My main use for flash is file compression. It's very useful even for the simplest thing like a single jpg. If you take a jpg and import it into flash, set publishing quality to high, publish and...

I've been reading through all the pages in this thread(17 now isn't it) and I've seen alot of wish's for flash to support 3d and text effects. Based on this and a couple of annoyances and other...

They do have the ability to resize text boxes. Just click on the text tool and then click(don't drag) anywhere on the screen and type. I agree with the shadow for sure.

trace(array[x]);

This should print out what ever...

I'm not sure this will help but I'm currently working on some code that is going to use swap depth. The basic idea of the code is below:
