I need to place project-titles in a multiline textfield, wherof the
width will be fixed, but sometimes this box might be of less height
because of more space used by other displaying project elements.
Is there a class that can dynamically regulate the font it's size to fit

Hi,
If you want Bold text, you have to embed the font in bold too - if
you are using a font symbol in the library, you will have to create
another in bold, etc.
Same with Italic.

Sounds like a bad design decision to make titles of the same category
various sizes. But I think you can just set the .width property, then set
the .scaleY equal to the .scaleX or visa versa depending on which dimension
is more important.

Karim,
Try adding the following line of code to your MOUSE_MOVE event listener
function:
stage.addChildAt(customCursor, stage.numChildren);
Of course, you must substitute your custom cursor's instance name for
'customCursor'.

Some other way... but will look into CursorManager

Is there an important distinction between scaling a TextField object and
changing the font size? Perhaps you are storing the formatting or there are

On Wed,
My movie is working, I just don't understand why exactly.
At gotoandlearn.com, Lee Brimelow makes the case of using a container .swf
to load content due to document classes and the classes it references to be

No problem.
A binary search is an order log(N) method for finding something in an
ordered list of elements, as compared to linear search, which is order N.
(N is the number of elements, in this case, font sizes you are willing to
use.)
You have a sequence of font sizes. For each size, it either
You have to use the clipRect parameter and pass a Rectangle specifying what

The distinction is that wordwrapping should be optimal, as you know when
you increase / decrease a fontsize, the wordwrapping changes.

Perfect - thank you !
it seems a little odd that the ComboBox adds the List to the stage and
not one of its own children. Maybe memory/resource managment. h.

You're right, it's a bit tricky or at least, it doesn't work in the most
intuitive way.
To get what you want, you have to use both a Matrix and a Rectangle.
Leave the rectangle x and y in 0 and set the width and height to match the
size of the cropped image. Then use the matrix.translate() with
