Component's dialog windows and comboboxes are not working properly.This is an issue when the FlashTexteditor is loaded into a movie clip.
The solution is to set the _lockroot property of the FlashTexteditor to true.
For more information on this property please see Flash livedocs
Some component properties(fontList, fontSizes...) are not working as expected.Because the FlashTexteditor uses the Macromedia v2 components, setting some properties before initialization has completed will not work.
The solution is to use the doLater method of the UIObject to postpone execution.
For more information on this method please see Flash livedocs
