Flash/AS3 > Font Embed causes positioning error with Chalet Font
I'm trying to embed the Chalet font to some dynamic text fields and it is causing the vertical position of the text to jump up above the actual textfield. (see screenshot) Is Chalet a messed up font?

Curious if anyone has this problem: I save my (embedded) fonts in an external file (fonts.swf) that gets loaded at runtime. Pretty standard.

Global style selector not supported for module style inheritance?
I've got an application that loads multiple modules and according to this document, styles should be inherited (possibly only if they are in the same ApplicationDomain which they are in my case.)
