[FlexTransformManager and Text components problem]

You'll need to embed fonts in your text fields to be able to rotate them in flash. From a related thread:

 

Hi,

I have used the folllowing :

 

 

<mx:Style>

@font-face {

src:url("Assets/fonts/myriad-web-pro.ttf");

fontFamily: myFontFamily;

advancedAntiAliasing: true;

unicodeRange:

U+0041-U+005A,

U+0061-U+007A,

U+0030-U+0039,

U+002E-U+002E;

}

.myFontFamily

{

fontSize: 25;

}

</mx:Style>

 

 

var flxTransformManagerObj:FlexTransformManager = new FlexTransformManager();

flxTransformManagerObj.width = 300;

flxTransformManagerObj.height = 300;

flxTransformManagerObj.allowDelete = true;

flxTransformManagerObj.constrainScale = true;

flxTransformManagerObj.lockRotation = false;

this.addChild(flxTransformManagerObj);

 

var textAreaObj:TextArea = new TextArea();

textAreaObj.width = 300;

textAreaObj.height = 300;

textAreaObj.styleName = "myPlainStyle";

textAreaObj.text = "This is sample text in the text area";

 

flxTransformManagerObj.addChild(textAreaObj);

 

But still when i tried rotation with text the text disappears.... Kindly help ....

[FlexTransformManager and Text components problem]

Hi,

 

I have a some issue while working with text area and FlexTransformManager. I am creating a textarea dynamically but while rotating it the text is getting disappeared ....

 

what exactly am i missing out?

 

Code is :

 

import com.greensock.transform.FlexTransformManager;

import fl.core.UIComponent;

import mx.controls.TextArea;

 

 

var flxTransformManagerObj:FlexTransformManager = new FlexTransformManager();

flxTransformManagerObj.width = 300;

flxTransformManagerObj.height = 300;

flxTransformManagerObj.allowDelete = true;

flxTransformManagerObj.constrainScale = true;

flxTransformManagerObj.lockRotation = false;

this.addChild(flxTransformManagerObj);

 

var textAreaObj:TextArea = new TextArea();

textAreaObj.width = 300;

textAreaObj.height = 300;

textAreaObj.text = "This is sample text in the text area";

flxTransformManagerObj.addChild(textAreaObj);

 

I am using FLEX 4.6
