Styling Dynamic Text

How come I can’t bold, italisize, or resize dynamic text? You can see the styles appear when making the movie, but when testing it, it is just plain text.

When u embed text, flash doesnt automatically embed all styles. So ull have to embed beld and italics separated.

Man, this is wacked. I can’t even use two different align types! For example, one line is centered and the next is left aligned.

to do that, you have to make it a different paragraph by hitting enter. its the way microsoft works.

I know how to do that in the .fla, but it still won’t make a difference in the final .swf

ah, your problem lies in the fact that you didn’t render it as html

i trust you know how to do that

no, i don’t

thats a suprise for me.

go into the properties window, and click the button that says render text as html (it looks like <>)

It worked! Good tip.

thanks
