> I don't know of a way to do justified text in Flex
textAlign="justify" works on <mx:Text> and <mx:TextArea>, although it isn't mentioned in the ASDoc for the textAlign style or in FlexBuilder's codehints for this style. See the flash.text.TextFormatAlign class in the ASDoc. - Gordon ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lachlan Cotter Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 9:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Best practices for displaying large texts Hi Pablo, I'm not sure this is the best answer to your question but as far as I know the Text component is the right choice for displaying multi-line, non-editable text. If you want your users to be able to edit the text, you can use a TextArea instead. I'm don't know of a way to do justified text in Flex. Sorry.
