Hi
I want to mix alignments in a single line in flex using TLF.
Ie., on each given line, I'd like something like this:
the quick brown fox|1
jumps over the|2
lazy dog|3
In essence there's simply 2 columns there - the left column is right aligned, and the right column is left aligned.
The docs on this are pretty scar...
I'm currently struggling with implementing text floating in TLF. It does not support it natively, and the only solution I've found so far is to use linked containers and then combine controllers using flowComposer for single textFlow.
However, I need to implement Dropped Initial letter feature in my column layout. Initial is just a firs...
I'm trying to implement dropped initials feature into my Flex application. Since Text Layout Framework does not support floating, the only known solution is to create additional containers that will be linked together, displaying the same textflow. Width and positioning of these containers has to be set in such a way that it will pretend...

Hi,
I'm trying to embedd fonts to use with a TextArea that I have extended using the code below, but it doesn't work. I have used this code before with a TextFlow object and then set the containers with the flowComposer, but I can't get it to work with the TextArea.
When using the code below and set the text with setText, all I get is ...

I have a search and results page that I would like to highlight the keywords that were searched for, in the text of the results. It was suggested that I use TextLine for this, but I am having trouble figuring out how to make it work. I started a simple, compilable dummy application and was hoping someone could give me some tips on how to...
When I try to set the firstBaselineOffset property on many controllers (added them using textFlow.flowComposer.addController(controller)) it only has a effect on the first container in the flow. All the other containers get the "AUTO" property and not "LINE_HEIGHT".

Hi,
I try to figure this example out, but it only assume that a TextArea is used. I only got the TextFlow to work with. I've tried to translate it to only use functions from TextFlow, but with no success.

Thanks!

I have a text area on which I would like to listen to change events when I change the text formatting using setFormatOfRange(). So far all other events I have tried, such as Event.CHANGE or TextOperationEvent.CHANGE are only dispatched when the actual text is changed.
Anyone know what I should be listening for ?

I'm needing an actionscript solution that will allow dynamic text to drop into a text box with pre-determined dimensions (x, y, width, height), and then will scale the text up or down so that it is as large as it can be within those dimensions without scrolling. Wordwrap would be automatic, and there would not be any paragraph breaks.
I...
Hi,
What is the best way to convert a tlf markup to HTML? I want only standar HTML without the old font tag. I think I saw a utility created by someone for this, but I can remember where it is. any ideas?
Tks.

I'm using Flash CS5's new Text Layout Framework (TLF) for the first time. Whenever I set the TLF text dynamically through actionscript, the resulting text renders with multiple fonts! (The same text set statically doesn't have any issues)
Example:
I can understand if, when a client machine lacks a given font, Flash would choose a ...
I created a TLF Text with the Flash IDE in the main document.
I've assigned it an instance name with the IDE
When I try to access the text with Actionscript I cannot access the text field.
Of course if I transform in the IDE the text in classic dynamic text it works as expected
I feel very stupid and I suspect it has an obvious solutio...
I want to programmatically insert formatted text at the current cursor position in a Flex 4 (Spark) RichEditableText control. I could just modify the .text property.... But that doesn't allow me to insert formatted text. So I believe I need to interact with either .textFlow or .textFlow.interactionManager somehow? However, TLF is quite c...
Has anybody use TLFX yet?
The repository is here: http://code.google.com/p/tlfx/ but I'm not sure it's completed. I tried to compile it but look like some classes are missing.
