Custom Generator Object : Inset Text

While Generator allows you to dynamically insert text, it does not allow you to directly specify the attributes of the text.

The Insert Text object allows the user to dynamically insert text into a Flash movie and dynamically set its attributes (such as font type, size, color, etc…).

You can specify the following attributes :

• Text
• Color
• Size
• Font Type
• External Font File
• Bold
• Italic
• Alignment
• Letter Spacing
• Line Spacing
• Transparency

Note, that if you are using the object on a non-Windows platform, then you have to use an external font file to specify your font type.

You can download the object from the Macromedia Flash Generator Exchange here.
