2010-12-13 Thread Mendelsohn, Michael
Hi list...

I'm developing an AIR app that will have a companion online swf.  The two 
pieces share much of the same code to render the UI and its various behaviors.  

I haven't started building the online swf yet, and I'm approaching the point in 
the AIR app where I am dealing solely with the AIR apis.  Would it make sense 
to have just one fla, but switch out the document class when it comes time to 
publish each piece, or just make two flas?  I'm looking for best practices in 
how to do this.

Thanks!
- Michael M.

Hello,

Am wondering whether it is possible to generate the basic Flash components
like buttons, checkbox and scrolling fields with pure ActionScript (no
Flex),  i.e., without placing them in the Flash IDE library.

No.

They need their skin symbols. And they need their swc too, without it 
they can't be included by the compiler. Putting the component in the 
library links in the swc in addition to copying the skin symbols.

Re: [Flashcoders] Components With Pure ActionScript

2010-12-13 Thread John McCormack
I have used Flash buttons from the library, published then in a SWC and 
used them in a pure ActionScript AS3 project using Flash Builder. No 
Flex required.
In Flash Professional I modified the button skins to suit me and then 
after publishing in Flash Builder I altered the button's text at runtime.

So I think the answer will be a complete yes.

John

Yes.
I think you can create them easely whitout the use of the library.
Just write them into classes and create your skin with code.
This will give you ALL the flexibility!

First, you're assuming all components are visual, but second, visual components 
*can* be built with just Actionscript.

It depends on how many files you want to manage.  I think from a OOP
perspective, you would want to have one fla and two doc classes.  As long as
it doesn't effect your timeline (or headaches) to get everything to work
together.
