*snip* i like flex and where it can be used but i'd like to see the features in flex syncronized in/with flash authoring. that would be killer. *snip*
I don't see any reason why that wouldn't be good for everybody. Personally I have always found Flash authoring a very frustrating tool to work with, but I'm a very code centric type of person. The only time I want to see what my app looks like is when I test it. I find any time I use a graphical tool to build apps I end up sitting there for far too long trying to debug something that was created visually, which I don't completely understand, and which I probably can't control down to the finest detail. Flex 1.5 and Flex Builder 2 give me the option of using that as my workflow. I'm not saying Flash authoring isn't a good tool. It obviously is for a very large number of people, but without Flex and other options for building apps in a code centric way I doubt if I would be working with flash at all. It's all about choice :-) Spike On 10/28/05, Judah Frangipane <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > right on. that's what i'm talking about. flash was about 80%-90% there > for developers and then they forked the sucker. are they focus on > developers in the next version of flash authoring since 8 was a designer > oriented release? i like flex and where it can be used but i'd like to > see the features in flex syncronized in/with flash authoring. that would > be killer. > > ryanm wrote: > > > One might ask, however, why, instead of creating a whole new > > development platform, they didn't just release better components that > > are easier to skin, better CSS support, better html support, and just > > make Flash a whole lot more capable and eay to develop for.
