Maybe for dduuggllaa, but not for me. FlexBuilder doesn't show it and that is lame for GUI components I created and want to interact with in Flex. There must be a way for my SWC's to easily integrate with FB.

The simplest is to put it in the same directory as the file where you want to use it. So say you had the code below saved as CustomPanel.as You could call it from within an MXML file in the same directory like this: CustomExample.mxml ******************* <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"; xmlns:user="*"> <user:CustomPanel id="myPanel" label="click to maximize" /> <mx:Button label="Click to resize panel." click="myPanel.resize(400,500);"/> </mx:Application> ******************** CustomPanel.as ***************************** import mx.containers.Panel; class CustomPanel extends Panel { function CustomPanel() { super(); } function resize(newWidth:Number,newHeight:Number) { width = newWidth; height = newHeight; } } ************************************** Depending on exactly what you want to do in ActionScript, you may or may not be able to achieve it without going into Flash Studio and creating a .swc file.
