If you click the full screen option on the player (in screen) then it will
go full screen and you wont have to scroll around.   I always just click
full screen as a matter of habit so I was not aware of  the issue and didnt
think to point it out. sorry!

 Does anyone have a link to this where it's not in a window that makes you
 scroll around to see the whole thing?

 Thanks;

 I've been using .NET for years and recently started developing in Flex. One 
 thing I've noticed (and maybe it's because I'm new) is that I have to write 
 out just about everything. There were so many things in .NET that the IDE 
 would handle for me. Like I could write a function, like DoThis(), and then 
 right-click on DoThis() and the IDE would ask me if I wanted to generated a 
 method stub. I know that's not earth-shattering, but there were a few things 
 here...a few things there that shaved off some seconds and/or minutes and 
 just generally speed up development.

FlashDevelop has this.

 I haven't run across anything like that in the FlexBuilder IDE - so my 
 question is: What's your favorite tip/trick for speeding up development? Do 
 you have some favorite text snippets that you keep handy? Or do you you know 
 some trick in the IDE that will save me some repetition?
 
 Or better yet, is there a site or list out there that covers this topic? 
 Thanks to all! Have a great weekend!

In the next version of FlexBuilder you will see a lot more of this.

There is getter and setter fillers (which will stop me being lazy and using 
public variables).

I also noticed method generation if you set a click property on a button etc.

At the moment we have refactoring, which is a help, but rather basic.

You may also find some custom plugins for Eclipse that will do bits and bobs 
for you.
