I am trying to determine the height of a Spark label that becomes multiline at runtime (due to width
property being set), to account for text overflow.
(For a spark label named Title) I have tried:
Title.measureText(Title.text).height
- this seems to return only the height of one line. (Due to differing screen-sizes and font rendering, I don't know in advance how many lines the text would overflow to...)
Title.height
- this seems to return the height of the label size (before being re-adjusted at runtime for multiline text flow)
Both properties above return an unchanging value even when different text lengths/multiple lines long are filled in .text
Is there really no way to determine the exact height of an overflow Spark label?
I am admittedly not that familiar with the Flex API but after scouring the manual for quite some time, I am still unable to place this title label with the proper spacing. Any help would be appreciated.
I think resize
event of Spark label will be usefull.
