Help with dynamic text and and css !

My second question of the day.
I'm trying to build a feature in my app in which the user can
hide/reveal
bolding and or
italics and or
underlining. The text is being loaded in from an xml file
and I was thinking about styling it with css in order to get the
underlining. My problem is that the only way I can think about
pulling this off is to have a css style sheet that has a defined
bold,italic and underline class defined- - then another one that
just has a italic and underline class defined -- then another one
that has just a bold and underline class defined . . . and so on
and so on. You can see why I would prefer a much more streamlined
system. Unfortunately my experience with dynamic text styling is
somewhat limited. Hopefully someone can help me out here.

Perfect. I knew it was some little snippet that I was
forgetting. I made a temporary fix of creating a 0% alpha box over
the button like a fake click area above the text, and that worked
but I know that it was a half-arsed way of working around it.
Thanks.

Hi Sarar2333! Let's get your text tones working again!
Here's a link with instructions how to enable and change your alert sounds for your text/notification settings on your iPhone 4S: http://vz.to/1stiF8a. You can ensure text tones are enabled by selecting a tone in the "Text Tone" setting. Let me know how that works out for you. Thanks!

Help with dynamic text and hand cursor

The buttons that I am creating are not displaying the hand
cursor. I tried searching for an answer, and have found nothing.
They are movieclip buttons with a dynamic text field. I already
switched them out to non-selectable text, and I am using:
b1.buttonMode = true;

Newb needs help with dynamic text

Hi Everyone,
I don't like being a newb - but that's how it is...
I'm trying to create a multipage registration form that
allows uses to register products.
The first page asks for name etc, and on the second page I
want it to say "Welcome "+username "!" - that sort of thing...
The problem is I can't get it to keep the dynamic text values
accross the pages.
I can get it to repeat the input on the first page with this
code:
_root.firstname_txt.onChanged = function() {
_root.firstname_repeat.text="Hello
"+_root.firstname_txt.text;
However when I call it on the second page it is undefined:
second_repeat.text="hello "+_root.firstnamt_txt.text;
trace (_root.second_repeat.text);
I'm sure this is something simple and I'm just a programming
dunce...
Any help is appreciated.
ta

if your textfield (_root.firstname_repeat) doesn't exist on
the 2nd frame, its text property will be undefined.
to remedy, either extend your textfield's existance into the
frames needed or use a variable to store its text property (in your
onChanged handler) and use that variable to retrieve the value you
need.

Help with dynamic text

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone could help me out.
Basically, I'v created a dynamic text on the main timeline
with an instance name of "score". I then created a button within 2
movie clips. The idea is that when the button is pressed, I add to
the score. The code I'm using on the button is
on(press){
_root.score.text +=20;
I'm not an experienced actionscripter, I was wondering if
anyone could maybe tell me where I'v gone wrong and what to do to
make this work. Thanks xD

Hmmm.
Well officially the .text property of a textfield is a string
so what will happen is that the 20 gets turned into string and
concatenated (or appended) the the string value in the text
property.
Can you clarfify the problem? Is your textfield changing or
not?
If it is changing then you will need to do something like:
_root.score.text = Number(_root.score.text)+20;
That requires that a valid number already exists in the
textfield. It might be safer to track the score in a separate
variable and then assign it to the textfield's text property each
time it changes.
If its not changing then try putting a trace in to see what's
happening:
on(press){
trace("textfield is:"+_root.score)
_root.score.text +=20;
If you see 'undefined' then it may just be a typo - perhaps
you called it Score with an uppercase S for example. If its defined
and nothing is visible then it could be that you've embedded fonts
without numbers or something like that.

Help With TLF Text Fields and UI Scrollbar

I've been trying to get one scrollbar to work with three TLF text fields. They are alligned from top to bottom like a column. It would seem better to just make one text field but because there are graphic symbols in the way that block the text, I made the middle text field smaller then the top, and the bottom smaller then the middle.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the text from the bottom text field to scroll to the top while the text fills the empty space of each text field properly. Is there anyway to make the UI scrollbar work like this? I cant find any info.
thanks,
Daniel

There is no way to do this directly from the authoring environment. You can change the code to another solid color using code.
But you don't sound like you are a coder.
So the best solution for you would be to turn off the back ground and just draw some artwork behind the textfields. Perhaps put it on a different layer so that it is easier to manage.

A drag and drop game with dynamic text response

Hi,
I am a teacher and my school has recently upgraded to Adobe Design Premium. Our previous version was about 5 versions out of date.
I teach A Level which requires students to create an Interactice Multimedia product.
In the previous 6 years, I have taught students how to create simple drag and drop game with dynamic text responses.
Since the upgrade to Actionscript 3.0 the dynamic text response has ceased working.
When creating the game from scratch, I need to move to Actionscript 2.0 as 3.0 does not allow me to add actionscript to objects - I know and am sure that this is a better way of doing things, but I would prefer to keep working the way I am used to.
I use a switch case statement which I have copied below to make the drag and drop work. The objects I apply the code to work in that they can be dragged, however, my dynamic text box with a variable name of "answer" is no longer displaying the response when an answer is left on a dropzone (rectangle converted to a symbol and given an instance name).
on(press) {
startdrag(this);
on(release) {
stopdrag();
switch(this._droptarget) {
case "/dropzoneB":
   _root.answer="Well done";
   break;
case "/dropzoneA":
case "/dropzoneC":
   _root.answer="Hopeless";
   break;
default:
   _root.answer="";
   break;
Any help would be much apeciated.
Thanks
Adrian

To drag in as3
blie_btn is the instance of the object drawin on the stage. In AS3 you have to assign a even listener, in this case MOUSE_DOWN, and MOUSE_UP, as we want the drag to stop if the mouse is not clicked. Then we fire the functions, and tell the object to start drag.
// Register mouse event functions
blue_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
blue_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
red_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
red_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
// Define a mouse down handler (user is dragging)
function mouseDownHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
     var object = evt.target;
     // we should limit dragging to the area inside the canvas
     object.startDrag();
function mouseUpHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
     var obj = evt.target;
          obj.stopDrag();
if you want to make the text do what you want then something like this might work.
In the function, you could add a text box onto the stage, give it a instance of something like outputText
and then:
outputText = ("Bla Bla Bla");
(^Not sure if this will work exactly^)
PS. I am currently a A-level student

Dynamic Text Edit and Groups

Hi Experts ,
I want to create dynamic text edits and groups.
Thank You.

Hi Radhika,
Sorry was busy with some other tasks. Just go through this sample code snippet which does the following.
1) It dynamically creates a context node named CHILD and then creates 4 attributes ATTR1, ATTR2,..
2) Creates a GROUP UI element with a caption attached to it
3) Create 4 textEdit UI elements bound to the 4 context attributes created earlier and embed them within the group

Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe. When I start the download I get this on the screen: The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068." The memory could not be written. Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug. So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer. A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it. I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance, for your reply. Jim R.

Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy. A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief.
It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C. no joy.
Sigh...Jim R.

Barbara Brundage, can you help with PS Elements 11 and Epson R2000 printer issue?

Seeking help with PS Elements 11 which does not work with Epson r2000 printer. Epson tech support could not fix, said it is PS e11 problem. Receive prompt on PS e11 screen when I try to print stating "not compatible or settings are not correct. Have set PS to manage color and printer manages color to off. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

Hi,
Sincerely appreciate your help. Running Windows 7 on a Dell XPS420. System has been very stable for years. Before purchasing the Epson r2000, I owned an r1800 which was an excellent printer but after seven years started to exhibit paper feed problems. The r1800 worked with all applications and I was well satisfied with the saturation, contrast, etc. printing mostly 8x10 and 11x17 prints.
Thank you for the information about the # of installs for PS E11, will try uninstall/reinstall this morning.
Will let you know how things go.

New help with my mac air and airport extreme time capsule dont know how to save to time capsule and use as a external hd

new help with my mac air and airport extreme time capsule dont know how to save to time capsule and use as a external hd would like 2 store my home videos and pictures on the time machine (ONLY) as the MAC AIR has storage space limited space please help. THANK YOU.

See the info here about sharing or using the TC for data.
Q3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
It is extremely important you realise.. the Time Capsule was never designed for this.
It is a backup target for Time Machine.. that is the software on the computer that does backups.. it has no direct connection to the Time Capsule.
It has no ability to back itself up.. unlike all other NAS in the market. It is therefore likely one day you will lose all your files unless you seriously work out how to backup.
The TC is slow to spin up the hard disk and fast to spin down. iTunes and iPhoto will continually lose connection to their respective libraries.
iPhoto in particular is easy to corrupt when you move photos over wireless into the library.. once corrupted all is corrupt. A single photo will ruin it all.. so backup is utterly essential.
Time Machine cannot do backups of network drives. ie the TC. You will need a different backup software like CCC. You will then need another target to backup to..

Dynamic text box and minus variable?

I have a text box with dynamic text set to display p variable but when the variable goes < 0 it only displays a '-'.
im using:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
p = my_object._x;
How can I correct this? Also another question with 'my_object._x' it returns the x coord relative to the movie clip it is in. How do I get the position relative to the 0,0 (top left corner)?
I've been learning Flash for 2 days so sorry if the questions sound simple. I have tried googling these.

for the textfield question....
I'm not too sure about that... it could be related to the width of the textfield, or maybe a maxChars setting on the textfield....not really sure sorry. Someone else may have an answer....
for the other question...
getRect() gives you the bounding box (without stroke width, use getBounds() if you want bounds outside the stroke width)
try
var geometricBounds = my_object.getRect();
trace(geometricBounds.xMin+","+geometricBounds.yMin)

Cannot use text:TextField with dynamic text in 3.2

Hi, I have a multi-lang app which uses English LTR and Hebrew-Arabic RTL. I am using a properties file for each language, and I get the right item using resourceManager getString. Until 3.2 I had to reverse the order of the words in each item when using Hebrew (or Arabic for that matter). In 3.2 with the new Text layout framework, this is not needed (MAJOR IMPROVEMENT) but I cannot get it to work with dynamic text only static text. of course all works great if I upgarde to flex 4.0, and use the textBox component, but I do not want to do that, so late in the development phase of the application. Here is a small mxml which shows the problem: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns:TryComps="appComponents.*" xmlns:text="flash.text.*"> <mx:Style source="css/flashTypeStyles.css"/> <mx:Script> import mx.resources.ResourceManager; </mx:Script> <mx:Label text="Using text:TextField FIXED : THIS WORKS"/>  <text:TextField text="עברית כותבים מימין לשמאל"/> <mx:Label text="Using text:TextField DYNAMIC : THIS DOES NOT WORK"/> <text:TextField text="{resourceManager.getString(Locales.LOCALE_BUNDLE,'BI_DIRECTIONAL_TEXT')}"/> </mx:Application> Any one has an idea ??? The 'BI_DIRECTIONAL_TEXT' is an entry in the property file which has the same value as the static text above. The run time error I get is : TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null. Thanks Eli7

If you look thru the TextField class in the help documents you will find all of the properties you can manipulate. One property is the wordWrap property which will keep you text from going off the side of the textfield. Another is multiline which will allow the textfield to have more than one line. And another is the autoSize property which will make your textfield adjust to fit the amount of text loaded into it.
