I am setting everything before I add the data. However I have sorted the
issue out by setting the global style. I don't think its optimal - but it
works.
Here is my working code for reference:
<code>
var tClass:Class =
getDefinitionByName("GothamMedium") as Class;
Font.registerFont(tClass);
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.font = "Gotham Medium";
tf.size = 12;
tf.bold = false;
cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle("embedFonts" ,
true);
cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle("textFormat" , tf);
cmb_mc.textField.setStyle("fontFamily" , "Gotham
Medium" );
cmb_mc.textField.setStyle("embedFonts" , true );
dob_txt.embedFonts = true;
dob_txt.setTextFormat(tf);
StyleManager.setStyle("textFormat" , tf)
</code>
Many thanks for all your help
Karim

Hi,
Are you setting these values before or after you add the data? That
may have a bearing.
Have a look at this article:

Which may / may not help?
