Re: [flexcoders] adding items to combo box

[Doug McCune]

I've had some of the same thoughts regarding documentation. The best resource (in terms of useful info and ease of use) in my mind is searching the Help in Eclipse. Does anyone else often experience extremely long loading times for the Flex documentation off of adobe.com? I'd rather use the online version (since it's got user comments) but it's often too slow, so I just stick to the Help in Eclipse. The "View examples" section in the AS Docs are awesome BTW. Links to tutorials on Adobe would be useful to have linked to from within the docs, maybe in the user comments section. The AS Docs are my main resource, so I'd like to see that as the core and expanded examples linked from there. Just my two cents.
