Dynamic text box, HTML Text with Image

Hello Everyone,
I am using Flash version 8. I have used the text tool and
created a dynamic text box and have attached the UIScrollBar
component to it. This text box is configured to allow the use of
html text to be inputted to it. I have code that reads a file which
contains a list of text files that I then read and place them into
the text box. The user can use the scroll bar to scroll through all
the text.
I have created an image that is a picture of the tab portion
of a file folder. On the tab I have place some text. This was all
done in Photoshop. This tab image is used to separate the different
stories in the text box. The image is save as a jpeg file
Everything you have just read works with out any problems.
Now for the problem!
This image is only 20 pixels tall and the text is not very
readable. As we all know the HTML tags are very limited in Flash 8.
Ideally I would like to put the text and image in to the text
box as I would normally do. Then place text on top of the image and
have it all scroll properly with in the text box.
I have taken the tab image and converted it in to a graph
symbol and then put the text on top of the image. This looks good;
however I don’t know how (or if it is even possible) to place
the graphic symbol in to the text box at the correct place within
the text.
Does anyone have ideas on what may work? Remember that the
image I am working with is only 20 pixels tall which is why the
text quality on the image is so poor.
Thank you all for any help you may provide,
Steve

Yes Tim I am using the <img> tag and I know that I
can’t place text over the image. I have set the height and
width to be the exact size of the image. However When you go to the
webpage it will open the movie to the maximum size based on the
resolution of your display; however I do maintain the aspect ratio
of the movie. For testing I did set a fix size to the size of the
movie. Sometimes the fix size (1000x750) looks better and sometimes
a larger size (example 1280x1024). I believe that the main problem
is the fact the size of the image is 670 pixels wide by 25 pixels
high and of the 25 pixels the text is only 18 pixels tall. In
Photoshop this makes it about a 1.75 point font. As you can see the
real problem is that I don’t have enough pixels to make up
the text. This is why I am looking for an alterative way to create
the text.
I tried importing the image into flash as a graphic symbol
and then using the text tool to create the text. The results looked
real sharp, the text was nice and crisp (just what I wanted). The
problem is that I could not find a way to place the graphic symbol
into the dynamic text area like id did using the <img> tag.
This symbol needs to scroll as you scroll the text in the text
area.
This is why I am asking for help. I am looking for some ideas
that may work.
Thank you,
Steve

A number of extensions can cause that problem, you'll need to do a little troubleshooting to find out which extension is causing that to happen for you.

I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it. help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks

I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it.
Is it not possible to create a text box, fill it with dynamic (data driven) text, but make the font size either scale up or down automatically, so that the entire text box is filled? This is a feature in PrintShop Mail Pro called COPY FIT. but no such feature in Indesign??
help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks, DJ

lol... it seems to work, but I have another huge problem!
Apparently .CSV files cannot contain page breaks in the data! The data I am trying to merge is a 'letter', with paragraphs, line breaks, etc.,
But, after data merging, it ignores page breaks and only merges the first paragraph of each letter. (sigh)
Solution? Hopefully, an EASY solution. lol as we have thousands of records.
Is there a third party indesign plugin that will allow .xml, or .xls data merge import??
Thx,
DJ

How to display html content with image in Adobe Flash and Flex mobile project?

Hi,
I have a html content with image in it. How to display it in Adobe Flash Builder and Flex mobile project? Which control needs to be used for this?

Hello,
The only current way is to use an iFrame, or if you only need some html tags you could use the Text Layout Framework.
Here this is the iFrame approach:

If the swc do not work in Flex4 just use its ource code which works...

Cannot type in a text box or text callout box

I'm using Windows 7, IE 9.0.8112.16421, and Acrobat version 10.1.6. I am working in a priorietary platform for reviewing material and I can use all of the commenting tools and can create a text box and a text callout box, but I cannot type in them. My text box and text callout box work just fine with every other program that I use on my system. But this requires using Acrobat and its tools within their platform and I cannot type in those two boxes in that situation. Their first suggestion was it was an Acrobat problem. We have repaired and reinstalled several times to no avail. They then said to be sure Acrobat Reader was not installed (and it wasn't). I've cleared history. Their online reviewing system requires a specific Java script in a specific place -- we've installed, deleted, reinstalled, etc. and it still doesn't work.
I've used this platform on another computer and it works fine. I got a new computer in February with a new CS, and the problem is occurring on only this new system. And only when I am using Acrobat in their platform.
Would anyone have any suggestions what I might try? They said they had one report of a person having the same problem, but they had Reader installed.
Thanks!

I don't know how to save a sample file to the forum. But I know it's actualy being created because I can close and reopen the document and the text box is still there and you can still select the text in the text box, view it and see it. But as soon as you click outside the text box, the text in the text box disappears again until you click back inside the text box.
This problem has been discussed ad nauseum with no solution ever having been given.

I am on Adobe X Pro and whenever I add text using the text edit tool the text disappears when I add text to another place in the document. It is also creating comments for every place I add text. How do I get the text to remain visible in the document and not create a comment?

How to save HTML file with images present in the server to local machine

Hi all
In my application i have a option for the user to save HTML files with images present in the server. The HTML file is getting saved but the images are not being saved.
The code i am using is below :-
l
                    File fname = new File(filePath);
                    if(!fname.exists())                return;
                    FileInputStream istr = null;
                    OutputStream ostr = null;
                    response.setContentType("application/"+format);
                    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + fname.getName() + "\";");
                    try {
                         istr = new FileInputStream(fname);

                              ostr.write(curByte);
                         ostr.flush();
Can anyone suggest what i need to do

The client should probably parse the html that comes down, and look for <img> links, and request those of the server as well.

Targeting Dynamic Text Box inside moviecip with variable

Hi,
How does one target a dynamic text box to change the border
color inside of a movie clip? Example below which does not work
theName = ("answerPrint" + arryCount);
boxName = ("box" + (arryCount+1));
_root.pagePrintPartA[theName][boxName].border = true;
_root.pagePrintPartA[theName][boxName].borderColor =
0x00cc66;

Thanks for the reinforcement, but I should of indicated what
was what:
theName = ("answerPrint" + arryCount);// Name of Variable
inside Dynamic Text Box Inside MovieClip
boxName = ("box" + (arryCount+1));// Instance Name of Actual
Dynamic Text Box Inside MovieClip
_root.pagePrintPartA[theName][boxName].border = true;
_root.pagePrintPartA[theName][boxName].borderColor =
0xFF0000;
By certifying this script you showed me wher I went wron (not
seeing the forest from the trees). The last two lines should be:
_root.pagePrintPartA[boxName].border = true;
_root.pagePrintPartA[boxName].borderColor = 0xFF0000;
I was targeting backwards. Thanks alot DazFaz.

Dynamic Text Boxes / Resizing text boxes

I have a site with a dynamic text box that I have initialized
(I'm not sure that that is the correct term) at the beginning with:
myText = new LoadVars();
myText.onLoad = function()
{ textBox_txt.htmlText = this.content;
myText.load("text/bio.txt");
stop();
Then I have just used a text box throughout with the same
instance name, although sometimes I have it on a new keyframe. I
assumed I could just keep loading text into it on different frames
with:
stop();
myText.load("text/performances.txt");
This appears to be working, except that sometimes it seems to
be confused and the text box on a certain frame has the wrong text
in it. Do I have to initialize one for each frame in order for them
to display the right code? What could be causing it to load another
text file if it's frame action is telling it to load something
else? It seems unnecessary to have to re-initialize it for a new
text box instance in every new frame, but is that the way it has to
be done?
Also, I'm not clear on resizing text boxes. It seems like if
I use the width and height numbers to resize this text box on
different pages then it changes the size of the text inside, and
the scroll bar (the UIScrollbar) is a little squishy looking
sometimes. How does this work?
Thanks for any help.

You will find it much better to create a new LoadVars object
for each of the frames, just call them myText1 myText2 etc.
The name of the text box instance in this case is irrelevant
but best practice would be to give them individual names.
As for the stretching effect use setSize() for UI
components.

How do I place an image inside of a text box, then lock the image

I have the text where I want it, in font, style, color and everything. But there is an image that I need too to go infront of the text and i need it in the text box so that both the image (which already has a clear background), matches the textbox which also too has a clear background.

Copy and paste the image inline.
Or simply overlay it and group the textbox and image.
Menu > Arrange > Group
Menu > Arrange > Lock

How to remove text box that appears with a red pin in maps?

In Apple maps, when I type in an address, it comes up on the map with the address in a text box and a red pin below it. I've read that you need to delete the address in search to get rid of the red pin. I want to get rid of the text box so I can see the map around the address I am searching. The text box blocks a lot of the area if you are trying to discern where on a street this address is, etc. How can I do this?
thank you,
Michelle

Thanks for the idea. I did it as far as it would go and it is actually covering the area I'm trying to see.
Knowing that if I clear the search, the area is visible. However, when I tried it and did some adjustments to the app, changing they view, it jumped back to my home address so I had to start over. I assumed there was a way to keep the pin so I don't lose my location and clear the text box as we don't need to keep seeing it as it is up in the info bar. It sounds like this is not designed into the app.
Thanks for the suggestion.

To replace the Text like "History,Back" with Images in Page Title bar

Hi All,
My requirement is to change the Text like "History,Back Forward" Texts with the Images in the Page Title bar.Under theme editor I dont have an option to replace with Image.
I checked with the com.sap.portal.navigation.pagetoolbar.par file.I am not getting exactly where to replace the Text with Images.
Please let me know if I am referring to the correct par file and where to make changes.

Hi,
It depends if the WDJ application has made another navigation.
History saves any navigations made by the user (TLN/DTN,etc) or navigation done by applications in code (wdDoNavigate, EPCM.doNavigate).
So it can go back to previous view , or previous iview the user was at...

HTML content with images and links blocked

Hello,
I very much need some help here because my company needs to send out newsletters to our clients in HTML format soon and so far the email with HTML content is being blocked as spam while text content works fine. Specifically, whenever I add a link or an image in HTML content, the email doesn't go through. I tried sending in multipart format but it is also not sending HTML with images and links. Here is my attempt:
                                props.setProperty("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");
                                 props.setProperty("mail.host", "mail.server.com");
                                 props.setProperty("mail.user", "joeuser");

                                 htmlPart.setHeader("MIME-Version", "1.0");
                                 htmlPart.setHeader("Content-Type", htmlPart.getContentType());
                                 htmlPart.setContent(strHtmlMessage, "text/html");

                                 transport.close();This code is one of my numerous attempts to make HTML send images and links. Please, let me know if there is a workaround way to make JavaMail send HTML with links and images in the message body. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

The JavaMail FAQ has information on creating HTML messages, including
messages with both plain text and HTML. Did you find it?
BTW, your code has many unnecessary statements, such as setting
the Mime-Version header, which JavaMail will do for you, and setting
the Content-Type header, which JavaMail does as a side-effect of the
setContent or setText calls.
Other than that, it looks like your code should be correctly creating a
multipart/alternative message. If the recipient is still rejecting it you
need to figure out what it is about the message that makes the recipient
think it's spam. Can you send a similar message using another mailer?
Can you send the message to a different recipient?
