The following example creates a text field, and assigns a string of text to the field. A trace
statement is used to display the text height and width in the Output panel. The
trace()
method is used to write the text height and width in the log file. The
autoSize
property is
then used to resize the text field, and the new height and width will also be displayed in the
Output panel.The
autoSize
property is then used to resize the text field, and the new height
and width also write to the log file.
this.createTextField("my_txt", 99, 10, 10, 100, 300);
my_txt.text = "Sample text";
trace("textHeight: "+my_txt.tex", textWidth: "+my_txt.textWidth);
trace("_height: "+my_txt.", _width: "+my_txt."\n");
my_txt.autoSize = true;
trace("after my_txt.autoSize = true;");
trace("_height: "+my_txt.", _width: "+my_txt._width);
Which outputs the following information:
textHeight: 15, textWidth: 56
_height: 300, _width: 100
after my_txt.autoSize = true;
_height: 19, _width: 60
