Hey Dany, Interesting. I originally wrote it in a way that would support this use case quite well. Basically the toolbar and the TextArea were separate so you could fairly easily change which TextArea the toolbar affected. The code is still available here: https://github.com/cjaube/piematrix/t

All of that is completely true. It's really great to read it all put together like this. I definitely remember all of this when it was happening. What I'm wondering is how approaching creating an independent VM would be done. I sometimes wonder if it would be better as a stand alone company outs

Hi All, I'm working with the new spark RichTextEditor and came up with a use case I'm unable to achieve: 2 or more RTE's are stacked vertically. Each of them have a formatting toolbar. > Is it possible to hide the toolbars of the individual RTE's? > is it possible to add one toolbar above all RT

Actually there are new statistics released by Adobe, and some more that are coming up in a few days as part of an official update of the Flash roadmap. Check my note and you will realize that if someone has to catch up, it is neither Adobe more the Flash developer, not even AS3. Go find 2.5 billion

Keep in mind though that Adobe is still investing in flash and air. They are just focused on gaming. There probably would be a mobile version if not for the fragmentation in the market from iOS, causing them to drop off of it. My understanding is that flex also doesn't work with the latest VM th

I don't agree you Gary. If you have a soccer team to fight the Champions League every year, and by the way possibly win 2-3 cups every year too... Staying alive at the bottom of the first division is not to be doing it very well. I think they really don't know or value what they have at their hand

What I was trying to point is: Flash Player is not an Adobe's bussiness core tool right now, and depending absolutely from a company which is not investing hard on it is the way to certain death, maybe not today, not tomorrow, let's see in a couple of years. Open sourcing the player is their decis

If FlowComposerBase.isDamaged() is returning the answer you want, why not add enough code to get its value? IIRC, the RichTextEditor and TLF have some logic to do a compose(). I would think you would want Squiggly to run whenever the compose() finishes, not when it is damaged. -Alex On 2/25/15,

1) System like Flash can't be done by opensource community, and every system comes to this complex, will have the same problem, HTML/JavaScript do much worse, because they have more debt to pay off, for example, websites made in 1999. 2) Every big bully wants to have there own environment, develope
