hello

i am using your component to create user-defined animations, where they can set the text themselves. however, the text generated aligned to the left.

is it possible to have it centre the text?

Hello Lee,

You can't really get the width of the text as it turns into bitmap data on during effects. Also, there are other elements in that movieclip besides the text, so using the width of the container might not help also. I think the best thing you can do is get the length of the string and somehow calculate the dimension manually.

Regards,
Andrei
