Hi,
I had similar problems - I have been developing with FD3 (nice) to
write AS3 code and using Embed to add graphics / sounds at compile
time. Graphics were created as MovieClips in Flash 8 - I have one file
and set Linkages.
Previously with AS2, I have used the Linkage / AS2 class file
method, so this is a similar thing. Look at Keith Peter's post here for
some direction:

I ran into some problems with this though - it looks like FD3 only
has autocompletion for the core AS3 and the Flex side of things. I
wanted to use the mx.* tween classes, but could not get these into my
project as I don't have CS3...
I asked about this on the FD Forums - search for author "glenpike" -
and got the reply that I should install CS3 to compile against the
classes, so I guess there is no stub code like FD coders have provided /
integrated for Flex code autocompletion... There will probably be an
issue with CS3 components too - have not tried this yet.
FD3 allows you to create Flex / Flash projects so I guess the Flex
one includes the framework if you use it (sorry, a few weeks since I did
the "Hello World" stuff and have forgotten the exact bits).
Also, if you use FD3, get the shell script for the Flex compiler -
it improves compilation speed greatly -

Hi all,
As far as I know, so called "pure AS3 project" typically uses flash classes,
intristics and others that come along with Flash IDE.

Frankly, I'd prefer to use flash-like class structure, instead of mixed
mxml-and-as code.
After googling for an hour or so, the best workaround I've found is:

I guess I'm not the only one who faced this issue.
Can you please share you finding and/or thoughts?
PS: currently I'm working in Flex2 SDK (via FlashDevelop), but without Flash
IDE.
