Flash Player 6.
Usage
my_txt._x:Number
Description
Property; an integer that sets the x coordinate of a text field relative to the local coordinates of the
parent movie clip. If a text field is on the main Timeline, then its coordinate system refers to the
upper left corner of the Stage as (0, 0). If the text field is inside a movie clip that has
transformations, the text field is in the local coordinate system of the enclosing movie clip. Thus,
for a movie clip rotated 90 º counterclockwise, the enclosed text field inherits a coordinate system
that is rotated 90 º counterclockwise. The text field's coordinates refer to the registration point
position.
Example
The following example creates a text field wherever you click the mouse. When it creates a text
field, that field displays the current x and y coordinates of the text field.
this.createTextField("coords_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 60, 22);
coords_txt.autoSize = true;
coords_txt.selectable = false;
, the text field does not have word wrap.
