flash cs4
when i run movie i can not see text in my dynamic text box though i am able to select it and if "ctrl + A" it and paste it in my actions panel i can see it contains the text i intend.....
also if i just comment the line from my code --
preloader_txt.text = int(pcent)+" || 1mb";
then
the dynamic text box is showing the default text i put there which means there is no formatting problem.....
You can't use this line.Quote:
preloader_txt = int(pcent)+" || 1mb";
To assign some text to a TextField you must use it's text variable like this:
Actionscript Code:preloader_txt.text = int(pcent)+" || 1mb";
I'm not sure it's gonna solve the problem, but if you upload your .fla file here, it'd be easier to find out what's the problem
The problem may also be with the font itself. For example I always have this sort of problems when I use Russian (cyrillic) fonts
btw, I think a good programming practice is to make sure you use the correct data types. When I assign some text to a text field I enforce it to be String. Like:
It's just an adviceActionscript Code:preloader_txt.text = String(int(pcent)+" || 1mb");
i found out one thing if i highlight the default text in my dynamic text box by selecting which shows for about 1 sec then the anim works fine and preloader text is constantly updated as it should....
wierd!!!
i changed the font as u said...
i was previously using "segoe print" with style "bold"
i made font "times new roman" and it started working....
i then experimented to check what was going wrong...
and the style parameter "bold" was what was causing problem..
i used "segoe print" with style "regular" and its working fine...
"flash works in its own ways"
It could be that u are using font embedding and the font is not present on your PC or font is not embedded.
