I think I am having the same problem as this guy/gal:
http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52490
I too am dynamically filling a text box with data. For some reason, I cannot get my box to increase in size in order to show all of the text. I am not using HTML text (but I have tried that too). I have checked multiline in my properties window AND even declared my textfield multiline in actionscript. The text field is being updated, but it is only showing the first line.
Here is my code:
curr_item.desctxt.multiline = true;
curr_item.desctxt.text = curr_item.desc;
Thanks again, Kirupians…
