Text behind flash

I bought extendstudio drop down flash program and with the
drop down the menu is 440 pixels high, WAY TOO BIG so I want the
drop down to cover text when it drops down, I have the wmode to
transparent but how do i put text behind the flash in DW?

I have also noticed this. For example in Facebook -> Scrabulous application (Scrabble)
The players scores have a black background making them impossible to read. The chat window was also the same but when I adjusted the font smoothing option in sys prefs -> Appearance and changed the minimum font size (increasing it) it sorted out the chat window problem but not the scores window.

EBS - Auto posting not working if text behind the document number

Hi,
When the document number is at the end of the payment reference, there is no problem.
    However, when there is text behind the document number, the posting rule doesn't work anymore.
    The autoposting also fails when there is a seperator (like a comma) directly added to the document number.
-   In the posting rule for invoice numbers (BE51), it is able to find multiple invoice numbers and clear these together.
    We were expecting this posting rule will behave the same, so when a customer mentions more than 1 document number,
    it is able to find them all and clear if they fulfill the criteria (total amount of the documents matches the amount received).
    But because of 1st mentioned problem, system doesn't clear anything because of additional text present.
I am look help to solve this issue
Thanks.
With regards,

Can't get dynamic text in Flash 8 pro to work

Hi,
This is driving me nuts. I am using SWObject to send a
variable to my Flash 8 swf. The swf is basically a header that
plays a video and I want to put the name of the web page
dynamically on top of it. Sounds simple right. Well I can not get
it to work. In the past I have done dynamic text boxes without any
problem.
I have uploaded all the files to my clients server (
including the fla and the HTML page that accesses the swobject code
I have also tried other more conventional means to load the
Variables ( in the URL address and using Flashvars with a normal
object and embed tag ) Nothing seems to work.
Is there a problem with dynamic text and Flash 8?
I'm pulling my hair out any help would greatly be
appreciated, Thanks in advance.
Zip file on the
server with all the files

Hi jimWPX, I have no problems with dynamic text in Flash 8,
and I see no problems in your file.
Could it be that the js doesn't parse for Flash 8 correctly?
A quick check for version seems to suggest that it's embedding with
tags for v 6 Flash. Might be problematic.
An alternative is FlashTag.js,

which works fine for me also. Hope it helps

Problem in displaying Arabic text in flash cs3/cs4

Hi All, I'm creating one website. I have to display dynamic xmlize arabic text in flash. I have done it using flash cs3/AS3. But problem is that when text displays in flash it is not rendering as expected. Some gaps comes in the characters. But when I open my xml in browser, arabic text displays correct.
Is there any way to do it in flash cs3 or Flash cs4 using player 9? It would be really great if anyone can give me solution on this. Thanks
Chandrakant

You have to do it yourself - I don't have a ready solution. Just look into documentation how StyleSheets are used and see what properties work best for you:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.html
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/StyleSheet.html
Also, with embedded fonts you need to play with TextFormat settings and AntiAliasType
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/AntiAliasType.html
In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others.

Problem with displaying text in flash player

I have flash player 10.2.152.26 and opera 11.01 installed.
The problem is that text in flash is diplayed in an awful way like this:
http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/6918/alljo.png
And when i choose "settings" the window appears, but it doesn't react when I click on it.
Can anyone help, please?

Thanks for answering
So you have IE8 and the hardware acceleration was able to be UNchecked and FP(Flash Player) is working properly with IE.
In IE flash works fine with any settings.
When I unchecked "Hardware acceleration" checbox in IE it also became unchecked in opera, but nothing changed in opera's behavior.
When you don't use the Aero it's displayed correctly but the settings do not work. What settings are you referring to?
It's about flash settings in Opera
With aero: http://img443.imageshack.us/i/settingsh.png/
Without aero: http://img816.imageshack.us/i/settingswoaero.png/
In both cases the settings dialog is displayed like in the screenshots above, but when I click on checkbox/tabs/'close' button in it nothing happens. I can't change any settings or close it (dialog disappers only after reloading page)
Just to sum up everything mentioned above:
- In IE flash works fine regardless of any settings
- In Opera text is displayed wrong when using windows aero, and without aero theme it's displayed correct
- I didn't manage to make settings dialog work in Opera
- When I change some flash settings in IE, they are also changed in Opera
Now Flash Player works thru the browser, do you have perhaps have an addon that is conflicting? What Anti-Virus do you have Installed? Any addons of that?
I have 7 extensions installed in Opera, I've disabled all of them, but nothing changed.
I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2011, disabling it also gives nothing.

Text behind moving objects

Is there an easier way other than cropping to placing text behind (say a person) while the person is moving?

I'm assuming your video of the person wasn't shot on greenscreen so you can't key them out. You'll need to rotoscope - add a mask and animate it frame by frame. At least you'll only need to roto the sections where the text needs to go behind them.

How to put the part of text behind someone a shape or a shape?

I was thinking about something since I've gotten into magazines recently and the design of them. I was wondering how do they put part of the text behind a person on a magazine cover? Or like have have the text look like it's going around a person(like with some parts behind some parts in front of person like a ring of text around a person or a letter "O" encircling someone? I know how to achieve this in photoshop (in a probably non-standard way) but I have no clue how you would achive this in Indesign. I've attached some examples of what I'm talking about.

How are your Photoshop skills? Because you’ll need to them to silhouette the model. I’d probably just add the magazine title there, too.
I guess I've always sort of wondered about this...you can do it in Photoshop, sure. But...should you?
I mean, in Photoshop you split your image into two layers, a foreground layer and a background layer (via whatever mechanisms you like. Magic Wand tool, etc., etc.). And then you add a 3rd layer for the text inbetween those layers.
But if your cover is normally layed out in InDesign, you've got the text in InDesign already. And what if the text is more complicated than just a plain old title.
Do you split your Photoshop file into two seperate files (with transparency) and place them on seperate InDesign layers with the text on an ID layer inbetween?
That seems a bit awkward. Is there a neater solution?
(I suppose what I would really want would be the ability to have ID insert a layer of ID objects inbetween the two layers of the Photoshop file, and we know that's not possible....)
I suppose another approach is to keep 2 layers in the Photoshop file and place the image twice, on top of itself, with different layer visibility options in each one. I'm not sure if this is a Clever Idea or a Stupid Trick That Hurts.
I dunno!

Checkbox appears with text behind box in FORM

Hello,
i created a master detail page where i can also edit the master through a form (all on the same page). The check boxes in the reports are fine but in the form (to edit the master) the box appears with a text behind the box: Eigen Fust ? " id="P19_IND_EIGEN_FUST" />
So "Eigen Fust ?" is the label i set for the check box then the actual check box appears and after that the text i do not know where it is from (" id="P19_IND_EIGEN_FUST" />).
The "P19_IND_EIGEN_FUST" is the NAME of the form item i have for the check box.
This is the LOV i set for the check box item:
Select NULL d, HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,IND_EIGEN_FUST,DECODE(IND_EIGEN_FUST,'Y','CHECKED','N','UNCHECKED')) r
From KOOPOVEREENKOMSTEN
Where id = :P19_ID
Please can someone tell me why the text is placed behind the checkbox ?
Regards Doenja

No it is not the label that is shown there.
The label is before the checkbox 'EIGEN FUST ?'.
In the string that is shown behind the box the ITEM NAME from the checkbox in the form is shown. So it says : " id="P19_IND_EIGEN_FUST" />
and there P19_IND_EIGEN_FUST is the ITEM FORM name from the check box.
I really do not unserstand where that string is coming from.
Has someone any other idea ?

How to use an dynamic text from Flash in FlashBuilder with swf ?

Hello,
i'm trying to develop a game in flex builder and i got a problem with the dymanic text i've imported from flash. I want to insert a scoreboard in my application and for doing that i should use dynamic text in flash. I create a dynamic text in flash and then a import it to Flash Builder in a movie clip, and i called the dynamic text "Score". Now i've tried to use the "Score" variable to change the value of the dynamic text box un my flash builder application, but it doesn't change anything.
I read somewhere that i've got to use the score.text value to change the number of my score but that doesn't works because Flash Builder tells me that this sort of variable don't contain the .text value.
Thank you for trying to help me.
bye.

Thanks Ned,
I always welcome learning something new.
I did not know creating a new keyframe,
creates a new instance.
Yes, I had used the same dynamic text field instance name in
numerous, new layers (great observation).
With the objective to display the User's name throughout
the timeline (on and off)...
I'll attempt to paraphrase your solution;
Use a single layer to display the dynamic text field.
Extend this layer's timeline throughout the movie, or end use of the dynamic text field.
Help with this one ??
Set the visible properties to true or false as need through out the timeline.
( Does require an AS3 ? )
I'll give that a try.....
~~
Side of effect of using the above solution;
The SWF in it's attempted state, uses the dynamic text field instance, in
different places, different text sizes, on the stage, throughout the Movie.
(i.e. the User's first name appears in different sentences...)
Per the solution above,
I believe I will be limited to One location, one format setting.
Is this assumption correct?
I can make this work from a display / Movie point of view.
However, your first VAR concept, noted above, might be
worth exploring should more flexibility be required.
Thanks for making the time to coach...

Invisible Text in Flash Player Using Windows XP

I seem to have a problem with the Flash Player and invisible text. The Flash Player will load but there will be some buttons that are not labeled with text, so you don’t know what the buttons are, fill-in text boxes that have no text or text description, so you don’t know what to type in them, and drop-down lists that are blank, but there is supposed to be text to select from.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling FireFox, that did nothing; unistalled the Shockwave Flash Plug-in and reinstalled it, that did nothing; unistalled Flash and Shockwave standalone Players entirely, leaving only the Plug-in, nothing; uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player standalone, nothing there either. I cannot seem to find a solution and every browser I have, the same problem occurs – invisible text.
I was reading on the Adobe Forum that there is this same issue sometimes with Mac and that the problem seems to be font incompatibility.
This happens with any browser I use – Firefox, Flock, PaleMoon, IE, Opera, Netscape.
My OS is Windows XP Home Edition
Main browser is FireFox version 3.6.17
Shockwave Flash Plug-in version is 10.3.183.7
I also have the Shockwave Player standalone version 11.6.1.629
Has anyone, using Windows, had this same problem? Is there any solution?
Thanks for any advice.

Invisible text in Flash enabled web pages is a frustrating problem that is affecting Mac Users who play Farm Town (8.5+ million people on FaceBook) and probably many other games too. See this forum as an example of the problem: http://slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2531318
Before even reading this forum I did everything that appears here with no success and then everything listed in the referenced forum (above) with no success... but the following did fix the invisible text problem and I hope that it will help others too.
1. Drag the Font folder from the User directory to the trash ie. ~/Library/Fonts. (where ~ is = your User Account Name.)
Be careful; this is NOT the Font folder in the main library.
2. Download Font Finagler v1.5 beta for Mac OS 6, and clean the font cashe files following the instructions for this free shareware app.
http://homepage.mac.com/mdouma46/fontfinagler/
3. Open the Font Book app which is a new app that is included with the Mac OS Snow Leopard (10.6). (Font Book is in the Applications folder.) Read the Help info for this app and then: Choose "All Fonts" in the left column and then choose "Select Duplicate Fonts" from the Edit menu. Disable or delete all duplicate fonts that this process identifies. After dealing with the duplicate fonts, select "All Fonts" again in the left column and choose "Validate Fonts" from the File Menu. Deal with the results that it will display using the help file for guidance. Interestingly, in my case there were no corrupt fonts in my Mac system, but the validation process identified more duplicate fonts that the previous step did not find. Again deal with the findings and disable or delete the duplicate fonts.
4. Reboot your Mac and get on with using your Flash enabled web pages. Duplicate fonts seems to be the problem that cause invisible text in Flash enabled web pages.
Hope this helps you... it worked for me.

Popping text in Flash

is there a good tutorial anywhere on how to animate text in
Flash?
is it best to use the Type tool and create the text in Flash
or import it from another application?

What specifically do you want the animation to do? You could
certainly do almost any effect in Flash but additionally, there are
some 3rd party tools out there that can do tons of effects
relatively easily. If you're buiding banner ad, however, I'd stay
away from those tools because the often increase the size of your
SWF.

its displacementmap filter.
