[Flashcoders] TextFieldAutoSize [AS3]
Hi All Is there any way to autosize the height of a textfield only? I want to manually set the width of a dynamic textbox but have the user increase the size of the text via a button. I currently have it working how i need but the textbox cuts off the bottom of the text when its bigger than the textbox.

Re: [Flashcoders] TextFieldAutoSize [AS3]
very sketchy idea: var txtHeight:Number = txtField.textHeight + 4;// (see Flash docs for further information on how text is laidout in a TextField object) txtField.height = txtHeight; hth, Cedric Hi All Is there any way to autosize the height of a textfield only?

You can also do it like this:
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
with(tf){
autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
wordWrap = true; // width wordWrap set to true it autosizes
// the height to fit the text
w = 300;
text = Blahblahblah yackitty schmackity.
}

Re: [Flashcoders] TextFieldAutoSize [AS3]
Indeed, if you set the width of a TextField and autoSize to LEFT, it will
automatically resize only the height.
