Different font size in Label in Flex?

I would like to display a set of Text like this "DISCONTINUED (02-02-2012) Crocin" in label. But i need smaller font size for Date. How can I set the value to Label so that I can display smaller size font for Date.

I only need to assign a single string to label? like this "DISCONTINUED (02-02-2012) Crocin"

Is this possible in flex?

Solution

  • its possible in FLEX by 2 ways.

    (1)

    <mx:Text width="550">
    <mx:htmlText>
        <![CDATA[
        <b><font size="26">DISCONTINUED </font><font size="18">(02-02-2012) Crocin</font>
        ]]>
    </mx:htmlText>
</mx:Text>

    Embed htmlText in Text area and change the CSS file as follows to feel like a Label. Change its selectable and editable property to false and don't forget to give height and width.

    TextArea 
{
    leading: 0;
    backgroundAlpha: 0;
    borderStyle: none;
}
