I have assets in external swfs which I load. I would like to know the exact size of the stage and the position of the asset in the fla that created it. If I try to ask the resulting MovieClip for it's size, it turns out it gives me the size when it is trimmed down to the tightest box around the non-transparent pixels. Looking at the c...
I have 2 files, 1 to dispatch the event and 1 to receive it (of course in addition to the event class itself). I've done this before with both dispatching and receiving files being mxml, but this time the dispatching file is an actionscript class, and it's not working this time. Is it different for actionscript classes? Here's a dumbed...
I have got a simple flex client requesting some data from a php script. I am using URLLoader to pass the parameters to the php and wait for the response.

Within the library, flex builder only seems to display content/code assist options for top level classes (e.g. arguments, Array) but not other classes such as VBox. Also, within the non top level classes, class properties are not provided by content assist. In my other flex projects in th...

I'm not sure I'm using the right terms. Long ago I tinkered with Eclipse and recall there were "environment variables" that could be specified in project settings and compiler directive fields in the GUI itself to customize builds. I believe the syntax was similar to ant properties, like ${env.HOME} for inserting the user's home direct...
