  • How to vertically center InlineGraphicElements?

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to extend the InlineGraphic TLF example to insert images of varying sizes, but vertically center them in the text Flow.  I'm having trouble figuring out the correct parameters to properly center the element.  I've been playing with alignmentBaseline & dominantBaseline w/ IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER, but I don't get very promising results.  Here's a screen shot of where I'm at:
    Notice the blue box(added in post), the text MESSUP is being placed on the same line as the Lorem Ipsum text(in the string, it's Donec MESSUP).  Also, the selection box (Ctrl+A) shows breaks in the text layout.  It seems like the boxes should be shifted up.  This may be as designed, if so, how do I compact/shift the boxes up?
    For contrast, this is what it looks like without the centering:
    Source:
    package
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.text.engine.TextBaseline;
        import flashx.textLayout.container.ContainerController;
        import flashx.textLayout.edit.EditManager;
        import flashx.textLayout.elements.InlineGraphicElement;
        import flashx.textLayout.elements.InlineGraphicElementStatus;

        import flashx.textLayout.elements.TextFlow;
        import flashx.textLayout.events.StatusChangeEvent;
        import flashx.undo.UndoManager;
        [SWF(width="760", height="590", backgroundColor="0xCCCCCC", frameRate="30")]

                textFlow = new TextFlow();

                    if(obj is String)
                        var string:String = obj as String;

                        var inlineGraphic:InlineGraphicElement = new InlineGraphicElement();
                        inlineGraphic.width = imageSize;
                        inlineGraphic.height = imageSize;
                        imageSize += 20;
                        inlineGraphic.source = "http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/images/flashplayer_100x100.jpg";
                        // comment out to change back to good looking text
                        inlineGraphic.alignmentBaseline = TextBaseline.IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER;
                        inlineGraphic.dominantBaseline = TextBaseline.IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER;                   
                        paragraphElement.addChild(inlineGraphic);
                // event sent when graphic is done loading
                textFlow.addEventListener(StatusChangeEvent.INLINE_GRAPHIC_STATUS_CHANGE, graphicStatusChangeEvent);
                const bufferX:Number = 50;

                // this call compose but the graphic hasn't been loaded from the source URL yet.

                refresh();
                var em:EditManager = new EditManager(new UndoManager);

                textFlow.interactionManager.setFocus();
            protected function graphicStatusChangeEvent(e:StatusChangeEvent):void
                // if the graphic has loaded update the display
                // actualWidth and actualHeight are computed from the graphic's height
                if(e.status == InlineGraphicElementStatus.READY || e.status == InlineGraphicElementStatus.SIZE_PENDING)
                    refresh();
            protected function refresh():void
                textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers();

    Cannot, really.

  • How to Vertically center dynamic text?

    I am trying to vertically center and wrap text within a Text div. I have figured out how to center text if it is a single line, but the text that I am using will be diffrent for each user depending on what language they view the page in. How can i make sure that text is always vertically centred and wrapped regardless of how long it is?

    Could you do this with css? There is a css attribute display:table that allows you to set the paragraph attribute to align to themiddle of a region. See: http://css-tricks.com/vertically-center-multi-lined-text/
    Hope that helps.

  • How to vertically center text in table cell?

    How do I get text to center vertically in a cell?

    It centres all the text, no matter how many lines. I test the solution.
    What have you done? Explain what you are getting and exactly what it is you have done and the result you wanted. We can't see your screen.

  • How do I center a div on a fluid grid layout. The div is a video player restricted to 630px by 350 px?

    I am building a fluid grid website and I have a web player in a <div> that is styled to be no larger than 630px by 350 px. I can't figure out how to get this div to stay center on the page no matter if it is mobile, tablet, or desktop. Can anyone shed some light on this?

    Change display to block, apply the margain: auto.

  • How to vertically center text within its container

    Whether in a button, or a text element, I see no way to center the text that you type *vertically* in the container.  I'm not talking about within the box element.  I mean just the text element itself.  If I size out a text area and start typing in it, I should be able to say center it vertically.  That's what I'm looking for anyway.   Help much appreciated.

    Text elements cannot be vertically centered as they are not containers. However, you can fake that somewhat by making the line-height very large. But this means if you have text spanning two lines it would be very far apart though

  • How do i center a div tag using css?

    I am trying to learn css layout.
    Starting with a blank page, I insert a couple of AP div tags and locate them where i want.
    When i preveiw them in a browser, i notice that they are left justified. This is what i expect as they are Absolute positioned.
    I would like them to be centered as a group. Creating a layout and centerring it on the browser window seems like a basic task.
    I tried to add a div tag wrapper and center that but i cannot find where in the css panel is there any reference to center.
    seems simple enough, im stumped.
    Thanks
    Jerry
    P.S. I know as soon as i post this, i'll find the answer.

    >>I tried to add a div tag wrapper and center that but i cannot find where in the css panel is there any reference to center.
    Yeah that is the right approach and you can center by using following style:
    #wrapper{
    margin:0 auto;
    Your ap divs will then absolutely position themselves within this wrapper div which acts as parent.

  • How do I center a div in fluid grid?

    Im not able to center anything in a fluid grid. I want to set the max width to something and then center it but "margin: 0 auto" isnt working.

      width: 100%;
      float: none;
      margin-left: auto;
      margin-right: auto;

  • How do you center a title's anchor point?

    I'm sure this is a simple question but I can't find anything in the forums that answer it.
    I have a text title I want to center in the frame (horizontally and vertically, with text center aligned), but for some reason the guides seem to be wrong.  The yellow lines don't meet at the center of the frame, they meet at another point that seems to change randomly.  And the round handle (anchor point?) of the text box appears on the first line of text, rather than the vertical center of the text box.  How do I reset this or change it?  It says my anchor points are at  x 0 y 0, but that doesn't look right.  All I want to do is center all my text boxes (both horizontally and vertically) within the frame.  I hope this makes sense.  Please see images.  Thanks!

    Are you sure that your settings in Video Inspector - Transform - Position  x =  0, y = 0 and not something else?
    I don't think you can set the move handle to be other than under the first line.

  • Can I center 2 divs over each other??

    OK, I've built a website completely in Flash and I'm trying
    to lay it out with dreamweaver so that when viewed on 800x640
    resolution maxed browser window it will fit snug without any
    horizontal scrollbar (the SWF's is fit to this standard); and when
    viewed on 1024x768 maxed window it will be centered in the window
    PLUS have a background on either side (So this background should
    not appear in the 800x640 window). If that isn't clear compare
    http://www.gamespot.com.
    Right so my idea was just to put the SWF in a div and this
    background PNG in a div and center them both, while making the PNG
    width=100%.
    Well that doesn't seem to work. I guess you can't center two
    divs over each other?? The only way I can make one overlay on the
    other is by giving it an absolute position, but then of course it
    isn't centered any more.
    Any suggestions?

    Well, no, that's not what I meant.
    Background images don't do 100%. Using CSS like this -
    body { background-repeat:no-repeat;
    background-position:center; }
    will a) prevent the image from tiling, and b) will place it
    in the center of
    any size viewport. Is that what you wanted?

  • How can I center this tag?

    http://www.ivoog.com/link
    How can I center it without using background-position:center
    or margin-auto or can anyone find out how it can be centered?
    Thanks!

    :::sigh:::
    Three questions.
    1. How wide is the image that is the background of the div?
    2. Do you want the div to be the same width as that image?
    3. As Murray asked, could you please describe in detail what
    you are trying
    to do?
    Thank you,

  • How could I align all divs at once in dreamweaver?

    Hi,
    How could I align all divs at once in dreamweaver? I have more than 50 divs, and I want to change the alignments for them all at once, let we say "center" how could I do that especially I'm using the fluid grids layout.
    Thanks.

    Well, I'm doing something like this now, so I'll take a shot at it, and then we can wait for expert comments.
    <head>
    <style>
    .manydivs {
        background-color:black;
        margin-top:10px;
        margin-left:auto;
        margin-right:auto;
        margin-bottom:10px;
        border:1px solid black;}
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div class="manydivs">Yoyoyo</div>
    <div class="manydivs">Yoyoyo</div>
    <div class="manydivs">Yoyoyo</div>
    <div class="manydivs">Yoyoyo</div>
    <div class="manydivs">Yoyoyo</div>
    </body>
    Just by changing the style section, all of them will change.
    You can assign other sub-behaviors with other methods.

  • Why my Dock is always on the LEFT at the bottom. How can I center it?

    My dock is on the LEFT side at the bottom. How can I center it?

    Welcome to the Forums!
    Location is set in System Preferences > Dock. It should be centered, either centered horizontally if placed at the Bottom, or centered vertically if placed at the Left or Right.
    I take it you have it set at the Bottom, and it's along the bottom but over to the left side?
    Try deleting the file "com.apple.dock.plist" from ~/Library/Preferences.
    Hope this helps...
