Is there anyway to have classes defined in external AS files to bring up a list of public methods when you are reffering to an instance of the class.....

so when i type;

myInstance. <- Then a drop down list would appear with my methods?

Thanks for your help,

Lucas

I did some more digging today and found this...

not exactly what you were looking for, but I am happy with it.

I investigated this myself a while back. Nobody knew if it was possible,
and poking around yielded nothing.

Hopefully there will be some sort of builtin help function that show help
docs --- I'll keep dreaming.
