Piotr, my guess around low adoption by old flex users and new users is that we are still behind 1.0 and docs are still on the works. When we get to pass that point we'll be able to be more aggressive in communication efforts. I mean try to be exposed in publications specialized webs, and more.

The reality is showing that since this project exists I don't see any single user who came from JS/.NET/Java world to our framework. Everyone who are interested are from Flex/ActionScript world. At the beginning the strategy with name changing was great, but it shows that is not working or even

Hi Greg, agree with all you say. As a user of Swiz on Flex, I know Swiz was a "sub-framework" and used by a "subset" of teams and developers in the world. So in the end is a piece of software needed, for using Royale in big projects, but for migration from Flex I expect few devs/teams, since

Alex, I think that java framework is unlikely to be important for the same reasons you give for 3rd party Basic or Jewel. Firstly I don't think it has been widely used. Although it is never a perfect assessment, I tend to look at things like that by first checking how active they are (commits,

Hi Carlos, I don't think you understood my point. Probably every good name has been used on GitHub or soon will be. Even Royale was. The question is whether anyone would want to see some other 3rd-party Jewel or Basic library implemented in Royale. I suspect it is unlikely. "Crux" for

Hi Alex, your concerns about Crux name applies to the others like Basic or Jewel (just to name a few). If I search for "Jewel js" in google I get various Jewel libraries (same for Basic js). What makes Jewel appropriate for us is that is an internal name (internal branding) we use to refer to

Regarding naming, giving something a longer more descriptive name can also make it harder to use and then folks start using the short name and then there can be confusion again. AIUI, trademark issues are about confusion. Names like "Basic" and "Jewel" don't appear to have uses that could be

Hi Josh, it's great that you're working on this. Unless I'm mistaken, there is currently a 'manual' way to do this, which you may have already seen, using 'exclude-defaults-css-files' in royale-config, I believe this type of approach works: MXRoyaleJS.swc:defaults.css (I saw

I'm working on a fix for the CSS issue that Harbs started a thread about. I'm almost ready, but I have some edge cases to finish up. I feel like it's an important one to get into the release because it injects a lot of Jewel CSS into non-Jewel apps (and CSS from *several* other SWCs too). However,

Hi Josh, For the addedToStage stuff: You made me look! Swiz does not actually use the ADDED event, it definitely does use ADDED_TO_STAGE by default, but you're absolutely right, this does not bubble. I did not pay too much attention to the 'bubbling' side of things because I could see it working

This is great. However, even with the original Swiz I found the documentation quite thin and that it made a lot of assumptions about what a general developer might know and need to know. This site [1] made an attempt about ten years ago to improve on an intro to Swiz. What plans are in the works

Cool stuff, Greg and Carlos! One concern: In Flash, the "addedToStage" event does not bubble. It's actually the "added" event that bubbles and is used by frameworks like Swiz, Cairngorm, Robotlegs, etc. To avoid potential confusion for people migrating an existing app from Flex/Flash that might
