Scaleform - linebreak

[HadHa]

Not wanting to use canvas, I am looking for a way to get linebreaks created when the lines reach a certain length.

Basically I was going to use something like this.

class My_Text extends GFxMoviePlayer;

var GFxObject myTextField;

myTextField.SetString("text", "This is the very best line of text i ever saw -somewhere in here i want linebreaks!");

Basically I want the text to show up something like this:

This is the very best
line of text i ever saw
-somewhere in here i
want linebreaks!

I am aware that I can use \n to force a linebreak, and that is what I want - in a function.
But I need a way to check for when the line is X amount long.

\n is a new line character in Action Script. But If you want the string to be automatically formatted just use a TextField or TextArea with a size that suits you. And remember to set a TextField in your movie to multiline.

Thanks for the tip. I will look for the multiline option.
