Re: [swfmill] SWFmill installation problems

I imagine the reason the "ng" characters are being removed is that they aren't defined in the font, ie, they are not embedded... Try using those characters in a shorter string?

    You haven’t even provided the whole DefineEditText tag so I’ve no
    idea really, but are you sure that the text box isn’t just too
    narrow to contain its contents?

    There’s no particularly good reason why swfmill should remove two
    characters from the middle of a string, but given the state of
    some of the code I wouldn’t entirely rule out the possibility of a
    particularly crazy bug.

        I put the dll next to the exe file and everything started
        working perfectly!! thanks so much for the quick response.

        now I am trying to change some simple text in the xml file to

        rebuild into a swf and am getting some strange problems - 


        I am trying to get the swf to display the simple string
        "Testing the text system" using the following line of swfmillxml

              <DefineEditText objectID="2" wordWrap="1" multiLine="1"
        password="0" readOnly="1" autoSize="0" hasLayout="1"
        notSelectable="1" hasBorder="0" isHTML="1" useOutlines="1"
        fontRef="1" fontHeight="240" align="0" leftMargin="0"
        rightMargin="0" indent="0" leading="40" variableName=""
        initialText="&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;font
        face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;12&quot;
        color=&quot;#0066cc&quot; letterSpacing=&quot;0.000000&quot;
        kerning=&quot;1&quot;&gt;Testing the text
        system&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;">

        but for some reason, when I run xml2swf the rendering comes
        out as "Testi the text system."  Is there some sort of
        conservation of characters or something that I am missing?
         Thanks so much

            I can confirm that just putting the dll next to the exe
            will work. It would however be nice to learn how to create

            the exe itself, I almost got there using mingw.

                Blast.

                You should be able to just put it next to swfmill.exe.

                However the exe shouldn’t really require that DLL at
                all. The fact that it does is a result of my stupidity.

                I should really put out a new build without that
                requirement but I keep  putting it off and then
                forgetting, which is also a result of my stupidity.

                    Dear All,

                    I am trying to install the swfmill.exe for windows
                    vista on my computer.  I dropped the contents of
                    the download into my program files x86 folder, but

                    when I double click on the .exe I get an error saying 
                    "the program can't start because libiconv-2.dll is

                    missing from you computer.  Try reinstalling the
                    program to fix this problem."

                    I have downloaded another copy of libiconv-2.dll
                    in an atttempt to satisfy this, but I do not know
                    where to put the file. Has anyone else encountered
                    this problem/has any ideas on how to proceed?

                    Thanks much in advance,
                    Rahul Dhodapkar
