Hi,

    I could not find old bookmark, but the link below shows similar idea:

    http://www.flashandmath.com/howtos/rotatetext3d/
    This is "proper" embedding.

Thanks,

I tried the embed in textfield on stage but that doesn't work for me when
adding multiple textfield dynamically.

Do you have some example code of the bitmap snaphot??

Hi,

Your text field needs to have embedFonts set to true and you need the
corresponding font characters either embedded in that text field, or
another one used in the movie.  embedFonts property should be True if
you set the embedding in the IDE.

An alternate hack for rotating is to do a bitmap "snapshot" of the text
field, then rotate the bitmap.

to do any kind of rotation / alpha transforms on a textfield, you need to
have the fonts embedded in the textfield

your text will disappear otherwise

I adjusted my Test.as:

package {

         import flash.display.*;
         import flash.text.*;

         [Embed(source="C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\Tahoma.ttf",

fontFamily="myTahoma")]

         public class Test extends MovieClip {

                 public function Test() {

                         var fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
                         fmt.font = "myTahoma";
                         fmt.size=16;
                         fmt.color=0x990000;

                         var tf:TextField = new TextField();
                         //tf.embedFonts=true; //DOES NOT WORK, MAKES TEXT
DISAPPEAR
                         tf.defaultTextFormat=fmt;
                         tf.multiline = true;
                         tf.width = 200;
                         tf.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
                         tf.wordWrap = true;
                         tf.x = 100;
                         tf.y = 100;
                         tf.htmlText = "Text to rotated<BR>Line two.";
                         addChild(tf);
                         //tf.rotation=300; //DOES NOT WORK, THIS IS THE
PROBLEM FOR ME
                  }
         }
}

off the top of my head, i don't think you can rotate dynamic text with
web
fonts. i think you need to embed the fonts, otherwise the text does not
render.

Hi List,

I want to rotate a dynamic textfield in Flash CS3 using AS3 in classes.
I want to do it all in code so nothing on the stage.
I tried different ways but it never shows.

I have set up a test fla wich can be downloaded here:

www.codobyte.com/textRotation.zip


Any help is appreciated!

Regards
Cor
