Hello,
I am trying to assign a new StyleSheet object to the stylesheet
property of a TextArea control. When I create that TextArea
declarative using mxml I get an exception saying:
Error: Error #2009: This method cannot be used on a text field with a
style sheet.

mx.core::UIComponent/mx.core:UIComponent::callLaterDispatcher()[C:\dev\GMC\sdk\frameworks\mx\core\UIComponent.as:7732]
The code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import ....
public function inits():void {
var style:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
/* var heading:Object = new Object();
heading.fontWeight = "bold";
heading.color = "#FF0000";
var body:Object = new Object();
body.fontStyle = "italic";
style.setStyle(".heading", heading);
style.setStyle("body", body); */
thetextarea.htmlText = "<body><span
class='heading'>Hello
</span>World...</body>";
thetextarea.styleSheet = style;
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Button x="171" y="323" label="Button" click="inits()"/>
<mx:TextArea id="thetextarea" x="40" y="245" width="800" />
</mx:Application>
If you instanciate the TextArea programatically then you get a "null
pointer" type of exception.
Any ideas?
M.
