TextFieldAsset is a subclass of the flash.text.TextField class
which represents TextField symbols that you embed in a Flex
application from a SWF file produced by Flash.
It implements the IFlexDisplayObject interface, which makes it
possible for a TextFieldAsset to be displayed in an Image control,
or to be used as a container background or a component skin.
This class is included in Flex for completeness, so that any kind
of symbol in a SWF file produced by Flash can be embedded
in a Flex application.
However, Flex applications do not typically use embedded TextFields.
Refer to more commonly-used asset classes such as BitmapAsset
for more information about how embedded assets work in Flex.
This is typically hard-coded for graphical skins
because this number is simply the number of pixels in the graphic.
For code skins, it can also be hard-coded
if you expect to be drawn at a certain size.
If your size can change based on properties, you may want
to also be an ILayoutManagerClient so a measure()
method will be called at an appropriate time,
giving you an opportunity to compute a measuredHeight.

Method Detail
move
()
method
public function move(x:Number, y:Number):void
Language Version :
ActionScript 3.0
Product Version :
Flex 3
Runtime Versions :
Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1
Moves this object to the specified x and y coordinates.
Parameters
x:Number — The new x-position for this object.
y:Number — The new y-position for this object.
setActualSize
()
method
public function setActualSize(newWidth:Number, newHeight:Number):void
Language Version :
ActionScript 3.0
Product Version :
Flex 3
Runtime Versions :
Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1
Sets the actual size of this object.
This method is mainly for use in implementing the
updateDisplayList() method, which is where
you compute this object's actual size based on
its explicit size, parent-relative (percent) size,
and measured size.
You then apply this actual size to the object
by calling setActualSize().
In other situations, you should be setting properties
such as width, height,
percentWidth, or percentHeight
rather than calling this method.
Parameters
newWidth:Number — The new width for this object.
newHeight:Number — The new height for this object.
