Using Flex together Flash CS4

January 31st, 2009

Hi, now i will talk something about how work with Adobe Flex together with Adobe Flash CS4, and how it can speed your code and make increase your produtivity. Well, three simple things to change your coding to Flex is a complex project organizer into Flex, at the first time we load all the project and we can jump from the document classe for the import classe using a simple click in the import line. 

When we write the code, or beginner coders, can dont understant or dont know where is the ‘Event’ class. Using Flex when i write the code that use Event automaticly Flex create the import line into your class – Great. So, other thing is the ‘import help’, typing the import line the Flex make one list of classes that you found into com or gs or some class folder like show bellow:

import class

Of course for make this list we need put the our library folder using right click on your Project and select the Properties selection. Into Properties go to Actionscript Build Path and add a folder where have your classes or into Library Path can set your SWC file library.

Other thing so much important to increase the produtivity is an Cold Fusion plugin update. You can see the install process in GotoAndLearn site in this tutorial. This update will install the Snip Tree View. Essencialy Snip make shortcuts to code functions, hmm great or no? Thing you type ef + CRTL or COMMAND + Space and appear in your code the lines:

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, );

Well, it is totally possible using this new feature, see the preview bellow.
