Subject: [Flashcoders] Text area focus
Hello,
I have a text box or area on a form that I would like to know when a
user has put the cursor in it or not.
Wither it has focus or not. I am working in AS2. Please don't grit
your teeth too much :-)
For some reason I am not able to get the focus of my text area.
Anyone have this code in their scrap files?.. lol
TIA

[Flashcoders] CS5 questions
Hi, Well feeling like a kid with a shiny new toy having just installed CS5 - first time in my career I have managed to get the latest version of Flash within a year of it being released, yay :) (Will probably be shouting at my computer within about 5 minutes, but as long as it does not crash every 5 minutes like CS4 when I try to compile, my tourettes may not be triggered) Anyway, playing with the different workspaces and I am trying to open the Projects panel in Designer layout, but it keeps coming up with Code Snippets instead. Anyone know how I can get the Projects panel up in this mode, or am I being gently patronised by someone who does not think I can be a Devigner ;) Glen ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] CS5 questions
Okay, that's a bit better maybe opening an FLA was useful there - oops :-[ And it compiles without crashing - I might even go so far as to say it's fast, well faster than those that came before it, but not as fast as FD with fcsh :) Looking forward to working with an IDE again...

[Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
Hi All - Wondering if there are any hacks to trigger a 'RollOver' script when hovering over a 'a href' link in an html textfield. Currently using TextEvent.LINK,to trigger links - but would like to show a tooltip on rollover (of that part of text). So far the only solution i can think of is using : TextField.getCharIndexAtPoint(x:Number, y:Number) create this - but it seems like this could be quite long winded solution. Any other ways of achieving this? Thanks Karim ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

var url = ;
if (index = 0) {
var fmt:TextFormat = txt.getTextFormat (index, index + 1);

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
The HREF link is only part the the textfields content, and each textfield can have more than one link amongst other copy and need to show relevant tooltip only when user is hovering over the 'a HREF' parts of the html textfield.

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
sorry, I tacked on that last if statement. It should probably read
if (url.length 0) {
// begin tooltip code
}
maybe you want to check if its an appropriate web url with a regExp first,
but I think you get the idea.

[Flashcoders] Naming a loaded swf
I am loading a swf via something like:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
function startLoad(dfile:String)
{
var nRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(dfile);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Evenet.COMPLETE.onComplete);
loader.load(nRequest);
}
function onComplete(loadEvent:Event):void
{
addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
}
startLoad(some.swf);
I want to be able to name the swf that gets loaded... right now it is just
getting a random name like: instance77
How can I name it?

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
Regardless of whether you are using multiple TextFormat objects or htmlText,
using getTextFormat(begin, end), the textFormat will have the appropriate
url.
This is a quick dirty test. Glad I could help out. I'm posting the code for
my test in case anyone else finds it useful.
One thing to note!
If text in a textfield does not fill the text field, a error can appear. In
my code below you can see that error. A link on the bottom line will
register when the cursor is in empty space below the link, but not directly
over it. The x property of the mouse is triggering the rollover. Maybe
someone else can explain this issue better.
AS3 - Timeline code
var txt:TextField = new TextField ();
txt.width = txt.height = 150;
txt.multiline = true;
txt.wordWrap = true;
txt.htmlText = when registered, all a href=\www.google.com\links/a in
text fields will update a href=\www.theflashblog.com\the status bar./a
hahahahah
txt.border = true;
txt.x = txt.y = 100;
addChild(txt);
addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, captureEnterFrame)
function captureEnterFrame (e:Event):void {
var index = txt.getCharIndexAtPoint (txt.mouseX, txt.mouseY);
var url = ;
if (index = 0) {
var fmt:TextFormat = txt.getTextFormat (index, index + 1);
if (fmt.url) url = fmt.url;
}
if (url) {
displayTooltip(url, new Point (mouseX, mouseY));
} else {
removeTooltip();
}
}
function displayTooltip(url:String, pos:Point):void {
if (getChildByName(ToolTip)) return;
var tf:TextField = new TextField ();
tf.name = ToolTip;
tf.autoSize = left;
tf.text = url;
tf.background = true; tf.border = true;
tf.backgroundColor = 0x00FF;
tf.x = pos.x + 5;

Re: [Flashcoders] Naming a loaded swf
Loader.content is a DisplayObject. DisplayObject have a .name property
function onComplete(loadEvent:Event):void {
var loadedContent = loadEvent.target.content;
loadedContent.name = MyName;
addChild(loadedContent);
}

P.S. this is all right in as3 livedocs... Not that this is for you
specifically Ted, but more people need to learn how to read the
documentation.

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
I've added a boolean - to save a few function calls - and also using a Timer (
instead of an enterframe) on a slowish delay - to save a few processor cycles.
private var tooltipFlag : Boolean = false;
/**
* @method
* @tooltip
* @param
* @return
*/
private function detectMouseOverLink( e : TimerEvent = null ) : void {
var index : Number = label.getCharIndexAtPoint (label.mouseX,
label.mouseY);
var url : String = ;
if (index 0) {
var fmt:TextFormat = label.getTextFormat (index, index + 1);
if (fmt.url) url = fmt.url;
}
if ( ( url.length 0 )
( ! tooltipFlag ) ) {
tooltipFlag = true;
trace('show - url: ' + url + ' tooltipFlag: ' + tooltipFlag );
} else if ( url.length == 0 tooltipFlag ) {
tooltipFlag = false;
trace('hide - url: ' + url + ' tooltipFlag: ' + tooltipFlag );
}
}
If i get time - i might turn this into a utility class - so you can do
something like:
txtRollOverManger.addRollOverListener( txt , callback ) -
or
txtRollOverManger.removeRollOverListener( txt , callback )
i have a few textfields - quite a few timers might affect performance...
thanks...

Re: [Flashcoders] Naming a loaded swf
It's possible that because the content property is the root class of the
loaded swf that you have to set the name property of your document class.
parent.swf
Loader.load(child.swf)
child.swf
this.name = MyName;
Maybe that is what you need to do. I'm going to run a test to find out

So far the only solution i can think of is using :

create this - but it seems like this could be quite long winded solution.
Any other ways of achieving this?

Okay - can you store a reference to the loaded content that you can use

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
TextEvents were a big improvement over asfunction (AS2 hack) - still - it
would be nice if TextEvent had listeners for link rollovers / rollouts.
I like the fact you can still get to the url through using
textformat/getCharAtPoint.
Tooltip data is stored in the link:
a href=event:http://www.url.com/#this is a tooltip/a
So it's easily updatable.
thanks again very useful bit of code.
@ Henrik - Not used the TextLineMirrorRegion or the flash.text.engine - but
will look into it
when i get some time - looks like that could provide the functionality for

while someone was typing.
The reason for the code I was seeking with this request was because
the code previously would eat up a lot of memory. It made my computer
fan run wild if the form sat in my browser.
Now it does not thanks to Amol. :))
Here is the code competed. Again, it is as2, but would love to see an
as3 conversion.
I might get to that later, but welcome any comers.
//commentxt_mc is the textfield name, 650 is the number of characters
allowed. You will also want to set the text box max characters to
this when creating your text box.
var numChar;
commentxt_mc.onSetFocus = function() {
onEnterFrame = function() {
numChar = 650 - commentxt_mc.length;
if (numChar == 0) {
maxChar = Max Characters Reached;
} else {
maxChar = Max Char: + numChar.toString(); //Have another text
box with the var maxChar to display the results while typing.
}
}
};
commentxt_mc.onKillFocus = function() {
onEnterFrame = null;
};
Best,
Karl

Subject: [Flashcoders] Text area focus
Hello,
I have a text box or area on a form that I would like to know when
a user has put the cursor in it or not.
Wither it has focus or not. I am working in AS2. Please don't
grit your teeth too much :-)
For some reason I am not able to get the focus of my text area.
Anyone have this code in their scrap files?.. lol
TIA

[Flashcoders] anone else @flashbelt10?
Predicted winners: CS5, cornstarch AIR 2.0 4or mobile, cornstarch;. Losers: Apple, Apple. Flash 10.1 on Android 2.2 is unbelievably fast. Saw a a 2000 triangle 3-d flight simulator on a NexusOne - flawless. Lots of wink-wink stuff about 10.1 for RIM too. The big letdown (and quick presentation repurposing) about no Flash generated apps on the iThingies has not been all bad - at least two presenters have instead chosen to demonstrate cornstarch and water on audio speakers instead: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kevqQHZSeao ... and FWIW, I saw a Flash app exported to an iPhone - yup, in native code, although 5MB for a hello world app. It was funny noticing many of the attendees sporting iPads Monday - hardly any today. Apparently, the word the bruhaha had not gotten out to all attendees, but it's impossible to miss the Apple animosity at the conference - there's been only a single presenter that did not at least take a couple humorous jabs at Apple, most speak directly about the dust-up. Look me up at tomorrow if you're here. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Text area focus
It seems like you don't really need to bother about gaining or losing focus
here. Just listening to the change event will do the job and you could
remove the enter_frame.
commentxt_mc.onChanged = function(tf:TextField):Void {
var numChar:Number = 650 - tf.length;
if (numChar == 0) {
maxChar = Max Characters Reached;
} else {
maxChar = Max Char: + numChar.toString(); //Have another
text box with the var maxChar to display the results while typing.
}
};
The equivalent in AS 3.0 is very similar, though a bit more verbose (as
usual!):
commentxt_mc.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,handleTextChange);
function handleTextChange(e:Event):void {
var tf:TextField = e.target as TextField;
if(!tf) {
return;
}
var numChar:Number = 650 - tf.length;
var maxChar:String = ;
if (numChar == 0) {
maxChar = Max Characters Reached;
} else {
maxChar = Max Char: + numChar.toString(); //Have another text box with
the var maxChar to display the results while typing.
}
}
