There is a new Flex developer toy on the market, it is called KapInspect Just embed it into your Flex App, with either SWC or Module, and you will be able to : - browse the display list - log all framework events - inspect any object, with hierarchical inspection of classes, arrays,... - and much more !
It could help you to develop your Flex apps, it is free, and available here : http://lab.kapit.fr/display/kapinspect/Kap%20Inspect Hope you will have as much use to it than I had fun to develop it
