Hey all!

This may be a stupid question and I’m probably missing something obvious, but I’ve googled around quite a bit but not found any anwser.

I’m wondering if it’s possible to control the line-height/leading of a textfield in the Flash IDE.

I know you can control it via AS with the TextFormat object, but I’d like to do it through the IDE itself.

thanks
