Ah I see - thanks Glen.
For this particular project, there would be very little benefit in cheating
as there is no prize. However it certainly sounds like something I will use
on my other game projects.
Thanks for your time writing out the explanation.

Hi cool list,
Got myself a little optimazation challenge.
I'm getting HTML text from an XML file. The big text needs to be split
into different pages, depending on the size of the text.
What's the best way to approach this?
I'm no counting words, en add words to a dynamic TextField (with
You can use the scrollV and maxScrollV properties to determine if you have
text outside of the field.
if(myTextField.scrollV != myTextField.maxScrollV){
//scrollbars or pagination needed
}

Hi,
Maybe look at the Text Metrics somehow for this and determine if
the height of a string formatted to your text field settings will be
taller than you need.
- you might want to be careful counting words, because things like
newline, etc have a bearing on your text height...
Guessing you can't target FP 10..
I built a column text component with pagination once upon a time, and the
easiest way I found to do it was to create the full text off-screen in one
text field that has your required width, then grab one line at a time from
the off-screen text field and add it to
My first attempt was doing it with the scrollrect property. (wich ended
up unfortunatly in seeing pixel-lines (of lines of text) sometime when
using it to show different pages)
The problem isn't figuring out 'if' I need new pages (or how much), but
it is where the last word/character/whatever
I've done several games with relatively open high score systems. There was
no prize for winning, and people cheated within the first 2 hours of launch.
Don't assume they wont! Especially if the score chart posts usernames.

Indeed there is not scroll tab in the scroll bar.
One thing I did notice, not I think it is your issue, but in your HTML you
have the player version set to 6.0.65.0. If you are indeed using AS3, then
that player version will not play the SWF. You will need to change that
value to at least 9.0
Thanks jonathan - that is very useful to know. I am now going to incorporate
some security anyway as the client wants it to be hacker-proof :)

Does this problem appear if you run it locally in a browser? How about
making a projector and seeing if the problem exists there as well.
Only thing that I can really guess at is that something within the IDE is
helping it work.

It seems that something is wrong with this particular component, I
did a new file and attempt to do the same, it is having the same
problem.
I'll try to do something else with the text, there is other way to

use the

nope the component is not on the first frame, how could I put in
there without placing it physically?
I've never try that before...do you know how, I know that is pretty
simple and so beginner but I've never try it before.

P.d: when you said something within the IDE that is
You could place a copy off-stage that gets loaded on the first frame
and disapears on the second frame. Or check export for actionscript
and take the export first frame checkmark off in the library. You
can do this as long as there is one physically placed on stage
somewhere down the line
FWIW
The scroll works via mouse wheel on FF3
