Agreed. We all tried to actually create a Yahoo Maps SWF in Flash 8, and then load the SWF into a Flex 2 Loader (component or flash intrinsic class), but no dice.
They are making one though, so maybe if we bitch more, they'll make it come out faster! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harris Reynolds" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 12:56 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Loading an SWC into Flex 2 Beta 2 Thanks for the reply Jester... that stinks that things like the Yahoo Maps component can not be imported into Flex 2. I tried importing the SWC directly *and* creating a new SWC with the MXP and obviously didn't have any luck with either approach. I am sure support from Yahoo will be coming in the future, but it would be nice to have it now!
