Change value from flex in a TextField exported from Flash through a SWC

Question

I created a MovieClip symbol in flash containing a dynamic TextField and a background. I exported it in a SWC(using this method) and I'm trying to use it from flex. When I try to change the default value of the text field the new value is not displayed(indeed the default value I put in flash is cleared on screen, but in the debugger it shows that the new value is set in the text field)

Answer 1

If the debugger indicates that the value is being set correctly, then perhaps the problem is that the textfield is unable to display it because of a missing font?

Check that you have correctly embedded the font in your SWC (check the Adobe docs here for more info on embedding fonts).

Hope this helps...
