Hi, Use <mx:TextArea text="Hello kramus0" editable="false" Width="" Height=""/> Set the Width and Height in the design mode appropriately to specify 1 or 2 lines as required. Thanks, Pratap Ramanujam

I have a text that has has a certain width and height so that it can show two lines. When I set truncateToFit to true and assign a text that is longer than to lines I would expect it is truncated at the end of the second line. <mx:Text truncateToFit="true" x="400" y="400" width="140" height="30" text="This is the first Line. This is the second Line that should be truncated."/> So what I would expect to see is something like this: This is the first Line. This is the second L... But I get the following two lines (that scroll if I go on the text): This is the first Line. This is the second Line So, any suggestions? Thanks. Markus
