Hi,
I’ve been trying to figure out how to set the alpha of a TextField in AS3. I am able to get the textfield to display, and have it formatted using the TextFormat class, but setting the alpha value anything below 1.0 does not make any difference. I have tried nesting the textfield within a sprite holder and changing the alpha of the sprite but it doesn’t work.
I know that I need to be able to embed the font for dynamic textfield alphas to work (at least that was the case in AS2), but can anyone tell me how to get that working in AS3? What I need is to have the textfield display Verdana, non anti-aliased (i.e. device font).
