Using EventListeners with conventional text objects

I created 4 classic text objects and called Butt1 through Butt4.

That's if I can change the text in the code at any time.

I want to create an event listener to pick up when the user

(a) mouse over Butt1, etc..

(b) mouse out of Butt1, etc..

(c) clicks on Butt1, etc..

In each case, I will define a function to perform actions when the

button is on, twitch or quiver clicked.

AddEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);  doesn't seem to have parameters (AFAIK)

to point to Butt1, etc.

How this is done?

Probably a basic question and befuddles me.

Thanks for help.

TextField formatting properties are in the TextFormat property:

  • Help with two text objects which are spaced closely shadow effect...

    Hi all


    I have 2 text objects, the two effects of shadows drop applied, as they are spaced closely, his shadow effect is quite visible on another text as its white colored text...


    What should I do if the two text will be clearly visible / no drop shadow effect to a text on another?

    Thanks for taking a peek @ the question...

    Vish...

    If you put the text layer that has shadow top above the layer which is the cause, it will go away.

    If the effects of two layers are performing each other then you just put one on the other.  You need to go and fix it manually.  There are two ways to do this:

    (1) in the menu effects for shadows check the box that says 'layer mask hides effects '.  Then create a layer mask and simply hide the shadow where you don't want to.

    (2) put the layer with the shadow in a group and put on a mask of clipping on the group.  You can then paint in the shade.

    Stamp 3) visible, then layer mask.

  • Failed to create a mask for clipping on 3 separate text objects

    Hi all

    I created a custom, text so that each letter in my 3 letter word is a separate compound object.

    Now, I did a full ellipse (with gradient) and a rectangle behind text to create a clipping with all text objects 3 mask. (see image1)

    However, when I select all the objects and select: object > clipping mask > make, they do hide the letter, which is the one on top. (see image 2)

    However, when I combine the 3 letters, it does not create a clipping mask at all, it shows nothing... (see picture 3)

    How can I ake all the 3 letters be in the mask?

  • Capture of variable of presentation in a dash of the text object

    Hi all

    I have three requests on a dashboard page and you want to display a common title (the dashboard page name) for this page. As such, I would like to capture, the value of the variable presentation. for example

    The dashboard page name - year - @{PV_YEAR} {} - week - @ {{PV_WEEK}}. This will serve as the title of the page dashboard, other than securities of individual request.

    I tried key by using the dashboard of text object, but could not find happiness. Is it possible to capture variable presentation in a dash of the text object?

    I can capture this variable of presentation for the title of individual applications and display three times on the dashboard page. But as it's the same title, I want to display only once.

    Has anyone done any workaround? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thanks and greetings

    Aniket

    Hi Aniket,

    I'm surprised that with the presentation in an object variable text on a dashboard does not work.
    It works for me...

    But if you can not solve, you can create a separate report with only the columns of the year and the week and filter these columns on the variable of presentation.
    Use only the narrative view, and then delete all the other views.

    Kind regards

  • Encompassing sit text object set level with the actual text?

    I noticed a problem (probably I'm not the first) with Illustrator where any attempt to distribute text boxes autour and object, or even vertical relative to the other alignment is not working everything simply because for one of the object bounding boxes two text will be much bigger and wider than the actual text.

    I'm looking at a vector image of a plane in the project I am working on and framework encompassing is at the same level on all sides of the object. But in trying to align a text box with an area of crops, it is quite clearly not align correctly due to the fact that the height of the bounding box is a good half an inch above the text.

    After recently entering in aid of Illustrator (I still have a long way to go...) I was stunned by the number of tools at your disposal, but as someone who is so particular to do alignments and correct measures in a design project (which is not), it drives me crazy. It even makes me not want to continue, because even if I get the alignment as close as I can (manually edit the x and are coordinated to match the object at which I am trying to align does not work because of the size of the bounding box), I still feel like it is not as accurate as it could / should be.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    As this forum software sometimes tends to leave out all the text lines (even if they have been typed), here is the original message from Doug:

    Select the text object.

    Apply the outline object effect.

    Make sure that the use Preview Bounds option is selected in general preferences or the drop down palette align.

    Align text object.

  • Help with Cinema 4 d Lite text object

    I'm trying to use Cinema 4 d Lite for the first time, but a large number of options that should be here are not. Under MoGraph, the only thing it is fractured and effector. There are no other options. How can I make it appear? I know it's a light version, but there should be more options (like text object) it.

    MoText doesn't even come in the full version of Cinema 4 d If you get the premium version or view it. You need a Broadcast or Studio version to have MoText. Now, you have the option of spline of text (which you can then put into an extrusion object), so you should be able to make a 3d text quite easily without MoText.

    How to set text in an object, so the object expands with the text and has even space on both sides of the object in illustrator cc?

    R,

    You can do this:

    (1) create the initial direct Type;

    (2) in the appearance palette dialog, click on add a new fill and define the color as you wish;

    (3) effect > convert to shape > Rectangle corners round/Rectangle/Ellipse and set parent > width/extra height as you wish (essentially what needs to be added to the size of the bounding box, if anything).

    After that you can change the Type and the filled area will fit as shown on the picture.

  • How to place an image inline with the text using InDesign CS4?

    I'm writing the first draft of an instruction manual how two for some software.

    I'm writing the manual directly in InDesign CS4 and making screen shots that I'm making progress. I format the screenshot in Photoshop and export it to a JPG file.

    In InDesign, I double-click in the text box where I want to insert the image, go to file > place, get the picture, then press on open.

    Usually InDesign inserts the image at the cursor flashing in the text, but sometimes what happens is that no picture inserted and everything after it disappears. I get several empty text boxes and need to Control-Z to get back to where I started.

    Now I can put the image outside the text box and then manually move it to the text where I want to go, however when I export the file as HTML, then I need to manually move it to the appropriate area in Dreamweaver (when the image is placed inside the text box to the flashing cursor, the HTML file shows the image in the right place).

    I was able to insert the line in file with the text to a new paragraph mark, but sometimes InDesign doesn't let me do. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

    I don't know what I'm doing to prevent it from placing the paragraph mark and the blinking cursor (which is where I want it to appear).

    This is a recording of screen 54sec of my actions:

    Steps to follow:

    I double-click inside the text box

    I place the image

    everything goes

    I have a few pages scroll, and then return to the starting point

    I have to scroll through a page or double-click inside the text box then press return a few times, and the previous image, I put in this way is automatically pushed to the next page.

    I go back to point of original departure, try again, and it does not work.

    I've done it before, but now it does not work. I don't know what's happened prevents him from online to the location of the cursor.

    Help, please.

    Thank you

    It seems to me that the image is too wide for the frame. You can place it on the editing table, scale in the size, then cut to the Clipboard and paste it into the flow of the text.

  • Insert a property root data in a text object

    Hello

    I am writing a script to create a default report with a variable number of pages.

    For this, I use objects DIAdem to create these new pages, but I got stuck trying to correctly configure some textbox.

    I would like to display a property of data root in all the pages, don't forget that pages are created as the script goes.  "In theory", this value is a user input (get via a DlgBox when the script runs) so what I did was to assing the value: Data.Root.Properties ("Report_Number"). The value to the new text object (by using the TXTTXT command).

    By doing this, the new report shows the value (as a simple text, no longer tied to the property) which is fine as long as the user knew this value. But here's the problem, sometimes this value cannot be specified until the last moment so that users may have to change and now it's not that simple to change the value of the property, and then click Refresh. He or she would need to go one by one in order to change this "number".

    I am looking to start a new modeless dialog box or a new buttom that opens/closes all these objects refreshing their text of values but move before I would like to know if there is something easier to keep the link between the value of the property and the text object.

    p.S. I use 11 DIAdem

    Thank you

    Javier

    Javier,

    I think that I thought about it!

    You simply send the property textbox as variable instead of just under form of text. Here is an example

    TXTTXT = "@Data.Root.Properties(""Report_Number"")." "Value".

    You can see that I added the @ on each end of the property and also quote the string so that the script he interpret correctly. I also had to quote the string Report_Number so that the VB script would interpret it correctly.

    Give that a try and let me know how it goes - I think it should work fine for you. After you run the script, I can change the property and then refresh the report and see the updated value.

  • Strengthen a button/hyperlink with alternative text

    Hello

    I would like to improve a hyperlink with a text substitution in a different screen area, the alternative text should describe, where the hyperlink leads to.

    I tried to use a legend of reversal. But when I do the hyperlink and the rollover area overlap, I can't click on the hyperlink.

    Is it impossible to solve this problem with a hyperlink, then I'd appreciate also all solutions using a button.

    In this case, I highly recommend to have a look at the new widget CpExtra (HTML only) by InfoSemantics. You can download a trial version to check it out:

    Introduction to CpExtra | Infosemantics Pty Ltd

    One of its many features is that you can use a rollover over any object event. Maybe that's the answer. Of course the bearings are not supported in projects of a reactive nature.

    Output HTML is even more sensitive to having two interactive objects in one place.

  • You can link two dynamic text objects?

    This is a question about dynamic text objects.  Is it possible to link two dynamic text objects so that they flow together into an email or a landing page?

    For example, say you have two dynamic text objects, DTO1 and DTO2.  Also assume that DTO1 can vary in length, for example, two lines of five lines.  Is it possible to establish that DTO2 runs immediately after DTO1 to say, a single line of space empty between them?  I see no way to do it in email or the landing page editor, but perhaps that there's a way to do it with html or another approach.

    Thank you

    Andy

    Hi Andy,.

    Yes, to do this with html raw. Once you have the code, you can either put in the view of the source of a text box (if you use the Eloqua editor) or just throw in some test-tube html.

    First of all, you need get the HTML for your dynamic elements. It's kind of awkward to get this code but not too difficult.

    • Open a downloaded landing page or sent e-mail. You can not access the landing pages or emails that have been built using the Eloqua editor code.
    • Display dynamic content browser and search for your dynamic elements
    • Drag them into the section code of your destination or by e-mail page
    • Copy the code that gets placed there then the output of the page destination or email without saving changes
    • The code should look like this:
      • It is a piece of sample code for an element of dynamic content

    Now, when you build your email or a landing page which will contain both of these two elements of dynamic content just sticking two snippets in there and separate with a line break)

    ) to get the bit of empty space. As I've mentioned above, you can place code in the view of the source of a text box (if you use the Eloqua editor) or just throw in some test-tube html.

    In fact, if your final product should be a page external destination loaded or email you could save yourself the time and code just in a place-holder when you generate your html code. Then when you're done uploading, please drag the dynamic elements in the code of the dynamic browser and add your line breaks.

    The final code should look like this:

  • I need to create a curved with type text box that heal and return to the next line in the form of curved text. How do I do that?

    I need to create a curved with type text box that heal and return to the next line in the form of curved text. How do I do that?

    1. Draw a set of concentric half circles also spaced, stacked so that the outermost is the most remote.
    2. Use the text tool to add text to the outermost path, thus creating a PathType object.
    3. Select all the paths. Type > threaded text > create.
    4. Text tool: click at the end of the text in the object of PathType. Continue typing.

    > If I do that it will not type more.

    A Warp effect is a direct effect. When it is applied to the type of objects, they are still editable text. The chain will deform, however, the text also, not only the paths to which it is attached. Sometimes you want that, sometimes you don't have.

  • Is there a reason why certain numbers automatically generated do not align with the text?

    I'm building a small book in InDesign and generated chapter numbers only display correctly aligned with the text of the chapter into two chapters. In others, they are slightly lower than the base line and print that way. They all use the same format title and list paragraph. (I even checked the Master Pages for objects that drag may interfere and see nothing.) Someone has seen this and can point me to a solution?  The original document was from the Pages converted to MS Word, so I tried to see if there are some strange characters which came with the conversion, but as you can see on the screenshot below, nothing shows up. Any help to identify the problem or a cure would be greatly appreciated.

    Here is a chapter that is displayed not correctly, and it is the base character Format options.
