Also, leave the "Parameters" in the "Component Definition" window blank, it's
there for backwards compatibility and will be filled
in automatically if you use [Inspectable] metadata in your class.
But for that to work you need to fill in the class (including package) in the
"AS 2.0 Class" field - just below the paramaters in
the Component Definition window.
When you make changes to a class' [Inspectable] metadata, those changes are not
reflected in the fla immediatly. For instance, if
you add new Inspectable metadata and you have a movieclip instance on stage,
you won't see the properties show up in the Parameters.
You'll have to compile the fla first, or make the movieclip a "compiled clip"
and recompile it each time you change the class.
