,
which indicates that the property is undefined. If the value is

var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.bold = true;
this.createTextField("my_txt", 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
my_txt.multiline = true;

my_txt.text = "this is my test field object text";
my_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);
TextFormat.bullet
Availability
Flash Player 6.
Usage
my_fmt .bullet :Boolean
Description
Property; a Boolean value that indicates that the text is part of a bulleted list. In a bulleted list,
each paragraph of text is indented. To the left of the first line of each paragraph, a bullet symbol is
displayed. The default value is
null
.
Example
The following example creates a new text field at runtime, and enters a string with a line break
into the field. The TextFormat class is used to format the characters by adding bullets to each line
in the text field. This is demonstrated in the following ActionScript:
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.bullet = true;
this.createTextField("my_txt", 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
my_txt.multiline = true;
my_txt.wordWrap = true;
my_txt.border = true;
my_txt.text = "this is my text"+newline;
my_txt.text += "this is more text"+newline;
my_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);
