I have downloaded Flash CS5. Where is the .as file for TLFTextField? I would like to evaluate how easy it is to subclass.

Digging around, trying to answer my question...

It looks like cs5 links against an RSL

http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/swz/tlf/1.0.0.595/textLayout_1.0.0.595.swz

Does this RSL have fl.text.TLFTextField inside of it?

I looked inside of http://opensource.adobe.com/svn/opensource/flex/sdk/trunk/frameworks/projects/textLayout/ and it does not appear to be in there, but thought it might be a good idea to ask.

There is a significant difference when comparing the file sizes of exported SWF files with and without a TLF Textfield.

I assume this is not all binding to the RSL SWZ.

Presumably this is fl.text code? Where is the source? Is it available?

Inspiring

fl.text is part of Flash Pro CS5 and not part of TLF. I believe the implementation is in tlfruntime.swc that comes with an install of Flash Pro CS5. Source is not available - at least not via TLF's published open source.

Hope that helps,

Richard
