I'm sure that's the case, and I'm not trying to trivialize the immense amount of work that the FlexBuilder team put into the tool. I love it, and by and large the code editing is heads and tails above the Flash IDE or Dreamweaver, IMO. I just really like that feature, and am surprised that we haven't seen anything even attempting it from either Adobe or the OSS/Eclipse community.

Autoformatting a language like AS3 isn't a trivial amount of work. - Gordon ------------------------------ *From:* [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *On Behalf Of *Nick Collins *Sent:* Monday, February 12, 2007 11:26 AM *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* [flexcoders] Source formatting Ok, maybe I'm just lazy, or maybe I'm the only one that doesn't like to do some things manually, but I love the source formatting tools in Dreamweaver and Flash, and I have to wonder, why do we not have something similar in FlexBuilder? Yes I know I can select a block of text, right click and click shift right, or shift left, but I'd like a menu item or shortcut that will go through and align my code according to my preferences, like in Flash and Dreamweaver. Anybody know of anything out there that will do this for me?
