Property Detail

baseline

property

baseline:Number [read-only]

Returns the text baseline measurement, in pixels.

Implementation
public function get baseline():Number

breakLongWords

property

breakLongWords:Boolean

If wordWrap is true, determines if words longer than the width of the text renderer will break in the middle or if the word will extend outside the edges until it ends.

In the following example, the text will break long words:

    textRenderer.breakLongWords = true;

The default value is false.

Implementation
public function get breakLongWords():Boolean
public function set breakLongWords(value:Boolean):void

See also

wordWrap

currentTextFormat

property

currentTextFormat:BitmapFontTextFormat [read-only]

For debugging purposes, the current feathers.text.BitmapFontTextFormat used to render the text. Updated during validation, and may be null before the first validation.

Do not modify this value. It is meant for testing and debugging only. Use the parent's starling.text.TextFormat font styles APIs instead.

Implementation
public function get currentTextFormat():BitmapFontTextFormat

disabledTextFormat

property

disabledTextFormat:BitmapFontTextFormat

Advanced font formatting used to draw the text when the component is disabled, if disabledFontStyles and starling.text.TextFormat cannot be used on the parent component because the other features of bitmap fonts are required.

In the following example, the disabled text format is changed:

    textRenderer.isEnabled = false;
    textRenderer.disabledTextFormat = new BitmapFontTextFormat( bitmapFont );

Warning: If this property is not null, any starling.text.TextFormat font styles that are passed in from the parent component may be ignored. In other words, advanced font styling with BitmapFontTextFormat will always take precedence.

The default value is null.

Implementation
public function get disabledTextFormat():BitmapFontTextFormat
public function set disabledTextFormat(value:BitmapFontTextFormat):void

See also

textFormat
selectedTextFormat

globalStyleProvider

property

public static var globalStyleProvider:IStyleProvider

The default IStyleProvider for all BitmapFontTextRenderer components.

The default value is null.

numLines

property

numLines:int [read-only]

The number of text lines in the text renderer. The text renderer may contain multiple text lines if the text contains line breaks or if the wordWrap property is enabled.

Implementation
public function get numLines():int

pixelSnapping

property

pixelSnapping:Boolean

Determines if the position of the text should be snapped to the nearest whole pixel when rendered. When snapped to a whole pixel, the text is often more readable. When not snapped, the text may become blurry due to texture smoothing.

In the following example, the text is not snapped to pixels:

    textRenderer.pixelSnapping = false;

The default value is true.

Implementation
public function get pixelSnapping():Boolean
public function set pixelSnapping(value:Boolean):void

selectedTextFormat

property

selectedTextFormat:BitmapFontTextFormat

Advanced font formatting used to draw the text when the stateContext is disabled, if selectedFontStyles and starling.text.TextFormat cannot be used on the parent component because the other features of bitmap fonts are required.

In the following example, the selected text format is changed:

    textRenderer.selectedTextFormat = new BitmapFontTextFormat( bitmapFont );

The default value is null.

Implementation
public function get selectedTextFormat():BitmapFontTextFormat
public function set selectedTextFormat(value:BitmapFontTextFormat):void

style

property

style:MeshStyle

The style that is used to render the text's mesh.

In the following example, the text renderer uses a custom style:

    textRenderer.style = new DistanceFieldStyle();

The default value is null.

Implementation
public function get style():MeshStyle
public function set style(value:MeshStyle):void

textFormat

property

textFormat:BitmapFontTextFormat

Advanced font formatting used to draw the text, if fontStyles and starling.text.TextFormat cannot be used on the parent component because the other features of bitmap fonts are required.

In the following example, the text format is changed:

    textRenderer.textFormat = new BitmapFontTextFormat( bitmapFont );

The default value is null.

Implementation
public function get textFormat():BitmapFontTextFormat
public function set textFormat(value:BitmapFontTextFormat):void

textureSmoothing

property

textureSmoothing:String

A texture smoothing value passed to each character image. If null, defaults to the value specified by the smoothing property of the BitmapFont.

In the following example, the texture smoothing is changed:

    textRenderer.textureSmoothing = TextureSmoothing.NONE;

The default value is null.

Implementation
public function get textureSmoothing():String
public function set textureSmoothing(value:String):void

See also

starling.textures.TextureSmoothing

truncateToFit

property

truncateToFit:Boolean

If word wrap is disabled, and the text is longer than the width of the label, the text may be truncated using truncationText.

This feature may be disabled to improve performance.

This feature does not currently support the truncation of text displayed on multiple lines.

In the following example, truncation is disabled:

    textRenderer.truncateToFit = false;

The default value is true.

Implementation
public function get truncateToFit():Boolean
public function set truncateToFit(value:Boolean):void

See also

truncationText

property

truncationText:String

The text to display at the end of the label if it is truncated.

In the following example, the truncation text is changed:

    textRenderer.truncationText = " [more]";

The default value is "...".

Implementation
public function get truncationText():String
public function set truncationText(value:String):void

useSeparateBatch

property

useSeparateBatch:Boolean

Determines if the characters are batched normally by Starling or if they're batched separately. Batching separately may improve performance for text that changes often, while batching normally may be better when a lot of text is displayed on screen at once.

In the following example, separate batching is disabled:

    textRenderer.useSeparateBatch = false;

The default value is true.

Implementation
public function get useSeparateBatch():Boolean
public function set useSeparateBatch(value:Boolean):void

Method Detail

getTextFormatForState

()

method

public function getTextFormatForState(state:String):BitmapFontTextFormat

Parameters

result:Point (default = null)

Returns

Point

setTextFormatForState

()

method

public function setTextFormatForState(state:String, textFormat:BitmapFontTextFormat):void

Sets the advanced BitmapFontTextFormat font formatting to be used by the text renderer when the currentState property of the stateContext matches the specified state value. For advanced use cases where starling.text.TextFormat cannot be used on the parent component because other features of bitmap fonts are required.

If an BitmapFontTextFormat is not defined for a specific state, the value of the textFormat property will be used instead.
