Re: [flexcoders] Inline Design View Rich Text Editing - where?

[judah]

Hi David, In Flash you have the TextField in the toolbar. You drag that textfield to the stage and then you can highlight and select certain words and format them. You probably have about 20 different formatting options. In Flex there is no toolbar with a textfield control on it. You can add a text input, textarea or label component to the stage and double click on it and a simple single text field appears but there are no options to format the text. So any formatting that I do I have to do I do by hand in the mxml source code inside a text tag or if I'm there is a lot of formatting I'll go into Dreamweaver, format it and then copy and paste it into the mxml Text tag. But I heard that they are going to improve the inline text tool. I just want to know where they are at and what to expect.

If there aren't any at this time are there any plans to put something in before final release? I know Flex is for creating RIA's but I'm running into cases/places in my app where I'd like to format text information. What I'm doing now is jumping into Dreamweaver to edit html text that I then copy and paste inside a textarea htmlText tag. I'm not complaining. Flex has some killer features. What I want to know is if I should I fill out a feature request. Judah -- "Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing."
