We can take it as read, for now, that I don’t have an alternative to Flash for a project at work.
I’ve got a scrolling text field in a simple swf. All of that is working out fine, but the client has asked for a black rectangular border around the first paragraph of the text.
I can think of several bad ways to do this (break it out into two text fields, one with a border and one without), draw a rectangle around the text, or put a background image on the sprite with that black box drawn in.
What I’d rather do is exactly the way I’d do a border in HTML - with css and specifications for a border around selected divs.
Plenty of examples within easy google reach for changing the color of text, text decorations, etc. But I’m not seeing something about a border… and what I’ve tried isn’t doing anything. :mad:
So… is there a way to do this with the StyleSheet class? Or is there any way to do this that doesn’t absolutely suck?
Thanks in advance!!!
