Show border around text when unknown length

Hello

I'm hoping to get a nice rounded rectangle around text (label) on playbook, the width of the bubble is fixed, but the height depends on the length of the displayed text.

How would I know how high to set the label itself and also the height of bubble border when using wordwrap?

Concerning

Have you tried the textWidth and textHeight attributes. Sometimes, you may need to add a padding of these. If you need it is more accurate, there's an API for that.

  • Flash Pro CS5 shows does not text when I test movie/export... only on the stage.

    Exactly what the subject says. I am a novice and regardless of how I export the thing (such as a picture or a movie and in any format), I can't see the text. It's particularly frustrating, because the text is the entire basis of my animation.

    Tried to convert text to clips, no difference. The weird part is, I could test the thing early on with no problem - text displayed and any. I should add: I have used SEVERAL fonts... and I think it was when things started does not.

  • When turned on my laptop, there is a black border around the screen.

    Original title: screen resolution problem

    Hello

    A few weeks ago, I turned on my laptopn and there was a black border around the screen. I managed to change the screen resolution, but my laptop seems to think that I have a dual monitor? And my resolution is still not like it was before. Obviously this isn't a huge problem, but it's annoying to have to go and change it regularly.

    In addition, given that this has started to happen, I noticed that when I turn on my laptopn, instead of the usual Acer / Windows startup screen, the screen is all black, until the login screen appears. I don't know if this is related or how, once again, this isn't a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but if an update is installed, you do not see the progress it's making!

    I ran a system restore, without success.

    Running Windows 7 on a laptop Acer Aspire. Any suggestions welcome, although I'm not that tech-savvy!

    Thank you

    Hello

    The first thing to check is your theme controls. Go to the control panel and select personalization. When this window opens, go down and select wallpaper. When this window opens go to the lower left corner and make sure that the background that position of the image is set to 'bridge '. Save the changes and return (right click on the name of the theme in the theme dialog box).

    Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

    Thanks for the replies. In the end, I found the method simple to solve this problem was to create a simple bitmap image and add to the screen where I want the border.

  • How can I get rid of the black border around my screen?

    After an update, my screen resolution changed for no reason. Tried to change, but now I have a black border around my screen that I can't get rid of.

    Hello

    Windows Update will sometimes offer you updates of graphics drivers; NEVER accept them.

    Only go graphics drivers of your computer or the manufacturer of the graphics Web site map.

    Go to the website of your computer manufacturer > drivers download Section > then key in your computer model number > find your operating system > find two graphics / video or from the Chipset drivers and download and install.

    Then try to change the screen resolution.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Here is the information on the Windows updates.

    Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.

    You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.

    But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.

    You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:

    'Remove an update'

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

    When you have found the issue of update of the list of updates which is presented > then right click on the update problem > select Hide update > and it will not be available to you once again

    "Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

    Or the other of these two update settings will give you the chance to see what you want to install through Windows updates;

    Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

    Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

    But remember you normally only have problems with hardware 3rd party drivers. Other updates are to improve the Performance and security of your system

  • Dell Inspiron 5547 black border around screen

    Hello

    I have problems with my laptop Dell 5547. There are about 1 cm border around the screen that did not exist before and I noticed now that my taskbar are settled 1 cm upward, but when I put google chrome in full screen it sort of chops to the top bar downwards a little.

    I noticed through google searches other people have had similar problems with Dell laptops, but I can't seem to find a solution because that whenever I have try to disable the scaling of display 'maintain' it won't let me turn it off.

    The product from the video has the same black border.
    It may not be "' fixed"»
    Some of these pictures seem to be which is a pretty poor form, but the screen size and resolution are as promised.
    Personally, I would have liked a smaller portable set, but if it had to be this size, then I'd rather small dials and a black border, than the large slabs of plastic from all sides. It makes it look better when sound off and I do not notice it that much.

    I also heard people say that it is do with touch functionality? Maybe it gives you a better ability to slide into the sides... I do not know.

    Yet, there is nothing wrong with your laptop. If it's a breeze for you deal, you may have a decent argument under the laws of the consumer to get a refund. They can't really show pictures that hide and make the screen appear larger is it. But the video is here, and the specifications are all honest.

  • labelfield not showing on screen text

    Hello

    I have the following behaviors on a label field added to a VerticalFieldManager.

    When the text on the label is greater(in heigth) the screen of the device, it assumes this 2 x times the height of the screen, a part of the text is not displayed because when scroll us to the bottom of the screen it cams directly at the end of the VerticalFieldManager. In this way we see that the first and the last part of the label, do not show all of the text of the label.

    I searched the forum for "scroll bars", but I have not found anything that could help me...

    Comment from arkadyz is the key to this:

    To scroll programmatically, use setVerticalScroll of your Manager and substitution, for example, navigationMovement for the user that controls. Search this forum for ideas - setVerticalScroll looks like a token of good research in your case.

    A labelField is not active by default.  so focus will jump over to below it.  On a touchscreen device is not a problem, because you can scroll without moving the cursor.  But when using the trackpad, it is a problem.

    Your best bet is to convert the labelField one RichTextField, make sure it is active, then development will move through the field and you will be able to move down one line at a time.

    Otherwise, take a look at this article that shows scrolling around another non-active field:

  • Thickness of border with text.

    Took a few minutes to get on the internet before I asked this, no nothing. IM playing with astetics with my project and im trying to change the thickness of the border on a textbox control that is generated.

    Is it possible to change the thickness of line?

    Do you mean the border when you create a dynamic field, then click the 'See the border around the text' in the properties? If so, you can not change that. But you can just draw yourself...

    As an example you have a field called myText, on stage:

    var s:Shape = new Shape();

    s.graphics.lineStyle (2, 0xff0000);

    s.graphics.drawRect (myText.x, myText.y, myText.width, myText.height);

  • Border around library item?

    I want to change my web pages CSS and delete the entire table that I have now. What I can and how to make a border around a library item? Look like this when complete:

    http://www.kitchyglass.com/forsale/everything/everything.html

    Thank you.

    Continued good

    I'm happy that I didn't missed the point completely.

    To quickly explain what I did.

    First of all, there is a wrapper

    .  Who is given a width in CSS (which is in the top of the page and finally, if it were me, I would move to a style sheet).  It also has a margin: 0 auto.  That's what the content of the centres.

    Then inside the package, there are three columns.  They are given float: left and a width, and makes them all the sit-by-side.

    Each of your objects are placed inside the own div and who benefits from a class.  When you use CSS you can use class and id in the selectors to target very precisely where you want the styles to apply.  You can use only a single instance of an id by page, but a class can be used in many items.

    I thought about your page and I have another suggestion for you.  It's here: martcol.co.uk/test/kitchenlist.html

    It's the same structure but I used a list sorted and given to each item one item

    .  Now, you'll be able to this style quite freely, and it looks a bit ugly.

    I also took the ebay link off whatever it was on front and included it as a separate list item.  Take a look and you'll see.  Just to show you another possibility for lists, I used a bullet on the right column only.

    The reason why I thought I might suggest a list is because it seems to me that you had written each description in list form, and he also felt that each front-line resembled a title or a title.  When you move away from using based tabular presentation, one of the main things you do is using semantic code or start.  It is always best to use HTML elements for their intended purposes.

    • for bulleted lists,.

      for the paragraph.

      for a division, for emphasis andfor ah hem, tables.  It helps organize your code, with pages that validate and it is also good for SEO.

      Anyway, see what you think.

      Just one thing.  Have you heard of Firbug?  This is a free plugin for the Firefox browser and it will help teriffic to your learning and development HTML and CSS.  It helps you to look at your code and find how all CSS fits in.  It gives a view in the browser of the DOM, and you can also modify the code 'live' to test ideas before you Board for them in your actual page.

      Hope that all of the senses.

      Martin

      This position got a bit heavy with my ramblings.  It may be a good idea to mark it as answered and start another thread on the thing in the library item.  If you want to continue with this at the same time, I am happy to keep in touch here and try and explain more, but my time here is a bit uneven.  I am an amateur and my day job and distribution are also cruel mistresses!
