Actionscript 2, Attaching function to Selection?

Asked by RDdice in Macromedia Flash

Tags: Adobe, Flash CS3 ActionScript 2

I'm trying to convert this function to ActionScript 2, it's in ActionScript 1. I'm getting the error:

There is no method with the name 'setSharedFont'.

Seems that Actionscript 2 doesn't like adding a new function to selection like ActionScript 1. Any Ideas, hints?

I'm thinking it could be a prototype or something but i've never done it.Start Free Trial
