Hi, ok thanks, so let me get this right, a clip in the library can be called eg MC_Foo and on stage its called MC_Foo as well, with caps?
And when you reference to this clip from a class or movieclip subclass, do you create an additional field for it (eg myMC_Foo) and copy the reference, or do you simply refer to MC_Foo through out the class? A proposal currently going through our organisation is mc_foo for library and foo_mc for stage and its -very- confusing imo, but yours might be a good solution to the problem ;) thanks JC On 5/10/07, Steven Sacks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I use the following naming conventions for both library and instance. MC_Foo for movieclips BTN_Foo for buttons or movieclips that behave as buttons GR_Foo for Graphic Symbols FONT_Foo for font symbols and their linkage IDs VID_Foo for Video symbols, not for instances, though I use the following instance names for items that have no library item associated with them. TXT_Foo for dynamic text fields INP_Foo for input text fields CMB_Foo for combo boxes RB_Foo for radio buttons RBG_Foo for radio button groups SP_ for scrollpanes FLV_Foo for FLV players etc. You get the idea. My naming convention is 100% dedicated to code readability. At a glance, I can identify movieclips, textfields, components, etc. apart from eachother and from variables. It makes them stand out very well and makes debugging so much faster when I don't have to go hunting for anything. _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
