Tweening Dynamic Text

[phej]

I am trying to figure out how to tween a dynamic text field. My developer has written a part of the website I'm working on to output a text file and they want me to import the text file (which I can do) and have it scroll (bottom to top) through the contents (names, etc).

I know you can't tween the field, you have to put it in an MC (which I've named 'winners') and tween the MC, but I can't get it to work.

Here's the code I'm using:

myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {

myHeadline_txt.htmlText = this.headline;
myText_txt.htmlText = this.content;
};

myData.load("/flash/text.txt");

stop();

Did you embed the font used?

The font I'm using for the dynamic text field is Arial, so no. Although I will try that and remember that for times when I'm using a non-staandard font.

When manipulating text, the font needs to be embedded, whether you like it or not!
