		<description><![CDATA[What if you could take the existing text in a TextField and dynamically break it apart into individual TextFields for each character, word, or line so that you could animate them separately? Maybe your goal is to explode the characters apart or have words fall into place while fading in or blur sequentially. There are lots of great tools out there for creating interesting text effects but maybe you don't want an all-in-one solution with a new interface or API to learn. Maybe you're comfortable with the <a href="/tweenlite/">GreenSock Tweening Platform</a> and you want to control all the animation yourself and minimize file size. That was the idea behind SplitTextField. It isn't meant to be a text effects engine - it simply breaks apart a TextField instance and swaps itself (a Sprite) into place where the original TextField was in the display list, retaining the same scale/position/rotation so things appear relatively seamless. The SplitTextField has a "textFields" property which is an Array containing all the child TextFields it created (one for each character, word, or line based on the splitType property). Then you can animate to your heart's content.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever needed to find out where the line breaks occur in a dynamic TextField? How about the precise x/y coordinates of a particular phrase/string along with its width &#038; height so that you could highlight it somehow? Or maybe the width of each line of text? That's all possible with the gs.utils.text.TextMetrics class.]]></description>
