Hi Alex,
Thanks for the reply. I tried your suggestion, but it doesn't seem to
be working. Am I doing it correctly? Code is:
...
...
public class Text extends mx.controls.Text
{
public function text(){
super();
}
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
textField.width += 10;
}
}
I've tried adding integers from 2 to 20, but still does not seem to
have any effect.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Thanks!
Renz
