Constructor for the FStyleFormat object

FStyleFormat, constructor

Availability

Flash Player 6.

Usage

`formStyleFormat = new FStyleFormat();`

Parameters

None.

Returns

An instance of the FStyleFormat object.

Description

Method; creates a new FStyleFormat object. You create new FStyleFormat objects to define text and color properties for custom style formats used with custom components or with the Flash UI components. All Flash UI components are assigned by default to `globalStyleFormat`, which is an instance of the FStyleFormat object. You do not need to create a new instance of the FStyleFormat object to change properties in the global style format, because it already exists. You can also use `setStyleProperty` to change properties for specific component instances without using a constructor.

For more information, see the `setStyleProperty` method available to each component—`FCheckBox.setStyleProperty`, `FComboBox.setStyleProperty`, and so on. See also the Customizing component colors and text of the Using Components chapter of Using Flash.

Example

The following example creates the new style format `formStyleFormat`.

    formStyleFormat = new FStyleFormat();
