  • Dynamic Authortime Symbols

    One will admit that Flash, ecspecially currently, is dynamic even before that first SWF is a dream. Keeping things free flowing while developing certainly helps in this volatile climate, but it helps even more if you have some foresight.

    Read on to learn about using the Source Property of a Flash Library Symbol in your workflow…

  • Flash 9 and the Ultra Left Timeline

    I had a dream last night that I was reading <a href=”http://www.markme.com/nigel/”>Nigel Pegg’s blog</a> and he was discussing his idea’s (since MM only plans one version in advance I guess) for Flash 9’s timeline. I believe he was discussing further opening the architecture of the Flash IDE itself, and was specifically mentioning the timeline. He supposedly had already done work on such a “class” and had named it the “ultraLeftTimeline.as” class. He said that Flashers could then customize it to their whims or write their own. Why’d we want to do this is beyond me, but it sounded pretty cool. I still don’t know where the “left” part of the class name came from.

    I woke up before I could finish reading his entry.

    I’ve been debating whether or not to wear that 2nd one to work…

    My parents will probably give me some more when I head over to their pad in a bit.
