Dynamic Random Display Text?
I was wondering if you could give this nub on how to read text from a file and display a random line. Id like to add a little random quote thing to some of my flash content but id also like it to read the text from a file.
So say your file is blah.txt, inside containing
Code:
Random Message Line 1
Random Message Line 2
Random Message Line 3
Random Message Line 4
Random Message Line 5
How could i go abouts doing that? the file would be in the same directory as the .swf file. Thanks for any pointers!

Display A Random Number In A Dynamic Text Field
Hi, I've only ever used very basic Actionscript 1 & have recently made the switch to AS3.
I'm trying to create a dynamic text field that will display a randomly generated number between 1 & 9.
I've created a dynamic text field on the stage and called it 'random_txt' in the properties inspector.
Here's the code I have on frame 1 so far:
code: var myResult:int = Math.floor(Math.random()*8+1);
So my understanding of the above is that the variable 'myResult' now holds the randomly generated number?
I'm trying to display it in the text field by typing:
code: random_txt.text = myResult;
This seems to make sense in my head, but it doesn't work. Is anyone able to tell me where I am going wrong? Sorry if this is really basic, but I'm not from a coding background so the maths/tech side of things really throws me.
Thanks in advance.
Display Random Text On Stage, Floating Across Randomly
Hi
Can anyone help with a script for doing the following.
I would like to have a box where random sentances from a text file would move across at different trajectories, speeds, colors and sizes. Having more than one in view at any one time.
The application is for a musical group, we want to put our song list into a text file, then use the script to display the contents in random order. We have over 400 songs so doing this in a list would be boring.
I only have basic knowledge of Flash (using Flash MX). Im a PHP programmer.
Any ideas
Thanks Terry
Write On Text Effect - Display Different News
Hi,
Does anyone know how to modify this tutorial (Write on text effect) in order to:
- have some text appearing
- wait a few seconds
- have it disappearing
- new text coming... and so on
As the last one has been displayed, it starts all over again.
Thank you very much for your help,

Random Text Effect
hey,
download the file please.
i have 2 questions...
1. how can i make the effect happen by itself (meaning i wouldn't have to mouse over the button for the effect to happen, it would just start playing by it self.)
2. if i insert long text in there, it gets cut off. How can i avoid this?
Thanks.
Random Text Appear Effect
Hi, I was wondering how I would go about to make a button or mc where when you put the mouse over it, the it displays the text next to it, but each letter in the word appears randomly in sequence. So if I have a button for 'about' when mouse is over, it appears like _ _ o _ _>_ _ o u _>a _ o u _>a b o u _>a b o u t (without the underscore of course), but instead it's random every time. Any ideas? Thanks!

Random Effect On External Text
I am making a website for some rapper's (this the html site i am re-designing www.thefrontline.com). I need some random text effect to make the site more gangster.
I have some good code, but i need to work for some text that loads externally.

Text Field Doesn't Display Text When Its In A Page Loaded W/ AttachMovie
I'm having a problem where I made a 'main' page that loads sub-pages via attachMovie and in those subpages I have text fields that are populated via a LoadVars object. The subpage works perfectly when I run it by itself -- but when I load it into the main page w/ attachMovie, the text field doesn't show up. Ideas? ?
Advanced Text Display / Clipping / Measuring Text Length
Thought i'd post a quick question to see if anyone has ran into this before. It'd save me a bit of time if someone would be kind enough to help.
The final effect i'm working on is editable text, including typing directly on the text to edit it, draggable resize from the corners, changing fonts, changing colors, and masking the visible text so it's clipped at the end of the last char typed.
changing colors: easy
draggable resize: easy
changing fonts: easy if i can figure out the clipping and text measuring
clipping (or masking, whatever you want to call it): i could use some help on this one, i know it can be done but i haven't been able to run across any good examples. a link or an explination would be appreciated.
text measuring: this is something i've given up on for flash. i still need to do it but my current solution is to rip all the char metrics from the font through a real language into raw data that i can use for a lookup for flash. if anyone knows how to do this completely in flash it would save me a ton of time not having to re-rip metrics for every new font add in the future.
thanks!
Dynamic HTML Text Fields Do Not Display Formatted Text?
Flashkit.com,
In Flash MX I am developing a lot of movies using dynamically populated html text fields. When the user does not have a font I used on their machine swapping happens on all dynamic and input fields. Only static fields display the corrent font. I make sure the text field properties are embedding the fonts. Still all of the dynamic html text fields do not display the formatted text. I have .fla samples I can email to anyone.
I have tried these macromedia solutions with NO success:

Dynamically Loaded Text File Doesn't Display In Text Box?
Hello People,
This is the scenario, hope you can help
I have a main mc, that loads into it an mc with a dynamically loaded external text file(" text mc")inside a text box(normal stuff). When the main mc load the text mc the external text file doesn't appear in the text box? When I execute the text mc by itself, it works sweet, text displays. I just need some help of getting the text to appear when it's loaded inside the main mc?
I've attached the text mc file so you can find the problem(note it will work fine, it's just when it's loaded inside the main mc the text doesn't display?)
thanks people
Scrolling Large Text, Text Doesn't Display Completely...

Is It Possible To Display The Text (from External XML File) In A Text Field?
I'm a beginner with Flash ActionScript coding. I've got to make a flash menu that takes the text and URL for the menu items from an external file and displays it on a PHP page.
I've found the code to load text from an external file on the Adobe site:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/00000890.html
However, this code doesn't work. It gives a message "Undefined" in a box, though all the paths are correct.
However, I can't use this code since I need to anti-alias the text display.Is it possible to display the text (from external XML file) in a text field? I can then apply anti-alias and select the text characteristics. I'll embed all the possible font characters in the movie.
How do I make this Dynamic Text for text fields work?
I'm using Macromedia Flash Professional 8 for creating this menu.
Load External Text Into Variable? (not For Display In Text Box)
Hello,
I've having a hard time getting this to work, and I hope someone can help. I'm trying to load a value from an external text file into a variable named Q1A. Here's my text file:
&A1=correct
Basically, I'm placing quiz questions, four possible answers and whether the answers are correct/incorrect all in a text file. I'd like to make a 'submit' button that checks whether the answer is correct/incorrect (based on what's been defined in the text file). This lets me use the TXT to update all questions/answers, and it also lets me vary which statement (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th) will be the correct answer.
I can load external text into text fields just fine, but how do I use loadvars to define the value of a variable that I'd like to test? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Dynamic Text File Doesn't Display All Of The Text HELP
Hi everyone, I have a flash site that I created for a church, and on the homepage my client wanted to have a section called Announcements, where she could easily update the text from that section. To accomplish this, I went to the Kirupa tutorials for dynamic text files in Flash.
I used the XML (or was it PHP) code, pasted it in my Flash movie, opened up Notepad to create my text file, and began inserting paragraphs of text in the Notepad. I attached a scrollbar to the dynamic text file since I wanted to see all of the paragraphs. Scrolled down to the bottom, and then quite surprisingly the rest of the paragraphs were cut off!
The website I'm working on is www.jonesumc.org, and the Announcements section and scrollbar are on the bottom left side of the homepage. The paragraph cut off was originally supposed to say:
FINANCIAL LITERACY BOOT CAMP The Financial Literacy Boot Camp for ages 5 - 18 will be held July 10th - 14th here at Jones. Applications are available today! Three levels offered, Elementary, Jr. High & High School. Our mission to “Expose & Empower” our children & youth to positive financial tools. Volunteers are needed for the week. See Hilary Byrde for more details.
Instead, the scrollbar and textbox cuts the paragraph to the word "Jr. High"
Does anyone know what the problem is?
This is the code inside Flash that allows the text file to communicate with the dynamic text box:
Code:
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("announcement1.txt");
loadText.onLoad = function() {
announce1.text = this.announce1;
};
The dynamic text box has an instance name of announce1, and the Var is labeled: announce1
The dynamic text box doesn't have any actionscript applied to it. The line type of this box is also Multiline, and the text wraps inside the box.
Inside Notepad, at the very beginning I was told to type "announce1="
Immediately after the equal sign, I could write any kind of text I wanted to. Instead of hitting the ENTER key I pressed the SPACEBAR key several times until I created a new line of text.
As for the code, that's it! There wasn't really anything complicated with the code and putting things together. In order to fully understand my problem I recommend taking a look at kirupa's tutorial for dynamic text. Thanks for your help!
Dynamic Text Default?
(Flash MX)
I have a dynamic text movie clip symbol that changes when the user clicks on links to different pages. Clicking on the link enters the text that should come up for that page title (in a little animation), and everything is working perfectly, I just need a way to default the text so that when the movie starts, the title for the first page is already displayed.
Is there a way to tell the dynamic text box to display certain text when the whole movie first loads?
Text Field Default Value
I'm sure I'll look stupid by asking this question.
I have a form with Input text boxes. I want something already written in it, like a default value.
ex. Your name
And when the user click in it to enter his name the value "your name" disapear to let the place for the information.
I saw this for html forms, I would like to do the same in flash.
Thanks!
Format Text Default
Hello,
After I create a textfield I try to format it, so that the size of the font is 18px when the user starts to type, but I only get default format.
HTML Code:
var myText:TextField = new TextField();
myText.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
myText.border=true;
myText.multiline=true;
myText.x=30;
myText.y=30;
myText.width=100;
myText.height=50;
var qFormat:TextFormat=new TextFormat();
qFormat.size=18;
myText.setTextFormat(qFormat);
addChild(myText);
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,myButtonF);
If I however write text in the textfield and click following button then the text gets formatted.
HTML Code:
function myButtonF(event:MouseEvent) {
var qFormat:TextFormat=new TextFormat();
qFormat.size=18;
myText.setTextFormat(qFormat);
}
I would appreciate it if someone could tell me how I can set the format of the text before the user starts to type.
Thanks

Text Doesn't Display In Dynamic Text Box

Can't Display Text In Dynamic Text Field
I can't for the life of me figure this one out.
The Problem:
I am loading data from an xml file, and displaying the the variables in several dymanic text fields, but I can't get anything other than a number to show up.
Here's the Situation:
Using flash professional fx 2004.
I have a Dynamic Text field with a name of name_txt assigned to it.
after I've loaded the xml file, I assign the variables. I'm using trace to ensure that the proper values are assigned, and they are. I resorted to testing by hard coding the text value of name_txt, and I found that text does not show up, numbers do... go figure.
so...
name_txt.text = "test"; does not work
name_txt.text = 3; does work
some values of my dynamic text...
not showing background, not htmlText, single line, aliasing, nothing embeded.
Anybody have any idea how to make text show up??
thanks in advance.
Text Display Problems With Dynamic Text
In a movie I'm working on, I recently changed a text field from static to dynamic (since we now want the text to change when rolling over something else). When it was static, the text was font Arial and it displayed fine. But now, the dynamic text shows up as a different font (what looks like a "default"), even though the font and size are set exactly the same (literally all I did was change the text type in the properties window). Any ideas as to what's causing this, and how to fix it? Thanks.

Default Value For Input Text Boxes
Hello everyone,
I am trying to figure out how to get an input text box in Flash 8 Professional to show a default value, like you would a real form in HTML. I'm passing the values via the Flash URL in the Object tag like so:
component.swf?value1=1&value2=2 etc.
I'm using Cold Fusion as the scripting platform.
Can anyone tell me what to do to get the input text boxes in Flash to reflect the values in the URL?
Many thanks.

Dynamic Default Value For Input Text Box
i have created a form in which a user will input text that will be sent to php and then be put in a txt file on the server. my problem is when the user returns to the input box it shows it being blank. I want the text that they input the last time they were there to be in the box when they arrive so they can add to it.
in essence i need the input box to first act as a dynamic text box that loads external data from the txt file, then be able to be edited as an input text box
i hope i made this clear...my thoughts are a little chaotic lol
thanks for the help
Only Default Fonts For Scrolling Text Field?
We did a scrolling text field in flash 5 and we used an external text file which we loaded in. The font we used in simple text to write our text did not import to flash it uses a default font. Is there any way to change the font color and size when loading from an external file?
If we write the text directly in flash in the actions can we write some script to make it change fonts and colors??
please help!!
thnx

Hi there,
I am a beginner of ActionScript. I bought a book which provides me with the effect that I wanted to use. After changing all the details in actions panel (as per instruction from my book), I could not see anything that can allow me to change the typeface in my action panel. Is that typeface consider default that I could not change? Could anybody tells me how to change it?
Thanks in advanced
