Use the defaultTextFormat property instead of setTextFormat.

 Yes, that's exactly what I'm going ot have to do.  This has got to be a
 BUG.  If I trace out the format.align property after a single character
 change it goes from center to null!  Then after the user replaces all of
 the text it changes to left.

In AS3 I have to keep applying the TextFormat object to the TextField 
when it's content changes:


function createText():void {
   _nameText.setSelection(0, _nameText.text.length);
   //_nameText.caretIndex = 0;
   _nameText.setTextFormat(_nameFormat);
   addChild(_nameText);
   _nameText.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, textChange);
}


private function textChange(evt:Event):void {
   _nameText.setTextFormat(_nameFormat);
}
