If the Label control size is smaller than its text, the text of the Label control is truncated using a localizable string, such as "...".
However if you set the text with htmlText, then you do not get the '...' How can I set the text of the Label field with htmlText and still get the '...' if my text is too long? ex: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"> <mx:Label x="37" y="35" text="label field" width="193" id="myLabel"/> <mx:Button x="37" y="91" label="change Label Text" click="myLabel.text = myTextInput.text"/> <mx:Button x="184" y="91" label="change Label with HtmlText" click="myLabel.htmlText = myTextInput.text"/> <mx:TextInput id="myTextInput" text="This is a really long label text it should truncate in periods" x="37" y="61"/> </mx:Application>
