Packageflashx.textLayout.container
Classpublic class TextContainerManager
InheritanceTextContainerManager Inheritance EventDispatcher Inheritance Object
Implements ISWFContext, IInteractionEventHandler, ISandboxSupport

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Manages text in a container. Assumes that it manages all children of the container. Consider using TextContainerManager for better performance in cases where there is a one container per TextFlow, and the TextFlow is not the main focus, is static text, or is infrequently selected. Good for text in form fields, for example.
