Rohit,

 

Have you looked at the AS3 TextField numLines property and the TextField
getLineText(index) method?

Subject: [flexcoders] How to detect when word wrap has occurred?

 






Hi,
I am facing the following problem and am not being able to solve it.

In my chat application I have to show my message in the text area as
following:-

message:sender

If the message consists of single line everything works fine. For
a message which exceeds the width of the text area component, I want it
to be shown like this :-

<part of message....> : sender
<remaining message..>

I was thinking if I could get the width of the text after which word wrap
will occur and then check my incoming messages against that width. I was
trying to use the mx_internal namespace and then use textfield.

Or if I can detect the word wrap event and find out when the breaking is
happening? 

Please help.

Thanks,
Rohit
