• 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.

  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.

• Update of dynamic Action with the text box

  This goes along with: update records with the text box

  APEX: 4.0.2

  THEME: SAND

  SERVER: Oracle-Application-Server-10g/10.1.3.1.0 Oracle-HTTP-Server

  I created an example with more comments on the page:

  workspace: stevendooley34

  username: dev01

  password: dev01

  application: examples of Forum

  page: update example

  I've implemented just as I think it should be put in place, but records only updates by clicking on my Refresh"" button.

  Keep in mind that the example is found in the apex 4.2.5 but I will implement this in 4.0.2.

  Thank you

  Hi Steven,

  I think the main thing that was missing was adding the elements used in the PL/SQL "Page to go".

  The reason this is necessary is so APEX know what values of point on the browser should be sent (as part of the AJAX call) to the browser.

  IF you had all the elements that must be returned to the screen, then you will use the 'Page field items to return.

  I've also corrected a few things, P6 instead of P6 and P6_SEARCH_TYPE instead of SEARCH_TYPE, but they were just small "bugs" in the example.

  I also added another real action to refresh the report after the update.

  Thank you

  -Jorge

  PS. I do not validate that your code works for multiple, but the first glance entries and a quick test, it seems to work fine.  I focused only on the DA.

• Value display trace in the dynamic text box

  Hey just work on an exercise and I can't understand the code to display the value of the trace in a dynamic text box.

  The following code generates exactly where I am at this time.

  Import 12345678910111213import;

  import flash.text.TextField;

  Basic color picker (based pixel)

  var myColourBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData (500 400, false, 0xFFFFFF * Math.random ());

  var myColourBitmapImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap (myColourBitmapData);

  Add to list

  addChild (myColourBitmapImage); Add to the scene

  Get colors

  var pixelValue:uint = myColourBitmapData.getPixel (85,62); color of the pixel at X, Y

  displayed in the output window

  trace (pixelValue.toString (16)); toString (16) converts uint in a number of Hexadecimel format

  Here are a few screens, I want the values of trace output to appear next to the text in the dynamic text box

  

  

  I'm not sure of how to call the pixelValue to my text box, any help would be appreciated!

  Before or after the line that begins with «trace...» ' set dynamicTextFieldInstanceName.text = pixelValue.toString (16); Replace dynamicTextFieldInstanceName with the actual name that you gave to the dynamic textfield.

  There is an error in your output window. It seems that you have not integrated a font in the dynamic textField.

• How to get the name of the instance of button to display in the dynamic text box

  first of all, thank God for you people. Laughing out loud.
  
  Here is my scenario, I am the designer of consumate and learning coding by leaps and bounds, today its been a lot of stumbling blocks however.
  
  I have a site I designed that contains buttons that navigate the user at various points on the timeline using image tags. When they arrive at the appropriate image tag, they are presented with a movieclip containing two layers. The bottom layer is a card, and the top layer is a collection of buttons printer having a component tooltip on them showing you the information on detailed mouse printer on and takes you to the Remote UI printer on release. each button has a name of unique queue for the printer appropriate under its name of the instance (e.g. itm100_btn). Here's the jist... I want to be able to place a dynamic text box near the printer and using action script button it display printer queue name automatically simply based on the button, targeting, or even place the dynamic txt area inside the printer button mc. See, on some pages, there are like 24 printers... I'm AFRAID to have to put all these names in manually because there are total 150 printers! OUCH...

  Oh it is AS2.0 with Flash cs4
  
  In short... God bless you people... for the love of God someone help me? Laughing out loud.
  
  Thank you so much peoples!
  
  "I make things look purdy, but do not know why the sky is blue".

  to create a movieclip button:

  create a (insert/new symbol/movieclip) movieclip and attach a stop() to its first image and etiquette 'up '.  create any graphic you want for the up state button movieclip.  create a 'more' and, if necessary, a "low" setting

  When you place this button movieclip on stage give an instance name (for example, printer1) and use:

  {Printer1.onRollOver = Function ()}

  this.gotoAndStop ("over");

  }

  {Printer1.onRollOut = Printer1.onDragOut = Function ()}

  this.gotoAndStop ("up");

  }

  {Printer1.onPress = Function ()}

  this.gotoAndStop ("down");

  }

  and add your onRelease to do all that.

  If you also wanted to add a textfield that displays the instance name of the button when the button is postponed, place a textfield on the framework of the "over" and give it a name instance (say tf) and associated to the MovieClip "over" frame that uses:

  TF. Text = This._name;

• Formatting dynamic text (box) [AS2]

  Hello

  I have a button called B and a dynamic text box called T

  How can I make the text box

  (1) fill color change?

  (2) change font of a text?

  (3) to change the font style of the text to "BOLD" or regular?

  (4) to a line of color around the frame?

  To place the text in the frame to click the button I would use

  B.onRelease = function() {T.text = "foo"};

  Also is it possible to change the color of a button by clicking or by moving over it?

  I need to do this in AS2

  Thanks in advance

  To manipulate the font of the text in the textfield, you must use the TextFormat class and the setTextFormatmethod of the TextField.  The help documentation should have examples if you linger, and you should be able to find useful information by using Google.  Here is a link to the TextFormat class we have on the web: http://docs.brajeshwar.com/as2/TextFormat.html

  To change the characteristics of the textfield also far than go to background and border colors, the TextField class has properties to those that you can set.  Here is a link to the same site linked above, but for the information of class TextField.

• Smart txt reflow - how do you work with several text boxes?

  Hello

  I create ID cards to work, for 650 employees. I had used the reflow of text before smart on other jobs and I don't foresee any problems with its use for this project. To explain my problem:

  I'm doing a template with a trial of ten employees file. The design on each card, it is a name and a unique ID to be used. The name is 18pt and code 10pt.

  On my main page, I have a block of text for the name and a text block for the employee ID. The text blocks are as wide as the work plan but only high enough to adapt to a single name by image to the relevant point size.

  On the first page of my document, I select 'place' and then select the text file with all the names, I get the change of cursor in the image of the text, I hold SHIFT for the debit option and click on my name text box. InDesign automatically creates 9 new pages, and I now have a 10 page document. So far, perfect.

  I select "place" again, choose the employee code text file, click on my block of text in code used on the first page, and repeat the same process as above.

  My problem starts - I want codes for the employee to just flow through ten pages, as the names, but when I place the codes file and select the text on the first page, inDesign creates 10 new pages after the tenth page. So I find myself with 20 pages - the first ten pages with names and nothing in the code text boxes and the last ten pages with the codes but nothing in the name text boxes.

  I am at a loss as to why he does this. I was playing with the settings in the preferences, but nothing changes. I tried to select both the two text files and import at the same time.

  How do you work with several text boxes and several import of text file on a doicument? There are no extra spaces or something like that in my text files.

  I really don't want to have to link all text blocks - that will forever, but right now it's the only way I can get it to do what I want.

  Also, is there anyway to specify the font and the size of the text is important as? Because it keeps import as minion pro, even if the text boxes on the master are set to the correct font and size. Not a big deal though.

  Help, please! Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

  Ah, I think I misunderstood your original post and thought you wanted to do 10 badges per page. If it's only one, you need only a set of images. Same procedure for setting in place, but you have no need to screw anything or use the step and repaet to make copies.

  Place the file name in the frames of name and ID will add pages and then return to the first page and place the numbers. Just don't forget to put the bad slider in the space where the framework and to stay away from the guides (if you click on a guide, ID will ignore masters executives) and hold down the SHIFT key when you click.

• Definition of the size of the image in the dynamic text box

  I have a dynamic text box in which I'm embedding an image.  The following code fills the text box

  infoBox.informationText.htmlText=
       "<font size='16' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerIndex+
       "\n<font size='14' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerDate+
       "<img src='http://jacobull.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/ween.jpg'/>"+
       "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<font size='12' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerDescription;
  

  How set the size of the image in the code above.  I tried to insert the width and height parameters after the path of the image, but an error is generated.  I would like for the width of the image to be as wide as the text of infoBox.informationText Dynamics

  Any suggestions?

  Also the path to each image corresponds to a variable called calledMarkerContent how could put the img src is equal to the variable called calledMarkerContent?

  Hello J,

  If you use a component to scroll, you can eventually use the ScrollPane for movieclips instead.

  The Adobe AS2 components reference:

  " The ScrollPane component to view video clips, the JPEGs and SWFs in a scrollable area. Using a scroll pane, you can limit the amount of space occupied by these types of media screen. The scroll pane can display the content loaded from a local drive or on the Internet. You can set this content during programming and execution with ActionScript. "page 1093 "

  This way you could integrate the area of dynamic text (for your text) both the movieclip (which has the text for your image inside box) that you can then scale them both in an another movieclip (parent), you use the ScrollPane component on.

  This way your text in dynamic text field dimensionnera not, the image can be scaleed to the size of what ever you like (dynamically) and if the two are sitting in a parent movieclip, this parent movieclip may have a ScrollPane component on it.

  How does that sound?

  Best regards

• Can not do a numeric value displayed in a dynamic text box

  I'm attached to some appear in a dynamic text box. I have a dynamic textfield on the stage with an instance name called count_txt. The code I use is shown below. The two States of tace indicate a value of 100, but nothing appears in the window of dynamic text. What I am doing wrong?

  var count_txt:Number;

  var n: Number;

  n = 100;

  trace (n);

  count_txt = n;

  trace (count_txt);

  Stop();

  Text fields have a text property that you use to define the text in the field. And when you want to paste a number into the field, you first need to convert it to a string:

  count_txt. Text = string(n);

  trace (count_txt. (Text);

• Automatically change the size and have a fluid for dynamic text boxes

  I am seized of text from a thread xmle in the dynamic text boxes. I have boxes of static text that titles each.

  I need help to make the dynamic text boxes if the xml text is larger & move the static text boxes, so that they don't start writing more.

  The code that I used to make the text in the dynamic areas is very simple:

  var xmlData:XML = new XML ();
  var theURL_ur:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("xml.xml");
  var loader_ul:URLLoader = new URLLoader (theURL_ur);
  loader_ul.addEventListener ("complete", fileLoaded);

  function fileLoaded(e:Event):void
  {
  xmlData = XML (loader_ul.data);

  Dummy_txt. Text = xmlData.record1.Dummy;
  Dummy_txt2. Text = xmlData.record1.Dummy2;
  }

  For example

   

  You must set your dynamic text boxes autoSize property, while they will increase if necessary:

  myTextField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;

  Then, you can use the textHeight field property to get the height of the text in pixels and move the other fields accordingly:

  staticTitle2.y = dynamicText1.y + dynamicText1.textHeight + 10;

• Roll on the dynamic text boxes

  When I have a dynamic text box in a movie, and I want the movie she buttonMode. The hand symbol is converted to an arrow, even if the text is not selectable. Is there a way to get around this? It is not to do with a simple button... so I can put the text into a single button, but I expected something a little more forward.

  I do not see this behavior, but you can use the mouseChildren property to disable the children of your movieclip to respond to the mouse.

• How can I load a. In a dynamic text box TXT file?

  I'm sure that many people know how to load a .txt file in a dynamic text box. But I did not. I want to be able to reference a txt from the server file in the text box. So that when I change the text file it changes in the flash animation without even modifying the file flash itself. Thank you.

  If you want to follow this tutorial, you should go with the LoadVars class. not loadVariablesNum()
