Hi all,
I need some help with regard to conversion of htmlText ( which contains all the formatting info ) to an equivalent TextFormat object… so that I can transfer the htmlText info ( with formatting ) to a TextFormat object and then apply them to any textfield…
You may wonder why this approach when it can be done directly using the htmlText? Cos I am trying to manipulate the text field by resizing it ( with a user-controlled handle )…It works fine when I use normal text, but when I use the html=true, the resize seems to go haywire… ( if any one has tried this earlier… I would like to hear about getting around this )
I need to apply the formatting at the same time make it resizable ( by user ) as expected… which could be done if the html formatting info can be applied as a TextFormat object to the text field… rather than set the htmlText=“someFormattedText”.
In short, I am looking for a parser that would read the htmlText info and convert it to TextFormat object(s).
Working on AS2 - Flash 8.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Ram
