[flexcoders] Re: How to use setTextFormat?(Text Editor)

The TextFormat needs to be in a MovieClip like a Canvas component.
 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<mx:Application
    verticalGap="0"
    backgroundColor="#7D8FA8"
    xmlns:mx= "http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml" xmlns="*"
    pageTitle="Dingen"
    width="690" height="484">
    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
        public function start()
        {
            var x_num = my_mc.mouseX;
            var y_num = my_mc.mouseY;
            var depth_num = my_mc.getNextHighestDepth();
            var name_str = "myOriginalInstanceName" +
depth_num;
          
            my_mc.createTextField(name_str, depth_num,
x_num, y_num, 10, 20);
            var txt = my_mc[name_str];
            txt.autoSize = "left";
            txt.text = "great1!!";
           
            var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
            my_fmt.color = 0xFF0000;
            my_fmt.underline = true;
            txt.setTextFormat(0,2,my_fmt);
           
        };
    ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:Canvas width="300" height="200" id="my_mc"
        mouseDown="start()" backgroundColor="#3333FF"></mx:Canvas>
</mx:Application>

I'd like build a Text Editor but the TextArea don't accept setTextFormat method.
I try to create a TextField end bind the htmlText property to TextArea.htmlText and apply the TextFormat in the TextField component.
But this simple example returns: undefined
var my_txt:TextField = new TextField();
my_txt.text = "teste"; 
alert("" + my_txt.text);
 
Thanks,
Bruno Martins.
Sorry about my english.
 
This example works in flash:
 
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.bold = true;
my_fmt.font = "Arial";
my_fmt.color = 0xFF9900;

var my_fmt2:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt2.bold = false;
my_fmt2.font = "Arial";
my_fmt2.color = 0xFF0000;

this.createTextField("my_txt", 10999, 0, 0, 400, 300);
my_txt.wordWrap = true;
my_txt.multiline = true;
my_txt.border = true;
my_txt.type = "input";
my_txt.setNewTextFormat(my_fmt);
my_txt.text = "Oranges are a good source of vitamin C";
my_txt.html = true;
trace("" + my_txt.htmlText)

my_txt.setTextFormat(0,7,my_fmt2);

trace("" + my_txt.htmlText)
