You have to do this "manually," through lingo. E.g., if you put a button on the stage
that says "Italics," this would be the button's script:
on mouseUp me
locFocusMember = sprite(the keyboardFocusSprite).member
if locFocusMember.type <> #text then
alert "Before using this button, select the text."
exit
end if
locSelStart = locFocusMember.selection[1] --boundaries of current selection in the
text box, if any
locSelEnd = locFocusMember.selection[2] --boundaries of current selection in the
text box, if any
if (locSelStart = 0) or (locSelStart = locSelEnd) then
alert "Before using this button, select the text."
else
locFocusMember.char[locSelStart..locSelEnd].fontStyle = [#italic]
end if
end mouseUp
