Hi all, <The slightly OT part>
Been lurking the list for about 2 months and this far i´ve read a LOT of very good posts here. But this is my FIRST own contribution. I´m perty new to this list and serious Flash development aswell. Although i´ve got 10+ years experience with Macromedia/Adobe products (mainly Director). A lot of you will say finally he´s seen the light! Maybe your right, only time will tell. Right now i seriously feel as if i´ve taken a step back to somewhere around Director 5. Though i gotta say i love drawing in Flash. Truth to tell i´ve always looked down on JS because of a lot of things, won´t even start on why. So this far i´m spending a lot of time headbutting the syntax ;) So I might start of swearing about AS. But, i´ll work hard on learning to appreciate AS, i promise. But, i´ve been working with serious games programming in a lot of different enviroments, so i got a more than average grasp of how to structure my code (once i´ve managed to spell it right). Oh, this is just me ranting. Ok, i´ll admit it, i´ve only glanced through some flash books yet. Got 4 hopefully good ones comming this week. So this might be a tad bit premature. But any way.... </OT> Now to the Q´s: If they seem stoopid, plz, let me know ;) How do YOU work in Flash? -Timeline -Scripting (OOP, scope, frames) -Tools (external scripting, other external tools) -Built in behaviors and objects (Use / don´t use) -Putting it all together (multiple cooks?) How do YOU structure a project? Let´s say i´m making a custom video interface. Pretty straightforward. and i´ve got 1 dynamicaly loading videoclip. 1 set of player buttons (Play, Pause, Stop, FFW, REW) 1 volume control 1 animated playhead (with the posibility to drag it to any spot in the video) I´m interested in hearing your thought on how to use Flash for development in a time efficient and well managed way. respectfully Mikael Wirén _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com 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
