Hi, I am trying to create a custom Button class that can have its label text rotated (but not the button itself). I know that this can be achieved by embedding fonts, but ideally I don't want to have to do this.
In my research I came across this site, which contains a method for rotating labels without embedding fonts: http://www.gonnen.com/2007/11/rotating-text-in-actionscript-3-without.html It's fairly simple, in the label's updateDisplayList(), a rotated Bitmap of the label is drawn. I looked into following the same principle for the button text but this is much less straightforward (especially as the label is actually a UITextField). I've tried adding one of the custom labels as a new child of the button but that does not appear to do anything... Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Iain
