Text Rendering Issue, Lowercase 'a' And 'o' Too Large
I'm having a very strange issue with text rendering. I have a dynamic text field that displays text from an external XML file.

The font is Arial size 12. When I set the Anti-alias bitmap (none) it displays as expected. But, when I set it to anti-alias for readability the lowercase 'a' and 'o' characters appear to be one size larger than the other characters. I have all upper and lawercase character embedded.

Just for kicks I moved the font size down to 11 and it appears normal. Also tried moving it up to 13 and appeared normal then too. So it's only a problem with Arial size 12 with anti-alias for readability.

Any clues to this strange behavior? I really need to use that font size so just changing to another size is not a solution.

Large Images / Alfa Tween / Slow Slow Slow... Help Please
I'm working on a site at the moment and one of the main eyecatchers is there is a slideshow-type of animation running in the background the whole time.

There's a dozen (large in pixels, but not in kb) .jpgs that have a minute long fade between images, a few seconds pause and then onto the next fade.

I've tried just making a normal alfa tween, I've tried making the slideshow as a seperate .swf, I've tried dynamic images with .xml, I've even tried making the .fla background transparent and making the slideshow on the html page using javascript.

But all make the site run very slowly. Text scrolling is slow, short rollover animations are slow, etc. etc.

My question is: Is there a way of making a super light alfa tween with large images?

99% of the threads regarding slideshows here at Flashkit have many views but no replies. I need help, and soon. Many many thanx to anyone that can point me in the right (or any) direction.

Text In Textfield Not Appearing; HTML Not Rendering?
Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience.....
For some reason my textfield is loading, the html inside it is rendering, but some of the text in the .txt file isn't showing, and some of the html isn't rendering? Here is the url: http://www.century21watson.com/. Just click on the middle square on the index page (it's a flash site) about 4 seconds after loading - I have to get the proper font for it to render, and proceed to the "Virtual Tours" section.
The .txt file can be downloaded at this url: http://www.century21watson.com/tours.txt Thanks so much in advance

Dynamic HTML TextField Not Rendering Text
Hi - I've looked through the forums, but can't find anything to help me out.

I'm using Flash MX with PHP to load data into a HTML textField set up as a variable. The text will not render! It's there. I can select all & copy/paste and get the text, but no color. I've tried using textFormat(), but that's not working either. I know I'm not understanding something about the dynamic html textfield. Please help.

Thanks.

[fmx 2004] Rendering Html Text & Font Embedding
Hello!

I am having trouble rendering text that has html tags.
I has to do with the font embedding options.
I am passing a string to a field text variable (same thing happens for fieldname.htmlText) and here is what happens:

let's keep it simple and say I pick Arial as my text field font.

1) If I don't embed any font outlines for that text field, the text field displays the string correctly (with the html right formatting) since my system has Arial installed.

2) If I embed the font outlines:
Uppercase
Lowercase
Numerals
Punctuation
Basic Latin
Latin I
Latin Extended A
Latin Extended B
Latin Extended Add'l
the text field skips the text that is between html tags like <b>john</b>
so for...<b>john</b>peterson... it only displays "peterson".

Am I missing any gliphs or what??? I don't get it.
Any comments welcome.

I am using an email form. The original size was 500x400 or something similar. I reduced the size to 160x100.

The problem is that the font size in a dynamic text field on the form which receives input from a php file is now HUGE. Even if i now set the font size to 8.

Do you know of a solution to this?

Does anyone know why there is such a big difference between embedded fonts in a text field and in a component. the same font in a component looks so much better and less fuzzy.
i know, pixel fonts, but is there some way you can optimize how regular fonts display?

myPage and getting into the "noticias" section.

Why everything works but not with IE?

Font Rendering Issue
Hi all,

We have an odd font issue where the end character is partially cropped. Here are the details:

Font: FF DIN (PostScript)
Text type: Static text
Anti-aliasing: Readability

This only occurs when the SWF containing this text is called into another SWF.

Any help would be great.

Cheers

Font Rendering Inconsistency
Am I hallucinating: I am using the DIN (FF) font in Adobe Illustrator to do a flash mockup for a client. I have been showing the client snapshots of type in Illustrator, which look crisp and well rendered.

However, when I use the DIN typeface in Flash as I have mocked them up in Illustrator, there are tiny differences that make the type look significantly uglier in Flash. The body copy is snapped at whole decimal points, and they have the same specifications as they do in Illustrator.

Yet some of the stems look fuzzy and pale, and it even looks just a tiny bit scragglier.

Does Flash really render type uglier than Adobe's applications? Is the only solution to use image versions of the type? (I hope not, as I like to give the user the capability to select text!)

Font Rendering From Mysql Db
Hi,

I'm working on a project where I fill textboxes in Flash with content from a mysql db. This is working pretty fine, but somehow characters like "é" and "è", "ë" etc.. aren't displayed.

I made sure the font is included (uppercase, lowercase, numerals AND punctuation) and I included the specified characters again with the "include these characters-box".

However, when I put a trace-command, they don't appear in the output-box:
Italië comes out as : "Itali�i"

It's got something to do with the mysql-collocation I'm guessing and/or the string handling by the php-script. This is what I do:


PHP Code:



$output=NULL;    while($w = mysql_fetch_object($r)) {          $output .= '<font color="#FDEACE" size="12">'. nl2br(stripslashes(ereg_replace("
",'',$w->content))). '</font><br />';    }    $output = urlencode($output); // zorg voor veilig netwerk transfer naar flash        echo '&r=1&b='.urlencode('nieuws succesvol opgehaald'). '&n=' . $output . '&'; 




anybody know where the fault lies or give me a pointer in the right direction ?

FLASH CS3 Font Rendering Method
Hello to all,

I wonder if anyone has experienced a problem in FLASH CS3 where if you choose to set the Rendering Font Style of a text as "USE DEVICE FONTS" it works temporarily fine, but after a few openings and savings of the .fla file, the USE DEVICE FONTS style is automatically changed into "ANTI-ALIAS FOR ANIMATION". This is really a real drag! :(
Can someone help me?

Thanks for your efforts.

Last Letter Not Rendering On TextField When Online
I have a very frustrating problem with my Flash application that has taken months to develop. Everything renders fine when published within the Flash environment and tested on my localhost Apache service. All fields render completely.
However, when put online the last characters are not rendering the last chararcter at all, so you get 'Married too lon' instead of 'Married too long' or 'Bedtime Storie' instead of 'Bedtime Stories' etc etc. You can see the old version with correct rendering at http://www.blipstation.com/jane/generator.html and the new old with its incomplete rendering at

Textfield Not Rendering Html In CDATA... ?
I'm using CDATA to display text in a textfield that has "render text as html" selected, but it's not rendering the html tags within the CDATA.

here's the xml code:

Code:
<pic>
<image>images/01_img.jpg</image>
<description title="Title 1" price="$$$$$">
<![CDATA[2007, acrylic on canvas,<br>20" x 40"</br>]]>
</description>
<thumbnail>thumbs/01_thb.jpg</thumbnail>
</pic>
I'm not 100% sure that my AS is correct for the path to the CDATA. I have this...

legend.txtLegend.facts.text = description[p].firstChild.nodeValue;

Could someone possibly point out why the html tags are not being rendered and also tell me if the path I have to the CDATA is correct. It works, but I wanted to make sure it was correct.

thanks for the help.

Textfield Not Rendering Html Correct - Mac
I´ve a dynamic textfield which is set to render html, and it loads/reads the text from a database. The variabel contains html-tags around certain words in the string, and on an PC it works just fine, the words get the right format, and becomes a link. But not on Mac, all of the words are not formatted or linked. Is this some kind of bug? Or is there limits for how many html-tags a variabel can contain?

The variabel look something like this:
text=jada jada jada <a href="asfunction:showTip, foo"><font color="#FF0000"><b>Click here</b></font></a> more jada jada, next link <a href="asfunction:showTip, foo2"><font color="#FF0000"><b>Click here again</b></font></a>

Preloader On Large File Slow To Show
i'm trying to preload a very large file (about 800k). the reason why it has to be so large is that it contains quite a bit of voice audio that needs to be reasonably clear(MPS, 32kbps, mono)

my problem is that the preloader scene (first scene) doesn't actually display until around 18% of the movie has loaded when using the show streaming option in preview. so, the order of events is:

- movie begins loading, with the background colour only
- the Loaded panel of the bandwidth profiler counts up to 18% (0 frames)
- frame 1 of scene 1 (preloader scene) shows and the Loaded panel hits 18% (5 frames)

is there any way to have the preloader scene show instantly, before the movie clip actually starts loading?

Large Array Causing Slow Downs
Hello,

I'm using a multi-dimensional array to store integers representing map tiles for a tile-based game.

When i make a very large map (66x44 tiles), it slows my code to a halt.

This is the code that is slowing it down:

for (var i:Number=startRows; i<endRows; i++)
{
for (var k:Number=startCols; k<endCols; k++)
{
GMANAGER.draw(_mapArray[i][k]);
_lastRendered.push (_mapArray[i][k]);
}
}

starRows, and endRows are the row numbers of the Top + Bottom side of screen (not the whole map). So its only showing the movieclips that are on the screen.

If the movieclips are not onscreen, they are hidden (visible=false), and stopped. I do this when they are first created, and the frame after they have been shown.

What is causing this to slow down? It is going through the exact same number of loops that a small map would, but still slows down.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

[F8] Loading Large Jpgs + Slow Script Warning
Hi,

I have a movie in which a user can upload an image (using FileReference) which then uploads it to a server, and then once it has been uploaded I have a movieClip on the stage dynamically load in that image. It had been working totally fine, but I have been testing it with larger images lately (2MB+) and I keep getting the 'slow script' warning errors. I can't figure out why I am getting this, as all I am doing is loading in the jpg...? (it seems to usually only throw the error right when the preloader bar shows it is almost completely loaded)

Any thought as to what could be causing this?

Thanks,

but the font's glyphs looks not enough.

when i use text String " ü ä ö ß π à â ç è é ê ë î ï ô ù û œ "

}
so what can i do in Flash CS 3?

Are Very Large Font Sizes Possible?
I am using a dynamically created TextField to display a filmstrip-style countdown, and I need a very large text size for the countdown numbers. I have tried:

textFormat.size = 900;
createTextField("numText",getNextHighestDepth(),
10,10,720,300);
numText.setNewTextFormat(textFormat);

and also:

numText.html = true;
numText.htmlText = "<font size="900"><b>BORK</b></font>";

Unfortunately, either of these methods only sets the text to about a 96 point size. I have been able to adjust the size using the _xscale and _yscale properties, but this causes problems on other (Mac) platforms, as the text is scaled much larger than on my computer.

There is the possibility of using static text and controlling it with AS, but that seems afwully inefficient for what seems like an easy problem.

Any ideas?

SLOW SLOW External Text File
Hi,
I have created a .fla that consists of 3 scenes, each of which contains the same scrolling text box that loads the same external text file. The .fla is fairly CPU intensive already, and maybe the addition of the text pushed it over the edge, but when it plays, the text takes a long time to load when switching scenes (the text box appears, but it takes up to 30 seconds to load the text depending on the computer I use), and the scrolling is hit-and-miss.

My questions are:
1) Would it be faster if I hard-coded the text right into the textbox?

2) Should I get rid of the other 2 scenes and put everything into 1 scene?

3) Any suggestions?

Thanks,
sreebar

Text Rendering Bugs W/dynamic/css Text - Overlaps, Spacing, Etc.
Hi There:

This is a problem I've been having for years but which came up again today. I've got a fairly complex quiz engine which builds question and answer screens from xml & stylesheets using embedded fonts. I've wrangled most of the basic issues with formatting - bold & italics, special characters, etc.

Unfortunately, I still have regular problems with Flash's rendering of the text - usually when using an inline style with italics. At small font sizes italic text will overlap the text that precedes it - and I know that it's a rendering bug, because if I zoom in to 200 or 400%, the letter spacing is correct. I end up adding non-breaking spaces to the file, which is bad form, but it works.

Today I have a problem with underline tags adding too much space between words - even when there are no spaces. Again, it displays correctly when zoomed in. Unfortunately, I can't fix this one by adding NBSPs. I've tried playing with the letterspacing with no success.

Does anybody have any insights or advice? I'm attaching an image that shows examples of what I'm talking about. I've experienced this problem for YEARS with dozens of different fonts, and I've tried every variation of kerning/letterspacing/font embedding etc. that I can think of.

Thanks in advance!
Patrick

Text Rendering?
Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and to flash as well. I started out creating a website in flash (8) and there's a thing I cannot get around: I have some static text and some dynamic text, both rendered with anti-aliasing. The dynamic text is loaded from a html formatted file. The curious thing is that the 2 text render in a totally different way: the static text looks great, the dynamic doesn't: it's smaller, even if the font and fontsize are the same, and doesn't look likes it has the anti-alias. I'm sure I'm probably missing something somewhere. Anyone can help please?

[MX Pro] TextField Font
Hi Buddies,

I have a dynamic textfield created on run time and it is enabled for HTML text. The text value for the above textfield will have html font tags with attributes fonct face ans size. For examble :

<font face = 'arial' size ='12'>Follow the directions given below to answer the questions that follow.<br><br>Your answer for each question below would be:<br><br>A, if ALL THREE items given in the question are exactly ALIKE.<br>B, if only the FIRST and SECOND items are exactly ALIKE.<br>C, if only the FIRST and THIRD items are exactly ALIKE.<br>D, if None of the above.<br></font>

All is working fine. But if the face value of the font tag left as blank like <font face='' size=''> flash displays the texts in TimesNew Roman font. But it needs to be displayed in some other fonts. Is there any other way to over ride it.

Please reply me... Its something urgent. Thanx in advance

Problems Rendering Text Through Swf's
Am putting together a folio in site created in mx 2004 pro but published in mx using action script 1.

The way the folio site works is that you have a holder movie that divides into 3 sections, about, work and contact, each one of these sections is a seperate swf which is loaded by the 'loadMovie(relevant.swf,1);'

The work swf loads via buttons 20 seperate images that are split into seperate swf's using exactly the same method as above.

The explanation text is loaded into relevant dynamic text fields using 'loadVarialesNum(folioimages/work.text, 0);'.

The problem I have is that all works fine in the actual Work Movie, ie when you render the work.swf all images and text load exactly as they should.

However, when I then load the work.swf into the top root folio.swf via the loadMovie command, the work movie pulls in all the relevant imaage swf's but does not render the text in the dynamic text fields.

Any ideas

Hear me out, because I know this is going to sound like my movie clip isn't aligned to an integer value of coordinates -- that's NOT what this problem is.

Red Text Bug

Every time you click the mouse, the SWF should switch between showing a clip with some text, and showing a BitmapData.draw() copy of that clip. On a PC it looks fine, but notice how on a mac, the text 'jumps' slightly, whenever there is a black background behind it. Also notice that it is worse for red text than blue text, and it doesn't affect the green text at all.. You can verify that these text fields aren't just misaligned by noting how only the top half of the rightmost text boxes change (the half that is over a black background). Is Adobe aware of this bug? Are there workarounds?

Flash 8 Text Rendering
Hi,

I'm trying to accomplish some nice text layout capabilities in my application and would like to take a text size in points and display a resized preview of that layout in a flash application. The idea is to have it act like Word in that the text wrapping does not change as the size of the preview changes. I'm not using zooming to accomplish this, but actually redrawing the preview when the stage is resized.

My problem is that the text wrapping is inconsistent. I have done some work to ensure that the displayed text font size (using embedded fonts) is always an integer size. However, this means that my fonts have to have a common denominator that is relatively large to be able to preview at many different sizes. Does flashtype successfully render subpixel sizes? What do I need to do to ensure that my wrapping is consistent?
