Actually, the person who told you to use just autosize has it wrong. If you
set a textfield to autosize, it will expand the right edge to fit the text,
so unless you're putting linebreaks in your text manually, it won't adjust
the height of the textfield.
There's a kludge workaround for making textfields have width and height and
be autosized with wordwrap, and here it is:
this.createTextField("label", 1, 0, 0, myWidth, lineHeight);
this.label.wordWrap = true;
this.label.multiline = true;
this.label.autoSize = true;
this.label.text = someText;
// KLUDGE
var textHgt = this.label.textHeight;
var tfHgt = this.label._height;
var diff = tfHgt - textHgt;
this.label.autoSize = false;
this.label._height = textHgt + diff;
// END KLUDGE
HTH,
Steven
