Dynamic Text And Superscript
HI all,
I'm trying to get superscript for numbers to work using the unicodes of the font.
Anyone know of a hack to achieve this ?
I managed to get it to work with unicodes and if i create a dynamic textfield and within flash specify the characters i want to embed and then did this:
myText.html= "testing /u2074";
off the top of my head /u2074 will display 2 in superscript.
The font i'm using is palatino which has all the superscript codes for numbers 1-9.
The problem is i need to read the text from an external xml file. I've put the text i want in cdata so /u2074 will be read.
I'm reading the node with the cdata into myText.html and what it displays is:
testing /u2074 instead of testing 2.(that 2 should be superscript)
Anyone have any ideas or managed to achieve this ?

Superscript Fonts In Dynamic Text Fields?
Does anyone know of a way to create superscipt number, or to hack it in dynamic text fields? I'm using XML along w/ a number of CSS styles and I can't find a way to achieve this.
One option would be a nice small pixel font thats designed to looked like superscript numerals - so if anyone knows of something like this, let me know, thanks!

Superscript Font For Dynamic Html Text Field
Hello Forum
I am loading in a bunch of text and format them in flash into a newspaper-like layout.
The problem I am running into and can't seem to solve are superscript characters. I've used the GG superscript fonts from this website: http://blog.ggshow.com/index.php/reference?cat=121
Tthe example works fine. But once I try to implement it into my application it fails to work or simply doesn't show up.
Here's my code:
--------------------------------------------
External XML file:
--------------------------------------------
[...]
<item type="text"><![CDATA[.This is a sample text <i>Italic Font here shows up right</i><font face="GG Superscript">superscript here doesn't work</font>, ]]>
</item>
</p>
[...]
--------------------------------------------
Reading the Texfield:
--------------------------------------------
[...]
public static function getNodeContent(_xml:XML):String{
return String(_xml.firstChild.nodeValue);
}
[...]
--------------------------------------------------
creating the textfield:
--------------------------------------------------
txtHolder = itemMC.createEmptyMovieClip("txt",1);
Textfield.create(txtHolder,XmlArticleData.getNodeContent(itemNode),"articleText")
--------------------------------------------------
The Textfield class:
-------------------------------------------------
public static function create(_movieClip:MovieClip,_str:String,_type:String){
switch (_type) {
case "articleText":
_movieClip.createTextField("txtMC", 1, 0,0, 1, 1);
_movieClip.txtMC.autoSize = "left";
_movieClip.txtMC.type = "dynamic";
_movieClip.txtMC.border = false;
_movieClip.txtMC.multiline = true;
_movieClip.txtMC.html = true;
_movieClip.txtMC.embedFonts = true;
_movieClip.txtMC.selectable = false;
_movieClip.txtMC.wordWrap = true;
_movieClip.txtMC.antiAliasType = "advanced";
_movieClip.txtMC.thickness = 1.2;
_movieClip.txtMC.sharpness = 0;
var fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
fmt.font = "ArticleTextFont";
fmt.indent = 10;
fmt.bold = false;
fmt.italic = false;
fmt.size = 11.5;
fmt.leading = 10;
fmt.color = 0x000000;
fmt.align = "justify";
}
_movieClip.txtMC.htmlText = _str;
_movieClip.txtMC.setTextFormat(fmt);
-----------------------------------------------------------
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Cheers

Hi all.
I am creating a slideshow in Flash, following the tutorial here: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_slideshow.htm. My movie inports an xml file which has a list of photos (fine), each with an annotation.
In one of the annotations, I have a French MC: the French version of TM so it needs to be superscript. I haven't been able to figure out how to make the MC superscript.
Thoughts?
Thanks

The Sub/superscript Revisited
ok, adobe sez: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowled...fm?id=1959eceb
but if you code:
Code:
my_tf.htmltext="COu2080"
you'll get the correct CO2 symbol
also for example e=mcu2070 works.
now this only works when the font is not embedded...
when you embed fonts, the sub or superscript symbols vanish...
even when you code:
Code:
my_tf.htmltext="CO<font face='Arial'>u2080</font>"
does anyone have an idea for a workaround ?

Jumping To Areas Of Dynamic Text, Printing Dynamic Text
hello,
I have a movie clip that loads a .txt file into a dynamic text field. Due to the amount of content in the file a scroller bar is needed in order to view all of it. I want to create buttons that jump to different areas of the dynamic text for easier navigation so the user can go directly to various sections instead of having to use the scroller all the time. What kind of coding would I need to put on the buttons and within the .txt file at the areas I want to jump to?
Also, I would like to give the user the option to print everything within the dynamic text field only, not the surrounding elements in my movie clip. Is that possible?
thanks!

[AS2] Changing Text In Dynamic Text Field With Dynamic Instance Name
I dont know what I am missing here but what I want to do is change the text inside a dynamic text field via actionscript. the code I am using runs in a loop within a function. Trace is outputting the correct values.
PHP Code:
for(i=0; i<=4; i++) {
if(_root["order_"+ q][i] == 0) {
["order_"+ i]text = "First";
trace("first");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 1) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Second";
trace("Second");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 2) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Third";
trace("Third");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 3) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Fourth";
trace("Fourth");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 4) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Fifth";
trace("Fifth");
}
}
basically I want to do this -
PHP Code:
order_0.text = "First";
So how can I change this line to work as expected?
PHP Code:
["order_"+ i]text = "First";
EDIT- The instance names for the dynamic text fields are set
Thanks

Asfunction - How To Load Dynamic Text With Dynamic Text? [F8]
Hello dear helpers !!!
I'm trying to get external, dynamically loaded text to load different text files into a text box. I've figured out that I need asfunction to do it through calling a function in the movie and passing it variables, although i haven't been able to write this function at all... would anyone mind giving me a hand???
thanks sooo much!!
p.s. I've managed to get this working by creating a toggle function, so at the moment I have 25 text boxes and a show/ hide function, but that's very buggy.
Loaded Text File Wont Show All Of The Text In Dynamic Text Field
When I load an external text file into flash and display the string in a dynamic text box, not all of the text will show in the text box; and using scroll button to scroll the text doesnt help.
The text that is in the text file is as follows, and as far as I can see there is no reason why all this text shouldnt show in the dynamic text field; by the way all my targets are correct, I know that for fact.

Trasfering Text From One Dynamic Text Box To A Input Text Box On A Differnt Page?
Ok so I have a text box set up which receives the date on a callendar which you click on. On another page (a seperate html file) I have an input text box for receiveing this text.
I've been trying to do this using various methods using getURL, but, I can't get it to work. This is becoming tedious especially as I'm not able to test it without having to reupload the files.
If someone could please inform me on how I should do this I'd be vary greatful.
If you need any further information I'll reply as soon as possible.
