mx:TextArea editable=false width=140 height=61

Can be used in your case.

Hi,
 
Use mx:TextArea text=Hello kramus0 editable=false
Width= Height=/
 
Set the Width and Height in the design mode appropriately to
specify 1 or 2 lines 
as required.
 
Thanks,
Pratap Ramanujam

I'm not sure whether this is a bug or not but
truncateToFit doesn't
seems to work for me.

I have a text that has has a certain width and height so
that it can
show two lines. When I set truncateToFit to true and
assign a text
that is longer than to lines I would expect it is
truncated at the end
of the second line. 

mx:Text truncateToFit=true x=400 y=400
width=140 height=30
text=This is the first Line. This is the second Line
that should be
truncated./

So what I would expect to see is something like this:

This is the first Line. 
This is the second L... 

But I get the following two lines (that scroll if I go
on the text):

This is the first Line. 
This is the second Line

So, any suggestions? Thanks.

Markus

truncateToFit has no effect on Text.
If you want that behavior, you either need to implement it yourself,
or find someone that already has.
