Even without trying 2.0 final yet, I would strongly urge you not to upgrade your main flex beta environment. Install it on a separate computer, spend about and hour or two on just seeing what has changed. If it takes longer, you're probably best off not doing it. I think that's the best advice

We expect mid size apps to migrate costs us one or two days. Six days should be fine then. But if you don't really need it, i wouldn't take the risk of loosing 5 month. Cheers,Ralf. On 6/28/06, Sonja Duijvesteijn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all,I've been working on a fairly large application

One thing to keep in mind is that F2B3 code doesn't seem to run the same in the newly released Flash 9 Player. I just loaded up my F2B3 app with the new Flash Player and it doesn't work the same. The UI colors are off and I can't even load up all of my views in the code. So make sure you bundle

Custom Item renderers are a bit funky. There's a border now around the itemrenderers.Popup window syntax that worked in Beta 3 no longer compile in final release.That's two differences I found in the 5 minutes I looked at it. I'd say wait, especially since so much rides on everything working.

Thank you everyone for your insights in this. I will just stick with the beta for now and make sure to bundle it with the beta of the flashplayer when it's finished. I did expect this to be the outcome, but in a perfect world everything would still work , just better (; Just thought I'd check
