RE: [Flashcoders] Italic text being chopped

2006-11-14 Thread Trevor Burton
What font are you using? I've had a similar issue with ascenders in the past
rather than descenders but turned out to be a dodgy font.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Italic text being chopped

My ps, qs, gs, ys and js are having their tails chopped off when made italic
in a static text field. I've played about with the line spacing and
indenting but to no avail.

I thought it would be a simple fix but nothing I'm doing is working. Any
ideas?

Thanks

Adrian

Cheers T.

It's verdana, 11, bitmap text (no anti-alias).

I'm stuck with this due to brand guidelines.

Any other ideas?

If it's Verdana then I doubt it's the font - my problem was with Channel 4's
custom font (you'd think they'd have spent some money getting someone to
create it correctly).

If it's only descenders getting cropped then have you tried outlining your
text boxes to see if there's anything going on there? - how are you setting
the style on the textfield - TextFormat or Styles?

This is just a static text field. I changed it to dynamic and had a play
about with it's text format but no joy just yet.

Probably irrelevant - the only time I've had that happen was just
something really silly - the text field was too short for the font
size. :-)
