Hello, I have a problem with TFLTextField.  
Instence of this class have a problem with ‘appendText’. Each time I have #1009 Error. This is wird, because I’am sure that this object is not null (I’m trying to use appendText after Event.ADDED\_TO\_STAGE)  
Moreover, ‘+=’ works well.  
In attachement I put basic scene with this error.

Do you have a solution for this?
