TextArea Images in AIR…
Haven’t seen them? Apparently its because they don’t exist. According to this bug report it was a known issue but not corrected before the last version of AIR was released. I spent a good amount of time wondering what I was doing wrong before a friend did a search in the bugs list for me – and voila!
So, my first question: does anyone know a work-around for this issue? The comments recommend using the HTML component, but unfortunately I need a lot of the interactivity that the TextArea offers that the HTML component doesn’t have. If anyone has an idea let me know.
If anyone of you aren’t sure where to find bugs for the Flash player, you can find them at bugs.adobe.com. I use to never check the bugs list, as most of the problems are ran into when I was just getting into flash was user error – but now it seems that I probably need to spend more time at the bugs list before wasting hours of time late at night trying to figure out why my img tags disappeared.
Anyways – if anyone has an idea – shoot me an email or a comment! I’ll be your friend!
