The ColumnState class calculates the sizes and locations of columns using
the width of the container and the container attributes. You can create instances of this class
independently to calculate column values, or you can get the column values that
were used for the text after the container has been composed or updated (redrawn).

Constructor
public function ColumnState(blockProgression:String, columnDirection:String, controller:ContainerController, compositionWidth:Number, compositionHeight:Number)
Language Version :
ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions :
Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5
Constructor function - creates a ColumnState object.
If the values of controller.compositionWidth and controller.compositionHeight equal
NaN (not a number), the constructor measures the container's contents to determine the actual
composition width and height that feed into ColumnState.
Use the constants defined by the flashx.textLayout.formats.BlockProgression class to
specify the value of the blockProgression parameter. Use the constants defined by
flashx.textLayout.formats.Direction to specify the value of the columnDirection
parameter.
Parameters
blockProgression:String — The direction of lines for the textflow, either BlockProgression.TB (top-to-bottom) or
BlockProgression.RL (right-to-left).
columnDirection:String — The direction of column layout for the text flow, either Direction.RTL (right-to-left) or
Direction.LTR (left-to-right).
controller:ContainerController — A ContainerController instance whose attributes are used to calculate the column values.
compositionWidth:Number — The horizontal extent, in pixels, allowed for text inside the container.
compositionHeight:Number — The vertical extent, in pixels, allowed for text inside the container.
