One workaround is to set the name of the templateGroup before creating a new group. This allows you to refer to the group by a custom name after it is created, since last may not always be last. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX Design On Apr 13, 2013, at 1:15 PM

Multiple Alignments In One Line?

Anybody know if it's possible to use two different text align settings on the same line using the (newish) styledText property? I want to have the first few words of a line aligned left in the field, and the last few words aligned right. Thanks Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile

With graphics, foreColor = textColor. But one way you can colorize the stroke of a graphic separately from its textColor is to use a strokeGradient. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX/UI Design On 3/27/13 1:49 PM, Roger Guay i...@mac.com wrote: Hi Peter, I never

If you have nested groups, the layerMode needs to be set to scrolling for the topmost (outermost) group, and the group that actually scrolls cannot be nested inside another group. With this set up, you should get good performance. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX/UI
