From: John-ny on 26 Jan 2006 07:58 Hi Flash'ers I am having some problems with the alignment of dynamic text in a textbox. For example, i have a textbox of 200 x 200 and i got some dynamic text loaded inside it through XML. Problem is that i want the text to align at the bottom instead of the top. Kinda like a valign=bottom if you make a table in HTML, but i want this to be done inside the textbox. Is this possible ? Thank you in advance!
From: Michael D Cahill on 26 Jan 2006 08:26 Are you using the component "Text Area" to load the XML into?

From: John-ny on 26 Jan 2006 09:42 Hi Michael, No i am just using a simple drag of the text tool and giving it a 200 x 200 dimension. What i didn't mention before is that i have rotated the text box with -90 so the text is vertical. I need this effect , but also want to align the text at the bottom
From: Michael D Cahill on 26 Jan 2006 11:32 I'm trying to figure out the solution to your problem now, but could you tell me how you managed to bind xml data to a text field... I've been using the component "text area" to do that and i'd love to know how to do it with a regular text field. I'm assuming you've set the text to "dynamic" instead of "static" but could you give me some details? Thanks a bunch.

Click on the button you want to change the movie clip frame with. Type in this actionscript while it is selected: on (release) { this.INSTANCENAME.gotoAndPlay(3); } where it says "INSTANCENAME" put the movie clips instance name. if you didnt give it an instance name, give it one like "photogallery". where it says (3) replace the number with what frame in the movie clip you want that button to make it go. That should work, i just did gave it a dry run and it worked fine for me. Let me know if you have any problems with it. -Mike.
