[Flashcoders] Textformat size ignores anything over 96
Anyone know how to format text to above 96px high using the texformat object - it seems to just ignore them.

Re: [Flashcoders] Textformat size ignores anything over 96
You can´t. I had to develop an application that needed text sizes bigger
than that, and i had to create a special text field in where if the size
was bigger than 96px (in fact the limit is on the line of the 80px, that´s
why i use 81 in the function), i scaled up (by for example 200%) the text
field and place the text scaled down (by 50% in this case).
The function i use to find the scale is:
private function calcFSize(pSize:Number, pDiv:Number):Number {
pDiv = pDiv || 1;
if ((pSize / pDiv) 81) return pDiv;
return calcFSize(pSize, ++pDiv);
}
and you use it like:
var fontSize = 384;
var perc = calcFSize(fontSize); //fontSize is the size in pixels of the
font.
textformat.size = fontSize/perc;
textfield._xscale = textfield._yscale = perc * 100;

RE: [Flashcoders] Textformat size ignores anything over 96
Is this documented anywhere? Is Adobe aware? What a stupid limitation. Thanks
for sharing the code.

Re: [Flashcoders] Textformat size ignores anything over 96
As far as i know, no, is not documented. Is adobe aware? It should,
because i reported that. But i also reported some other problems a long
time ago (when flash 8 saw the light) and they still exist on flash 9, so
better go with the code i provided :).
