What is the content of this container? If it is non-interactive, take a bitmap of it and insert that instead.
If you are trying to get text to flow around it, Flex text widgets do not support that ,but TLF supposedly does.by setting up a set of TLF containers for the ContainerController to work with. Also, you can insert a dummy bitmap in the TextFlow and float a Flex container over that area. On 12/4/12 9:10 AM, "handitan" <handi....@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Alex! Thanks for the reply!
