Package | flashx.textLayout.elements |
Class | public final class InlineGraphicElement |
Inheritance | InlineGraphicElement FlowLeafElement FlowElement Object |
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
You can embed a graphic or any DisplayObject or specify a URl for the location of the graphic.
The height
and width
properties of InlineGraphicElement control the actual size
of the graphic to display. These values also control how much space to allocate
for the graphic in the TextLine object that contains the graphic.
The height
and width
properties each can be one of:
- A number of pixels
- A percent of the measured size of the image
- The constant, "auto", which computes the size (Default value)
- The
width
andheight
properties - The
measuredWidth
andmeasuredHeight
properties, which are the width or height of the graphic at load time - The
actualWidth
andactualHeight
properties, which are the actual display and compose width and height of the graphic as computed fromwidth
orheight
andmeasuredWidth
ormeasuredHeight
The values of the actualWidth
and actualHeight
properties are always zero until the graphic
is loaded.
If source
is specified as a URI, the graphic is loaded asynchronously. If it's a DisplayObject, TextLayout uses the width
and
height
at the time the graphic is set into the InlineGraphicElement object as measuredHeight
and measuredWidth
;
its width and height are read immediately.
Notes: For graphics that are loaded asynchronously the user must listen for a
StatusChangeEvent.INLINE_GRAPHIC_STATUS_CHANGE event on the TextFlow and call IFlowComposer.updateAllControllers()
to have the
graphic appear. The value of measuredWidth
and measuredHeight
for graphics that are in the
process of loading is zero.
Some inline graphics are animations or videos that possibly have audio. They begin to run the first time they are composed after they finish loading. They don't stop running until the flowComposer on the TextFlow is set to null. At that time they are stopped and unloaded.
The following restrictions apply to InLineGraphicElement objects:- On export of TLFMarkup, source is converted to a string. If the graphic element is a class, the Text Layout Framework can't export it properly .
- When doing a copy/paste operation of an InlineGraphicElement, if source can't be used to create a new InLineGraphicElement, it won't be pasted. For example if source is a DisplayObject, or if the graphic is set directly, it can't be duplicated. Best results are obtained if the source is the class of an embedded graphic though that doesn't export/import.
- InLineGraphicElement objects work in the factory (TextFlowTextLineFactory) only if the source is a class or if you explicitly set the graphic to a loaded graphic. InlineGraphic objects that require delayed loads generally do not show up.

actualHeight | property |
actualHeight:Number
[read-only] Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
The actual height in effect. This is the display and compose height that's computed from the
height
and measuredHeight
properties.
The values of the actualHeight
property are computed according to the following table:
height property | actualHeight |
---|---|
auto | measuredheight |
h a Percent | h percent of measuredheight |
h a Number | h |
Notes: If the inline graphic is a DisplayObject, its width and height are read immmediately.
If measuredWidth
or measuredHeight
are zero, then any auto calculations that would cause a divide by zero sets the result to zero.
