    Dynamic resizing of textboxes

    I want to create a dynamic textbox that will resize itself to accomodate different length string variables. Is there any way to do this. I am trying to dynamically place several textboxes one beneath the other and use the MC's height to calc the position of the next below. Right now I am using a dummy field and the maxscroll property but it is very cumbersome.

    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

    Hi,

    are you using F5 or F6? With F5, it was a pain - the new version brought autoSize for relief

    Flash 5 unfortunately. It looks like I'm out of luck.

    Thanks
