about code windows

lectrospin · 08-15-2007, 12:53 PM

When i'm working in flash, i usually find myself coding in an as file and in a frame of a fla. One of the things i find annoying about the flash interface is that the AS code is displayed in the main window and the frame code in the actions panel, so i'm constantly switching between the two places and having to resize the panel everytime i switch. Is there anyway to change this so i can easily switch between them in the same place?

There's really not a way to do what you're describing. Though, depending on the amount of code that you're placing in the frame, you could move that code to a separate .as file, and #include it into your frame. That way, you'll be able to use the larger file view for editing the code, instead of the Actions Panel.
