Change combobox font size in Flash Actionscript
Ever needed to change the font size of a standard flash combobox component?
You will need to give it an instance name e.g. “myCombobox” and then add the following code:
myCombobox.setStyle("fontSize", 10);

It is not working for me. Combobox doesn’t change.
Have you got an instance name for your textfield?
Is the code inserted at the same scope?
Wow, that was a quick reply from you (;
Yes, scope was correct, but what did work in the end, however, was this piece of code.
————————————–
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.size = 30; myCombobox.textField.setStyle(“textFormat”, tf); myCombobox.dropdown.setRendererStyle(“textFormat”, tf);

I hope we are both talking about AS3 here (;. Nice blog, btw.
Thanks for the useful info.
There would be the other problem, my example was done in Actionscript 2 and yours is in Actionscript 3.
But at least now the answer for both versions are on one page!
Thans for the nice post.
Lovely thank you for the info. A inspirational piece of info.
Very detailed post can i translate into German for our blogs visitors? Thanks
Excellent example, and good for both the old school with AS2 (myself) and the newer version. Thanks!!
