Hello, I hope someone can help me.

textField.rotation don't work !

in Animate Air IOS .

Also on Ipad there isn't  Comic Sans lettertyp in TextField.

On other places there's no problem.

I have include Comic Sans MS in library, actionscriptname:ComicSansMS.

Below my code:

format1.font="ComicSansMS";

format1.size=30;

format1.bold=true;

_scoreField.border=false;

_scoreField.width = 50;

_scoreField.height = 50;

_scoreField.x=190;

_scoreField.y=343;

_scoreField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.CENTER;

_scoreField.rotation=90;

_scoreField.defaultTextFormat=format1;

_scoreField.text = String(0);

addChild(_scoreField);

The number is invisible;

when i remove "_scoreField.rotation=90;" code, it is visible but not with rotation.

Thanks in advance!

Hi.

Adapting the example from this link: ActionScript - Rotating Text .

import flash.text.Font;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
var format1:TextFormat;
var _scoreField:TextField;
var enumerableFonts:Array = Font.enumerateFonts(false);
format1 = new TextFormat();
format1.font = "ComicSansMS";
format1.size = 30;
format1.bold = true;
format1.font = enumerableFonts.length > 0 ? enumerableFonts[0]["fontName"] : "There are no embedded fonts.";
_scoreField = new TextField();
_scoreField.embedFonts = true;
_scoreField.defaultTextFormat = format1;
_scoreField.border = false;
_scoreField.width = 50;
_scoreField.height = 50;
_scoreField.x= 190;
_scoreField.y= 343;
_scoreField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.CENTER;
_scoreField.rotation = 90;
_scoreField.text = String(0);
addChild(_scoreField);

I hope it helps.

Regards,

JC

Normally, anytime you start rotating a dynamic textfield you need to embed the font in it.

    Thank you Ned for the reply. Yes i have embedded the font of course.

    And give it an actionscript name;

    It is a device font. maybe  was it important to say that about it.
