ok why does AS3 input text classes suck compared to AS2?
my problem is i have an input text box that needs to get focus, that works:hitman:
but i also want to change to the texts font and align it to center
looking through other threads is saw
answer.setStyle(“fontFamily”, “Arial”);
answer.textField.textAlign = “center”;
however the setStyle is an AS2 class of textArea and textField.textAlign doesn’t do squat…
any know how to mess with properties of the textField besides the the given AS3 classes…
i have looked through this page and all its related topics and its of no help…

EDIT
if some one could show me a way to set the focus to an input textFeild and not use the input textArea component that would also help fix my problem.
