if I can expose the problem here:

    1. The field in question is a classic text, text with an integrated in police entry field. The domain is in a SWC and referenced in another FILE.
    2. The code is set up such that when a user clicks the field function is called to highlight all the text. The code is more or less as follows:
    thisField.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onFieldClick);
    
    private function onFieldClick(event:MouseEvent):void
    {
       var selectedField:TextField = event.target as TextField;
       selectedField.setSelection(0, selectedField.text.length);
    }
    

    The problem I'm having is that when I try clicking on the emulator, the text field in 'domain' is sometimes selected as expected, sometimes not. When the text is not selected as expected the cursor always appears in the field and the Playbook keyboard slides up by below. What is particularly problematic, that's what often happens, is that the whole scene moves upward on 10px when it is clicked on the ground. If I try to click on the same ground once again, another change to the top of 10px or so, etc..

    So why the text not properly selected and why the scene evolves upwards?

    I realize that more information may be required from me to correctly solve this problem, but if someone has all understand why this may be the case, I would be happy to learn from him.

    Thank you

    I can answer the question of displacement.  This is a bug in BB and supposed to be fixed in version «next» SDK

    The question of the selection, I'll guess has to do with the fileld with focus, selection is not possible.  Try to set the focus outside of maybe the text field?

  • Tips: APEX 5 r IR by a dynamic action after the text fields complete

    Hello I hope I can get assistance on this matter and thank you in advance for any information.

    I have an APEX 5 screen, that has 4 fields of entry of text and under this one IR that has these 4 parameters in its SQL where clauses.

    Now if I create a button that submits page or redirects to this page my report can be updated with the values of user entered without problem, basic stuff.  If I create the settings section as a dialog box model once again that I can get the update report as this dialogue submits the page as well as the report can refresh according to closed dialog option.

    What I struggle to reach is to allow the user to enter values in the text fields click on a button called 'submit' and there all stages of implementing dynamic action without page reloading.  I want user to P1_A, P1_B, P1_C, P1_D press on "submit" input, dynamic action that links the values entered into the fields, then fire another dynamic action that updates the State when the button is clicked / modified values what works the best.

    I am struggling to get this to work and I even tried to copy these settings and do them as hidden for example bind input P1_A to P1_A_Hidden by a dynamic action and have the report where clause =: P1_A_HIDDEN, but have not managed to get this working.

    It's possible?  I know its easy to simply send the page and make it work, but I want the experience to be quite uniform for the user and act as you never leave the page.

    I saw on the packages of the app in the chart example.  The bubble chart has a list selector (salary) and the table updates dynamically, it seems so that the process can occur, but I need the user to enter text and not use selection lists.

    My apologies if I missed any, but I can give you more if it helps.

    The button simply trigger a unique dynamic action of refreshment on the IR region. Session state for page elements must be processed automatically by specifying them in the property Page to submit Items of the IR region.
