The built in HTML rendering interpreter of Koolmoves (HTML in a Box) appears to be really crappy.
Line breaks in the source code interpreted as line feeds, tables are ignored, H1 is interpreted as a microscopic font (more or less five pixel).
Is that due to a missing or a wrong cascading stylesheet, is that feature useless without hope for improvement?
if the solution is as a stylesheet: where should it be placed? where should be being named?
thank you in advance

I don't understand what you are talking about.Quote:

KoolMoves doesn't pre-process the html. It just passes whatever you enter to the flash player.
Yes CSS is the best option for formatting HTML text in Flash.
You can load external CSS or build it in ActionScript

OK, sorry, my mistake!Quote:

However the dynamic textfield is the only way I know, to get clear text, that does nor look blurry and is well readable in small fonts.
I'd love to be able to get a bit more out of it.
Has anyone got a better idea, how to proceed?
Thank you in advance.

How to do that piece of magic?
I could not find that property in the dynamic text shape properties.
My apologies for not being able to read fluently the Volapük of Adobe.
It's not in the properties in the GUI you must use Actionscript for this. This is only needed if you wish to use extended formating. The basic Flash HTML text field can handle some simple formating like <B> <u> <hr> and a few others.
Try pixel fonts to get clear text at small font size. You can find them at this site -- flashkit.com.
Yes, I discovered that it can handle typeface and font size.Quote:

Anyhow, knowing that, it is possible to have an acceptable output without too much expertise.
I would love to be able to enter an Actionscript to reference to a CSS, but I'm afraid, I am a complete rookie in AS.
If I could have been only a few lines of code, would you be so kind to give an example?
thank you in advance
Thank you Bob, that is also something I did not know.Quote:

I fetched some pixel fonts (it is sometimes not that easy to find a font with diacritics), I found 1stSortie, which is free and has all needed diacritics.
Apparently, it is not enough to import the .TTF
Koolmoves still displays it blurry at all resolutions. The help did not explain anything about it.
What did I do wrong?
Thank you in advance
