Limit of characters in the text field (multiline). Is this true or am I dreaming?

• Immediate change in the limit of characters of the text field?

  I have a PDF form that I try to do more foolproof. When a user enters his credit card number, I want to check the first two numbers to see which kind of card it is (Visa/MasterCard/American Express) and select the radio suitable for them, as well as limit the number of digits that can be entered in the credit card number field. I found it for the most part, but it seems that change the limit of characters (charLimit) in the card number field is not actually take place until focus leaves the field, then comes. Here is the code I have so far, in the property Custom hits Script on the tab Format for this field:

  event.rc = /^\d*$/.test(event.change);
  
  
  var thisField = event.target;
  var amexTest = /^3[47]/;
  var mcTest = /^5[1-5]/;
  var visaTest = /^4/;
  var firstTwo = event.value.slice(0,2);
  var ccButtons = getField("Credit Card Buttons");
  if (amexTest.test(firstTwo)) {
      thisField.charLimit = 15;
      ccButtons.value = "AMEX";
  } else if (mcTest.test(firstTwo)) {
      thisField.charLimit = 16;
      ccButtons.value = "Master Card";
  } else if (visaTest.test(firstTwo)) {
      thisField.charLimit = 19;
      ccButtons.value = "Visa";
  }
  

  It seems that my code pasted a bit cut off near the end for a reason, but I think that it is enough to show what I want to happen. Because this script is executed at every keystroke, and then after the first two characters are typed, I want to limit the number of characters for what is appropriate for this type of card. This should help a little to what people mistyped their number. However, as I said, the change isn't actually place until focus leaves and enters this area.

  What can I do to make the immediate change?

  I don't think that you can not do it like that, but you don't need to. As you are already using a script of the event in the sequence of keys, you can check the length of the text and then reject the strikes if it is too long.

• 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?

• Is there a limit of characters of the text?

  Hello

  I'm doing a display of points to use as an Alpha channel.

  I want to be able to change the points system according to the sequence as, change the resolution if you want

  But repetition take a line and just move down and the lateral shift was too boring.

  I don't think you should be 4000 layers you .ai file, alone with 4000 points the CR value...

  Also, you can set up a Repeater of only x shape, then set up another only in there. It looks like this:

  

• How to allow the user to enter only alpha numeric characters in the text field?

  Hello

  Is it possible to restrict the user to enter only alpha numeric characters in the textfiled?

  Thank you

  Starting from the version 4.7, I don't see any how useful filter adapted to your needs.  Then why don't you override keyChar() like this:

  EditField eField = new EditField("Enter letters and digits only: ", "") {
      protected boolean keyChar(char ch, int status, int time) {
          if (CharacterUtilities.isLetter(ch) || CharacterUtilities.isDigit(ch) || (ch == Characters.BACKSPACE)) {
              return super.keyChar(ch, status, time);
          }
          return true;
      }
  };
  

  I have not tested this code, but you can give it a shot...

  You can add a manipulation (or super.keyChar...) for Characters.ENTER and Characters.ESCAPE, as well as anything else you be useful, such as the comma and the period.

  Hope this helps,

  Arkady.

  Edit: added Characters.BACKSPACE - you want to change, not you?

• Does anyone know if you are limited in the number of characters in the text field?

  I have the scrolling text of the distant rear side right up to the edge on the left front. I only get to halfway through the message of full text and letters are mixed at the any end. is there a limit on the number of characters I can use? Is there a setting a limitation I can increase?

  It seems to be. I figured it at approximately 16000 characters more or less (or even lower). (Estimated from the original character TextEdit limit as it seems to be this type of core service text text handling in movement and FCPX.)  I drew this conclusion during the development of a method to create a movement subtitles. It finally turned out that I had to cut the scripts into pieces 'chapter of size' to keep the character countdown. I never got to finish this tutorial and it has been quite some time now (and I can't not find my notes on the subject). It could be that the number of characters estimated is actually lower.

  There is no way to reset the limit.

• Limit the first character in the text field to the letter and numbers?

  How can I limit only the first character entered in the text field as the letter H (uppercase) or any number? Thanks in advance.

  function of validateMemberID was a mistake on my part misnamed it. I thought about it...

  At the level of the JavaScript document

  Allow only characters that match the regular expression
  function validatePartialMemberId (value) {}
  return / ^ [H0-9]?\d{0,10}$/.test(value);
  }

  function validateFullMemberId (value) {}
  return / ^ [H0-9]\d{10}$/.test(value);
  }

  function checkMemberId() {}
  Get all of the characters that the user has entered
  var value = AFMergeChange (event);

  Allow the land to be developed
  If (! value)
  return;

  If (! event.willCommit) {}
  Event.RC = validatePartialMemberId (value);
  }

• How to: Extract the first three characters of a text field

  Greetings-
  
  What is the best method to extract the first three letters of a text field?
  
  I need to extract the first three letters of a text field (surname in this case),
  so I add other components to create an identification number for
  a person.
  
  This identification number which must be created consists of the
  date of the person by birth, last 4 digits of social security number and
  the first three letters of the person's first name.
  
  Example:
  == > Date of birth: 15/11/45
  == > Last 4 SSN: 6654
  == > Name: Smith
  
  Identification number would be:
  == > 1115456654SMI
  
  Leonard B
  
  
  

  That should do the trick:

  I put your values in the variable, simply replace the names, according to the needs
  
  
  

  This removes all the string of the / your birthday (if it's a string!) and puts it in the variable id:
  

  It takes the 4 last letters/digits of your social security number string and adds it to the id:
  

  It takes the first thre letters/numbers from your last name variable, capitalizes and adds to the identification string
  

  It will be useful.

• Problem with anti-aliasing on the text fields scrolls

  I am building an application using FlashBuilder and currently running on the latest version of Mac OS x, and test my application in the anti-discrimination Act.  I see the strangest problem; I have a large window, and I use scrollrect to view different parts of the window. When I set the scrollrect and it works very well, the window scrolls to the top just as you expect. But "BOLD" text on the screen becomes much more ugly after I scroll.  I tried to set CacheAsBitmap on the sprite containing that scrolls, but that has no effect. It affects the text that could be in the middle of the window and just move upward, slightly; all of the characters in the text has ruined the subpixel antialiasing.

  Is it a weakness known use ScrollRect? How can I work around this problem?  I tried to turn on cacheasbitmap for all my sprites, but nothing has changed. I tried to set the AntiAliasType my TextField in ADVANCED, but which has also had no effect.

  It is confusing to me, why the rendering is so bad after a scroll. Even when I go back to its original position (scroll down, then upward), the text is ugly. It's almost as if he shot it twice on the screen, but it's probably just a lower level of text rendering.

  Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  I've identified the problem. It is caused by a bug in my code, which is the double drawing of text on the other fields. When you have a large font size which is antialised, when you draw a second copy on the top, the aliasing allie to ruin the sweetness of the police. It is the only clue you double drew an object! Very interesting question in vector graphics, can not say once easily when you drew something twice!

• Formula to add a blank space before the text field or pattern.

  I need model when I write something in the text field to provide an empty space at the beginning.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can use a view model, but she would get very long if your field allows many characters, so for a 4-character field, you can use;

  text {' ' X} | text {' ' XX} | text {' ' XXX} | text {' ' XXXX}

• Allow numbers in the text field

  Hi all

  I want to allow numbers in the text field using the BACKSPACE and delete keys to change.

  --> the code below does not allow alphabets but when I type a character in-between the numbers I add.

  -> and the other question is, if I select all of the text in the text field and press on any non-numeric key (for example: alphabets or special characters) it adds, but if I select all the text and if I type in the text box it won't add them.

  
  

  for example: I have 253 typed in the textfield If I try to type the alphabets it will not add

  but when I type in between the figures he adds 25java3

  CODE:

  public void changed (ObservableValue <? extends number > observable, oldValue, newValue number number) {}

  If (newValue.intValue () > oldValue.intValue ()) {}

  char ch = allocatevaluesText.getText () .charAt (oldValue.intValue ());

  System.out.println ("length:" + oldValue + "" + newValue + "" + ch);

  Check if the new character is the number or other

  If (!) () ch > = '0' & & ch < = '9')) {}

  If it's not previous number then just setText

  allocatevaluesText.setText (allocatevaluesText.getText () .substring (0, allocatevaluesText.getText () .length () - 1));

  }

• How to validate the number of characters in the text entry box?

  Hello

  I have inserted a text box entry and assigned a variable (UserName). Now, I need to limit the entry of a number, maxinum of 20 characters. In other words, how can I validate the number of characters in the text entry area and provide feedback if it is more than 20 characters?
