Setting dynamic text not working in AS2

I'm working on a complex file given to me by another designer
and I'm having a problem with being able to set dynamic text.
Basically, I just want to set the text of a nested instance (e.g.,
with an instance called foo and a instance inside foo called bar,
I'm using foo.bar.text = "test".) This works beautifully and as
expected in a test file. But when I move the symbols and code to
the other designer's file, nothing happens. I.e., the dynamic text
is blank.
I feel confident that I'm not making any errors (I'm using
tested code and symbols!), but I cannot think what else could be
causing the error. Mine is the only ActionScript in the entire
file.
Are there bugs with dynamic text? Could this have to do with
font substitution? I did change the fonts to Arial and "device
fonts" without effect.
Thanks!

I appreciate your taking the time to help me and others on
this board. (I actually have another -- probably related question
-- that has never been answered, but that one is more confusing
because it involved multiple language support and worked *until* I
embedded the font.)
My understanding of Flash is definitely a mixed bag. I have
encountered so many problems (really quirks) with Flash that I kind
of start with the assumption that I'm dealing with something
quirky.
In this case, since I don't know your style, I just couldn't
see where you were going with your questions. In any case, thanks.
I'm smarter re Flash as a result of your help.

Using alerts with variables-"dynamic text" not working

Hello all,
I'm triggering an alert from a BPM, and have set the flag "dynamic text" on for the alert category associated with it. I'm doing it in a similar way to the blog 1382 by Michal:
[/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated|/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated]
The only difference is that I'm just assigning a fixed text instead of a payload element to the container element, which I've defined as simple type - string.
However, the text of the alert doesn't show anything. I'm getting an email with just "Process <id>" as the subject and "Alert ID: <number>" in the body of the email (the same in the Alert Inbox).
I'm starting to think that there could be something wrong in PI 7.1 which I'm using, as I've configured other alerts in scenarios without BPM without problem.
Thanks for your suggestions!

I've solved it using an alert from the Enterprise Services Builder (Integration Repository). It's a new feature in PI 7.1. It seems the tab "Container" in the alert category didn't exist before (that's why you don't find it in the weblogs of Michal and others) and now you have to use it.

Why is predictive text not working on my iPhone 5s anymore

Why is predictive text not working on my iphone anymore

Actually, I just found the answer to my issue in this thread: The type correct/predict function for mail and text in iOS 8.0.2 was working fine then suddenly disappeared and reverted to the old style. I've checked all settings that seemed appropriate. How do I restore? I actually liked the new version.
Which says "a thin gray bar with a white dash in the middle of it immediately above the keyboard, you can reopen the suggestions by sliding up with one finger on the white dash."
That did it.
I too have noticed a change, it seems with the new IOS update. My Predictive setting is on, but it seems before it would come up more often in predicting words and also give me a few choices. Now, it's not coming up as much and only providing one 'predictive' word which is not always right. This change is not very useful.

I just upgraded to the New OS on my Mac Book Pro and now my trackpad does not zoom in or out. I looked at system settings on trackpad and it is set, but does not work How do I get it started?

This is really unfortunate. I'm sorry that nothing works. I was going to mention holding down the power button and doing a force shutdown but you already did that. You might need to take it into the Apple store. I don't know if booting into safe mode would help. You would have to turn off the machine again, hit the start button and hold down the shift key after you hear the tone, but normally you would let go of the shift key when you see the apple logo and spining wheel. Maybe by holding down the shift key after you here the tone will cause the screen to come back on? The other option is to start up from the 'install disk' if your machine came with one. You would insert the disk, then shut down the computer, and hold down the C key right after hitting the start button.

Why Does Dynamic Link Not Work

I purchased the CS5 Adobe Production Premium. I have been working in Premiere and I have been learning about how to use Dynamic Link. I want to be able to alter clips in After Effects and bring them back and forth into Premiere. When I go to File/ Adobe Dynamic Link/New After Effect Composition, I get this message:
Adobe Dynamic Link Requires Adobe Production Premium.
Since I own production premium, I do not know why I am getting this message. I have reinstalled the CS5 Production Premium Software twice and it still gives me the same message. What can I do to get Dynamic Link Working.

Thank you for the tip. Could you possibly tell me how to deactivate and
then reactivate the suite. I am using a Macbook Pro laptop running OS
10.6.4. I do not even know where to start.

Deactivate the software (not uninstall), and then reactivate the suite.
This often fixes this. You can opt to leave the serial number on the
system; no need to clear it and re-enter it.

Home Page setting option is not working. Home Page always reverts back to Modzilla Firefox Start Page.

Home Page setting option is not working after saving a new or different home page on Firefox 19.0. When opening a new page (not tab) it always reverts back to the default "Modzilla Firefox Start Page" no matter what.

That was it! There was a duplicate preference file in the profile folder. Followed the instructions under "Locked Preferences File" to
6. Delete any prefs-n.js files where n is a number (e.g. prefs-2.js).
Once I deleted it I was able to then save my preferred home page.
Thanks!!

Dynamic conversion not working if SSEnableDirectDelivery is set to true

hi experts,
In our site, we have downloadable pdfs,docs,videos etc. So in order to achieve this, we have used following configuration :
SSEnableDirectDelivery=true
SSDirectDeliveryExtensions=pdf,doc,ppt,jpg,gif,docx,pptx,gif,png,tif,eps,dot,html,zip,swf,exe,xls,xlsx,flv,mp3,mp4,fla,ppsx
Now, we have planned to use dynamic converter to convert word douments into HTML and display on site for Press Releases. As we have enabled SSEnableDirectDelivery, Dynamic conversion is not working.
we have a dynamic list on Primary Layout (hcsp template) that displays list of Press Releases. When we click on Press Release link, the word documents start downloading......
the steps are as follows :
1. Added SSEnableDirectDelivery=true and SSDirectDeliveryExtensions=pdf,doc,docx to config.cfg . Restarted the UCM server .
2. Added Dynamic List Plain fragment to a section of the site . Set the query to retrieve all the contents with extension .doc
3. Launched the site from a browser and the section where DL was added . This listed the word documents (extension with .doc)
4. Selected the word doc and see that it is being downloaded .
I also tired following :

it is working fine but issue is that URL in browser changed to http://example.com/idcplg?IdcService=GET_DYNAMIC_CONVERSION&RevisionSelectionMethod=LatestReleased&dDocName=id_003461
I dont want to expose this url, i want to show the friendly URL in Browser
e.g
http://exmaple.com/corporate/press-release/P09082010.html
please help!!!!!!!!!

Form in Dynamic page not working when checkbox is used.

I have created a form using dynamic page. The form most have display fields and a checkbox field. When I check a box, it assigns 'Y' value and when unclick, it assign 'N' to the database field.
When I submit the form, the procedure which is supposed to save the form data never gets executed. Well, at least it says, page not found HTTP 404 error.
Interestingly if I make this field a text box and manually enter 'Y' or 'N', and then submit the form, the procedure is executed. Data gets saved.
Is the checkbox not supposed to be used for a database field because checkbox value can be assigned only using javascript and the procedure never get that value ?
Can you please tell me how to use a checkbox for a database field using dynamic page ?
thanks,
Mainak

Sharmila,
When I said, the form does not get submitted, I meant that the procedure does not work. The form gets submitted but the procedure does not work. It gives HTTP 404 error. That is what perplexes me. I am unable to understand why the procedure does not work when I click a checkbox.
May be you can make this work. I am hopeless about this.

Links in dynnamic html text not working?...

Hi all
I have a dynamic text field, set to format html.
The link that loads in the dynamic text field is:
<a
href="portfolio_template.php?sec=housing%2F&sub=townhouses%2F&pro=rheingold+gardens%2F&st =2&id=5">Rheingold
Gardens receives 2006 Building Brooklyn Award</a>
It does not work.
If I make a very simple link, like:
<a href="
http://example.com">link</a>
It works.
I have seen in the Flash (MX2004) doc that
"<a href> must be a string, up to 128 characters."
My href string is not longer than 128 chars...
What is wrong?...

Dynamic text not displaying when publishing for flash 8

This dynamic text works fine when the movie is published for
flash 7, but when i export for the flash 8 player it seems to be
invisible. Is there any obvious reason for this happenning?
thanks
jon

Ok, thanks, looks like you've pointed me in the right
direction. I havent fixed it yet though. Heres where i am at:
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.embedFonts = false;
now i can see my text. of course its using a default font.
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = "arial14b";
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.embedFonts = true;
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.text = "wasssup?";
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.setTextFormat = my_fmt;
this isnt working. I have added a font object to the library
and linked it for actionscript using the monkier "arial14b".
however my text is quite invisible. i have checcked, 'export in
first frame' for the font object i even tried it with this
deselected. i have deselected the embed font option on the text
feild itself. that doesnt work either (unless i dont try to set the
text format, so long as i accept a default font, its fine).
so err, help?
confused
jon
ps further to this is have discovered more about this strange
behaviour. i can set the text to a different string, provided i do
not try to embed the font in any way. if i set the font to embed, i
can have the text display with the correct font, until i change the
text. then it dissappears. also i cannot seem to affect properties
like font size by means of my TextFormat object. the textFormat
object also does not seem to affect the font of the text.
in short, when exporting for flash 8, i cannot seem to
successfully embed fonts for dynamic text. the only thigs i have
gotten to work are: static text (or a dynamic text feild with
unchanged text) with an embedded font, or dynamic text with a
default font.

Dynamic text not showing up under a mask

Hi All,
So like many people, I've discovered the joy that you cannot display dynamic text boxes if they are masked.
After browsing the internet I found a few things to try, first embedding the font, which I have done, and that didn't work.
The other solution involves setting the mask to a display object, which I've done, sort of.
I create a Sprite() in code (I use Flex Develop, and never code on the time line), then use the Sprite.graphics to draw the mask, then set my main stage movieClip's .mask property to equal this layer.
That didn't work either.
Is there a third option?
Thanks in advance,
Tom

mask removed, the text still displayed, but I'm not sure what you meant by that, I can't see the field for the text itself, just the text, which is fine because it isn't an input box, the textfield itself is part of a movieClip, and I am able to adjust it no problems.
After some fiddling around and forehead banging against desk I found that if I just drew two boxes at the edges of my video on top of everything and the same color as my background, it would cover what I wanted to be covered and leave the rest visible. Not an elegant solution, admittedly, but the one that I found and that works in the time constraints I have.
Thanks for trying to help me once again kglad.
I'll learn to ask the right question one day, I think.

Dynamic Text Not Showing Up

I placed the SCROLLABLE text in a Dynamic Text box, labeled
the text, and set that same name as the Parameter on the UI
Scrollbar. When the timeline reaches that point in the Timeline,
the Scroll Bar appears, but not the text.
Click on the INTRO link and you can see what happens.
This is PROBABLY an easy fix for someone of intelligence.
