Implements ITextEditor, INativeFocusOwner

Product Version : Feathers 2.0.0

Text that may be edited at runtime by the user with the TextInput component, rendered with bitmap fonts.

The following example shows how to use BitmapFontTextEditor with a TextInput:

var input:TextInput = new TextInput();
input.textEditorFactory = function():ITextEditor
{
    return new BitmapFontTextEditor();
};
this.addChild( input );

Warning: This text editor is intended for use in desktop applications only, and it does not provide support for software keyboards on mobile devices.
