Hi there, I'm using custom fonts, which I'm dynamically embedding, but I can't seem to force it to fall back to monospace on machines where the browser has been config'd to not allow font downloads? Anyone have any ideas for how to make this work? Am I just doing something stupid with my CSS? Thanks in advance, Eric. Current font.js include script: var styleNode = document.createElement ("style");
styleNode.type = "text/css";
styleNode.textContent = "";
styleNode.textContent = styleNode.textContent + "@font-face { font-family: 'Transponder AOE', monospace; src: url('./fonts/TRANA___.ttf'); }\n";
styleNode.textContent = styleNode.textContent + "@font-face { font-family: 'Transponder Grid AOE', monospace; src: url('./fonts/TRANGA__.ttf'); }\n";
//console.log(styleNode.textContent);
document.head.appendChild (styleNode);

Thanks for the reply, Clay. I posted and promptly got laid out flat with the flu. I guess I'll dig around and see what I can locate!

So… just to kick a horse that's still twitching here where I work and not completely dead… How exactly would you go about using listeners to trigger animated events in Flash, since we can't rely on the timeline? Are there any good links to get me up to speed on this? I wouldn't bug you guys, but it took me two days to run across the stupid createjs code that reliably listens for whether or not an iPad or browser is stopping audio autoplay, and I'm hoping to cut that down a little bit this time. Thanks in advance, Eric.

When I was doing this in a Flash project, I essentially had a global CurrentSelected variable where I stored a link to whatever was last clicked. So down at the bottom of the onMouseUp function, you could then add something like CurrentSelected = evt.currentTarget, which you would then be able to use in your kbdHitTest somehow. And yeah, in my Flash project I added a glow filter to the object currently selected.

ClayUUID wrote Now, nominalBounds is something that doesn't exist in the vanilla CreateJS library. This is a property added by the Flash/Animate exporter, representing an object's dimensions at 100% scale with no rotation. The exporter can add this information because Animate does know the exact size of its objects, being far less limited than the HTML5 canvas API. This may be another stupid question (but hey, why stop now when I'm on a roll!) but where can I find a list of all the non-standard goodies that Animate CC is adding? I know there's exportRoot and now I also know there's nominalBounds, but is there a complete listing somewhere for all this stuff? Thanks again, guys! All this help and insight is much appreciated!

No. Don't do this. Default parameters are not currently supported in desktop Internet Explorer, so anyone trying to run this code in IE will just get a crash. Yeah, I already knew not to do that one, since I'm converting those phrases pretty much non-stop while converting all my AS3. And FWIW, like 90% of my audience is Win IE 11.

Wow, that is actually really useful! I am about to leave for the day, but I'll try this out first thing in the morning. Thanks for the help!

First off, there is the issue that if you have three objects on-stage that are supposed to land on three different targets, how do you know which object the keyboard is controlling? But assuming you use the last one clicked or something like that... Basically, after each keypress, you're going to have to compare the location of some point on the currently selected object against the target point for that object and then essentially decide if it is "close enough" to be labelled a hit and snap it into place. I'm not super familiar with this part of the EaselJS library yet, so there may be an easier way, but essentially it will be a function like kbdHitTest( myObj, myTarg ) { var closeEnough = 6; if( (Math.abs(myObj.x - myTarg.x) <= closeEnough) && (Math.abs(myObj.y - myTarg.y) <= closeEnough) ) { myObj.x = myTarg.x; myObj.y = myTarg.y; } } Then, after the switch(e.keyCode) statement in your moveOne function, you'd call kbdHitTest( currentObj, currentTarg ); Hope that helps!

So my march towards conversion of all my Flash code continues in reasonably successful fashion except I've hit a new irritant. I am trying to create "inverse" text, which essentially means dynamically drawing a box behind the text. Which I was able to do in Flash quite easily, but in HTML5 not so much. For starters, the first major road block is that myDisplay.myBG.getBounds().width and myDisplay.myBG.getBounds().height DO NOT exist by default on a simply square fill MovieClip!!! Anyone know an easy way around this? It seems crazy to me that this is the case, but it is literally commented upon right in the EasleJS documentation: Shape Does not currently support automatic bounds calculations. Use setBounds() to manually define bounds. Additionally, to add insult to injury, the setBounds() command does NOTHING to change the width or height of the object. And setTransform() seems like an incredibly tedious way to be going about this. Any tips or pointers on where to get better ways to deal with simple shapes and modifying them would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
