ActionScript 3.0 :: Use More Than One Font, Size Or Color On One Line Of Text?

Mar 26, 2009

I'm a noob, so please forgive me if i'm asking something really stupid! I'm doing a group project and i've just got the code from someone else, so i can add my part.

I am trying to add text in actionscript 3 (in a actions frame) simple enough. but.i want to have words next to each other, that have different fonts, font sizes and colors. I've been googling and experimenting for most of the day and haven't really got anywhere.

I will post what i have and what i would like to do, and if someone can help me, i would be most grateful.

Here the code that i'm working with:

[Code]...

When i first got the code, all that was there, was the info.text = "Animal...... line, i added the rest and also tried adding other line of code to make other words be in different fonts, but it didn't work.

So heres what i'm trying to do; I would like to have the headings, example; Animal name, Animal Type.. in one font, and the answers, example; Kangaroo, Mammal in another font.As it is at the moment, it look crap, because its all in the same font, color and size.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Various Font Sizes And Line Spacing In Dynamic Text Box?

Mar 2, 2012

This component requires that you use Dynamic text, the Multiline behavior, and embed all fonts.  There are 5 lines of copy on the banner. I need to make two of the lines of copy a larger font and also adjust line spacing on two of the lines.  I can accomplish this using Static Text but cannot seem to get it to work in Dynamic Text.  If I change the font size on selected text it changes ALL of the font sizes for everything within that text box.

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Changing Font Size Of Dynamic Text Box?

May 19, 2010

have created a scrolling text area in flash CS3 using a dynamic text box with text inside controlled by a couple of buttons using the .scroll property to add to the scroll value on each click of a button.i am wanting to add two new buttons to decrease and increase the font size of the text within the dynamic text area, which i thought should be fairly easy. i found a .size property which could be applied to text, but i do not think i am using it in the right way. here's what i have tried to do (where 'myText' is the instance name of my dynamic text area):

on (release) {
var myFormat = myText.getTextFormat();
myFormat.size += 10;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Fit Text To Area - Font Size Increase/decrease ?

May 23, 2011

I need to implement a functionality where a user adds some text into a text field. Next if a user clicks on a button, then the font size increase/decrease so as to accomodate entire text in the available area. That means if a user has added just hello world in 12 px font and text field size is say 400*200 and user clicks on the button, the font size increases such that the text is occupied in the complete text field. Similarly if lot of content is added at a font size of 16 or so then clicking on the button reduces the font size to make it fit into the available text field area.
