There's an 80 page document that shows: - how to build simple components in Flash for use in Flex; - instructions on how to compile components into SWCs; - where to put SWCs for use in your Flex environment; - and Much Much More! :)
This document was removed from the Flex 1.0 DevApps book and put up as a separate document on the Macr website because it details a workflow that we don't really want to encourage. The process for building and skinning components made in Flash for use in Flex applications should be streamlined (again!) for 2.0. Link: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/documentation/en/flex/15/flex_compone nts_themes.pdf Also, read the last chapter of the 1.5 DevApps book which provides info on using the components document for Flex 1.5. Hope this helps, matt horn ________________________________ From: JesterXL [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2005 9:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Still Need Example of Custom Component Built in Flash Coding it in Flash isn't hard... it's installing the mofo that I don't know how to do. The docs say you can use an SWC, but where said SWC goes, is beyond me. I managed to throw one in here: C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flex Builder 1.5\Configuration\Objects\MXML\WEB-INF\flex\frameworks ANd it shows up as a "no package" tab when you reboot FlexBuilder, but has no size when dragged to a form (even though width and height default to values), nor does it compile, complaining about my classpath or something. Anyway, that's the key part that's missing I think.

The simpler the better. Thanks. -Douglass Turner Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
