in Flash :
function createTxtLayout(X, Y, W, TXT)
{
//trace("Pages ------- createTxtLayout");
var TXTLayout:TextLayout;
var containerFormat:ContainerFormat;
//containerFormat.columnCount = 1;
//containerFormat.columnWidth = W;
var xmlTXT:XML;
xmlTXT = XML(TXT);
TXTLayout = new TextLayout()
addChild(TXTLayout);
//TXTLayout.getChildAt(2).width = 705;
TXTLayout.xmlText = xmlTXT;
TXTLayout.x = X;
TXTLayout.y = Y;
for(var i=0;i<TXTLayout.numChildren;i++)
{
trace("child "+i+ "is"+ TXTLayout.getChildAt(2).width);
}
}
Im desperate for a solution, i have tried adding columnWidth="705" columnCount="1" without any luck. when i trace TextLayout 3rd child which is a Sprite i get 550 as width.i wana be able set the width of the textLayout to 705px.
When i select the text and drag i can see the rest of the text,so it looks like theirs a mask on top.
Any Suggestions?
