• Scroll bar with the dynamic text field?

  I have a dynamic text field, multi-line. I have attached a scrollbar to it using drag component / move.
  
  It is empty, but gets text thrown in through the appendText() method when the user clicks a button.
  
  It works, but if there are more lines which fits in the text field, the scroll bar does not "activate" and allow the user to scroll to see it all.
  
  I'm sure I'm missing something simple here, can someone please help. Thank you.

  Use the scroll bar update() method after text is added.

• problem by turning the dynamic text field

  Hi all

  In an application, I created a dynamic text field and then try to shoot with the _rotation method but it became invisible. Please respond if anyone knows something about this.

  If you do not see your text, you're not embed fonts.

  When you use actionscript to embed a font, you must have the fonts in your library with a connection id, create a textformat instance and assign the property and finally give the textformat to your textfield.  for example

  _root.createTextField ("txt", _root.getNextHighestDepth (), 50,50,50, 50);
  _root.txt.embedFonts = true;
  _root.txt.text = "Hello";
  _root.txt._rotation = 20;

  var tfor:TextFormat = new TextFormat();

  Tfor.font = "yourfontslinkageid";   // <- linkage="" id="" of="" font="" in="" your="">

  _root.txt.setTextFormat (Tfor);

• link to the function in the dynamic text field

  so I have a dynamic text field that needs to display something like...
  
  You have been identified as Syd Barrett. If it is incorrect, click here
  
  the dynamic part is the name of Syd Barrett in this example, which is introduced by a variable. now how the word 'here' to become a link to an ActionScript function and a different color?
  

  I was wondering how to do this also. There is a global function called asfunction, described in language AS as Reference: a special protocol for URLS in HTML text fields that allows an HREF link call an ActionScript function.
  The code below is what you're after. Your use does not need the setting but I included it for info. The parameter must be a single string, so if you want to pass multiple values, you need to analyze the in your function.

• How to create a counter with timer and the dynamic text field?...

  I am creating a 'meter' item that uses a dynamic text box formatted for decompter.1 in increments of 3 times per second, from a specified value (so the viewer would see 3.1, 3.2 then... etc.)

  Here's the code so far:

  var counter:Number;
  counter = 3.0
  
  counterText.text=(String(counter));
  
  var timer:Timer = new Timer(300);
  timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer);
  timer.start();
  
  function onTimer(event:TimerEvent):void
  {
      ???
  }
  
  

  What I can't understand, is what should go in the box function for ajouter.1 seconds whenever the clock cycles. Any help would be appreciated!

  use:

  var counter:Number = 3.0;var increment:Number = .1;var upperlimit:Number = 12;
  
  counterText.text=(String(counter));
  
  var timer:Timer = new Timer(333);timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer);timer.start();
  
  function onTimer(event:TimerEvent):void
  {counter += increment; counterText.text = counter.toString();if(counter>=upperlimit){timer.stop();}}
  
  
  

• Board for the dynamic text field problem

  I'm generating three text fields using an array of text data. The only text that appears is the content of the last element of the array. I have attached my code. Any ideas why three text fields are not created with the text inside elem table?
  
  Thank you!
  -Aaron
  

  These depths are not going to change, so each textfield replaces its predecessor. and then they all overlap because you do not change the ownership of the FLF to your textfields. (and your textformat object is not something useful, yet).

• Display of the results of calculation of data provided by the user in the dynamic text field

  Hi people,

  I am trampled on this one... Sorry...

  So, I'm working on a calculator, hitting a button, will display results based on the user data. I can get all the math to work OK, and he retraces perfectly.

  Now, the question becomes it to display on the fla itself.

  (The strange thing is, I had to keep all the data in the function. If I took it out, I would get all kinds of errors NaN and others. "But keep it within the service does the job very well.)

  What I'm missing here? I tried to do a total.set_Text = refundAmt; - but no luck. (The name of the instance to the box in the FLA file is 'total')

  Here is my code:

  ------

  trace_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showStuff);

  function showStuff (evtObj:MouseEvent): void {}

  var theSalary:Number = parseFloat (this ["inputSalary"] .text);

  var theDaysYouWorked:Number = parseFloat (this ["inputDaysYouWorked"] .text);

  var theEligibleDays:Number = parseFloat (this ["inputEligibleDays"] .text);

  var refundAmt:Number = theSalary * 0.005 / theDaysYouWorked * theEligibleDays;

  var lawyerFee20:Number = refundAmt * 0.80;

  var lawyerFee25:Number = refundAmt * 0.75;

  var lawyerFee30:Number = refundAmt * 0,70;

  var lawyerFee35:Number = refundAmt * 0.65;

  trace (refundAmt, "$" refundAmt.toFixed (2), "$" + lawyerFee20.toFixed (2), "$" + lawyerFee25.toFixed (2), "$" + lawyerFee30.toFixed (2), "$" + lawyerFee35.toFixed (2));

  }

  -------

  If I try to start another function, the results are not part of the scope, so I can't access it.

  Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

• Load the Image of the URL entered in the dynamic text box

  I have an area of dynamic text (image_in) to receive a URL entry of an image to be loaded into a clip (peak) when you press a button (b_load).

  I can't make it work, the code seems pretty simple:

  var image_url:String = image_in.text;

  b_load.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, Load_URL);

  function Load_URL(event:MouseEvent):void

  {

  var i = new Loader();

  i.Load (new URLRequest (image_url));

  pic.addChild (i)

  }

  This code gives me: #2044 Error: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. Text = Error #2035: URL not found.

  This code works when I declare the var as a URL:

  var image_url:String = " " http://website.com/image.jpg ";

  
  

  What is the difference if I go http://website.com/image.jpg in the dynamic text field? What's wrong?

  Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

  
  

  You declare the image_url variable after the dynamic text? If this isn't the case, then the value of this variable will be an empty string. Set the variable inside the function declaration, and it should work as expected.

• Dynamic text field showing only the number 2.

  I am writing a scrolling shooting game and I have a dynamic text field that keeps the score.  Running inside an ENTER_FRAME event listener, it updates all the images.  By tracing the variable "score", I get the good numbers appearing in the output tab, but on the screen, I see only the number 2. It doesn't matter what position in the number, it is (ie: 20, or 10372 or 521), this digit will be displayed.  If there is no number 2 in the partition, the field shows that the word "" Score: "."

  The variable is declared as such:

  var score: int = 0;

  "The text field is called scorecard and is set to"Classic text"and a dynamic text ' and it's 638 pixels wide (almost the entire width of the scene).

  Here's the code to update the scorecard:

  scoreCard.text = "Note:" + score.

  trace (score);

  The track was simply put in to see if the score was being counted until properly, what is.

  I also tried to eliminate "Score:" and simply used:

  scoreCard.text = score.toString ();

  and got the same results.

  Any ideas of what could be the cause?  From everything I've read, this method should work.

• Problems with the formatting of the dynamic text box

  I'm under the questions with the help of HTML formatting for a dynamic text field. I know these are weird and I can't understand how to get the formatting right.

  I have on my scene a dynamic text called «content_txt' inside a movie clip instance «content_mc» box When he enters the frame, I just broke down the "content_mc" of the alpha of 0 to 100 with a scenario animation. So that this works, I have to incorporate the police in my text field 'content_txt '. However, the only way I get get the HTML formatting to work is if I do not embed fonts.

  The dynamic text field is configured to render as HTML. In my layer actions, I put the text:

  this.content_mc.content_txt.htmlText = "<b>Hello world,</b> it is me again."

  In summary:

  1. If I do not embed fonts, the alpha fade does not work but HTML formatting doesn't.

  2. If I incorporate police, the alpha fade works but HTML formatting does not work.

  How to solve this? It's driving me crazy!

  then you're not g-d instructions.

  You should have two textfields.  the one on the boards that you started with and that incorporates your normal font (not bold).  and a slide that takes the same family of fonts with license "BOLD".  Repeat the test.

• Disable the scroll bar when the content is less than the viewport?

  Hello
  
  I have a vertical scroll bar has always shown (JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS).
  but I want that it should be disabled when the content in the display is lower at the height of the viewport.
  
  For example, browser Chrome in Windows: when you open Google, the content of the page is fairly low in height and scrolling in Chrome bar will be disabled. As soon as you have enough content on the page of the scrollbar will be active.
  
  How can I achieve this?
  Thank you

  Hello

  It isn't really a problem, I just know that it is a limitation of the SWING, (...)
  Almost all app have this behavior; It is not very nice visually.

  I don't have Chrome and haven't seen this problem until now, anywhere (but it is true, I'm way behind in terms of GUI mode).
  The behavior that I'm used to (and which Swing designers apparently supposed to be standard too), which is a scroll bar disappears when the width of the view does not justify it ( SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED ). Using SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS implies that you want to the scroll bar, no matter if the width of the merit. How the scroll bar looks like in this case sounds like a look and feel selection instead (I don't have older OSs, but maybe you know an operating system where this behavior is the norm? In this case, Yes, this is a limitation of the corresponding Swing L & F).

  Maybe there is a work around.

  Because this isn't the OS Lebanese armed forces, which can be "manually coded", by listeneing to resize events and thus change the appearance of the ScrollBar.
  Assuming that the "disabled" appearance scroll bar is what you are looking for (no idea, it's just an example, if that do not meet your needs, you can do something else in the placeholder code), here is one, certainly dense enough, workaround.
  Notice how the vertical and horizontal scroll bar is different (I applied workaround only to the latter).

• Why the letter spacing is ignored when running in dynamic text fields?

  I use dynamic text fields using the font Arial embeded in Flash 8 on Windows XP and when I set the letter spacing of 5, then run it film the spacing is lost. Tried with several other fonts and they always lose their spacing during execution.
  
  Why is this?
  
  Kevin

  it solved!

  You must reset the value linespacing in code after you put text, as follows:

  var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat() / used to change the color of the text
  Label.Text = "" Hello World ""
  my_fmt.letterSpacing = 1
  label.setTextFormat (my_fmt)
