my_fmt.align = "center";
this.createTextField("my_txt", 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
my_txt.multiline = true;
my_txt.wordWrap = true;
my_txt.border = true;

blockIndent (TextFormat.blockIndent property)
public blockIndent : Number
A number that indicates the block indentation in points. Block indentation is applied to an
entire block of text; that is, to all lines of the text. In contrast, normal indentation
(
TextFormat.indent) affects only the first line of each paragraph. If this property is null,
the TextFormat object does not specify block indentation.
