The FlashIDE is really one useful for placing the assets and timeline control as you stated. If you're asking if it automatically writes AS code for you, I don't believe that it does. However, there are shortcuts for simple actions. The FlashIDE's code interface is highly regarded as sub par for the purpose of programming. Those that use the IDE to build the asset library are usually graphics designers, which then pass the swf to a programmer that typically uses mtasc to compile in the code. Mtasc is much faster and more strict in what it allows to compile.
