What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial. Anyone knows how to make this work?
Did you embed the font for the dynamic text?
Can you post the code here that you are currently using?
I'm trying to do it like this:

Sorry, I can't view things that aren't posted here.
ok, then I'll try to explain.
theres one input text field named "a"
theres on dinamic text field named "b"
and a button which has this code: on(press){ b=a; }
but when i write something in the input and press the button, the dinamic text changes to look the same as the input text with the same format, even when the dinamic text field has a different format.
Did you embed the font for the dynamic text?
What version of Flash and Flash Player are you using?
Can you recreate the problem and post the fla here?
No, I didn't embed. Could you explain me how to do that.
Im using FlashMX8 with Flash Player10
I don't have Flash 8, but try this...
Select the dynamic text field and click the Embed button in the Property inspector. The Character Embedding dialog box opens, in which you can specify a range of characters (or individual characters) to embed.
Also try using the text in the assignment, not just the instance names.
Code:on (press){
b.text = a.text
}
Nothing happens when I click the button if I add the .text and it stays the same if I embed the font
Are 'a' and 'b' the instance names of the textfields or are they variables?
variables
that fixed it!! THANK YOU!!!
the final code:
on(press){
b.text=a.text
}
