(ActionScript 3) AS3 recursive font embed

Mon, 18 Apr 2011 14:53:13 GMT

Well….the truth is: the way Flash deals with font managing just suck! Normally, you’ll have to export the font’s characters. To do this follow these steps: On the Main Menu go to Text -> Font Embeding Click on the + thing and add a new font. Give a name to the font Select the font on the combobox, and select which group of characters to be exported. Tip: Be sure to select only the characters you’ll actually use (it doesn’t make sense to export Japanese characters to a brazilian website, right?), because flash will export them on the SWF and this will increase filesize. 5. Go to the actionscript tab and select “Export for Actionscript” Tip: This is actually optional, but if you are doing a lot of actionscript coding, it’s good to do this because you can use the font asset as an actionscript object and initialize with the new keyword and everything. 6. Select the Textfield you want that font for and type the name of the font you set on step 3. Notice that Flash will put an * after the font name. This is just to identify the font as a library asset. Now there’s the trick. For every dynamic textfield you have, you must set TextField.embedFonts = true to it’s instance.

(ActionScript 3) Strip HTML Markup

Wed, 19 Jan 2011 22:17:43 GMT

If there is ever a time when you load text from an external source containing unwanted HTML markup use the following function. This uses a regular expression to strip all HTML tags from the input string. The string “Click here to find out more” would simply be converted to “Click here to find out more.”. This returns a new string, leaving the input string unchanged.

(ActionScript 3) Remove "http://" &/or "www"

Wed, 19 Jan 2011 22:16:09 GMT

This function takes a string and returns a copy with all occurrences of http:// and https:// removed. The string, "Please visit http://example.com to find out more" would convert to "Please visit example.com to find out more". Generally this is more compact as the http:// is redundant when you are obviously referring to a URL. Optionally, this function can also strip the www subdomain by passing true as the second parameter. It's set to false by default as example.com and www.example.com could theoretically contain different websites.

(ActionScript 3) Slugify

Wed, 19 Jan 2011 22:13:41 GMT

A slug is usually a few words with each word separated by a delimiting character, usually an underscore or hyphen. A slugified version of the string “10 Tips to a Better Life!” would be “10-tips-to-a-better-life”. This function takes an arbitrary string and converts in for use as a slug. We use two regular expressions to accomplish this, the first is used to remove any character which is not a word character, space or hyphen, the second replaces any spaces with a single hyphen. Finally we convert the string to lowercase. This returns a new string, leaving the input string unchanged.
