I noticed some chatter on the list about determining lines in TextFields, etc., and I thought I'd mention that I just posted a new TextMetrics class on my blog that'll help figure out:
- x/y coordinates and width/height of each line of text - x/y coordinates and width/height of any substring (very useful for positioning things around or on certain strings in a dynamic or input TextField) - each line of text (for seeing where the line breaks are) It's probably overkill for many applications, but it was indispensable on a recent project I worked on, so I figured I'd pass it along. There's a visual sample and some brief documentation on the site. http://www.greensock.com/ActionScript/TextMetrics/ Hope some folks find it useful. Jack Doyle PS TweenLite & TweenFilterLite were recently updated as well to make sequencing more intuitive. _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
