Hey all, I am beginning the authoring a class to manage objects dynamically. The main functionality is to group/ungroup the objects. I was thinking of starting out by having each object be it's own group. [{id:1, name:"foo", group:1}, {id:2, name:"bar", group:2}, {id:3, name:"mustaine", group:3}]

FlashVars should be available immediately when your .swf runs. AFAIK, you don't call them via ExternalInterface - which is more for calling Javascript. Jason Merrill Bank of America Global Learning Learning & Performance Solutions Join the Bank of America Flash Platform Community and visi

I would recommend using the Timer class instead of the EnterFrame event. Timer gives you more control, less overhead, more elegant. Jason Merrill Bank of America Global Learning Learning & Performance Solutions Join the Bank of America Flash Platform Community and visit our Instructiona
