  also, have you put text in p_1 already? Because the order that Flash wants
 is you setTextFormat on the text field, and then you put the text in it.

Really? I thought it was the other way around - put text in, then set
the format, *unless* you are using TextField.setNewTextFormat...

Hi,

It is the other way around. setTextFormat is for formatting text currently in 
the textfield (optionally text in the textfield within a certain range), and 
setNewTextFormat is for text prepended to the current contents of the textfield 
(either prepended by script or by the user in case of input fields).

Regards,
Morten

Oh, right. I never use setTextFormat, I always create the text box, format 
it and put the text in.


public static function 
makeTextField(x:Float,y:Float,w:Float,h:Float,f:String, 
s:Float,rgb,t:String){



var newDepth=flash.Lib.current.getNextHighestDepth();

var tf2 =flash.Lib.current.createTextField(tf2,newDepth,x,y,w,h);

tf2.selectable=false;

tf2.wordWrap=true; tf2.embedFonts=true;

tf2.setNewTextFormat(new TextFormat(f,s,rgb));

tf2.text=t;

}


The above is written in haXe, so it mgiht not make sense.

Sorry about the misinformation, Theodore.

[Flashcoders] code review

2008-04-15 Thread Lehr, Theodore M (N-SGIS)
What is wrong with this code:

for (i=1; i6; i++) {
 _root.main_content[p_+i].setTextFormat(portNavOff);
}

P_1, p_2,  are dynamic text fields.   Should this be working or
can I not target a text field like this?

Your code is correct and yes you can access text fields like that. I would
double check that main_content is named correctly as well as the text
fields.

Hi Theodore

Have you tried it without the loop?

i=1;
_root.main_content[p_+i].setTextFormat(portNavOff);

_root.main_content[p_+i].text=hello world!;

also, have you put text in p_1 already? Because the order that Flash wants 
is you setTextFormat on the text field, and then you put the text in it.

2008-04-15 Thread Pete Hotchkiss
apart from the _root reference whichis never a good idea

check you lower-case / upper-case naming on your textfield

Flash will treat P_1 and p_1 as different fields.

in your loop your only mapping references to p_1, p_2, p_3 ... etc etc

and fields named P_1, P_2, P_3 ... etc will never be referenced

Ah, yes, of course. Sorry about that. I'll comment it right away.


2. Are you using the MVC pattern? It's not really clear from the

nope, I don't use pattern. I just want to make the HistoryList and
HistoryItem 'talk' to each other. I don't know anything about pattern
(I've just started reading Headfirst DP book).


3. What's hl.as? It's an ill chosen file/class name.


Oops, my bad ... It shouldn't be there! It's the external .as that I

I hope it's okay for a noob like me to ask for a code review here. If
not, sorry for the noise.

This is the simple app I created a few days ago, about which I'd like to

a much better way.
