RE: [flexcoders] Re: How to rotate a Combo Box

2008-06-20 Thread Paddy Keane 
You could also set the fontWeight to 'normal' for components if u don't want to 
embed whole new font family:

i.e

ComboBox {
fontFamily: myArial;
fontSize: 20;
fontWeight: normal;
}

Do you need the src in the css when using an [Embed]? Maybe it's causing
the font to not *actually* be embedded? Just taking a stab, I haven't used
embedded fonts.

Combobox (and Button and a few others) use bold fontWeight.  You have to
embed the bold version of the font as well.  I believe it looks
something like:

 

@font-face{
src: url(assets/ARIALBD.TTF); /* copy from Windows/fonts/
folder */
fontFamily: myArial; 

fontWeight: bold;
}
