[Xerte] Using stylesheet in Xerte3

Tue Jun 29 10:44:55 BST 2010

Ah - 4.1 is the stable build 16076.

Go with the 4.0 release for now, and when I get a chance I'll test my
code against 4.1

I also changed the setting to trust my c: harddrive, which contains my
Xerte project folder, but that does not solve the problem. So: if you
compile the stylesheet you sent me and include it in your piece it
loads/works fine? Did you try recently?

Sounds like you are doing everything right. Is it the latest release
SDK?

Do you have the right settings in the Flash settings Manager? I tend to
trust all my drive for flash movies, and find from time to time that the
settings manager drops my settings: this stops local files loading. Are
you on Windows?

It creates fine. I also tried to do it manually, it gives no error and
writes a styles.swf (28kb).

Do you have the Flex4 SDK in the flexSDK folder? Are you actually
creating a styles.swf?

I tried the below stylesheet, compiled it and included it in my piece.
Now the piece just does not compile any more. The Output just shows load
time ... and stops there. As soon as I delete the stylesheet property
from the application icon everything works fine.  I also tried with my
simple test file  - same result.

Try this: you need the namespaces in there, I think then you should be
able to try a .test style, but get this working first

So this is the last status: As soon as I include a stylesheet my module
does not load any more ... (see below).

I tried with just a simple 

.test {

   color: #ff0000;

}

this also prevents my piece from compiling ... so it's not the font-face
thing.

So I tried again to work on the Stylesheet issue with Xerte3. This time
I tried to embed an external font which should work like that:

styles.css:

@font-face {

            src: url("media/myfont.ttf");

            fontFamily: myFont;

       cff: false;

}

As soon as I include the generated swf as stylesheet in my Application
Icon the application does not compile any more ...

Any news on how to create/apply styles correctly? I'm very willing to
try!

I tried different versions. With custom namespace and without. If you
use the .xxxx as class style it seems to be OK for Flex, it doesn't warn
you about missing namespaces. If you try to style tags / custom tags
like p, h1, my_tag it creates a warning, that you need a namespace for
that tag.

does you css have the namespaces a tthe top?

Tried

test {
   color: #ff0000;
}

which throws a warning "'test' must be qualified with a namespace".
Nevertheless a styles.swf is created. But Text with <test>My Text</test>
does not change ...
