All-
I'm sorry to do this and I'm sure someone has an explanation here, but I'm
at my wit's end.
I have an empty swf that is loading another swf with all of my views, assets
etc. I am creating
a font symbol in the "view" swf's library to be used later by dynamic
TextFields. The font symbol
is being exported for ActionScript and has a linkage identifier. From the
container swf I'm
dynamically creating dynamic TextFields within the "view" swf and setting
the embedFonts and
text properties appropriately like so:
textTitleFormat = new TextFormat();
textTitleFormat.font = "AkzidenzGroteskBE";
textTitleFormat.color = 0x51433D;
textTitleFormat.align = "left";
textTitleFormat.underline = true;
textTitleFormat.size = 24;
titleText = curProductText.createTextField("Title" + "_" + date.getTime(),
curProductText.getNextHighestDepth(), this.View.copyBox.Title._x,
this.View.copyBox.Title._y, this.View.copyBox.Title._width,
this.View.copyBox.Title._height);
titleText.text = title; // where title is a string; this is tracing out the
value I expect
titleText.type = "dynamic";
titleText.embedFonts = true;
titleText.antiAliasType = "normal";
titleText.setTextFormat(textTitleFormat);
The question I have is it possible to apply a TextFormat to a TextField
using an embedded font that is NOT
in the container swf's library? If not then that is my problem and I think I
can use shared libraries to counter
this behavior. Either way, I was wondering if someone could clarify some of
this for me.
Thanks,
Thomas
