RE: [Flashcoders] Flex vs. Flash IDE
Really, the only thing Flash and Flex have incommon is what they compile to and they both us AS... Form application development in Flash is a royal pain.. In Flex its much easier and you can build a much better experience than with Flash. I know, I have done both... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Watts Sent: Tuesday, May 23, 2006 2:41 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Flex vs. Flash IDE > I guess whether you think it's a crappy analogy depends on whether you > believe Form-based applications are different enough from other flash > apps to warrant their own IDE. > Personally, I don't.

I don't know from superior - I have no knowledge or experience using the Flash IDE, and I'm not a Flash programmer. I AM a Flex programmer, however. (An inexperienced Flex programmer, but you have to start somewhere.) I also have experience developing forms-based applications using other traditional IDEs, such as Visual Studio and its predecessors. These IDEs have a common development idiom - you drag controls onto the form, you bind event handlers to them, etc. The Flash IDE does not follow this idiom, and the FlexBuilder IDE does. Whether you like it or not, this is very valuable if you want to attract developers who are familiar with the idiom. > Yes, the Eclipse IDE is cool. Yes, AS 3 looks promising. > But why not just build the Flash 9 IDE with an Eclipse-based > actionscript compiler/editor? It's all about the idiom, again - people with experience using traditional forms-based IDEs expect to see certain things. Eclipse has those things, the Flash IDE doesn't (at least, as far as I know - again, I'm not a Flash developer.) > Ceating two similar but non-overlapping products is confusing. I'm > sure it will create all sorts of workflow headaches between artists > and developers. I don't think the two products are similar at all. In fact, if they didn't create applications that used the same runtime environment (the Flash Player itself) you'd have no reason to assume they shared any commonality at all. > And I'm really not looking forward to explaining to clients who may > only have a passing familiarity with Flash that they're going to have > to buy both Flash 9 and Flex 2 to compile my stuff. :( Well, fortunately, they won't need to buy Flex 2 to compile your stuff. There will apparently be a free, command-line Flex compiler which you can download and use separately from FlexBuilder. In theory, you could just use Notepad or any other editor for Flex development, although that would probably be quite tedious and painful; in the same way, you can write C# apps with Notepad and compile them using the .NET MSIL compiler, but yecch.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flex vs. Flash IDE
Flex and Flash are really designed for 2 different purposes. From my own experience, Flex is more for true application development, i.e. dashboard type apps, financial apps, etc.. Flash is more for animation heavy types of websites. As such, the IDE's are geared towards each strength. I do like using the Flex IDE for ActionScript development whether its for a Flash based app or a Flex based app. I still don't like the ActionScript editor in Flash. Its much better than it used to be, but I still don't like it that much. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Doug Coning Sent: Tuesday, May 23, 2006 10:29 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Flex vs. Flash IDE Diddo!

RE: [Flashcoders] Zoom effect
Yup, I am working on a project that has a 'zoom' effect and the Tween
class is what I am using to do it.
Here is a link that was helpful to me.

I found Tweens working perfectly for this type of job.

[Flashcoders] onMotionFinished not firing...
Anyone have this problem?
I have a function that calls a tween based on a passed in parameter:
var l1:Tween = new Tween(holder_mc.universe_mc.s3_mc, "_x",
Regular.easeInOut, holder_mc.universe_mc.s3_mc._x, distance, 1, 5,
true);
l1.onMotionFinished = function() {
trace("I am finished");
};
But the onMotionFinished never fires Anyone have some insight?
