Hi guys, I am starting to use FDT3, and added an existing Flex project, from what I was using previously,Flex Builder, setting core library to default as3 library I suppose.

I'm traversing the children of an SWF loaded using flash.display.Loader, in an AS-only project under FlashDevelop. Calling flash.utils.getQualifiedClassName(obj) on the object returns "mx.core::UITextField" and while it is a subclass of flash.text.TextField, Calling (obj is flash.text.TextField) returns false. Any insights on that? Am ...

I have a flex 3 app that uses netstream and a video object to stream .mp4 movies. I want to use the bytesLoaded and bytesTotal properties of the netstream to display the buffering information. I would also like to get any information about the number of frames that are dropped if possible. When I've tested on .flv I'm able to get the ...

There's no point in me sending the file to my server as I can do all the work I need on the file right on the client's machine. Not sure if this is a good fit though, was wondering if anyone can answer these questions before I dive in: I see at adobe's ...

Just started coding in AS3 with FlashDevelop and coming from a C# background, I would like to know if there's something equivalent to the #region directive in AS3? The #region directive in C# essentially allows an IDE e.g Visual Studio to collapse or expand a section of code to improve readability. With #region directives, you can split...
