I'm trying to handle a dynamic 'fill in the blanks' type of interaction -
where the client does not have advanced knowledge of the question content
('blank' keywords will be delimited in some way).I've experimented with solution that, to this point, is working beautifully. I colour the word-of-interest different than the rest of the content, capture as a bitmap object, then determine the rect of the colored area. I cycle through each key word and voila! I know exactly where to place my drag-to boxes... r o b | Robert Gordon | The Article 19 Group Inc. | phone: 514.938.8512 | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.article19.com > From: Michael Bedar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: Flashcoders mailing list <[email protected]> > Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2006 17:55:03 -0400 > To: Flashcoders mailing list <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] x,y coordinates of a character > > what's the end goal in terms of functionality? > > > On Aug 2, 2006, at 10:12 AM, Robert Gordon wrote: > >> Hey List! >> >> I'm trying to find a way to determine the stage coordinates of a >> character >> within a dynamically constructed text field (multiline, wrapping, html >> formated).
