I have an odd issue while using FlashCS4. I have a textfield that, when set to STATIC TEXT works absolutely fine, in the correct font. If I set it to DYNAMIC TEXT, the text shows up as Arial or some other default on systems where the selected font isn't available. It shows up in the proper font on systems that have the font installed. ...

Ok- here's a painfully easy one I bet -- I'm aware of how to use EX4 to filter most pieces of the xml I need however how can I filter an XML list such as the one below to check say --- if a dog is a beagle? preferably as a Boolean. var theXml:XML = <animals> <animal dog ="poodle" cat="Siamese" /> <animal dog ="beagl...

I'm creating a project in flex builder but it's not using the flex framework, it's just pure actionscript. At the moment I have some bitmap resources embedded for drawing things, but I'd like a little animation and thought I could create swf animations for them in flash and use the [Embed()] thing to embed them in the actionscript proje...
I am trying to extend the flex datagrid component so that I can have an "add new row" row like MS Access but I can't get it to work. I have tried a few different methods but I can't get anything to actually work. By extend I really mean alter the Adobe code as some of the private vars I needed to do something else but I should be able t...

Ok, i have asked something similar before, but never go to the solution i need. So am starting a new stack to not confuse my issues, and to make a little clearer. What i need to do I have multiple flash objects on a html page, they are all identical, and all of them need to be sync'd with the correct time. In its current state, each on...
Hi, I'm doing a AS3 project in Eclipse and trace alot of values. I though it would be nice to have a toString() function in every class, at the bottom of each class as the last function, but i dont want to do this by hand for 500+ files. Is there a quick and good way of doing this automated? How would you go about this? Thanks in adv...
Hi, I need to use DataProvider class and i cannot find the package that contains it. In all examples I saw they use fl.data, but I'm using flex builder sdk 3.4 beta and it doesn't have such a package. Any clue? Thanks, Nava ...
How would one go about adding fl.controls.* to AS3 projects developed under Linux? Apparently it is not part of Flex 3SDK for Linux (which is what I am using to compile) or maybe it is and I am not importing it correctly..I downloaded this SDK last March, maybe time for update? Looking at Adobe Official Docs for fl.controls does not me...
Hello, I am wondering if there exists a token_get_all() method in Actionscript like PHP does have? Further thinking, I am wondering if there are different versions of such function in any languages used for web developing. Such as token_get_all_html(), token_get_all_cpp(), that will split the input of HTML/C++/Java/PHP into tokens. Th...
Something that should be very easy has been the quest of my day. How do you set a variable attribute of a xml element? This is what I expected to work: xmlElement.attribute(variableAttr) = "the variable attribute is set to this string"; However, I'm getting some error that this value can only be retrieved as a reference and not set....
I'm building a video player here: http://leongaban.com/stackoverflow/RTMP/ It's streaming RTMP, and I'm trying to get my video to seek correctly if the user clicks on the groove bar (gray bar under the green progress bar) Currently it does not seek and gives me a NaN on my duration variable and an error on my progress bar width variable...
I have a piece of software I'm working on that is using a viewstack with 3 canvases. With the change event I need to look for index 2 which is the last canvas when it changes to this canvas I need it to grab data from inputs from the previous two canvases. Within the viewstack events I've assigned the function change() to the event chil...
My animation is 100 frames total. I want to set a range of frames. Is is there a command to play only frames 50 to 75? I want begin-and-end frame to be in an object I can call on later. There must be a "best" way of doing this! 100 frame total <==play 50 to 75==> SAMPLE These commands work, but I would end up adding labels and st...
This is basically a continuation of a question of mine from yesterday, "Foregoing intialization on a page" (And btw, kudos to all who give selflessly in this forum to help others - need to do more of that myself.) So anyway, I was told about HistoryManager, BrowserManager and SharedObject, and so quickly ascertained that its no problem...
How do I resolve the error of duplicate variable definitions? There has to be separate namespaces and use for each definition, but I'm just not seeing it. CODE I didn't write this, but I've been trying to unpackage it and change the classes and seem to have broken it. I want to use this for time-scaling the playback of my movies.There'...
This is a problem that's best explained in code. I don't see how active_button.upState, which I know is a TextField (see trace statements), mysteriously turns into a DisplayObject when I try to access the textColor property. I've included the error messages below for reference. Also, why is it that when I have an object that I know i...
