The SWC file is great, the way it's written is blasphemy; I agree it should be changed, and damn quick before the blogsphere picks it up full steam.

It's obvious of course as has been said that Flash Player is used for presentation of Flex -- still the SWC as you say and I agree, is a big mistake as it can cause "shock" :-/ Besides this mistake though, seems Yahoo is starting to get it's act together in working with developers; i'm sure to compete with Google. I really see huge things for Web Services and Flex in the next 1-3 years....with the smooth performance of Flash 8 Video, I just have to believe it's possible to do one-up on DirectX and create a unifying OSX WINXP 3D model that is xml tag based in description of object, environments, etc. If this issue is somewhere in there, the sky's the limit (as long as the corp.anality stays out; but w/ the nice change in reasonable deployment model for Flex2 I see good things only). --- JesterXL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > For those who want to see a quick example, you can > download the SWC > (stupidly called Shockave control on the site, > that's where the confusion > came in), and use this code.
