[flexcoders] Problem with Label showing ... when the size exceeds the actual given size

[srikanth reddy]

Hi,

The MXML label when i set truncateToFit="true" it
displays ... to fit to the actual size only when i set
the width in .px if i use percentage width it never
truncates the label field.

ex: it works when

<mx:Label x="40" y="19" text="{data.Family}" 
                width="175" fontStyle="italic"
                truncateToFit="true"/>

and it doen't work when 

<mx:Label x="40" y="19" text="{data.Family}" 
                width="50%" fontStyle="italic"
                truncateToFit="true"/>

can some body please tell me an work around or the
correct way do things that it works id i give a %width

Thanks,
Srikanth
