Here are the beginnings of docs for ASML. It also provides a link to Renaissance, the format upon which ASML is based. Most of it will work in ASML. We've also added some things of our own (like includes, theme tags, color tags, etc).
https://secure.sourcesecure.co.uk/trac/osflash/actionstep/wiki/XmlLayout As far as getting the source, we no longer use sourceforge...and we really should get rid of the links on our project page. We are on sourcesecure. This is the location of our SVN repo: http://svn.sourcesecure.co.uk/osflash/actionstep/trunk/ Don't be discouraged by the code. There is a *ton*, and not all of it is documented, although more is getting done every day. Check out the org.actionstep.test namespace for code tests. And if you're not willing to do all this, we're making an alpha release at the end of this month. It's a big deadline for us, so all the bugs we know about will be squashed. As far as the cursor slowdown goes it seems to be only happening over buttons with tooltips and resizing. I will look into this immediately. We do not have any support for skinning in the XML, except for color declarations and the definining the class to use as the theme class, but we're always open to suggestions. :) Color declarations can have the effect of overridding default colors used by the theme. Rich is currently overhauling our default theme to support this. Symbols can be used in a custom theme, but the theme must make use of symbols through code and using ASSymbolImageRep instances.

I didnt realize actionstep had asml. I also didnt realize you guys were as far along as you are. Are there any docs? I have no experience with actionstep, and the sourceforge page doesnt have much info. In other words, if I wanted to play with this, what would be the best place to get started? One issue that I noticed was that the custom cursor thing was a bit slow. It could not keep up with the mouse which ended up creating an odd UI sensation. It was like trying to swim in jelly. Admittedly, this is on a pretty slow computer, but just FYI. Oh, one other question. How does the skinning work? Do you specify skins using XML or code or graphical elements?
