I think the thing that everyone confuses when they ask these types of questions is Flex vs Flash....... IT IS ALL FLASH. Basically when you choose to use "The Flex Framework" for a project it is because you need to take advantage of the framework features that Flex provides like Data Binding and of course the main feature "The Components".
The main feature of Flex that you get out of the box is all the components that you can call and use without having to build your own. If you feel that the FrameWork will allow you a huge advantage because of the components say for building menus for your game or something of that nature then I would say Go for it! The Flex framework does have a SWFLoader Component that you could load your actual game into. Then if you need the came to send game data back and forth between the swf and the Flex application you could do this by using custom events or public variables or objects and functions. Does that help at all ? -Matthew Wallace http://flashalisious.com --- In [email protected], Axonn <theax...@...> wrote: > > > Hm, I think I didn't ask the right question, because somebody told me that it > *is* possible. > > What I want is this: > > - Create a FLA file in Flash. > - Draw 2 rectangles. > - Create an AS file in Flex 3. > - Attach it to the Flash. > - Export as SWF. > - Continue development in Flex 3.
