Hi all people of the good will

```auto

var label:TextField ;
var format:TextFormat;

label.defaultTextFormat = format;

```

label.defaultTextFormat = format , is the standard way to implement format

If I do’t want to create

```auto
var format:TextFormat; 

```

How can I implement TextFormat then ? for example leftMargin

Thanks
