JSFL dialog (2)
December 1st, 2011, under Code snippets, JSFL.
While playing with JSFL and trying to create a faster interface for my name it right.jsfl I stumbled across a very interesting function inside JSFL. There is a powerful function called fl.getDocumentDOM().xmlPanel which shows dialogs using .xml-files. Actually you could use XUL (XML User Interface Language), which kinda looks like a mix of HTML and Flex. If you need a GUI for your JSFL script, you can open a nice custom dialog using XUL.
Lights and shadows experiment (2)
November 29th, 2011, under actionscript, Code snippets.
Recently I found an interesting question on FlashFocus.nl, about creating light and shadows in a 2D environment. I started experimenting with this to see how far I could take it. I love to share the results and some insides about this fun project.
Handy Flash IDE tool: Name it right.jsfl (0)
November 28th, 2011, under JSFL.
I have created a JSFL script for those who are using the Flash IDE a lot. Renaming movieclips over a timeline with motion-tweens cost a lot of time. Assigning and replacing classes to a certain movieclip could also be done faster, and mostly name of the symbol relates to the names on stage. I have created a 3-step wizard called ‘name it right!’, to speed up your everyday workflow. This command helps you to update a layer name, base class, symbol name and instances on the timeline very fast.
Design pattern – Behaviors (7)
October 16th, 2011, under actionscript.
I recently started working at MediaMonks where they are using this interesting pattern of coding; behaviors as a class. I started playing with ‘behaviors’ myself to see how this could work for me. If you use this pattern once, you’ll wonder why you did not use it ever before 
This post will lead you through some examples and shows some benefits of using it.
Actionscript 3 Event Generator (2)
October 10th, 2011, under actionscript.
Finally I have created and finalized my Actionscript 3 Event Generator, which was buggy but now it is very nice 
As stated on twitter, if you are a flashdeveloper and use custom events in actionscript 3, you should use this tool because it helps you create custom event classes very fast.
Actionscript 3 Extended valueobject generator (0)
September 20th, 2011, under actionscript.
I created a tool to created ‘grouped’ value objects nicely and very fast. It is using private classes. I found it useful enough to share it with you, so maybe if you are in need of such a tool, you are free to use it.
