Re: [Flashcoders] Getting text from a specific line...

2006-09-21 Thread Adrian Ionut Beschea 
just a thought... you can try to retrieve all text  in your texbox and split it 
by newline
something like : 
var test_str = my_txt.text;
lines_arr = test_str.split(newline); 

Don't know if it works, never tested it.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Getting text from a specific line...

I am hoping to get some help on making a text effect in the lines of the one 
on this site:

http://www.selftitled.ca/

Pick something from the green section and press the white cross.

The thing is I can doit for a single line, but I need to do it dynamically 
for a paragraph with several lines.

With max scroll and some dummy textboxes I can calcualte the number of lines 
in a paragraph. Then I make a textfield for each paragraph and set scroll so 
it all ens up looking like a paragraph but now in individual lines. My 
problem is I still cant figure out what the text is in the particular line!

Thats what I need help with...
Or other suggestions for approaching the issue.

Thanks
Michael

RE: [Flashcoders] Getting text from a specific line...

2006-09-21 Thread Merrill, Jason 
Which text effect on that site are you trying to emulate?  I'm not sure which 
effect you're after.  The navigation on the right side or the text that appears 
when you click the cross?  The navigation on the right is done with individual 
movie clips that contain textfields, and all of those are in a movie clip that 
scrolls.  The text that appears when you click the cross is a textfield's 
values being overwritten and the whole container clip being tweened. At least, 
it seems that way to me, I could be wrong.
