[flexcoders] Re: How to get ellipsis on truncateToFit for htmlText

From Label.as:

// Plain text gets truncated with a 
// HTML text simply gets clipped, because it is difficult
// to skip over the markup and truncate only the non-markup.

 If you have a label such as:

 mx:Label truncateToFit=true text={_myText}/

 It will append an ellipsis when/if it truncates the text.

 However, if you have the following label:

 mx:Label truncateToFit=true htmlText={_myText}/

 The ellipsis is gone.

 Anyone know how to get it to show up in both instances?

 Thanks!
