Yes, TLF is packaged separately in textLayout.swc and textLayout.swz. We'll be hosting this SWZ along with framework.swz, flex4.swz, etc.

Thanks. I was wondering why the FTE components didn't have any option for making the text selectable and editable, but now it makes sense. I guess my issue with using TLF is that it adds min. 60-70K to my SWF size. This is an ActionScript-only project with Flex 3. I know TLF is part of Flex 4, so I get the benefit of framework caching, but I just want to use TLF and not the rest of the Flex framework. Is there an option to get a .swz for just TLF?
