You can add a _children property, but you can't get it to render children.

Yea, but the question would then be can I decorate a UITextField with the capabilities of a Sprite, or is the DisplayObjectContainer intrinsic and that's not possible. If I can, I'd extend TextField/FlexTextField/UITextField if necessary to put in the _children property. Mainly trying to figure out an effective way to rotate system level text. Scale and all that works great (up to the 2880 size, then the text disappears). Tricky... and a fair amount of code so far. Just trying not to get a big bloated piece of code to do a bitmap representation of the text field to just handle rotation. :) On Aug 30, 2007, at 4:26 PM, Alex Harui wrote: Not possible.
