In fLash Builder 2, I would eventually like to select a bunch of lines of code in the actions panel, click with the right mouse button and click "apply // comment" but that doesnt work in FlashBuilder , at least not that way. this seems to be a kind of a silly problem but it iirrtates me

It seems all codes inside fx:Script blocks are black with no highlights. That's pretty inconvenient.
View 2 Replieswhile attempting to set my own format for my ActionScript 3.0 code, i found Preferences > Java > Code Style > Formatter. i then set the braces and indent format so my code will automate like this when it's written: i realize that ActionScript 3.0 and Java are completely different languages, but their syntax is nearly identical so i assumed that the Eclipse based Flash Builder would treat my AS3 as Java. it's exactly what i'm looking for since it allows me to change the default code format:

I was using a trial edition of flash builder 4 professional and I figured before it ran out I would test the profiler. What shocked me was the number of objects that were left resident in memory. After seeing that I decided to set up a small test and had very bad luck. I was hoping someone can look at the following and tell me assumption i have that is just wrong.

Anything like that out there now? I know there was a rather buggy formatter for FB 3, but how about a mature code formatter for FB 4?

View 9 RepliesI'm getting a Flash Builder warning message for multiple variable declarations of variable arr1 in the following AS3 [code]...
I could eliminate this warning with a few more if/else statements, but the code runs fine and I can't see why I should add complexity if the warning is acceptable. Would like to hear anyone else's opinion though if you think differently.
Assuming the warning is fine to live with, how to suppress the warning manually in Flash Builder? That is, only the warning for this example; other warnings must still be displayed.
Is it possible to get auto completion for flash libraries in flash builder 4.0?
View 2 RepliesIn Flash Builder, for objects, properties, variables and such where your cursor is on it, the editor highlights all instances of that name in the code with a grey box. This can be very distracting and I was wondering if there was a way to turn it off or if there is a hot key to disable it.Another things that is very distracting are the mouse hover popups, although apparently there's no way to disable those :

I was editing a very basic mobile Flex project, and after I debugged the master (application) mxml file, Design View stopped working (blank screen displayed, no Design View errors) for all files. Creating new projects, either mobile or else, or testing old, working projects, doesn't work either. Out of the related issues I've found info on, most concern earlier versions of the IDE, and deal with either Design View errors (got none), use of certain functions or custom components (I get the error even on a new project), or are solved by changing styles back-and-forth (tried already, to no avail).
I can't drag and drop components to the design area, either (a "prohibited" symbol appears and nothing happens when I drop); so I'm pretty sure it's not code-related or a bug, but probably something stupid, like a configuration issue, so I definitely need someone to take a fresh look at it.
Is it possible to set up comment boxes on a flash movie? For instance, if I am viewing a page on my flash movie and I wish to make a comment on it, is there a way to set up a comment box and also show all of the previous comments as well? I figure it is but I am just unsure as to how to start it.

We've got several Flex projects, one of which has just been refactored. I'm wondering if there's an easy way to tell which classes and functions (if any) aren't being used any more?
I've discovered that we've definitely got some unused code, because running ASDoc on the entire project reports some compilation errors which don't get reported by Flex Builder (implying that those classes aren't being used any more). I'm hoping to find a more robust and complete method, and preferably one which can work at function level too.
I am trying to use Flex Builder 3 to write my Actionscript 3.0 Code however whenever I try to Eg: import fl.transitions.Tween; it does not recognize the fl folder let alone the Tween Class to import.
Where is the default Actionscript 3.0 Classpath so that I can add it to Flex Builder 3's Source path?Btw I am using Adobe CS4 / Flex Builder 3.
I created a new actionscript project using Flex Builder 3 and tried to run the following file. I get this error : Definitions: fl.controls:Button could not be found.All I want to do is, to add a button to the application.How could I do it?

I'm trying to import a web service with the Flex builder feature (Data > Import Web Service). The process proceeds as expected and the classes are generated based on the web service description. The code is generated with compile errors in it though.There are 20 errors of 2 varieties. I've included a sample of the errors below.It looks like an error in the auto gen. The auto gen code is trying to dispatch an object of ArrayCollection type. As far I know that isn't possible. rror examples:

Does anyone know if there is a way to make the new Package Explorer window in Flash Builder emulate Flex Builders 'Flex navigator' window?
Bottom line is I don't always need to peer into SWC's, and I don't like having a 'default package' automatically created for me. Not sure why the interface wasn't made simpler, allowing access to more power and complexity only if necessary. I want to focus on the code, not on how to navigate and use the bells and whistles in the coding environment.
I have an AIR project that I was working on Flash Builder 4.5 which now I'm trying to import to my updated Flash Builder 4.5.1 and it is prompting me to fix some paths before the import is completed. I'm kinda clueless what I should put in those fields.

I want to add a comment to some elements in a Flex document, and process the comments using ASDoc. I can easily do this for the script portion, but I end up with a ton of ugly "This property can be used as the source for data binding." messages for each element I declared in Flex. Is there any way to embed a comment into a flex element so that it can be read by ASDoc? I have tried using the standard

notation, but that didn't seem to work.
EDIT: The notation seems to be swallowed up as an HTML comment..
I'm having a problem with the Toggle Comment command ("Comment Line / Selection") in TextMate for Actionscript 2 (I know, I know). I've tried completely stripping the language set down to isolate the issue, and tried walking through the Ruby, both to no avail. My issue is that the command insists on using block comments for comment toggling (⌘ + /) and doesn't respect when I add a preferences file to change TM_COMMENT_MODE. I even tried using this simple preference:
{ shellVariables = (
{ name = 'TM_COMMENT_START';
value = '// ';
},
);
}
but no luck. I'm hoping that someone who speaks Ruby much better than myself (ie. at all) can find a simple fix for this. You can reproduce in any (recent) install of TextMate by creating a new actionscript 2 file and trying to ⌘ + / a section of code (or even a line). Contrast to a JS file which will use a line comment. Copy the "Comments" snippet from JavaScript to Actionscript bundles, and the problem will persist.
I use [URL] tutorials but the only comment box they offer (as far as I can see) is a code where the send button triggers the users outlook to open to send the email.

I am not sure which part of the code does that, but is there a way to just have the comment send directly from my website, rather than opening up their outlook? I find that most of my visitors don't use any mail software, only online email, so I find it's inconvenient to ask them to send comments this way. is there code to have a comment send directly from my website to my email?
i'm trying to use the trace() function to get an output that uses a parentheses <"> within it.My problem is that when i type my trace, for example:

But the AS3 reads it such that the parentheses after "Andy will say" and after Hello.txt are normally utilized parentheses.
I have a Guestbook project to develop (personal project) but I can't multiply the values.. I'm testing with a XML (no PHP and DB yet)
For example: I need to load different values for each name, email, comment inserted from XML.
Name: (name_txt) -> Textfield;
Email: (email_txt) - > Textfield;
Comment: (comment_txt) -> Textfield;
Well.. I can load ONE node from XML, but i can't multiply it for 5 blocks of name,email and comment.And if i'd like to paginate if it runs more than 5 blocks, the next 5 goes to another page?
Here is my code:

var meuXML:XML; // vai guardar todo o conte�do do XML;
