The simplest solution I can think of is to put the textfield into a movieclip and then change the movieclip's _width property to math the width of the label.

This require changing the aspect ratio of the text - expanding or compressing its width relative to its height. Of course it is easy to do within Flash - but I can't find any way to do it dynamically using ActionScript. Does anyone know if it can be done?
