hi guys, how r u all doin'?
here is the thing:
i started 2 do a family tree for my family...
i examined several softwares and i liked "great family tree".
so i started to build up the tree, and i've got the idea to make the tree a flash movie
(*.swf) so i used a very basic program with no options what so ever (get the tree press ok and then it makes the flash movie).
the flash movie that was created uses a text file to load all of the data on ppl (name, age ect.), but,
the text that was in the family tree was in hebrew so of course i got a text file with gebrish or something that was not hebrew or any other language i know.
so my brother found this web site that converts this unknown language into hebrew.
so i have the text file in hebrew and the flash movie...
but the flash movie wont show the hebrew text in hebrew... it shows strang markings and squares insted of the text, so i figured that the flash doesn't support hebrew or the font in the movie isn't right....
i used "******* SWF Decompiler" to make an .fla file and used "macromedia flash mx" to watch the action script and all of the components in the flash movie.
i saw that in one of the lines it defines an instance of a class called "TextFormat"
and there is a property called "Font" that gets the name of the font... and the name was "Tahoma" so i changed it into "David" (that supports hebrew)
i thought - how easy could it b?
i was wrong! no matter what value i put in the field nothing worked, i toke the name of the font from the list of fonts in flash, so i wouldn't have spelling problems...
it didn't worked....
any ideas anybody??
i've attached the .fla file and the .sqf file and the text file (in hebrew) so if someone got to this line of the thread, he can help me...
(the text file has to b in the same folder as the movie for it 2 work)
thanx in advance guys...
