Rotated text for menu items

(2008-03-31 - views: 3371)
Q: Is there a possibility to have the text in the menu items rotated and repositioned to fit ?
A: Yes, there is. You need to parse each menu item and get the reference to their text fields. One you do that, you can do whatever you need with that text field (rotation, reposition). The height of the menu items can be set from the xml file, using the <itemHeight> node, in the <styles> node.

Generaly parameters and their names are the same for the both version of Action Script (As2, As3). Major differences appear only on the events.

Hello

Unfortunately, we cannot update ATM_TextRotation sample for AS3 beacause the AS3 version of the menu does not support text field referencing for component integrity reasons. Also there is not possible to rotate the submenus.
