Simple function to create ToolTip in Actionscript 3

Hello

I'm new to Actionscript 3 and I'm creating an application in which I need to use tooltips.  I thought it would be simple because in VBA and other object-oriented languages, you have a tooltip for a button and all property you need to enter the text (or even schedule it, which is very simple).  However, I can't seem to create tooltips in Flash using AS3, I tried 6 different methods (fairly complex) from code I found online but could get any of them to work.  Can someone please give me a simple function that takes as parameters the ToolTip text and the original button, then the right function creates the ToolTip automatically once it's called? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

If the two functions add and remove are on the same timeline you will not see this error message.  but I see typo:

create a buttonObj for all your buttons

var buttonObj:Object = {};

//////////////////////////////////////change nothing above ////////////////////////////////////

the next 3 lines must be made for all your buttons

buttonObj [yourbutton] = ['Hello', 2, 2];

yourbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, addToolTipF);

yourbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, removeToolTipF);

change nothing below.

function addToolTipF(e:MouseEvent):void {}

var a: Array = buttonObj [e.currentTarget];

var tf:TextField = new TextField();

buttonObj [e.currentTarget] .push (tf);

TF. Text = a [0];

TF. Multiline = false;

tf.autoSize = "left";

TF. Border = true;

addChild (tf);

TF.x = a [1] + e.currentTarget.x;

TF.y = a [2] + e.currentTarget.y;

}

function removeToolTipF(e:MouseEvent):void {}

removeChild(buttonObj[e.currentTarget][3]);

buttonObj [e.currentTarget]. splice (3,1);

}

  • Create quizzes very simple function

    Greetings,

    I tried to create a very simple function that records click on the buttons "right answer" and what right answers is 3, the user is taken on a label that has fine text on this. Nothing fancy, just by clicking on text (or should it be text converted to symbol?), which increments a variable and when it == 3 it goes to a label on the timeline.

    Here is the code I have... but it doesn't seem to work...

    i = 0;

    {sym.$("ques1Yesbtn","ques2Yesbtn","ques3Yesbtn"). Click (Function ()})

    i ++ ;

    If (I == 1) {}

    Q1 = 1;

    }

    If (I == 2) {}

    Q2 = 1;

    }

    If (I == 3) {}

    Q3 = 1;

    }

    var gotoFinishedLabel = q1 + q2 + q3;

    If (I == 3) {}

  • Simple function of CF, I can't write it!

    Hey guys,.

    I feel totally stupid, but I can't figure out how the code this very simple function. I use a piece of softare (salesforce) and he has two kinds of IDs, a tank of 15 and 18 tank. You can turn a tank fifteen in a tank 18 following this trueearnings.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    1. divide the 15 tank in 3 blocks of 5 characters each.

    2. for each give character this position with a value of 1 if in uppercase, 0 otherwise (lowercase or number).

    3. combine the bits of each piece into a 5-bit integer where the bit the most right is the most significant bit. This will get a number between 0 and 31 for each piece.

    4 build an array that contains the sequence of letters from A - Z and 0-5.

    5. use the integer of each piece to choose a character from the table.

    6. Add 3 characters that results, in the order of piece, at the end of the 15 char id.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    That's all I have to do. But I keep running into the stupid problems.

    Here is a link with more information and an example of chart

    Attached is my code, but for some reason any the table continues to try to treat the string to a number or something and sticks, some of the front of the number 1 instead of adding them as it should.

    Thanks to a bouquet.

    A few observations.  The first is the most important:

    (1) look carefully where you make your call reverse().  Are you sure that you do it in the right place?  You want to invert your string whenever you add to your piece, or you want to reverse your piece together once you have finished?

    (2) you should study the mid(), rather than make the combo right () /left () function.

    (3) always VAR your variables in a function.

    (4) I would not do this:

    Find (right (left(arguments.) SFID,(i-1) * 5 + j), 1), InUpper)

    I could do this:

    c = mid (arguments.sfid, ((i-1) * 5) + j, 1)

    Find ("^ $[A - Z]", c)

    5) rather than write the pieces in the form of binary numbers, reverse, then convert them in full, you could do this in one fell swoop.

    -in the first loop

    -ChunkTotal [i] the value zero

    -Have the loop internal, run from 5-1, not 1-5

    -instead of adding a 1 or a 0 to ChunkTotal [i], ADD this: 2 ^(j-1).

    -After the loop, you will have the integer you were after in the first place.

    Make sense?

  • Function for creating several fields of text through ActionScript

    I am trying to create multiple dynamic text fields and tries, unsuccessfully, to get a function that manages the base more easily implemented. Here's what I have so far:

  • Using to create tooltips for status bar icons

    Does anyone know if there is an easy way, maybe a library I can use to create tool tips that I can use to bring up the information next to my system tray icon?  Or is it something that I have to dive into the SDK to do?  Thanks in advance!

    Hey tstanley-

    CVI does not provide an API to create one of these balloon popups.  However, many other tasks to icon tray can be accomplished with functions in the Toolbox of the programmers.  It is an excellent example that illustrates these functions named Trayicon.

    To create the balloon popup you speak, you're either going to have to manage the API icon by yourself, or make some changes to the toolbox.c source code, because some necessary Manager functions are not exported.  Use this as a reference, I added a few lines of code to toolbox.c (without any verification for clarity of errors) to display a very simple balloon popup.  Let me know if you have any questions.

  • A different function is created instead of the expected (table Index instead of initialize array) Labview - a 8.5

    Hey all,.

    I have a really strange behavior here. I'm using LabView 8.5. I open a white VI and try to use the function "initialize the array.

    No matter where and how I find (using search functions, or by accessing the 7.x-> table-> table initialize function), when I drag and drop it off at my VI, what I get is "Array Index" instead!

    Even when I hover over the icon table inside the palette is initialized, with aid switched on (Ctrl + H), what I see is the help page for table of Index. It's as if somehow the index table replaced function Initialize array entirely, with the exception of the simple icon in the palette...

    I tried to restart Labview and my computer nothing works.

    Someone at - he never experience a similar problem? that means, one different function other than for being created. I have attached a screenshot.

    Thank you

    -Anne Marie

    Thanks for your replies.

    My palette is screwed a bit isn't it? Most likely because the installation I chose a bunch of older versions in favor... and I regret it now.

    Funny enough, during the search in the functions that it only brings me version 7.x of functions of table etc... but I can manually find the standard in my palette, and of course, version 8.5 standard functions seem to work...

    I need to finally do an install of cean, but for now, it's all good!

  • Error with the function "Open/create/overwrite file" with cancel button

    I have attached a very simple VI who embodies what I want to do with my function to open the file. I just want to stop the rest of my program (theoretically embedded in the Structure box) to run if the user deigns to do not to specify a file location.

    However, if you click on the button cancel an error is produced before the rest of the program is running. If ignore you the error and continue, the "canceled" properly true made variable and the Structure of business runs correctly. "" I just want to remove the error message given to me by LabVIEW.

    Any ideas on why or how?

    Read the help of LabVIEW on automatic error handling.

    In your case, you can just wire the output of cluster of error to the structure of your business.

  • generation of functions to create channels of AO

    I'm trying out a sinusoidal signal through a USB-6211 using this task Create Channel. I can't find a single example of using this function once the task has been created. All the 17 examples provided by OR use the adjustment of the tension of the AO create and must use an external function generator. Examples exist on how to use this thing? List of specifications of USB - 6211 BTW ' AO waveform modes:

    "Non-periodic waveform.

    "Periodic regeneration mode waveform of FIFO aboard"

    I don't know what the previous alternatives that seem to indicate that it is capable of producing waveforms, unlike other queries that came during my search for previous question.

    Hi walter donovan,.

    Only two devices support .vi DAQmx Create Channel (AO-FuncGen): NI ELVIS II and NI ELVIS II +, which have a function dedicated to the hardware level generator. You cannot use the channel type of the generation of AO functions with any other device. Sorry for the confusion.

  • Simple IO with creating a new user

    I followed the "createdeleteuser.seq" and add to the menu of the tool through the action "custom".

    He said that when I build a deployment, this menu item will be in the user interface.

    However, I use the simple "OI" and it didn't not a menu bar, how do I createdeleteuser

    in the "simple OI '?

    Hi trout00,

    You have two options. I propose an option for a clean and professional look.

    1 follow the implementation of the LabVIEW Menu in the example of the all-in-one user interface. The full feature user interface implements a menu similar to the bar bar in the TestStand sequence editor.

    2. create a normal button of LabVIEW on IO and implement the case of the event below for when the button is pressed. I placed the occurrence on the Simple OI - first level VI.

    Hope this helps trout00.

    For example,.

    415 Q4-WK1352201530/09/2015

    I would like to create a full year for each day of show week quarter Qtr/year/QtrWk, exercise, exercise from 01/10/2015-09 30, 2016.

    Appreciate your help and advice.

    Thank you

    AMan

    Hi AMan,

    can't answer your question with a detailed requirement.

    No doubt a whole year can be created in a SQL statement (CONNECT BY or the recursive subquery factoring) and is not a problem.

    But I would like to ask you the following:

    • How do you get the week number? There might be a different way to look at it (ISO or not, week starting with the Sun, Mon or the first day of the year, etc.)
    • The same question can be applied to the financial week. When it's the first week? 01/10/2015 until 10/07/2015?

    You can have a quick glance at the definition of different week in 'Model of Format of Date' on this page:

    https://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/sql_elements004.htm
