I do think I understood you just right:

it won't!

(My complicated sort of workaround suggestion might have confused you - sorry)


PS: Just to be sure: We are talking about text in a selectable textfield, tat is published (in a swf) not sone behavior in the autoring tool?

As far as I know you can't.

It is very annoying, as the backgroundcolor is always black and text is always white. So if you have hwite text on black backgroun you cant even see what you selected. I consider that a bug.

You could try working around the color isso with complicated listener, tha would cleat the selection when the mouse stops, and color the previously selected text, but copa and paste wouldn't work any longer, and you would have to color the background by drawing a clip on your own...

Not really fun to do.
