staticText and isStretchWithOverflow

2002-10-09 09:51

Hi,

 

Could the isStretchWithOverflow attribute be added to staticText? Or, even better, in my mind, would be to get rid of staticText altogether and change the definition of textField so that it can contain either a textFieldExpression or text: (textFieldExpression | text)? Is there any reason this couldn't be done? It seems this would be clearer...?

Hi,

 

Well, why don't you just use textField instead

of staticText?

 

There is no reason for changing the definition

of text fields, because you can create a "static"

text field like this:

 

<textFieldExpression>"My static text"</textFieldExpression>

 

I hope this helps.
