Hi; I've found the following AS2 script I'm trying to translate into AS3. Right now, I'd just like a little help understanding how to rewrite some code variables. Please help me translate into AS3 (with my guesses ;) _xmouse (mouseX?) _root (root?) Just for good style, should I eliminate all the leading underscores, or is this used for keeping the variables private (like in python)? Also, is there a good online doc for translation from AS2 to AS3? BTW, I assume the "Flash IDE (integrated dev. env.)" means the GUI, as opposed to coding directly?
