Question

Can you combine AS 3.0 with AS 2.0...

Hi everyone and hope everyone is having a great weekend.

I'm working with Flash Professional C3 and now trying to upgrade myself to AS 3.0... So far so good except for some changes.

But I was curious if you can create a project using AS 3.0 mixed with some AS 2.0 (since my classes are mainly in AS 2.0 now).

Also in Pro, how do you create a script that is using AS 2.0 intellisense?  Is there a way?  Or do I just have to fully get use to AS 3.0?

There's somethings in AS 2.0 that I would really like to use until I can fully understand how 3.0 does it.

Have a great day everyone! - Stan

Intelissense that sounds a lot like a Visual Studio.

Hey Michael.

Didn't realize this was topic was actually live still. Yeah Visual Studio spoiled me there for a bit.  But now that I've gotten use to

Actionscript once more it's really quite simple.  Thankfully there are forums like this one that actually really help newbies.  The real "fun" for me

was trying to switch from AS 2.0 to AS 3.0... Especially switching to URLLoader / URLVariables.

Thanks again for helping everyone .  This forums rules.

no, absolutely not.  you can load an as2 swf (and its classes) into an as3 swf but the codes will be executing in different virtual machines.

is intellisense code completion?

Hey Kglad once more .

Thanks for the help..again.

Yeah it'd be neat to be able to switch "code completion" to AS 2.0 if I needed to.

Thanks for being so helpful . - Stan
