 Thanks, Eric. So I guess none of the mx.controls are for Flash but, rather,
 are all for Flex?

Yes, they are part of the Flex class libraries. You may be able to use
them in Flash directly, but that's not their design intent.

I used Google and found this that seems decent enough:

http://developer.yahoo.com/flash/astra-flash/alertmanager/

I am assuming that you like the fact that the Flex background is
blurred while the alert is being displayed. Is this true? If you
rolled your own, the stage is a MovieClip, so you could apply a blur
filter to it, or take a bitmap snap of it and blur that  place your
own alert sprite on top, or whatever.

[Flashcoders] problem with import mx.controls.Alert

2010-06-01 Thread Jim Andrews

Am I on the right list for a question like this?

I get an error, in Flash Builder 4, with the following line, which is part 
of an ActionScript project.


import mx.controls.Alert;

The error is 1172: Definition mx.controls:Alert could not be found.

How do I fix this?

ja?

Make a Flex app - Alert is for Flex. Or make your own Alert class. I'm
not sure if linking the Flex SWCs would work for an Alert or not.
