Paragraph in string

[pnekdo]

I have a condition that changes a paragraf of a string object. It works in normal (.exe) mode, but not in flash? Are there some specific limitations for a string object in flash?

This sounds like a bug. Can I have you prepare and upload an .mfa file showing this problem?

Maybe this is related to text clipping? From MMF's Help > Dist > SWF > SWF vs. EXE differences:

String object, display of the string. In the Windows runtime, the text of a string object can go over the vertical size of the object. In SWF applications, the text is clipped to the size of the object : you have to set the height of the String object large enough to contain all the text of the object.

Hmmm ... it seams I can't reproduce the problem in a new file, and the original file is an already made game that I can't send you ... But one thing is for shure, the transparency of a string, does not work in flash. I will try to figure out something my self about the problem with the paragraf changing - I am using it only to tell the level.

Thanks

True transparency of strings is not supported in Flash, this is a limitation of Flash iteself. I should add it to the difference file.
