How do you get a Star Wars style slant to text in Flash MX?

[size=1]Far[/size]  
[size=2]Medium[/size]  
[size=3]Closer[/size]  
[size=4]Closest[/size]  
[size=5]Big to the max[/size]

you cant do it with text - text. Youd have to break it apart into shapes and then use the Free Transform Tool (Q) to taper it.

Do you mean the font of the text Star Wars, or the moving “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away” bit?

Not the font. The way it is arranged. Observe this 3D model.

```auto

       /\
      / \
     / \
    / \
   / \
  / \
 / \
/ ______________ \
\ ______________ /
 

```

Man, it does not appear like the way i draw it. :sigh: Well, you get the point if you know the intro to Star Wars. :geek:

Edit: Fixed it now. You know what the problem with this forum is? The font in the posting area is different from the font that is outputed in code fields.
