Hello. I’m new to Flash and am working on my first project. Glad to have found this forum.

I’ve created a text box and set it to Static Text. I’ve got a few lines of copy. I’ve set the line spacing to 4pt. But between certain other lines I’ve set the spacing to 10pt. This works fine on my stage. But when I preview the file it all reverts to just the 4pt. Is it not possible to have multiple line spacing values within one text box? A return creates too much space and there doesn’t appear to be a soft return option. Is my only option to create multiple text boxes? Yikes!

Thanks very much!
