I am using Actionscript to create the TextFX instance and I need to know how to load text with html tags and have it render as HTML.

In case you need it - below is the code I'm using:

if (this.loaderInfo.parameters.textField1) {
this.textField1.text = this.loaderInfo.parameters.textField1;
}

import xtd.textFX_v2.effects.CameraDepthEffect;
import xtd.textFX_v2.effects.NoneEffect;
import xtd.textFX_v2.presets.actions_NoneEffect;
import xtd.textFX_v2.presets.out_BlindsEffect;
import xtd.textFX_v2.TextFXMain;
var tfx:TextFXMain;
var a:CameraDepthEffect;
var b:NoneEffect;
var c:xtd.textFX_v2.effects.NoneEffect;
this.html = true;
this["textField1"].visible=false;

tfx = new TextFXMain(
this,
"CameraDepthEffect",
"NoneEffect",
"NoneEffect",
"NoneEffect",
"verticalPosition=200;fade=100;blurQuality=2;maxBlur=30;ordering=Random;delayBetweenPieces=0.1;horizontalPosition=75;duration=60;easingType=Regular.easeOut;blockType=Word;",
actions_NoneEffect.Extend_Default,
actions_NoneEffect.Extend_Default,
actions_NoneEffect.Extend_Default,
TextField(this["textField1"]).htmlText,
null,
"moveEasing=Regular.easeOut;moveDuration=50;moveFromX=200;moveFromY=200;delayTime=0;loop=false;useIn=true;useWait=true;afterInDelay=0;afterWaitDelay=0;useOut=false;useInAsOut=false;"
);

tfx.container.x=200;
tfx.container.y=150;

tfx.start();

I solved it - right in the beginning I had:

this.textField1.text = this.loaderInfo.parameters.textField1;

That needed to be:

this.textField1.htmlText = this.loaderInfo.parameters.textField1;

Hello Pedro,

Yes, you need to add the text in the textfield using the "htmlText" property in order to render it as HTML. You could also select the TextField on the stage and check the "render as HTML" box from the properties panel.

Regards,
Andrei
