Hmmm splitting into smaller textfields doesn't seem to help unless you mean really small textfields (like 2 or 3 lines each?) Also, this would stop the text from being selectable (which I would like to avoid)
The problem seems to be related to the amount of text in the swf rather than the size of one particular textfield. Were you able to identify the specific problem? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adrian Ionut Beschea Sent: 08 February 2008 09:30 To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Slow textfield performance - anyone experiencedthis? yes, I ran into that one once. my sollution back then was to split the text into multiple textfields Kevin Heppell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hello In a flash site I've created with large textfields the performance just grinds to a halt... I'm using device fonts and tried the embed options but that doesn't make any difference. It isn't a problem with the development test movie player. I've tested it in IE, Firefox, Safari and it is the same on all browsers on the same machine. Strangely it is only a problem on some computers - I thought it might be to do with having Flash CS3 installed but disqualified that theory. It doesn't seem to be based on the version of the Flash Player either, nor on Vista / XP. Any other ideas? Has anyone come across this before?
