Flash Develop 3 is one of those tools that really shouldn’t exist if Adobe had done their job right with the code editor in Flash. The Flash code editor is absolutely HORRID… no refactoring, almost no code hinting, poor highlighting, no visual class hierarchy, and the list goes on. Here is where Flash Develop comes to the rescue and solves all these problems. The only minor issue I have with Flash Develop is that it can be a hassle to get into a comfortable track of compiling out large Flash applications as its a little janky rigging it to the Flash compiler. On the up side, did I mention it’s free!
Well today Flash Develop 3 Beta8 is released and includes some of the following new features:
GUI and ActionScript:
* New “fullscreen” editor mode
* New common GUI for AS2Api and ASDoc
* SWF exploration shows the frame where definitions are imported
* Fine tuned code completion
* Dynamic syntax highlighting: custom classes get colored like flash classes (MovieClip, Event, etc)
* Completion for package-level declarations and Flash 10’s Vector. type
* Go To Declaration (F4) with SWC classes display a generated pseudo-class
* Improved generators
