Description

Sometime when laying out text a 1502 timeout occurs. Issue is in ScrollerLayout updateDidplayList in deciding to add scrollbars or not.

This simple program shows the issue:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">

<!-- Slowly slde down to zero to reproduce bug - can happen when about 2 or 3 characters wide -->
<mx:Slider id="vslider" minimum="0" maximum="100" value="100" />
<s:TextArea width="

{vslider.value}

" text="Apache Flex TLF bug"/>

</s:Application>
