I had this same problem. In my case I had a mx:Text block (that SHOULD have wrapped), and that mx:Text object was embedded within TWO mx:VBox containers.
The only way that I got the text to wrap successfully was to do BOTH of the following:
- put the ‘ width=”100%” ‘ property into EACH VBox container (in which the mx:text resided).
- put the ‘ width=”100%” ‘ property into EACH mx:Text object (residing within this nesting of VBox’s)
Very non-intuitive, but this is what worked for me.
I hope this helps you!
