Identify the size of unwrapped text in TextArea

Here is the deal.
I have a popup of fixed width where I dynamically add the textAreas. The PercentWidth of textArea is 100.
Once the long url (as my custom text) is added into the definite textArea.htmlText, the text is wrapped.
What I need is: I'd like to dynamically widen the width of popup if any of textArea has a long text that is going outside the popup borders, so it would not wrap. So far I'd like to have the textArea.textWidth correctly returned, without any wrapping. But since the textArea has already been added as a child to the popup's stage, its size cannot be dynamically extended.
If I simply set the textArea.width to, say, the width of popup, the textArea.textWidth is still the same small like before.
I'm really stopped at this point. Please assist. Thanks.

Which version of Flex?  If you don't want wrapping text, use Label

  • Global change to the size of a text frame in InDesign 5.5?

    Is there a way to make a global change to the size of a text frame in InDesign 5.5? I just laid out a book and the size needs to go up half an inch.

    If you have worked properly and have done following:
    Set up Masters with margins and columns,
    Aligned all text frames with the margins,
    Turned on Layout Adjustment,
    You will only change the margins on the Master and it will change every page.
    If not …
    you have to do it manually.

  • How to calculate the size of a Text Field?

    Is there a way to calculate the number of characters allow in a Text Field? If a uer type over this number of characters a popup window will appear telling the user that he/she has too much texts. Of course I could use the Limit Length, but I have to manually put texts into this text field and count them. If the Limit Lenth number is too small, the texts does not fill the whole text field. If the number is too big then the texts does not get printed.

    There would be no easy way to do this. You'd need to do some pretty fancy calculations, it would all depend on the size of the field, what font is used, the font size, whether it's been bolded, underlined, italicized, etc etc.
    What are you trying to accomplish? Make it so that the user can type in the text field until it fills and then have it stop without scroll bars coming up to allow him to keep typing?

  • How to determine the size of selected text

    Hi
    I'd like to draw a box around some selected text (a textRange), however I can't figure out how to detemine the size or position of the text.  The overall size of a textFrame is possible to find (not sure about position), but when you've got just a few characters selected I don't see any way to get the size or position.  Any ideas?

    You may have to do some testing of your own with this… I tested here and 'think' its OK but could have overlooked something… For me the best way to get this data is to outline the type store the info in a variable then undo the outlining process… You can then continue your script with info in hand… An example that draws a box over each selected character… I cheated with only the one text frame but you can resolve that? You could easy use math.min & math.max to draw around an array of bounds… I didn't bother with a load of tests it expects selected text range as is… have fun…

  • How to identified the size of table logging (SCU3)

    hi SAP Expert,
    currently i'm activating the table logging via parameter REC\CLIENT = ALL, understand that this will accumulate the log times to times, is there anyway i can identified how big is the log file already? since i'm concern the log files would make my hardisk full. thanks for any respon.
    Regards
    Hariyono

    Table logging write to table DBTABPRT, just check the size of the table in DB02 (or number of entries in SE16) you can track the growth of the table and wipe the contents once the data is been consumed by whoever requested it.
    You can check in DB02 in what tablespace the table is located and make sure that theres enough space in the filesystem for the table to grow without causing inconvenients.

  • ComboBox Problem to change the size of selected text in JTextPane.

    hi 2 all!
    I have a problem in combo box actions, when i change the item in the combo its set is not set at that time but that action is performed when next action is taken, i have used combobox.setAction(new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(" click", 12);) command to set the size of the selected text
    Plz suggest the solution also if possible,plz provide some code for this
    Action action1 = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(
                                                 "double click", 12);
                                       Action action2 = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(
                                                 "double click", 14);
                                       Action action3 = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(
                                                 "double click", 18);
    s2 = (String) cb7.getSelectedItem();
                                       if (s2.equals("Small")) {
                                            cb7.setAction(action1);
                                            e1.setSource(cb7);
                                                      } else
                                       if (s2.equals("Medium")) {
                                            cb7.setAction(action2);
                                            e1.setSource(cb7);
                                                                          } else if (s2.equals("Large")) {
                                            cb7.setAction(action3);
                                            // e1.setSource(cb7);
    when i chooze any combobox item then according to that item i set the Action on ComboBox but that action is not working properly on the selected text in the JTextPane..means selected text in JText Pane is not changes its Size according to the comboBox selected ITEM.
    PLZ plzzzzzzzzzz help me:((.i will be thankfull to u.
    thanx in advance..

    this code is not working properly according to the action i set on comboBox.Thats correct, the setAction() method is used to invoke an existing Action on the combo box, not create a new Action.
    What you need to do is have a single action that uses the information from the item that was selected to build a dynamic Action to change the font. Something like:
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
         JComboBox comboBox = (JComboBox)e.getSource();
         int fontSize = Integer.parseInt( comboBox.getSelectedItem().toString() );
         Action fontAction = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction("size", fontSize);
         fontAction.actionPerformed(null);
    }

  • HT2523 Is there a way to increase the size of textedit text on the screen without increasing the font size? (as can be done in WORD for MAC)

    In Microsoft Office for Mac WORD I can make text appear larger on the monitor screen without increasing the font size for printing purposes.  I have not been able to figure out if/how this can be done in TextEdit.  In TextEdit, if I set the font size to between 10 and 12, the text appears very small on the screen.  But if I increase the font size, the font size will be way too large when I print such a document.

    Thank you very much for your prompt reply and suggestion. 
    Actually after I posted my question, I saw link to Text Edit viewable font, which pointed out the small up and down arrows in the lower right corner of the Text Edit screen. 
    However, it is also good to keep in mind the Universal Access options.

  • Increasing the size of designated text area in a photo book

    I am using IPhoto version 9.5.1 on a MacBook Pro (10.9.2). I am trying to increase the designated text area so that I can increase the font size. This will allow for the final product to be more legible. Currently, I am featuring a student per page. The designated text areas are 4 separate sections on these pages.  I would like to include on each page the following.
    Aviator
    Person's Name
    Algebra I
    Homecoming Dance
    When I increase the font size in those 4 designated areas, the red caution triangle with exclamation point states, 'This text doesn't fit the designated text area!' 
    I have two questions.
    1. How do I increase the text area so the larger text will fit and print properly?
    2. Is there an overall command that I can input these increases to the text area so that the 36 papes have the same changes in the designated text areas? Otherwise, I will have to make those changes for each individual pages that are featuring a student.

    You can "adjust" a photo frame or text box size on a page with the following key combinations:
    Command + Option +⬆arrow:  increase frame height.
    Command + Option +⬇arrow:  decrease frame height.
    Command + Option + ➜ arrow:  increase frame width.
    Command + Option + ⬅ arrow:  decrease frame width.
    To adjust its position on the page use these key combinations:
    Command + Control + ➜ arrow:  move frame to right.
    Command + Control + ⬅  arrow:  move frame to left.
    Command + Control + ⬆ arrow:  rotate frame counter clockwise.
    Command + Control + ⬇ arrow:  rotate frame clockwise.
    You can conver the standard frame (on the left) to this one (on the right)
    Always be sure to create a PDF file of the book for proofing before ordering a book. This Apple document describes how to create the PDF file: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture. Keep the PDF file to compare it with the printed copy when it arrives.

    Al of a sudden my iPhone 5C has extremely large text size.  It's so large I cannot swipe, pinch or make it respond to any command.  Any suggestions on what happened, how to fix it and how to prevent it from happening again?

    Hi Marylane,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    Your description of the text being extremely large makes me think you have activitated the Zoom feature of Accessibility. See the following article and use the same command to disable Zoom as to enable it:
    To enable Zoom, use three fingers and double-tap the screen.
    To increase the level of Zoom, use three fingers to double-tap and hold, then move your fingers up or down on the screen to increase or decrease magnification.
    Use Accessibility features in iOS - Apple Support
    Cheers,
    Jeff D.
