Re: FLASH: FlashForward review

[Cheri Harder]

Since it is Saturday night, and traffic is very light, could one of you that

might have the time, kind of review the "widgets" concept?  I got the

impression it was a cross between the "library" of buttons, etc.,  available

in F4 and the "plug 'n play" concept that John C. used for some of his

"customizable" functionality.



Yes?  Or am I way off?  I have been dreaming that I could find the time to

gather up all/some of the various and assundry tutorials and open-fla-stuff

I've found and put them into some kind of organized "library" - like a math

one, a string manipulator, a "follow the mouse", a library of text

validation routines (date, e-mail) etc etc...but just can't seem to get

myself that organized...


Secondly, the idea of palettes and collapsible window-thingies scares the

beejeebers outa me, Tom!  I have NO experience with those sorts of things,

and when I download a demo here & there of programs with those sorts of

interfaces, I am sorely intimidated.  The sheer numbers of available tools,

off & on, open & closed, brushes, pencils, buckets and erasers...aargh!

Please tell me that when I upgrade to Flash5 that I will still be able to

find things....
