this.createTextField("my_txt", 99, 10, 40, 100, 22);
my_txt.autoSize = true;
my_txt.border = true;
my_txt.selectable = false;
my_txt.text = "Sample text goes here.";

scaleUp_btn.onRelease = function() {
    my_txt._xscale = 2;
    my_txt._yscale = 2;
}
scaleDown_btn.onRelease = function() {
    my_txt._xscale /= 2;
    my_txt._yscale /= 2;
}
