[flexcoders] Re: Issue with truncateToFit behavior of Label while scaling

[tex_learning_flex]

Alex,

truncation may work for SimpleText but when adding truncate to Label it appears 
that it is NOT supported, and the following error is generated:

Cannot resolve attribute 'truncation' for component type 
spark.components.Label.        TEST_ItemRenderer.mxml  /TestProject/src/       
line 70 Flex Problem


any idea of how to truncate LABEL text?

many thanks,

Tex
