 Will your design allow you to just create a movieclip with a solid fill

Here's my quick list of unicode characters for htmlText...

string  symbol
--  ---
\u2122  trademark (TM) symbol
\u00A9  copyright (C) symbol
\u2018  single opening (left) quote
\u2019  single closing (right) quote 
\u201C  double opening (left) quote
\u201D  double closing (right) quote
\u00AE  registered trademark (R) symbol
\u2013  en dash
\u2014  em dash
\u2022  bullet

Whatever character you need, just make certain it is a glyph in the font you
are using and that you specify the unicode hex value of the character using
the format \u.

Will your design allow you to just create a movieclip with a solid fill
instead of a line? You could give it some small constant dimension in Y to
suit your idea of line thickness, and then you have full control over its
length in X.

RE: [Flashcoders] long dash

2007-08-23 Thread Andres Ardila
Hi Natalia

First check that the font that you are using for the textfield actually
have the mdash character, use the character map in windows  (the mdash
is html entity #8212; or symbol - or Unicode \u2014 )

If the character is there, then use

c=a #8212; b;
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

or

c=a - b;
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

or

c=a \u2014 b;
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

hope it helps, let me know if not

thanks
Andres

  If you want to use any other special characters, use the code
  appropriate to your encoding style. In ASCII, for example, it's
  symbol
  151, which you can enter in Windows with alt-0151. In Unicode, I
  think
  it's \u8212, but don't quote me.

   Will your design allow you to just create a movieclip with a solid

   instead of a line? You could give it some small constant dimension
   in Y to
   suit your idea of line thickness, and then you have full control
   over its
   length in X.

Hi Natalia

First check that the font that you are using for the textfield actually
have the mdash character, use the character map in windows  (the mdash
is html entity #8212; or symbol - or Unicode \u2014 )

If the character is there, then use

c=a #8212; b;
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

or

c=a - b;
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

or

c=a \u2014 b;
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

hope it helps, let me know if not

thanks
Andres

  Here's my quick list of unicode characters for htmlText...

  string symbol
  --  ---
  \u2122 trademark (TM) symbol
  \u00A9 copyright (C) symbol
  \u2018 single opening (left) quote
  \u2019 single closing (right) quote 
  \u201C double opening (left) quote
  \u201D double closing (right) quote
  \u00AE registered trademark (R) symbol
  \u2013 en dash
  \u2014 em dash
  \u2022 bullet

  Whatever character you need, just make certain it is a glyph in the font you
  are using and that you specify the unicode hex value of the character using
  the format \u.

Those tags are not properly supported in Flash text fields. (At least they
weren't as of Flash 8, haven't put CS3 through its paces yet.)
