[Behavior] scrolling (for text/sprite font plugin)

Update

• Fix bug.
• Now "action:set content" will scroll to the first page automatically. Hope it will not break any capx.

rexrainbow I'm having a problem with the "newline" command. if I append <font color=blue>"text"&newline</font> to a text with the normal command in the text object, it will append the text and add a new line, but when using the append command in your plugin, it appends the text but it doesnt add a new line. It only adds a newline when the text reaches the edge of the text object. am I missing something or it is something you would need to add?

Sry, my mistake. It works like a charm, I made a mistake when I tried it before.

Hello. I'd like to make touch scroll like it works on Android and iOS. But to make it I need additional functions. Can you add it?

I want to make the scrolling like this: sendspace.com/file/feye7v <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

—, thanks so much for adding this behavior! Worked perfectly on an informational app I've been working on.

MotoR, you could try out septeven's wonderful iScroll plugin for touch scroll functions.

But iScroll is for text lines only. I want the user to scroll a text or a html-text. There is no so plugin:(

And I want to use Scrolling behavior but I need several additional functions like these:

1. GetScrollPosition - to get the current position in pixels

2. SetScrollPosition - to set the current position in pixels

3. GetScrollHeight = to get the scroll height

Hello rex,

Can you give me an example for responsive scrolling text?

I got the problem when i input the text (on scrolling text), and it has not reached the height value, my input text doesnt appear.

Here is the .capx

Cheers!

Does anybody know how to use the mouse for scrolling instead of the touch button?

Behavior: scrolling

Update: 2013/06/29

Note: this behavior is for text plugin or official sprite font plugin, NOT for sprite.

This behavior try to make official text object become a "scrollable" text object by maintain a content buffer in plugin.

Demo

Capx - scroll next line

Capx - scroll bar

There are two sample capx files. One is scrolled by keyboard, the other is scrolled by scrollbar.

Usage:

Set content

- action: Set content

- action: Append content

Scrolling

- action: Scroll by percentage (combine with scrollbar)

- action: Scroll to next line/Scroll to previous line

- action: Scroll to next page/Scroll to previous page

Get content

- expression: Text

Can anyone help me with this plugin please

I have attached a capx with a simple page turning text app

The scrolling behavior seems to be miscalculating the size of the visible page.

Or am I missing something obvious.

Thanks in advance for you help

I have to create a chat window like Facebook in my game. So can I scroll sprite objects along with the text using this plugin? or what else can be done to implement something like that.

I saw that the plugin can only append text for scrolling, is there any way I could scroll objects too?
