different swf's. I don't understand why I can't call the function, though. There are a number of public static vars in the downloaded swf, and I can see them in the debugger. I can't see the public static function, though, and the assets are not being initialized. Cordially, Kerry Thompson

[Flashcoders] Downloading a .swc library

2010-09-23 Thread Kerry Thompson
the embedding part to a .swc, download it, register the fonts, and use them? Would I use urlLoader? Another possibility--is it possible to export the embedded fonts to ActionScript, with code? I've done that plenty of times with embedded assets, but not assets generated at runtime. Cordially, Kerry

could export them to AS and have it working pretty quickly. The client wants an all-code Flex app, though. How do I access the fonts when they're not exported to AS? Make the private static vars public? If so, how would I use the font? textFormat.font = className.fontName; ? Cordially, Kerry
