Re: [Flashcoders] Text link on hover
Hey Greg,
Yes I think it can be done with flash 7 compatibility as it's Marios
getLineMetrics solution which uses bitmapData, not the getWordRect function.
I will write the getLineMetrics function without bitmapData too.
I would definitely appreciate your help, I will get in touch with you when
I'm done with the project this is for.

Hello elibol,
Will your function (class?) be For Flash 8 only (as bitmapData was

I think this all can be done flash 7 compatible.
Well, I'm very interested.
If you'll need some help with testing and/or making a component for
non-programmers, don't hesitate to email me.

The dude at quasimondo.com tried mimicking the getLineMetrics function
from
Flex using bitmapData and getColorRect to measure the width of lines. It
fails with custom anti aliasing, maybe even anti aliasing for animation.
For
some reason converting anti aliased text to bitmap data results in a
blank
bitmapData object...
I wanted to run with his code but I found that it became far too
elaborate
as I was having to put the textfield in movieclips to get it to convert
to
bitmap data. This solution would fail too when image tags are used.
It's a great theoretical solution but not a good practical solution.

No, they were just a row of links.
What you're trying to do is really interesting :-).
As I can guess, to work with non-monospace fonts, your getWordRect
function should be quite smart...
Also, the only way I can imagine so far (in about 15 min) must
probably use a lot of duplicate textfields to get all these
dimensions.
What do you think, how often the need for hover event in html text
arises?

Re: [Flashcoders] Text link on hover
Hi Greg,
Yea, really is funny... Were your textfields multiline?
I've tried the img tag solution, the problem is that it does not snuggle
between text, the tag must be either left or right justified so it's never
where it should be.
So far I've built a function that gets the x/y ( relative to textfield ) and
w/h of a string from a textfield.
getWordRect(textField, searchString)
This returns a rectangle object that describes the word rectangle. I am
planning to use this with a mouse hotspot class I've written a while ago.
This will allow me to pass the rectangle objects and create a hover entity
that will broadcast the entity {id,x,y,w,h} to the hover event handler.
It's pretty fricken elaborate. I think this functionality will be useful as
Flex does not even support these kinds of functions so I will post this
stuff on my site soon.
I plan to implement a getLineMetrics style function as the base code that
the getWordRect is driven with will allow me to do this relatively easily.
I plan to build a sub function of getWordRect that will get all word
rectangles of a searchString.
Word to the Adobe developers, I think this is functionality the TextField

Re: [Flashcoders] Text link on hover
Wait, I know you can get hovers, but can you catch the hover 'event' and use it to, for example, call another function? I think that was his question, and as far as I know, there is no 'onHover' event. I'd like to be wrong...
