I'm looking for a new, modern components with enhanced functionality for working with graphics and text.

For example by mouse over to the text appears a icon click on that appears a panel into which you can change the font, font size, font color, letter-range, etc.

With graphics by pointing resizing handles appear, rotation, reflection, etc.

A: 

It sounds like you want to create a custom tooltip, that has the options to change/edit the appearance of the UIComponent that was hovered over. This is a tricky mofo of a component to make. I made a custom tooltip based on a Canvas, that has an item renderer associated with it. If your in earnest, I could probably put together a usable example and post it (on my blog or something).

If you hover over a component, a regular toolip appears, but when you hover over the tooltip, it expands out to a custom tooltip. I used Timer objects with event listeners added.

After that, you'll need to do all the transform stuff. Probably out of the scope of a single StackOverflow question to be honest.

Oh, no. I'm probably wrong to put it. I need components like this http://www.greensock.com/transformmanageras3/ but free. This is for graphics, but there are similar components for advanced text edition.
