Comment on SoTexty AS3 Text Effects Framework by sakri

Hi Vasile,

I got sidetracked trying to perfect the 3d text thing. I think the project was a bit ambitious, I’m currently considering slimming it down a bit and releasing a stable first version which I can build on. I think the “vector” effects bit is gonna be a separate library. There hasn’t been much interest in this project, so I haven’t been that motivated, but I do want it for personal use if nothing else, so when time permits, I’ll surely be sharing the code.

Great effects, don’t you want to publish the code?

Comment on Insert image from File System into text using the Text Layout Framework by sakri

Hi Deep,

As far as I know, there is no direct way to do that. I made an editor, and the way around this was to immediately save any images on a server, this way I know the path. I stored all these paths in an array, with references to the image items in the TextFlow. This way, at “export time”, I would run through all the ["Object bitmap"] items, and replace the xml with the paths I stored in the array. Quite a nasty work around, but I got it to work. Unfortunately I can’t share the code as this was a project for a client. Hopefully you get the idea though. Best of luck!

Hello
I used this code to insert an inline image but when i am exporting the XML,source attribute of has value ["object bitmap"].
e.g
I want the exact path or at least name of the image with extension in my XML as a source so that i can distinguish the different images inserted in my text.

thanks.

Thanks guys!

@makc hmm… The size of the render is based on stage.stageHeight. Why would that be 0 for you? It’s calculated only when clicking GO, so way past initialization and so…

I also had someone tell me that the app crashed their firefox at stratup. Something surely is fishy.

Lee Probert, looking cool! Plenty of potential here
