I am creating a crossword where the words and clues are read in from an xml file. I need to be able to display the clues in a small area hence these will need to scroll. I also need to highlight a particular clue if the word on the crossword is clicked. Problem is that some clues will be on more than one line so I am not sure how best to approach this and would appreciate some advice. Also I need to include a function to toggle the text between small and large. Btw I am programming this in Flash 8 with AS2.
My alternative solutions are as follows: 1.Attach a separate movie clip for each clue - not sure how I would position these vertically and the effect of toggling the text size 2.Put all the clues in one dynamic text field - not sure how I would select a particular clue. With this solution would I be best to use a mask and therefore have all the clues effectively displayed in the dynamic text field at once. Any advice on how best to deal with this would be really appreciated.
