What does this mean for papervision 3d? I know a lot of the tools that team has built will soon become redundant but what of their work can they keep? Texture mapping perhaps, camera movement (I don’t think adobe’s version of 3d accounts for a camera in space)

Also, with Adobe’s tools, can you create a cube in 3d (say by rotating and aligning 6 sides) and then rotate that cube as a whole in 3d space?

My TextFormat won’t stick to my TextField

Run this SWF and click the button, the text stays pink.
Then run this and click on the text, then click the button.
The text defaults size and color. Why??????textFormatBug

var titleTF:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleTF.color = 0xFF00FF;
titleTF.size = 22;
//titleTF.font = avantBold.fontName;
var titleText:TextField = createTF(10, 10, 200, 26, true, titleTF, “This is a test”);
addChild(titleText);

function createTF(_x:Number, _y:Number, _width:Number, _height:Number, _autoSize:Boolean, _defaultTF:TextFormat, _text:String):TextField {
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
tf.x = _x;
tf.y = _y;
tf.width = _width;
tf.height = _height;
tf.autoSize = (_autoSize) ? TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT : TextFieldAutoSize.NONE;
tf.wordWrap = true;
tf.multiline = true;
tf.defaultTextFormat = _defaultTF;
tf.htmlText = _text;
//tf.setTextFormat(_defaultTF);
return tf;
}

clicker.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, swapText);

function swapText(e:*):void{
titleText.htmlText = “This is now a changed test” + String(Math.random());;
}
