A reference to a TextField.StyleSheet object.
Description
Constructor; creates a TextField.StyleSheet object.
Example
The following example loads in a style sheet and outputs the styles that load into the document.
Add the following ActionScript to your AS or FLA file:
var my_styleSheet:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
my_styleSheet.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
trace("Styles loaded:");
var styles_array:Array = my_styleSheet.getStyleNames();
trace(styles_array.join(newline));
} else {
trace("Error loading CSS");
}
};
my_styleSheet.load("styles.css");
