smoothscroller2 text 2 Months ago
i have dropped smoothscroller2 on the stage and have given it the instance name: HomeTextScroller.
I have dropped an edit block onto that.
Now I must be able to use the editor to add text directly into the smoothscroller2, right?
I go to the texteditor and put in some text but no text appears in the smoothscroller2. What am i overlooking?

So now I have created a MC named: HomeTextFieldMC

I have given this MC the Linkage ID: HomeTextFieldMC

In this MC is a textfield set for Dynamic Text. It has the Instance Name: HomeTextField

On the frame that holds the textField I have actionscript:
Code: :

 HomeTextField.autoSize true



On the textfield I have dropped an editblock

Back on the _root timeline, on the frame that holds the HomeTextScroller, I have added actionscript:
Code: :

 HomeTextScroller.linkContent "HomeTextFieldMC"



(This links the HomeTextFieldMC into the HomeTextScroller)


This works, but have I gone the long way round?

When you first drop an Editblock onto the smooth scroller 2 you should see the option to either enter text or select an linkID. Try Clearing the Editblock from the edit menu.

I have done this. In the editor I do get the text editor for this SmoothScroller2. I add text into the text editor, but no text appears in the SmoothScroller2. I can add an image into the SmoothScroller2 and see this image too,
see; http://www.vanschaykvof.nl/test1
Logged in on the homepage you will see two SmoothScroller2 components below. The smaller one on the left is the one with just an editblock dropped onto it. The right SmoothScroller2 is the one with a MC linked into it using AS.

Your post sounds like the fonts are not embedded. But on testing the link the smooth scroller 2 on the front page works perfectly.

I am having this same problem. I think it has to do with my embedded fonts because I can see the text in the text editor fine. Even when I save the information I can go back into the text editor it is still there. But I can not see it on my site.


*** EDIT *** Nevermind I found the solution here: http://flashblocks.com/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,62/func,view/id,5454/catid,9/limit,12/ limitstart,12/

Needing to copy the "blank" movie clip from the demo site.
