I’d like to restrict the amount a user can type into a textbox based on the width of an existing textbox on the stage. I played around with the max chars but when you type something like a ‘W’ it is considerably wider than something like a ‘i’ (current font is 19px vs 4px wide). I was playing around with .textWidth, but wasn’t sure how to use that value to restrict the textbox.
any help would be and is appreciated.
thx
