What’s with the sub/superscript chars??

I’m amazed I haven’t dealt with this issue before. I just never had a real need for support of sub/superscripts character Flash’s dynamic textfields, until yesterday. I spent hours last night poking around forums and mailing lists archives trying to figure out a solution, but there is none. How is that possible? Why has Flash been dragging this issue for so many years?

Fortunately for me, I had a problem similar in nature, years ago. Creativity is a child of desperation. In that opportunity, I created a separate type face to store special characters I needed for the project. Surprisingly, that’s the only documented solution I have been able to find.

Now, I have somebody working on character sets to store sub/superscript characters for 2 different type faces…. I just hope they will have it between 2 hours.

Come on Flash Team, show some love…
