Questions

I seem to remember there is a way to do this. Might not even be part of TLF. In particular I will need to get the String and also its position within its parent container so I can access neighbouring words.

Hi all,I am using text layout framework in my application. I am using textflow as editor to my application. As text layout framework supports multiple languages. I a m able to see the text in multiple languages.Now my doubt is, can I type in different languages? For example: As in word if we choose the font as Hindi then whatever we type it comes in Hindi.I need just like that.Is it possible with text layout framework?If yes then how?Thanks in advance.

What happened to this file? I've looked everywhere for it, and I can't find it in framework/should be here, checked many of the open source branch versions and I see in the log files that its being changed, but yet the physical file is no where to be seen.Am I missing something, other than this file? heh, if someone could post it that would be of great help.

One of the examples I spotted in the docs suggested that text could flow within two containers that had two circle graphics in them. I read this as being able to flow the text within the circles but attempting this resulted in standard rectangular containers and flow. Am I missing something? Should I be able to define the shape of the flow with the graphics within a container?

Hi,I'm trying to appl style on a selected text using the "ApplyElementStyleNameOperation".But what I get is that all the text from beginning of selection till end of text is deleted.The code is as follows:var txtSel:SelectionState= new SelectionState(_focusedTextArea.textFlow,_focusedTextArea.selectionAnchorPosition,_focusedTextArea.selectionActivePosition);var applyStyle:ApplyElementStyleNameOperation = new ApplyElementStyleNameOperation(txtSel,_focusedTextArea.textFlow,STYLE_NAME,_focusedTextArea.selectionAnchorPosition,_focusedTextArea.selectionActivePosition);var ed:EditManager = EditManager(_focusedTextArea.textFlow.interactionManager);ed.doOperation(applyStyle);I've debugged and found out that the flowElements disappears inside the EditManger.doOperation, after the line "operation = doInternal(operation);"Can anyone help ?

When Setting Vertical Align on a TextFlow to VerticalAlign.MIDDLE or VerticalAlign.BOTTOM, The First TextFlowLine Selection and Caret is vertically offset with respect to the distance of vertical space between the top of the Container boundary and the top of the First Line of Text.What is the trick to make the Text Selection line up on the First TextFlowLine when verticalAlign is not set to 'top'?below is a simple code example that demonstrates it. The first line of text "Hello World" is positioned properly, however when you click onthe TextLine to edit it, the Caret appears some 100 pixels below where its supposed to, and so does the text selection.I am loading this module within an app that is compiled in SDK 3.2/******************************      BEGIN CODE ******************************/package {    import flash.text.engine.BreakOpportunity;        import flashx.textLayout.container.ContainerController; &nb

I must be missing something simple here. Using the TextLayout component in CS4 (not Flex) to create dynamically loaded fonts in individal SWF files. Everything works fine, except I can't see where to embed Italic and Bold font styles.When I click EMBED FLASH FONTS In the TextLayout window, there is only one choce per font family; for example, only one Arial font listed to embed. If I then create some text in the window specifying Arial font and Lookup = Embedded CFF, I can't apply Bold or Italic to the text - or rther,  can apply them but the text does not display the style. Setting Lookup = Device shows the style. Further, when I load the SWF into my main application, isFontCompatible(...) shows true for ("Arial", "normal", "normal")  but false for ("Arial", "bold", "normal"). So how do I embed Arial Italic?

Hello,How do I go about using TextFlowUtil in CS4?  What project settings do I need to update.  I have tried a variety of source and library paths to no avail.  What I am trying to accomplish is importing saved markup into a Flash CS4 app that was exported from a Flex app via TextFlowUtil.I have the TextLayout component installed in Flash CS4 and it works fine.  I just can't seem to get TextFlowUtil working.thanks,jr

How to calculate the number of operations in Undo/Redo stack?I tried to override UndoManager.pushUndo method and increment "operationsCounter" there, but pushUndo is called each time I make a change in text.Another idea was to override EditManager.finalizeDo and use "operationsCounter" there, but finalizeDo is private...Do you have any idea?

Anyone have a solution to get a InlineGraphicElement's x y position relative to the container after composition?I can reference the element's graphic property which returns the displayObject.  From there I tried using the getBounds method, but coordinates it returns seems off.Basically, I have a sprite in the textFlow that is an InlineGraphicElement.  I want to place a Flex UIComponent over the sprite after composition.Thanks.
