I really thought this was very well done as the entire site is flash and it isn't about being flash but more about useability which I haven't seen alot of.

I can't wait to play this game. I always check the korean site and the beta has gone live for koreans. They also re-did the flash and it is awesome.

Great site, don't worry about people complaining. They always seem to do that, unless you are so uber cool it would make you gag like a valley girl.

Keep the cool sites coming.

For anyone else who is creating a dashed line box, bounding box or marquee selection, will find this useful. My girlfriend who knows flash suggested flipping a line box a couple of times and in 6...

I want to create a selection marquee around a box that I click on. I was wondering if anyone knows of any tutorials on how create something like this.

Thanks,

I bet most of you are using the .text = your text.

If you want to load HTML into a textfield you need to use: htmltext

mytextbox.htmltext = "this text<br>and more text";

Chris

so changing the button to an mc is actually the solution, sorry for the stupid question.

I have a textbox within a button within a MC. If I change the button to a MC the textbox updates but otherwise it doesn't. What am I doing wrong? Here is the path I use:

zoomer.button1.text1.text...

Maybe you need stop(); in the first frame of the movie that preloader is loading.


I also had pathing problems with Flash and so I put the html page in the same directory as the preloader and the...

Well I made the dash box in actionscript now I just need to figure out how to animate it. Here is my code so far:

this.createEmptyMovieClip("someshapes", 1);
this.someshapes.lineStyle(1,...

I want to create a moving dash line box around a textbox when it is selected. I could create the thing in Photoshop and make an animation. But I have 6 textboxes and I thought what if the client...

If it isn't in a movieclip you can place the action script in the first keyframe of any layer. With your textbox name it would be:

fieldTextFormat = new TextFormat();
fieldTextFormat.align =...

fieldTextFormat = new TextFormat();
fieldTextFormat.align = "right";
editor_txt.setNewTextFormat(fieldTextFormat);

if the textfield is in a moiveclip then put it at the bottom of the movieclip....

One of our users who is taking a course in a flash piece is having problems with paging down. Here is what she writes:

There are a number of tutorials on this site that you can learn alot from. One of my favorite books is the Flash MX Designer's ActionScript Reference.

If you are just starting with flash I would...

Create a movieclip and put a textfield in that MC. Then in the MC define what font you want:

editor_txt.font = "Arial Black";


Then you can just duplicate that movieclip like:


...

Create a movieclip that is the window. Define visablity is false. Then use the onClick or onEvent to detect that the user clicked something. Then define visablity true for the window and it will...

Well it seems that you can't define the setting inside textfield within a movieclip when it loads, you have to define it within the movieclip itself. I moved my code inside of the movieclip and then...

Maybe these guys can give you some advice:

If the font size is the same in the properties of the textfields, then you maybe defining the text size somewhere else.

I would suggest deleting the one that has the text you don't want and just...
