Hi!
I wonder if there is a way to count characters visible in a textfield? I
have a text where not all characters are embeded in the textfield and I
want to check how many that are.. So it would be great if there was I
way to check the length of the text in the textfield and not the
original string.
I use this code, but it returns the same number of characters even
though the textfield displays less characters.
latin1 = "ÀÁÂÃÄÅ..";
trace("latin1 " + latin1.length);
txt_tf.text = latin1;
trace("txt_tf.text " + txt_tf.text.length);
Thanks in advance!
Ellen
