[flexcoders] Do Flex and designers mix well?

2006-02-08 Thread Tim Hewitt



Im interested to hear peoples views on how they integrate designers into their workflow when using flex.Also how powerful/constrictive people are finding flex when integrating 'complicated/expressive' designs.Are there good ways to integrate the freedom and expressiveness of the flash IDE using contraint-based 
layouts and skinned components?I am only just beggining to explore the Flex framework (I come from a flash development background) for possibleuse in a large-scale future project, but I have yet to see anything that combines real creativity with strong functionality
and data handling (the last 2 of which seem to be Flex strengths).cheerstim

Check out Waldo Smeets blog. He has an article on how the Flash 8 designer can work with Flex skinning. As well, any designer assets can be embedded as resources and or loaded at runtime. I would imagine your design team would also be responsible for video assets. However, designing the application view's will take some knowledge of mxml which shouldn't be too difficult since its based on xml and closely related to html
