Hi,
I'm using the following code to draw an SVG text box, and then change its text anchor attribute to 'left' as it defaults to center and that's nasty.
The text generates correctly, but when I add this second line I get the error 'this.textBox.style is undefined' in my error console.
Here's my code:
RenderTextBox:function()
{
// Render Text
this.textBox = paper.text(this.x, this.y, this.htmlText);
this.textBox.style.textAnchor="left";
}
Any ideas?
