Set TextFormat

1

Does anybody see why this code doesn’t work? It looks identical to other code I’ve found on Kirupa.

card.createTextField("terms_txt", 1, 10, 10, 375, 40);
f = new TextFormat();
f.size = 18;
card.terms_txt.setTextFormat(f);

Nevermind, I moved the code and it works.

Can I ask where you moved the code? I can’t get it to work either.

Cheers,

Mike

I had to move it to a button.

on (release) {
		_root.getTerm();
		}{

function getTerm() {
	card.onEnterFrame = function(){
		if (card._yscale > 10) {
			decreaseTermSize();
			} else {
				j = Math.round(Math.random()* i);
_root.card.terms_txt.htmlText = terms[j];
_root.card.definitions_txt.htmlText = "";
card.terms_txt.setTextFormat(f);
		card.onEnterFrame = function() {
							increaseTermSize();
							}
	} 
	}
	}
