Text Highlight Color

[rickface]

Hi yall,

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the text highlight color for a text box?

I have white text on a black background that is selectable...the only problem is it highlights the selection in black so it isnt visible. Any workarounds for this?

thanks in advance.

no not really. the best you could do is to set the textFields backgroundColor with as.

TextField.backgroundColor = 0x000000;

you'll still see the text when you select but you won't see the selection itself.

Over sight by macromedia I guess :(

Its not likely people will be copy pasting my text anyway, but it would seem that the highlight color should be automatically adjusted to be the invert of the background color :? Macromedia Flash MY maybe :)

Thanks for the reply.
