up to my .as in code
Zinc...hmmm...let me tell you a secret about my copy of Zinc. Even in beta.....AIR rendered it useless to me.
Enough of that...Favorites folder?...sure can.....

rendered useless? you mean you have no need for zinc anymore?
thanks for that screenshot, so I know now its possible! , but can you post some code or point me to some code that does that? or is it something really simple to do with AIR?

Play with that Scrappy example (drag in/ drag out) and you may feel the way I do

Yeah, that was populated with a FileSystemList component simply pointing to the Favorites directory as the parent of the list. You can target directories and files just like Zinc and I don't have to use one of the components if I don't want to (I just did there because it was quick) and can target any file(s) or directories and maniupulate them in many ways irregardless of a component. The AIR developers guide explains better than I can (with examples) how they handle the file system.

What are we talking here, Flex builder of Flash CS3 to create the above example? because I would much rather use Flash.
