The digits (7,8,9,10) are displayed just fine. I've searched in internet and reread TextField and TextFormat docs, but can't find a solution. Here is my current code (I have to use embedFonts because the playing cards can be rotated): public class Card extends Sprite { .... private var index1_txt:TextField, index2_txt:TextField; private static var BLACK:TextFormat = new TextFormat('Arial', 24, 0x000000, true); private static var RED:TextFormat = new TextFormat('Arial', 24, 0xFF0000, true); // static initializer; place "1" closer to "0" in the "10" string { BLACK.letterSpacing = -4; RED.letterSpacing = -4; } public function Card() { ..... // 2 rank indices in the corners index1_txt = new TextField(); index1_txt.x = 2 - W/2; index1_txt.y = 10 - H/2; index1_txt.width = W/4; index1_txt.height = 22; //index1_txt.defaultTextFormat = BLACK; index1_txt.embedFonts = true; index1_txt.selectable = false; addChild(index1_txt); index2_txt = new TextField(); index2_txt.x = W/2 - 2; index2_txt.y = H/2 - 10; index2_txt.width = W/4; index2_txt.height = 22; index2_txt.rotation = 180; //index2_txt.defaultTextFormat = BLACK; index2_txt.embedFonts = true; index2_txt.selectable = false; addChild(index2_txt); Please help! ;-) Alex _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders No virus found in this incoming message.
