Hi,

You should try this:

function foo()
{
flextext.text = imageTagID.content.text1.text;
} 


Where imageTagId is reference of Image tag...

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: getting text out of swf in flex



I have a mx:image tag in my flex application that references the swf
file. the swf file contains this information.
this.createClassObject(mx.controls.TextInput, text1,
this.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:10, _y:10, text:'check this out'});  

Inside Flex Builder it actually shows me a box with my swf file that
contians the textinput box with the sample text.  

Below that I have an simple button that when click runs the function:
function foo() {
flextext.text = text1.text;
}

then below the button I have another mx:textInput with an id of
flextext.  It all seems right to me but i seem to be missing something
because I continue to get the error that text1 does not exist...  Thanks.

 Subject: [flexcoders] getting text out of swf in flex
 
 
 
 Hi, I am trying to get a better understanding of how swf files work in
 flex and I have a little swf file that contains a textinput field with
 some text in it.  I want to hit a button and the text contained in
 that swf textinput field shows up in the textinput field in my flex
 application.  
 
 Here is my fuction:
 function foo() {
 flextext.text = text1.text;
 }
 where flextest is the id of a textinput box in Flex and text1 refers
 to the text box in the swf file
 

 Now, here is the problem, flex tells me that there is no property with
 the name text1.  Of course there is, but it is in my swf file?
 
 Any ideas on how to fix this?  Thanks.

You're getting the error because the Image component really has no
property named 'text1'.  What you want is to access the 'text1'
property on the Image's content property.

  alert(image.content.text1.text)

See what this displays.
