flashx.textLayout.formats.LeadingModel - Adobe® Flex® 4 Language Reference (Flex 4)

Package	flashx.textLayout.formats
Class	public final class LeadingModel
Inheritance	LeadingModel Object

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Defines values for setting the leadingModel property of the TextLayoutFormat class, composed of valid combinations of leading basis and leading direction. Leading basis describes which baselines determine the leading (or lineHeight) of lines in a paragraph. Leading direction specifies whether the lineHeight property refers to the distance of a line's baseline from that of the line before it or the line after it.

Constant Detail

APPROXIMATE_TEXT_FIELD

Constant

public static const APPROXIMATE_TEXT_FIELD:String = "approximateTextField"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies a leading model that approximates the line spacing behavior of TextField. It is similar to ASCENT_DESCENT_UP in that lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's ascent baseline from the previous line's descent baseline. However, baseline positions approximate those determined by TextField, rather than using metrics offered by TextLine.

ASCENT_DESCENT_UP

Constant

public static const ASCENT_DESCENT_UP:String = "ascentDescentUp"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading basis is ASCENT/DESCENT and leading direction is UP. In other words, lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's ascent baseline from the previous line's descent baseline.

AUTO

Constant

public static const AUTO:String = "auto"

Language Version:

ActionScript #IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP_DOWN

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading model is chosen automatically based on the paragraph's locale property. For Japanese and Chinese, it is IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP_DOWN and for all others it is ROMAN_UP.

IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER_DOWN

Constant

public static const IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER_DOWN:String = "ideographicCenterDown"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading basis is IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER and leading direction is down. In other words, lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's ideographic center baseline from the next line's ideographic center baseline.

IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER_UP

Constant

public static const IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER_UP:String = "ideographicCenterUp"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading basis is IDEOGRAPHIC_CENTER and leading direction is UP. In other words, lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's ideographic center baseline from the previous line's ideographic center baseline.

IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP_DOWN

Constant

public static const IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP_DOWN:String = "ideographicTopDown"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading basis is IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP and leading direction is DOWN. In other words, lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's ideographic top baseline from the next line's ideographic top baseline.

IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP_UP

Constant

public static const IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP_UP:String = "ideographicTopUp"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading basis is IDEOGRAPHIC_TOP and leading direction is UP. In other words, lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's ideographic top baseline from the previous line's ideographic top baseline.

ROMAN_UP

Constant

public static const ROMAN_UP:String = "romanUp"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies that leading basis is ROMAN and leading direction is UP. In other words, lineHeight refers to the distance of a line's Roman baseline from the previous line's Roman baseline.
