I’m going to play with Text Layout Engine, which is bundled in Flex 4. But we need to use it in Flex 3 in our Goalscape project. And it’s possible to use Text Layout Engine in Flex 3. All you need to do is download Flex 4 SDK, or Flash Builder and get textLayout.swc from Flex 4 SDK into your project to libs folder. I’ve played with Flex 4 beta testLayout.swc, but now when Flex 4 beta 2 is released I’ve checked both .swc files and filesize has raised from 326kB to 531kB, so I’m really interested in what was changed or added. I will post about my tests when I will find out anything. So if you are interested in some Text Layout Engine examples, stay tuned.
