public getNewTextFormat() : TextFormat
Returns a TextFormat object containing a copy of the text field's text format object. The text format object is the format that newly inserted text, such as text inserted with the replaceSel() method or text entered by a user, receives. When getNewTextFormat() is invoked, the TextFormat object returned has all of its properties defined. No property is null.
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 6
TextFormat - A TextFormat object.
The following example displays the specified text field's (my_txt) text format object.
this.createTextField("my_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 10, 160, 120);
var my_fmt:TextFormat = my_txt.getNewTextFormat();
trace("TextFormat has the following properties:");
for (var prop in my_fmt) {
trace(prop+": "+my_fmt[prop]);
}
The MovieClip.getNextHighestDepth() method used in this example requires Flash Player 7 or later. If your SWF file includes a version 2 component, use the version 2 components' DepthManager class instead of the MovieClip.getNextHighestDepth() method.
