    Default Lines in Dynamic Text

    Hello,

    I have some strings which i have in an array, i'm displaying the strings one at a time in a dynamic text box. I couldn't seem to work out if it was possible to work out how many lines of text there are when it is being displayed in the dynamic text box. Is it possible to work this out??

    Thanks to anyone who can help,

    Guy

    you can use the maxscroll property of textfields.

    you can use

    maxTextLines = textField.maxscroll;

    if you really think about it.... i wouldn't have to!
