Flex 3 Beta 2 - Design Tools + Learning Flex + JSEclipse + Constraints
0 Comments Published Thursday, September 27, 2007 at 6:00 AM .The first changes target the workflow and UI for skinning and styling in Flex Builder and provide UI for the new constraint types in the Flex Framework. The design view has come a long way from the last version and we can now set constraints on anything easily.
We wanted to make it easier to allow new developers to learn Flex. We took a deep look at how the documentation and getting started examples were written and we made some changes. The result is a shift that makes Flex more discoverable and easier to explore. I certainly do not know all the classes in the Flex Framework and use the documentation and examples when there are features I do not understand. As I have found, this change makes finding things easier. Also you will find a new search toolset
We also integrated JSEclipse into Flex Builder as an installation option. Special thanks to the Romania Team for this great addition to Flex Builder and Eclipse.
As you will find these refinements really assist in development. Flex is easier to learn and easier to control from a design perspective.
