Very interesting and original … can you pad the area around the object so that the text doesn’t get masked at all?

If you want to control the padding I’d suggest using a MovieClip with _alpha = 0.

Thanks everyone for your comments. I like making people say, “Wow” or even better “AWWHH”. That’s incentive enough to write code like this. :-)

Just for kicks and giggles I have linked to some more examples on polyGeek.com

amazing

Never saw this and did not even know this is possible and I have quite a bit of experience with flash but not as3. . .

which brings me to the question: is this as2 compatible?

Hey, two questions: 1. Did you ever convert this to AS3 ? 2. Can this easily be used in Flex?

Thanks, Brad

@Brad, sorry, I haven’t gotten around to doing an AS3 version yet. So it won’t work in Flex. The source code is there. You can take a crack at it yourself.
