BETA ActionScript 3.0 Reference for the Adobe Flash Platform released on help.adobe.com

I just “tweeted” this, but thought it warranted a nice little blog post as well.

The documentation team released a cool new version of the Adobe Flash Platform Language Reference (which includes all APIs from the following products: Adobe Flash CS4 Professional, Adobe AIR, LiveCycle Data Services, Adobe ColdFusion, Adobe Flex, and Adobe Flash Player — as well as the Text Layout Framework (TLF) classes). And the great news is, you can filter content based on Runtimes (Adobe AIR and/or Flash Player) as well as by Product (Flex, Flash Authoring, LiveCycle, and/or ColdFusion).

New ActionScript blog – http://actionscriptexamples.com/

I started another new blog (actionscriptexamples.com/) a few months ago, but have been holding off on posting the URL until I got some content posted. Well, content has gone a lot slower than planned, but I think I finally have enough entries where the site may be useful to somebody out there.

The ActionScript Examples blog mainly focuses on ActionScript 3.0 solutions in the Flash Authoring IDE (Flash CS3 and CS4 specifically). My Flex SDK and Flex Builder specific examples will continue to be posted on blog.flexexamples.com. There are also a few interesting examples of using the Flex SDK compiler in Flash CS4 though, so there will definitely be a bit of overlap between the two blogs.

And since I love using unordered lists, here’s what I’ve posted about in the past nine months since I first set up the blog:

For lots of information about using the new Motion Editor features in Flash CS4, check out Jen deHaan’s blog, Flashthusiast, and for more information on Flash+Flex integration from Tareq AlJaber on the Adobe Flash Authoring team, check out his blog at http://flashauthoring.blogspot.com/.

Playing animated GIFs in ActionScript 3.0

Somebody emailed me recently to tell me about loading Animated GIFs in Flex using the open-source AS3GIF library.

After playing around with it for a while I can definitely say it is pretty cool! Check it out.
