Not seeing all letters in dynamic text fields
I think that I have properly embedded the Verdana font (see image below). However, in my Flash game, dynamic text fields do not show certain letters, such as X and J. What am I missing? Is there a safer font that I should be using besides Verdana?
First I dressed up as a ninja, then hung upside down from a chandelier by my legs while cradling my laptop with my left arm. Then I produced the image shown below by accessing Text > Font Embedding.
I also observed that the embedded font was added to my library (below).

Dynamic Text Field is not displaying foreign characters... HELP!
I have a dynamic text field that is not displaying foreign characters properly. They appear as boxes.
Here's what I've tried.
Under properties for the text field, I clicked on the embed characters button. In there, I pasted all the special characters I would need and clicked okay. Shouldn't this be enough for the text to display properly? What am I missing? Please help...More info: I'm noticing that in the actual dynamic text field in my .FLA file, if I type a foreign character like é, it pops up as a block. My family font is set to New Caledonia... is it possible that New Caledonia doesn't have those particular glyphs? The thing that doesn't make sense to me though is, last year when I made this card, it worked fine with New Caledonia... Any help is greatly appreciated!!

How do I embed multiple font outlines in dynamic text field
Can anyone tell me how I can embed multiple font outlines in
Flash MX so I can get smooth text in a dynamic
text frame? I want to use Regular, bold and italic in various
parts of the text.
I was using the Character button in the properties manager
and tried to include all Characters. That does not work.
In the Properties manager I can choose Bold and/or Italic.
But it becomes a universal setting that overrides my HTML tags in
my external txt file that I am importing. I dont want all my text
to be bold.
If I dont select them in the properties, however, Flash will
not embed the font that it needs.
Is there a different way to embed fonts other than under the
Character Tab?
I tried to import fonts to the library, but can not select
them.
Your help would really be appreciated.

Problm in dynamic text field when i view it in IE
Hi
i have used dynamic text field for UI Lebels, text is comming
from xml file.i have TextFormat as well .
when i publish and see out put in swf file it is looking good
and all the text in the same place where i have placed it. but if i
see it in IE browser.
all text is moved littile bit as well as its not taking
formating of the text .. means if i have used Arial bold 10 .. but
is not showing bold ...
can any body help on this issueIt is a very simple to solve issue:
There is a line break in your CSS code on the main page in the background image url.
Current Firefox versions do not like that.
<code>body {
background:#000000 url("http://lh4.ggpht.com/_fKjKe5YUrXg/SjKITFBNaxI/AAAAAAAADWI/u5ohtFDhVc0/black-%20lighter.jpg
background-position: down-left;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
margin:0;
color:#E895CC;
font: x-small "Trebuchet MS", Trebuchet, Verdana, Sans-serif;
font-size/* */:/**/small;
font-size: /**/small;
text-align: center;
</code>
This should fix it:
<code>body {
background:#000000 url("http://lh4.ggpht.com/_fKjKe5YUrXg/SjKITFBNaxI/AAAAAAAADWI/u5ohtFDhVc0/black-%20lighter.jpg");

External Embedded Fonts, Dynamic Text Fields, Latest?
Hi all,
I'm stuck in Flash8 land. Mostly because I use mProjector and
MDM Zinc to extend flash projectors and neither support AS3
correctly to date. That said..
Is a Flash8 SWF capable of using fonts embedded in "other"
SWFs? I realize this is an ongoing difficulty and a well known area
of confusion and well, I'm confused. All the attempts I've made so
far in linking have succeeded or failed in various ways, but never
fully work.
What I'd love to do is use dynamic text fields populated by
data from a database (or XML file), with CSS styling, using fonts
that are embedded in a 'master font SWF'. (and I'd like ice cream
with that too!)
I import fonts into, say, 'shared.fla'. I set them all up for
exporting via linkage (to shared.swf). I open up my other FLAs
(say, main.fla) and I drag the fonts from the shared.fla library
into main.fla's library. In looking at the linkage, I see it
properly set it to Import for Runtime Sharing (shared.swf). I can
see the font available in the main.fla font list and can select it
and use it just fine. I have to set the dynamic text field to embed
fonts to actually see them (and also
myTextField.setStyle("embedFonts",true)).
Now all that works well and fine, but the kicker is when I
want CSS to style my text. If I specify a embedded font linkage
identifyer in CSS, the text disappears. i.e. I load 'style.css' and
I have h1 { font-family: someEmbeddedFont; }, the <h1> text
will now disappear.
Any clues in how I can specify a font to use in CSS that's
embedded so it'll work, WITHOUT This font needed to be embedded in
the actual library (as in, not a linked asset)? Because it works
fine if I embed the font into every single SWF. But when I try to
use it as a shared asset, this doesn't work.
Any ideas on how someone can achieve this?
This is so I can changed my shared.swf and supply all new
fonts with the same linkage identifiers and change the font in a
whole project without re-exporting any other SWFs.
Thanks for any info!I guess it's amazing but I honestly, wholly cannot get this
to work.
I made a new AS2 Flash 8 FLA (Forte.fla) with only the Forte
font with a size of 22 in the library. The name of the library
element was Forte. The linkage was set to "Export for Actionscript"
and "Export in first frame".
I made another FLA (main.fla) Flash8 AS2. In actionscript I
created an empty movie clip named "Asset_Forte" at the next highest
depth and Asset_Forte.loadMovie("Forte.swf"). I also made a dynamic
text field on the stage of this main.fla document and set it to
Arial 22pt (no bold or italics, etc). I did not embed anything into
it.
I made a TextTormat object (my_fmt) and set my_fmt.font =
"Forte";. I put some text in the dynamic text field to start so I
just applied the formatting (status_text.setTextFormat(my_fmt);).
This did not work. I started adjusting random things like
naming the font in the Forte.swf library to Forte22 and tried
my_fmt.font = "Forte22";. That didn't work.
I adjusted the linkage to "Export for runtime sharing" and
specified Forte.swf as the SWF to share from. This did not work.
I then dragged the font from the Forte.fla's library (while
"Export for runtime sharing" was enabled) into the library of
main.fla. I checked the link and it was proper, "Import for runtime
sharing, Forte.swf". I used both linkage attempts again (Forte and
Forte22) with my_fmt.font and neither worked.
Would it be possible at all to get a couple FLAs from you
that examplifies how you do this particular trick? I can't seem to
get the settings right. I would be indebted to you! -

If else conditional statements for dynamic text fields (as 2.0)
This is about a self assesment quiz.There will be four options and each one has a scale from1-5 ie "option a" has 1mark, "option b" has 2marks,"option c" has 3 marks, "option d" has 4marks and "option e" has 5 marks and we count the answerd and we display the scor for example if there are 20 question in it if they answered "option e" 5 times the score will be
25 and option d 5 times the score will be 20,anf if "option c" for 5 times the score will be 15,and "option b" for 3 times the score will be 6 and "option a" two times the score will be 2, and we add up all the score and display in a dynamic text field called "scor" and the total score is 68.And i have another dynamic text field called "tsc" where i have to display the tags like excellent , good, better ......ect.
Till now every thing is fine but i am unable to compare them it is displaying excellent even if i get 10 marks, i am unable to configure where i am going wrong.
If the score is greater than 55 "tsc" should display Excellent, if the score is greater than 41 or less than 55 "tsc" should display Best, if the score is greater than 26 or less than 40 "tsc" should display Better,if the score is none of the above "tsc" should display Poor.
This is my code on the submit button:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("sQ");
if (scor>=55) {
tsc = "Excellent";
} else if (scor == 41 && scor<=55) {
tsc = "Best";
} else if (scor == 26 && scor<=40) {
tsc = "Better";
} else if (scor == 10 && scor<=25) {
tsc = "Good";
} else {
tsc = "Poor";
where:
"sQ" is the frame name where i am displaying the score details
"scor" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying total score
"tsc" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying the tags llike good, Excellent, better, poor.....etc
Plese help.......Use trace commands to make sure that what you think you are processing is what is actually hapenning.
Your middle conditionals are not written as you described them... any "==" should be ">="
It is recommended you get away from using the textfield var option... it can be troublesome to work with. Just assign an instance name to the textfield and assign the values to its text property... for instance, say you name it tscField, then you would use tscField.text = "Excellent";
Also, realize that the gotoAndStop command will not happen until after all the code executes in case that matters
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("sQ");
trace(scor);
if (scor>=55) {
tsc = "Excellent";
} else if (scor >= 41 && scor<=55) {
tsc = "Best";
} else if (scor >= 26 && scor<=40) {
tsc = "Better";
} else if (scor >= 10 && scor<=25) {
tsc = "Good";
} else {
tsc = "Poor"; -
Printing - With Dynamic Text Fields
Hello,
i wonder if anyone can help me........i know there are a lot
of posts already on how to print out dynamic text but all of them
seem to be using scrolling text fields.
However my problem isn't even as complex as this but i still
can't work it out.
At the moment i have a form of text boxes which the user
inputs text.............from here there is a print
button.........in order to compile all of the answers together i
have created a movie clip.........with the layout of the printed
page on it, and placed this on the main timeline. Inside this movie
clip to be printed i have dynamic text fields...which link to the
text fields which the users inputted data in, therefore both sets
of text fields contain the same data, when you change one the other
should change.
I have set up a very simple printJob command to print out the
movie clip named print_mc and it prints the page even the outline
of the text boxes but it doesn't print out the content which
appears on the screen. my code is attached below.......please if
anyone could help i would be very grateful :)
print_btn.onRelease = function() {
_global.aOneVar =oneAPone.text;
_global.aTwoVar =oneAPtwo.text;
print_mc.gotoAndStop("2");
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var result:Boolean = myPrintJob.start();
if (result) {
myPrintJob.addPage("print_mc", null, {printAsBitmap:false},
2);
myPrintJob.send();
delete myPrintJob;
} else {

I'm with ya. Presumably, then there's a font symbol in your
Library,
right? And its Linkage identifier is "arial_font"?
> If I keep the xml/css but comment out embedFonts, then
> the content works but is not anti-aliased.
That's because your CSS calls for Franklin Gothic Book,
which hasn't
been imported into your Library as a font symbol (at least,
you haven't said
it has).
> I need both of these to work at the same time.
Give Franklin Gothic Book a Linkage identifier, and use that
name in
your CSS.

Tables in dynamic text field???
Hi,
I am trying to organize an html text in flash dynamic text
field into tables, I tried using
testText=<textformat
tabstops='[50,100]'><b>Name\tAge\tDepartment</b>\nTim\t32\tFinance\n<u>Edwin</u>\t46\tMar keting</textformat>
but this works only when text variable testText is set inside
flash script. When loaded dynamicly using LoadVars all
<textformat tabstops... tabs are just not seen and are omitted.
I tried to google some answers and I found that textformat tabs
work only for embedded text. Ok, so I used actionscript command
myText.embedFonts = true;
but then I lost all visible text. How come that Flash doesn't
have some easy way to create so basic thing as tables? Thanks for
any answer,
Zbynek
here is my fla script:nobody any ideas?!

Linking a class to a dynamic text field to load XML data.
Hi,
I'm quite new to ActionScript and would be grateful for any help here.
I want to load text into a dynamic text field (called 'about_tab') using a class depending on the language selected (by clicking on a flag icon) by the user.
I managed to get this to work when the ActionScript was written directly in the timeline, but am having problems with doing the same thing via a class.
This is my class file:
package
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.Event;
public class ChangeLang extends SimpleButton
public function ChangeLang()
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, switchLang);
trace("ChangeLang class working");
public function switchLang(event:MouseEvent):void
var lang = event.target.name;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("languages/"+lang+".xml");
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var substance:XML;
function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void
trace("function xmlLoaded is running");
substance = new XML(loader.data);
about_tab.text = substance.about_lbl;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
loader.load(req);
Here's one of my XML files (the other is the same except "About" is written in German):
<substance>
<about_lbl>About</about_lbl>
</substance>
When I run it, it returns my trace statements that the class ChangeLang and the function xmlLoaded are running, but no text appears in the dynamic text field (I should/want to see the word 'About'). I get this error message:
1120: Access of undefined property about_tab
The problem, I'm guessing, is in the part in red in my code. I think I need to target the text field in the display list by creating a reference to it. If so, could someonw point out how I do this, or perhaps a tutorial that would help. I've tried adding the word stage (i.e.,stage.about_tab.text = substance.about_lbl; ) but it still doesn't connect. I guess there's something really simple I'm missing, so I apologize if this comes across as a stupid question
Thanks for any help.Hello flashrocket!
I'm also new to AS3 and I've just started using external classes and I think I know what you should do to put your code to work.
Instead of using the text field you created inside your flash file, why don't you use the "TextField" class to create an instance of this object? It's the exact same thing as when you create and instantiate a new text field inside Flash.
First, import flash.text.*; (includes classes like TextField, TextFieldAutoSize, TextFormat, TextFormatAlign, etc)
Than you just have to create a var like
public var about_tab : TextField;
or
public var about_tab : TextField = new TextField();
then, to adjust the properties of this tab you use dotsyntax as if it where on your stage like:
about_tab.x = 50; about_tab.alpha = .5; etc...
you can even create a function to "config your textField"
private function createAndConfigTextField() : void {
about_tab = new TextField(); //you only need this line if you
// only typed something like "public var about_tab:TextField;
// if instead you used "public var about_tab:TextField = new TextField(); outside
// this function, just skip this first line because you already have an instance of
// text field named "about_tab"...
about_tab.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.CENTER;
about_tab.background = true;
about_tab.border = true;
var aboutTextFormat : TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.font = "Arial";
format.color = 0x000000;
format.size = 11;
format.bold = true;
format.align = TextFormatAlign.CENTER;
about_tab.defaultTextFormat = aboutTextFormat;
addChild(about_tab);
This is just an example of what you can do... I hope you get it... let me know if you have any doubt... -

I have a dynamic text field that I want to add a UIScrollBar
to. The dynamic text field has an rssreader attatched to it so it
is reading from an xml file on the same server. When I attatch it
and go to preview my movie, it doesn't work. There is just a white
rectangle on the right side of the box with no arrows or thumb box.
I can drag my mouse over the text and highlight everything, but I
cannot get the scrollbar to work at all. I've checked to make sure
that my scrollbar is connected to my text instance. Is there
something special about dynamic text that I don't know about? Will
it only work at runtime?I found this:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dynamic_scroller.htm
I copied the actual scroller and put it in my .fla and it
worked! Now if I can only figure out links in XML... -
I've created a dynamic text field where I've insert into a lot of HTML code.
Since it's too much long I've used a default scrollbar and simply dropped it onto the field so that It's linked to that.
When I try it the bar is there but I can just see the upper arrow and the bottom one; the middle part isn't visible and I can't scroll down the HTML content.
Any idea?It's possible it will work in AS3 since I just tried it 1) didn't kick up an error, and 2) worked (using your code, so I don't know what your problem really is).
That's the trouble with having languages that allow similar things to be coded differently... it can sometimes be hard to tell. It's bad enough there are usually numerous ways to approach a design.
If I were setting an autoSize I would be using (based on the help docs)...
links.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT; -
Connecting a CSS doc to an XML file, in a dynamic text field in Flash
Hi all,
I am trying to connect a CSS file such that it applies it
self to the content of an XML file, viewed inside a dynamic text
field. So far I have managed to gather the code that "calls" the
contents of the XML file and also the code that calls the CSS file.
However, when I test the flash movie I get "undefined" instead of
the actual copy.
Attached then is the the AS code, XML file, and CSS file. I
hope you could help me connect everything together.
And of course, THANKS!!

Displaying images in dynamic text fields
Hi, I am having some difficulty getting my images to display
in a dynamic text field. The images are linked from a txt file with
the <img src=""> tag however they are not showing up in the
text area. The rest of the html are rendering fine except the image
tag. My example online is here:
www.supernaturalmedia.com.
Here is the code I used in Flash:
var style_sheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
var css_url = "global.css";
style_sheet.load(css_url);
news.StyleSheet = style_sheet;
loadVariables("projects_news.txt", this.news);
My css styles also isn't loadin so i temporarily am using
html styles for formatting. I'd like to get the css to work as
well.
My movie is published as Flash Player 6, AS 2.0.
I'd appreciate any helpful advice.
Thanks,
Stanton1. don't assign the stylesheet property of your textfield
until loading of global.css is complete. ie, use the onLoad handler
for stylesheets.
2. you have movieclip images that are linked for export and
you're using their linkage id in src property of the img
tag?
Maybe you are looking for
