Easy way to remove TLF text cursor?
I might be missing something obvious, but I don't see an easy way to remove a text cursor from TLF text.
Setting stage.focus = null prevents input, but you still get the blinking cursor. Doing this on multiple text containers will get you multiple blinking cursors.
Any suggestions?

Yup. I'm very familiar with TLF.
My issue was programmatically removing focus from an editable TextFlow…

Hi Harbs,
If you need a non-editable TextFlow, you just have to set his interaction
manager to null.

FWIW, setting stage.focus = null may get overridden by the Flex
FocusManager. It might try to restore focus to the control. The
FocusManager tries to make sure something always has focus.
Also note that the blinking cursor is a child Sprite or Shape of the text
widget.

I knew this at some point…
textFlow.interactionManager.selectRange(-1,-1);
