In other words, if you're using a device font, Flash will properly
calculate the height if the font is _sans, _serif, or _typewriter
(which is exactly what you suggested); but not if you use another
font.
This little bit of code properly calculates the height of a text
field in Flash - snagged from one of the components in the V2
framework (DataGrid?)
public function getTextHeight(txtField:TextField):Number {
var oldText = txtField.text;
txtField.text = "^g_p";
var tH = txtField.textHeight + 4;
txtField.text = oldText;
return tH;
}
cheers,
