Hello,I am encountering some difficulties getting markup that I created in a Flash Builder TextArea to look the same once it's imported into a Flash TLFTextField object.  The content and styling (most) makes it over, but there are leading issues and some styling information not being used.  To get the markup into the TLFField I use:tlfTextField.tlfMarkup = markupXML;I've tried the following as well, but when I do nothing seems to happen.tlfTextField.textFlow = TextFlowUtil.importFromXML(markupXML);Any thoughts?thanks,jr

I'm working on an application that uses embedded fonts. After the initial import, the fonts do not render correctly, when I use several fonts.If after the import I change the font, it works correctly.Any idea will be truly appreciated.

Hi,I am using several containers that display one textflow. Is there a way to trace the seperate texts that are being displayed in every container?Example:This is the text: "This is a really long text that is divided over several containers."container1 displays: "This is a really long ".container2 displays: "text that is divided ".container3 displays: "over several containers ".Now let's say I want to trace the text that is displayed by container2, so "text that is divided ".My first attempt was to get all the TextLines that exist in container2. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to get the raw text out of these TextLines.I hope someone can point me in the right direction?Regards,Jorenvans

hi everybody,i downloaded a code from http://www.neave.com/dandelion/and i wanted to make few changes on it.

I have a long document with a single textflow with a Div for each page.I assign one Div at a time to a TextArea for editing.I am doing a classical Find/Text sequence, first within a Div,then beyond the Div in the larger textflow.If I edit within a Div and the length of the Div text is changed,I don't know how to apply the Div changes to the long textflowso the next Find position is correct - it's off by the number ofcharacters equal to the length of the edited page length.Here's a puzzling bit of code:            var l2:int = rtEditor.textFlow.flowComposer.damageAbsoluteStart;            rtEditor.textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers();            l2 = rtEditor.textFlow.flowComposer.damageAbsoluteStart;Under the circumstances described, l2 is correct. When updateAllControllers executes, it's still non-zero afterwards.

I am making a custom RTE and have a method that inserts a hype link into the text area.  I have found that this works fine, except when I have modified the text in someway (i.e font size, wieght etc) then the link style does not appear.  The link is there, it is clickable when holding down the ctrl key.  Is this a bug, or does anyone have a way of fixing this?  Here is some simple code that I get the same wierdness from as well.  I just applied the font changes to the textArea in the creation complete, type some text, highlight it and click the button to apply a google.com link, and no blue underline style occurs:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"               xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"               xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/m

Hello,I am building a Spark-based TLF text editing component I'll be using in major application and I admit I am struggling.It sure would be nice if Adobe was able to release the source code for the demo editors they have up on the Lab site, but I digress.Anyway, I stumbled upon the EditManager and its capabilities today.The way I am going about this is attaching a new EditManager instance to the textFlow.interactionManager property of a Spark TextArea control.One thing I note when I do this is that the cursor doesn't appear in the TextArea with the above property set.  That seems like it is a bug but it could be that the way I am going about trying to use an EditManager instance with the Spark TextArea is not best practice.I am struggling to insert a link into the TextArea with the EditManager.applyLink method.I am doing something like this:var em:IEditManager = textArea.textFlow.interactionManager as IEditManager;var stringLength:int = myString.length; // this is the length of t

Here it says that this example is more of an explanation of framework than best practice because of the conflation of integration/unit testing concepts: http://docs.flexunit.org/index.php?title=Using_Asynchronous_Startup My question is, how do you define a line here between unit testing and integration testing? What kind of UI components asynchronous tests are then considered to be unit tests and not yet integration tests? Many books recommend having 100% code coverage with unit tests. How would this example look like, to be considered only a unit test and not integration test?

Heya,Trying to figure out how to do a horizontally scrolled text reader thing, but I can't get the width of the text.I'm just using a RichText container in Flex 4/AIR2 Beta 2, setting height="100% for the RichText container.For the TextFlow I'm setting columnWidth and columnGap, but it's not giving me any columns.What am I doing wrong?Cheers,Erik

HelloI am trying to attaching tooltips to the link elements in my text flow.I added the roll over event listener with the link element and then trying to display the href of link element in the tool tip.The problem is when I am trying to get the particular link element over which the mouse is rolling as evt.currentTarget as linkElement,it is null.When I try to check it using trace, the output was [Object eventDispatcher]. I am writing the few effect related lines of my code:linkElement.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,applyToolTipToLink);and after adding event, I am creating tooltip usingprivate function applyToolTipToLink(evt:Event):void{      var linkElem:LinkElement = evt.currentTarget as LinkElement;      spriteToolTip = ToolTipManager.createToolTip(linkElem.href,this.mouseX + 10,this.mouseY)as ToolTip;}Doesn't meet the required results and exception arise is "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."Any Solution.

Hi,I'm doing this to find the coordinates of a flowElement in the text flowvar flowline:TextFlowLine = textFlow.flowComposer.findLineAtPosition( flowElement.getAbsoluteStart() ); var rect:Rectangle = flowline.getBounds();With this, I get x and y of the whole line, x is always the container padding.How can I get the coordinates of a character, not the whole line?Tks.

Hi,The new TextArea and TextConverter import/export functionality looks very promising for finally manipulating rich text in our Flex apps,  but we really need full HTML conversion support (not just the current subset).  There is so much to be gained from completing this - you can look at the Flex forums and see that people want to use Flex but cannot because of the lack of rich text support.Can someone please ping in with any dates on when this would be completed?Thanks, Dave

Anybody knows?

Hi,I am trying to user TextFlow in my chat applictaion,everything working fine including emoticons but when these emoticons increases in numbers say 1000 then browser is gets hang.:(I dont no what to do in this scenario.Currently I have showsn only previous 100 chats but what if user enters 1000 emoticon in single chat message?

Hi, I am using the new way of creating unit tests following this page http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashbuilder/using/WS27ECA937-059A-4308-A2E2-F3A3AAB64337.html#WSF04FE993-D0BA-4a2b-BDF1-8B8ABF22E448, which is really easier and more efficient than old ways. But I then found that the old ANT task "flexunit" for running unit test not working any more.  So if I want to get the results of unit testing from a CI server, how could I do now?Thanks a lotMichael

If you use TLF fonts in any way inside a .SWF that is loaded as a resource within Flash Builder 4, you can't reference any of the instance names in the stage---everything breaks.Here is a sample (not mine) and better explanation:TLF Text breaks swfs Embedded in FlashBuilder I just spent quite awhile trying to figure out a pretty obnoxious bug I just discovered in CS5. My workflow typically includes a .fla file with all of the assets for a project that I will embed as a byte array in Flash Builder using code like this:[Embed(source=”assets/PROJECT_library.swf”, mimeType=”application/octet-stream”)]private var AssetLibrary : Class;Then in my library I have a MovieClip and the Class set to com.test.TLFText. The mc has just one textfield in it with an instance name of tlf_txt.If you have a Class assigned to a MovieClip that contains a TLF TextField and try to load that swf into flashbuilder like I explain above, you will not be able to create any classes out of elements in your library.Ope

Hi,I need A WYSIWYG editor, for that I am using Flex textlayout framework. My editor also supports smilies. To insert smilies I refered the example:http://www.sakri.net/blog/2009/03/23/insert-image-from-file-system-into-text-using-the-text-layout-framework/It is inserting the smiley.Now my requirement is instead of smilies I need to store there code like: for ":)". So I am exporting the textflow & then trying to process the exported xml.The problem I am facing is: I am unable to get the path of the smiley image inserted. Coz the above example inserts the image in the form of BitmapData. I also tried to get value of source attribute of flow.p.img but didn't get the path of the inserted smiley.Please help me in getting any wayout.Thanks in advance.

Hi, My Flash Player version:   10,1,50,433   (Debug version)My Flex SDK: 4.5 downloaded from the trunk.  SVN Status shows no updates required.Font embedding is not working.   I read some other threads on this, but  it's pretty confusing stuff. Perhaps I just need confirmation if there is a bug in Flex 4.5 and if it's not currently possible to embed fonts in Flex (if that is indeed the case).Here is some my code:    [Embed(source="/assets/MyriadPro-Bold.otf", fontFamily="Myriad Pro Bold",  embedAsCFF="true")]    private var  _MyriadProBoldSubset:Class; public function FontTest() { Font.registerFont(_MyriadProBoldSubset);        textLayoutFormat = new TextLayoutFormat();        textLayoutFormat.color = 0xFFFFFF;         textLayoutFormat.renderingMode = RenderingMode.CFF;      

Does someone have experience with using justified text and automatic hyphenation in TLF? Do i need to create my own hyphenation algorythmn or is there a solution allready like squiglly?  Any pointers would be appreciated. Maurice
