  How cumbersome is to fill text blocks 300 over 300 pages with it?

  Or is it not?

  Text frames can be useful, and they can also get on your way. If you do not need the ability to change things on all pages of the document by editing the main storyline, you might be better to not use main text blocks.

  That said, if you do want to use master text frames you shouldn't be releasing the main frame to the document (by Command-Shift clicking) page on the first page and then adding the placeholder text him. This is what it looks like you do, and that's why you don't get what you want. What you need to do is to make the first placeholder text and then place. Who will release the master images on existing pages or create new pages if you start with a one page document.

  To generate the placeholder text, start with a new document. What I'm doing, it of make a block of text that fills the full editing table, click inside the text cursor and change the font to something very small (like text 1pt with automatic line spacing). Then change the text block to get the number of columns (maybe 10, maybe 25, it's up to you). Now fill the frame with the placeholder text. The additional columns will allow more text, because to this font size, some paragraphs will not fill the framework if it is a single column. If you want a very large amount of text, select all, copy and paste them twice or more. Once your text has been generated, all select, copy, move to the actual document and paste it into a block of small text on the pasteboard. Now apply the paragraph style, you want to have text (which I suppose is in a readable size).

  If you click the out port of this text block and shift-right click in the master on the first page of the document (that you didn't him don't have not already unlocked), it will be auto-flux in all the master text frames on existing pages or create new pages as it goes if he needs. I think that's what you wanted to do from the start. Write might be a lot of work, but it really only takes a minute.

• Fill with placeholder text does not

  My order of "Fill with placeholder text" no longer works.  No text only inserted when I select the command. (He used to work. I used it a lot.) I have read on the substitution.txt file and made my own and place in the InDesign Application folder, following the instructions that I found on one of the forums.  I can see the file, and it is named correctly. But I still get all inserted text.  It seems that something is broken. It's like InDesign does not see the substitution.txt file, even if it's in the right place. (I use CS5.1). Does anyone have a suggestion as to what might happen? Thanks in advance for any help!

  I have to fill with placeholder text works again. In my opinion, it may have been something fishy with the sequence of several frames on the line that has been not to let the text get inserted. I'm embarrassed to say that I did not sufficiently stable before that I blamed the control. I did learn some things, however, and appreciate the advice I got.

• Problem with dynamic text

  Hello, all.

  I'm having trouble with dynamic text not displaying only not on the scene during execution.  When I test the scene, fields of text but loading, but when I test the movie, or run publish a snippet, the text is not there.  Some figures appear unstable in the text fields, but are often completely empty. --J' did ensure that the fonts have been included and I can't understand why this is happening.

  Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Try another font which has called to work correctly, such as Arial and see if you still have the problem. Not all fonts can be embedded correctly...

• Weird problem with dynamic text

  Hello

  I created a dynamic text field - mediaImportName001 (created and it contains the name of a file that I have chosen to import them using a browser (as3 and AIR) button.)

  It works very well - I can import the file, and the name appears in the field.

  I would now like to pass the content of the text field to another text field.  But I'm not content. If I try to find the contents of the textField trace("mediaImportName"+thisNum).text - Flash returns "undefined" (even though I'm him asking to draw once the field has been filled).

  I use the following code to check that the material is really there and named correctly (the code returns the children):

  for (var i: uint = 0; i < this.numChildren; i ++) {}
  trace (this.getChildAt (i) .name + "\t type:" + typeof (this.getChildAt (i)) + "\t" + this.getChildAt (i));
  }

  It returns:

  object: type instance370 [object, form]
  object: type mediaImportName001 [TextField object]
  object: type mediaFiletype001 [TextField object]

  How can I get Flash to give me the text in mediaImportName001?

  It's weird - this.getChildAt (i) .name

  from above gives me...

  mediaImportName001,

  yet

  trace (['mediaImportName' + thisNum] .name);

  returns undefined (thisNum represents an increment I used to name several clips and text fields and in this case trace (thisNum); return 001)

  Any ideas why this happens?

  Thank you

  No logic problem, just a problem with describing the problem (as far as the fix goes) and using the property name (as far as the issue goes).  There is a difference between the creation of a dynamic textfield (a type of textfield) and dynamically a textfield (using code to create).

  In AS3, the name property is a property and it is not the same as the name of the instance that you can assign to an object on the stage.  To target an object using its name property, you must use the getChildByName() method, or alternatively, you can use the variable you used to create it.  You may need to cast as a TextField object as well as to operate...

  trace (TextField (this.getChildByName ("mediaImportName" + thisNum)). (Text);

  which would produce the same result as the use of...

  trace (mediaImportName.Text);

  I don't know how the numbering disperses on "001", but you might find it easier to work with by storing just the instances of an Array by using the media_file_num to set the index where they get.  Then, you would be able to target the textfield to help...

  trace (tfArray [thisNum]. (Text);

• ScrollPane + problem with dynamic text.

  Hello

  I use the ScrollPane component to display a movieclip that contains text. So far, I went to a few paragraphs, with the text field defined on "Static text"... but as I wrote a few more I noticed that the text box displays only half of my text. So I went to the "dynamic text", which solves the problem of display and get 100% of my text but now I always displayed onstage, even if it is available in the library... strange!

  Could somone help me please?

  Kind regards

• Newb needs help with dynamic text

  Hello world
  
  I'm not a newb - but that's how...
  
  I am trying to create a multi-page form that allows uses to register the products.
  The first page asks you name etc., and on the second page, I want to say "Welcome"+ username "!" -This kind of thing...
  The problem is that I can't seem to keep the values of dynamic text through the pages.
  
  I can get it to repeat the entry on the first page with this code:
  
  _root.firstname_txt. OnChanged = function() {}
  _root.firstname_repeat. Text = "Hello"+ _root.firstname_txt.text; "
  };
  
  However when I call on the second page it is not defined:
  
  second_repeat. Text = "Hello"+ _root.firstnamt_txt.text; "
  trace (_root.second_repeat.text);
  
  I'm sure it's something simple and I am just a dunce of programming...
  Any help is appreciated.
  
  your

  If your textfield (_root.firstname_repeat) does not exist on the 2nd frame, its text property will be indefinite.

  to remedy, or extend the existence of your textfield in frameworks or use a variable to store its text property (in your manager onChanged) and use this variable to retrieve the value you need.

• Length of command line with dynamic text

  Hello
  
  Does anyone know how to control the length of a line with a dynamic text input?
  
  I have two buttons, which increases the value of a dynamic text of 1 every time that it is pressed and another which decreases. The display shows the number that results. I want to draw a line that increases or decreases in length with that number.
  
  Any ideas?
  
  Thank you!

  Well, you could take a text field value and multiply it by a constant for the length of your line. Once you have this number, you can draw the line dynamically using the drawing API or change the width of a movieclip with a line in...

  Let's say you have a movieclip with an instance name of line_mc and your dynamic text field has an instance name of myTextField, you can change the width of the line_mc like this:

  line_mc._width = number (myTextField.text) * 10;

• Help with dynamic text and cursor hand

• Conditional support with dynamic text video. IF... else...

  I have two dynamic texts, both of them will generate numbers. If we have a value that is larger than this, a clip must be loaded, moreover, another video clip needs to be charged.

  If they are dynamic, you change the text of textfield properties, so when you make a change, compare two numbers and use:

  If (Number (Text1.Text)<>

  MC = new MovieClip1();

  } else {}

  MC = new MovieClip2();

  }

  addChild (mc)

• reversal of button with dynamic text animation

  So I have a button that I want to be able to use again and again. When you hover over the button, it made an animation and has an area of dynamic text in it. Ovbiously im trying to make each of these different texts for each button. What would be the smarter way to go about this? Thank you

  you don't know.  You can add a movieclip to highest setting and this movieclip could contain a textfield.  you just give the textfield instance name (say tf) and give the movieclip that is increasingly framing an instance name (say mc).  You can use:

  gotoAndStop ("over");

  e.currentTarget.mc.tf.text = "whatever";  p. s.  you will have to wait for a render event to trigger after the goto statement to tf is instantiated.

• Tween alpha with dynamic text

  Hello!
  
  When I do next...
  1 dynamic Text: the text should be editable in ActionScript
  2. graphic: contains an Imagearriereplan and dynamic text.
  3 MovieClip: Contains a Tween alpha between the graph above.
  dynamic text is not mix on, the fact of the Imagearriereplan. (in exported movie, ctrl + enter)
  However in the previewmode (pressing enter) the text is mixture out.
  
  My question is: is it possible to mix a text? I think that some time ago I saw an ActionScript command to do so. But I want to tell an interpolation of alpa.
  And why it works in previewmode (enter) and not in the exported sequence (ctrl + enter)?

• problem with dynamic text and input box area

  

  I'm doing a login to a game screen.  I imported the background image added 5 text boxes and 2 buttons

  the top one is dynamic and is supposed to show the message.   The user name or password is incorrect, as shown in the trace, but it's what appears instead.

  the two boxes on the left are static and seem to work well.

  2 boxes on the right are the input boxes for the user to enter their user name and password, but the alpha only characters that they allow a d e m n o p r s u w.

  all other characters alpha get ignored. and you n p are always in the capital.

  I realize that the only letters that seem to be allowed are letters in the username and password, but I have no idea why this is happening.

  Here is the code for the connection.

  Stop();

  import flash.events.MouseEvent;

  import flash.ui.Mouse;

  import flash.display.MovieClip;

  import flash.events.Event;

  import flash.display.Stage;

  loginbtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, connection);

  function login(event:MouseEvent)

  {

  If (usernametxt.text == "u" & & passwordtxt.text == "p")

  {

  gotoAndPlay (2);

  }

  on the other

  {

  messagetxt. Text is a String ("the user name or password is incorrect");.

  trace (messagetxt. (Text)
