Hi, No there are no anchors in Flash TextField. But I think, this could be done with scroll/maxscroll properties of TextField, but its not trivial to make..might require some logic...
Why don't you think to solve this using different approach? Like when someone click on titles, show the corresponding text in textfield... Something similar.. Why to make user scroll through a long textfield, having 10 pages of text might slow the application also... -abdul -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ben Deroo Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2005 10:43 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Flashcoders] anchors in dynamic textfield? Hi, Bit of a problem: I have a dynamic textfield which loads about 10 pages of text externally. Textfield is formatted as html text. In the 10 pages, there are a few dozen "titles", definitions of words ... These titles are all formatted in bold type <b>title1</b>. Is there a way in actionscript to have the text jump up or down with a button from "title" to title? Meaning: titles are always one word, the explanation might sometimes be a few paragraphs, I'd like the user to be able to click on something like a "next" button that would then scroll the text field down to the next title. In Dreamweaver, I would do this with "anchor" tags, but I don't know how to do this in actionscripting Might be simple, might be impossible, but any help would be greatly appreciated!
