Font dynamically loaded

Hi everyone,
A simple question because I think I already know the answer, but will be glad if someone corrects me.
I know how to embed and use a font with the Embed in AS3, similar to what Flex uses.
My question is: if I have textfield dynamically created by code, and want to assign to it a font. Is there a way that I can attribute the font dynamically, say by teling what font goes to that textfield through XML?
Probably I have to prepare the font to be used in a specific folder. But imagine that you have several font possibilities in that folder. Can you assign one of them to that textfield by code, according to what the XML says?
... Or just load several fonts and pick one of them from what the XML says?
Thanks

Yes it is possible.If you are using flash cs5.5.
simple example :
var comboTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
   currentFontname = comboBox.selectedItem.label;
   comboTextFormat.font = currentFontname;
   comboTextFormat.size = 15;
   myFormat = new TextFormat();
   myFormat.size = currentFontsize;
   myFormat.font = currentFontname;
   QuestionText.defaultTextFormat = myFormat;
   QuestionText.text = currentText;
   comboBox.textField.setStyle("textFormat", comboTextFormat);
This will help you. try it let me know
Thanks

What code are you using to load the font?

Load font dynamically

Hi,
I need to load font dynamically in my application
The swf size is 2.34 MB (which contains the 20 embeded fonts)
My application size is 1.92 MB
SDK 4.0
OS is windows XP
It takes 1 min to load 20 fonts in list. But i wants to load more than 200 fonts dynamically
Please suggest me the way to reduce the loading time.
I have used the following code in application's creation complete event to load the swf,
var cssEventDispatcher:IEventDispatcher=styleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("assets/style/Prop ertyFonts1.swf")
cssEventDispatcher.addEventListener(StyleEvent.COMPLETE, onComplete);
Thanks in Advance

Problem displaying dynamically loaded text in Flash CS3

I created a Flash CS3 application that does not display
dynamically loaded text (from internal AS3 scripts) on 3/6 of my
client's computers. All computers run IE 6 and Flash Player 9. I
cannot replicate the problem on any computer in my department. The
problem seems to be related to Flash Player 9 or a browser
setting/IT restriction. Has anyone encountered this? If so, have
you found a solution?
If I cannot find a solution, then I will need to almost
completely redo the application.
One slightly insane idea I have considered is to, if
possible, convert dynamically loaded text to an image real-time. Is
that possible?
Btw, I have created a font in my library. Should I try
manually embedding the font from the Properties menu and selecting
all characters?
Thanks in advance.

yes, even though you may be using a font from the library,
you still have to specify that each text field that uses that font
embeds the font, and you'll need to select all characters(well not
all, unless you require all the different scripts of the world -
upper-case, lower-case, numerals and punctuation usual suffices).
I bet if you checked, the computers where the font did not
appear did not have the font on their system.
Good luck
Craig

How to style dynamically loading text?

Hi,
I am dynamically loading a .txt file into CS3 using
ActionScript 3.0. I want to style the text using CSS/HTML. The only
thing I can get to function using CSS/HTML is the "a tag", I can't
seem to get bold, colour, font, etc working. Should i be using CSS
or should I be doing this styling from ActionScript in the swf
files? I have checked the help files but I could get their tags to
work.
Any suggestions very welcome.
Thanks.

you will have more control over all of this if you feed in an
xml file rather than a txt file. you can stipulate your class
attributes within the xml then
if you want to style the dynamic content using just your txt
file and the controls within the fla you could embed the typeface
glyphs you want to use within your output swf file and colour them
/ change weight etc within the fla
hope that is of some use
;-)

Anyway to have JDeveloper dynamically load BC4J components in memory?

We are dealing with a large BC4J based application that contains large amount of application modules. So far, 300 application modules and total 4000 BC4J objects have been created. The size of the application still keeps growing daily... may up to twenty times than what we are having right now.
While the application size growing, some unusual problem comes out. The biggest problem is that it makes JDeveloper very sluggish. It takes 15 minutes to just open JDeveloper and may need a few minutes to open the application module editor. (FYI: in our team, most developers have 1G memory and 1.8G CPU or up.) This is probably still OK for right now, but it will become a big problem later when the project size grows.
When we analysis the project structure, we know that most of time, developer does not need to load all the application modules. For example, we have a core package that contains about 30 application modules. This core package needs to be shared and should be loaded. But, the other nine packages contain about 30 application modules each do not need to be loaded into memory at the same time in most cases. Since BC4J is XML based, we could not find a way to just partially load those application modules, especially when theres cross references between them.
When we check the project.jpr file, looks like all BC4J objects are referenced there. We have 40K lines in our project.jpr file now. When open JDeveloper, we believe JDeveloper will try to load all referenced BC4J XML content into memory. This consumes 500M memory and makes the overall performance very sluggish. The situation may become even worse when the project size keeps growing. For example, we cannot have 5000M (5G) memory in a development machine for 3000 application modules.
We do know that by checking out the "ScanSource Paths to Determins Project Contents" in the Input Paths of Project Settings, we can short the JDevelopers open time, but this will not give BC4J relationship information and some other useful information Not a practical solution.
So, any idea to make JDeveloper dynamically loaded BC4J based on need?
Weve tried a few ways. One is to partition the application into different project and import the core one into the other projects. Only open the project in workspace when need. But this is not officially documented by Oracle and we are not sure whether it is possible/correct or not. Another thought is to remove the NOT-CURRENTLY-USED package from the project. But JDeveloper only support file level remove.
Any help on this dilemma will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Charles

The package is the unit of loading in the IDE for ADF business components.
To edit components, they must belong to the project.
To refer to components in a read-only way, they can be imported. This allows other editable or read-only components to refer to them without allowing the imported components to be edited.
Both editable and imported components need to be loaded in memory to use them, so you can save memory at design time by creating projects that leave out as many packages as possible.
Is there a way we can get your existing project in house to study its design time performance?

Dynamic load of images in to established Timeline effect

Is it possible to dynamicly load images in to an already
established timeline effect?
Steps I've done.
Stuffed a JPG in to the library by draging and dropping it in
to the SWFs library.
Dropped the JPG on to the main stage
Right clicked the image then going down to Timeline effects
and choosing an effect.
Completing any changes in effects dialogue box and then
clicking OK.
Play the movie, and pat myself on the back that it worked.
So then, how can I get Actionscript to load an image
dynamically in to that same Timeline effect and have it do the
effect to that instead of the one found in the library?
I'm using Flash MX Professional 2004.

hii
Can u mention the error message getting while the status become RED??
As what I understand, this may be the issue of invalid characteristics inPSA Data Records or also there may be records that does not support the lower case or upper case data.
So just check the data in PSA Level

Spry Tabbed panels + Progressive Enhancement and Dynamic Loading of Content With Spry

Is there any way to combine tabbed panels together with "Progressive Enhancement and Dynamic Loading of Content With Spry"?
Visit: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/best_practices/progressive_enhancement.ht ml#updatecontent
And click on the "Using Spry.Utils.updateContent()"
The 3rd example shows how to use a fade transition whenever the content changes.
I already have tabbed panels. My menu contains buttons (on tabs) and my Content div contains the panels.
Tabs code;
<ul class="TabbedPanelsTabGroup">
          <li class="TabbedPanelsTab">
               <table class="Button" >
                    <tr>
                    <td style="padding-right:0px" title ="Home">
                    <a href="javascript:TabbedPanels1.showPanel(1);" title="Home" style="background-image:url(/Buttons/Home.png);width:172px;height:75px;display:block;"><br/></a>
                    </td>
                    </tr>
               </table>
          </li>
etc
etc
etc
and the panel code:
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent" id="Home">
     CONTENT
</div>
I hoped i can use the example code from the link into my tabbed panels.
I thought this code:
onclick="FadeAndUpdateContent('event', 'data/AquoThonFrag.html'); return false;"
could be added to the tab code like this:
<a href="javascript:TabbedPanels1.showPanel(1);" onclick="FadeAndUpdateContent('event', 'data/AquoThonFrag.html'); return false;" title="Home" style="background-image:url(/Buttons/Home.png);width:172px;height:75px;display:block;"><br/></a>
But the content doesnt fade...
I know i need to change the header etc.
The following is from the link:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:spry="http://ns.adobe.com/spry">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Aquo Events</title>
<script src="../../../includes/SpryEffects.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="../../../includes/SpryData.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
<style type="text/css">
/* IE HACK to prevent bad rendering when fading. */
#event { background-color: white; }
</style>
</head>
So i changed my header etc, put the SpryEffects.js and SpryData.js into position and nothing changed...
Is there a way to keep my tabbed panel (or change as less as possible) and let
A. The fade work
B. The loading work.
The problem now is that it loads all pages instead of only the home. Therefore i wanted this Progressive Enhancement.
And the fading part is just because its nice...

It doesnt show in the post but off course i changed this link;
"data/AquoThonFrag.html"
into;
"javascript:TabbedPanels1.showPanel(1);"
I must say i dont know if this even works...

How can you display a dynamically loaded vi to the Web Server?

I am working with LabView 6.1 and the Web Server. I can call a subvi and have it display on a remote machine using a browser with no problem. But what I would like to do is dynamically load and run a vi and have it display on the remote computer using only a browser. I have tried a small example of a front panel that invokes the run vi method (and fp.open prop) on another vi when a button is pressed, but the invoked vi is displayed only on the local computer. Is there any way of viewing dynamically loaded vi's on a remote machine without having a copy of LabView running on it?

If i understand your question correctly, you want to monitor vi that are dynamically loaded on a remote machine without having LabVIEW installed on the machine from witch you want the monitor. I don't think it's possible how ever a good reference book would be Internet applications in LabVIEW. You can find it on BARNES&NOBLE.
Hope i could help

How to dynamically load jar files - limiting scope to that thread

Dynamically loading jar files has been discussed a lot. I have read a quite a few posts, articles, and demo code for doing just that. However, I have yet to find a solution to my problem. Most people modify their system class loader and are happy. I have done that and was happy for a time. Occasionally, you will see reference to an application server or tomcat or some other large project that have successfully been able to load and unload jar files, allow for dynamic deployment of code, etc. However, I have not been able to achieve similar success; And my problem is much less complicated.
I have an application that executes a thread to send a given file/message to a standard JMS Server Queue. Depending on the parameters selected by the user, this thread may need to communicate with one of a number of JMS Servers, ie. JBoss, WebLogic, EAServer, Glassfish, etc. All of which can be done with the same code, but each needs to load their own flavor of JMS Client Jar files. In this instance, spawning a separate JVM for each communication would work from a classloader perspective. However, I need to keep it in the family and run under the same JVM, albeit each JMS Server Connection will be created and maintained in separate Threads.
I am close, I am doing the following...
1. Creating a new URLClassLoader in the run() method of each thread.
2. Set this threads contextClassLoader to the new URLClassLoader.
3. Load the javax.jms.JMSException class with the URLClassLoader.loadClass() method.
4. Create an initialContext object within this thread.
Note: I read that the initialContext and subsequent conext lookup calls would use the Thread�s
contextClassLoader for finding/loading classes.
5. Perform context.lookup calls for a connectionFactory and Queue name.
6. Create JMS Connection, etc. Send Message.
Most of this seems to work. However, I am still getting a NoClassDefFoundError exception for the javax.jms.JMSException class ( Note step #3 - tried to cure unsuccessfully).
If I include one of the JMS Client jar files ( ie wljmsclient.jar for weblogic ) in the classpath then it works for all the different JMS Servers, but I do not have confidence that each of the providers implemented these classes that now resolve the same way. It may work for now, but, I believe I am just lucky.
Can anyone shine some light on this for me and all the others who have wanted to dynamically load classes/jar files on a per Thread basis?

Thanks to everyone - I got it working!
First, BenSchulz' s dumpClassLoader() method helped me to visualize the classLoader hierarchy. I am still not completely sure I understand why my initial class was always found by the systemClassLoader, but knowning that - was the step I needed to find the solution.
Second, kdgregory suggested that I use a "glue class". I thought that I already was using a "glue class" because I did not have any JMSClient specific classes exposed to the rest of the application. They were all handled by my QueueAdmin class. However...
The real problem turned out to be that my two isolating classes (the parent "MessageSender", and the child "QueueAdmin") were contained within the same jar file that was included in the classpath. This meant that no matter what I did the classes were loaded by the systemClassLoader. Isolating them in classes was just the first step. I had to remove them from my jar file and create another jar file just for those JMSClient specific classes. Then this jar file was only included int custom classLoader that I created when I wanted to instantiate a JMSClient session.
I had to create an interface in the primary jar file that could be loaded by the systemClassLoader to provide the stubs for the individual methods that I needed to call in the MessageSender/QueueAdmin Classes. These JMSClient specific classes had to implement the interface so as to provide a relationship between the systemClassLoader classes and the custom classLoader classes.
Finally, when I loaded and instantiated the JMSClient specific classes with the custom classLoader I had to cast them to the interface class in order to make the method calls necessary to send the messages to the individual JMS Servers.
psuedu code/concept ....
Primary Jar File   - Included in ClassPath
Class<?> cls = ClassLoader.loadClass( "JMSClient.MessageSender" )
JMSClientInterface jmsClient = (JMSClientInterface) cls.newInstance()
jmsClient.sendMessage()
JMSClient Jar File - Loaded by Custom ClassLoader Only
MessageSender impliments Primary.JMSClientInterface{
    sendMessage() {
        Class<?> cls=ClassLoader.loadClass( "JMSClient.QueueAdmin" )
        QueueAdmin queueAdmin=(QueueAdmin) cls.newInstance()
        queueAdmin.JMSClientSpecificMethod()
    }

URLClassLoader + dynamically loading signed jar files

I have an applet that does not know all of the jar files it will need to load at startup.
I would like to dynamically load these signed jar files using the URLClassLoader, however it does not recognize these jar files as being signed and I get java.security.AccessControlException: access denied errors.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Try this classloader for loading the jars, it should to the trick:
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLClassLoader;
import java.net.URLStreamHandlerFactory;
import java.security.AllPermission;
import java.security.CodeSource;
import java.security.PermissionCollection;
import java.security.Permissions;
public class AllPermissionsClassLoader extends URLClassLoader {
    public AllPermissionsClassLoader (URL[] urls) {
        super(urls);
    public AllPermissionsClassLoader (URL[] urls, ClassLoader parent) {
        super(urls, parent);
        System.out.println(parent);
    public AllPermissionsClassLoader (URL[] urls, ClassLoader parent, URLStreamHandlerFactory factory) {
        super(urls, parent, factory);
    protected PermissionCollection getPermissions (CodeSource codesource) {
        Permissions permissions = new Permissions();
        permissions.add(new AllPermission());
        return permissions;
}

Editting PDF documents that were created by a MAC doesn't work because of font incompatability. How can we get MAC fonts and load in our Adobe Acrobat Pro 9?

If it's a Mac font and you're on Windows, you can't. If you are also on a Mac, you'll need to purchase the fonts (fonts are generally non-transferable, like software. One of the reasons pdf exists), install them and try your edits.
But it's best to edit the original document and create a new pdf when finished.

Dynamically Loading Slide Show...

hello everyone
this is a big one...but i am stuck!
i want to make a slideshow in flash 8 with the following
properties...
1/ dynamically loads jpegs from an external folder and
centers them on the stage (regardless of whether they are
landscape/portrait)...this bit i can do
2/next/prev buttons (also i can do)
3/ play/stop buttons (this is tricky as versions i have been
working on don`t have time to load the image before the playhead
moves on...therefore i need some kind of actionscript which tests
if the jpeg has loaded, waits for *** seconds then goes to the next
frame...)
4/ it has to be re-usable (i want it so that the images are
loaded as img1.jpg, img2.jpg...then when i want to edit or re-use
the show i can alter the amount of images and flash will look for
the last loading image then loop back to the first.
i knoe this is a big ask but if anyone has the time to help
me out i would really appreciate it
thankyou

Hope, this is not so big !
But, if you are using the loadClip instead of loadMovie, you
can trace out the loading process of each images. So that, when an
image get loaded, you can start the counter by "setInterval". This
will turn aging for all the dynamicall images has been
loaded.....

Dynamically Load Thumbnails To Horizontal Movieclip?

I'd like to dynamically load thumbnails into a horizontal movieclip at the bottom of an image gallery to then allow me to load an image by clicking the thumbnails. I found a tutorial to help me load the thumbnails to the stage but I am not sure how to load them into the thumbs movieclip. Here is the code I am using:
var imageLoader:Loader;
var xml:XML;
var xmlList:XMLList;
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("xml/murals.xml"));
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void
    xml = XML(event.target.data);
    xmlList = xml.children();
    for(var i:int = 0; i < xmlList.length(); i++)
        imageLoader = new Loader();
        imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(xmlList[i].attribute("thumb")));
        imageLoader.x = i * 175 + 25;     // <----- Also, I don't seem to understand how to space the thumbnails using this code.
        imageLoader.y = 5;
        addChild(imageLoader);
Thanks in advance!

I wasn't sure if I should make a new discussion for this or not so I'm just going to post it here.
Alright. I finally found a tutorial that works for what I am trying to do. The thumbs load on a grid and when I click on the thumb they load in the loader. Now I am having trouble removing them. The tutorial has the remove function on the loaded large image so when you click that it removes itself. I would like so that when you click on the a thumb the current image will unload and the thumb that is clicked on will load but can't figure out how to get it to do that. I figured I'd just add a CLICK listener for the "removeFull" function to the "callFull" function but I think it cancels itself out.
Here is the code I am using: (the code to load and unload is toward the bottom)
stop();
var columns:Number = 2;
var my_x:Number = 25;
var my_y:Number = 75;
var my_thumb_width:Number = 65;

var x_counter:Number = 0;
var y_counter:Number = 0;
var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("xml/gallery.xml"));
myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
function processXML (e:Event):void{
    var myXML:XML = new XML(e.target.data);
    my_images = myXML.IMAGE;
    my_total = my_images.length();
    createContainer();
    callThumbs();
function createContainer():void{
    container_mc = new MovieClip();
    container_mc.x = my_x;
    container_mc.y = my_y;
    addChild(container_mc);
//The large image loads when the thumb is clicked on.
    container_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, callFull);
    container_mc.buttonMode = true;
function callThumbs():void{
    for (var i:Number = 0; i < my_total; i++){
        var thumb_url = my_images[i].@THUMB;;
        var thumb_loader = new Loader();
        thumb_loader.load(new URLRequest(thumb_url));
        thumb_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, thumbLoaded);
        thumb_loader.name = i;
        thumb_loader.x = (my_thumb_width+25)*x_counter;
        thumb_loader.y = (my_thumb_height+25)*y_counter;
        if (x_counter+1 < columns){
            x_counter++;
        } else {
            x_counter = 0;
            y_counter++;
function thumbLoaded(e:Event):void{
    var my_thumb:Loader = Loader(e.target.loader);
    container_mc.addChild(my_thumb);
//This function loads the large image.
function callFull(e:MouseEvent):void{
    var full_loader:Loader = new Loader();
    var full_url = my_images[e.target.name].@FULL;
    full_loader.load(new URLRequest(full_url));
    full_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, fullLoaded);
//This function centers the large image in the gallery loader.
function fullLoaded(e:Event):void{
    var my_loader:Loader = Loader(e.target.loader);
    MovieClip(parent.parent).gallery.addChild(my_loader);
    my_loader.x = (MovieClip(parent.parent).gallery.width - my_loader.width)/2;
    my_loader.y = (MovieClip(parent.parent).gallery.height - my_loader.height)/2;
//The large image unloads when it is clicked on.
    my_loader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,removeFull);
//This function removes the loaded image from the gallery loader.
function removeFull(e:MouseEvent):void{
    var my_loader:Loader = Loader (e.currentTarget);
