Text Box Problem

I would like to create text fields of a specific size without distorting the text inside. The problem is that everytime I create a text field, and then modify its width and height to an exact pixel size, the text is transformed along with the resize. I want the text size to stay the same. Any suggestions for a proper order to create and resize a text field so this doesn’t happen?

Thanks.

Click twice on the text field to edit it, and drag the little square that will appear at the bottom right corner of the text field. :slight_smile:

Or you can set it by using ActionScript through its [font=courier new]_width[/font] and [font=courier new]_height[/font] properties.
