Help needed RIA question.

2004-02-17       - By Craig Earls

 Back
Josh,
   I am interested in this approach after an exruciating amount of
time spent with forms and screens. How do you have a Layer be the
controller? Can you assign a class to a layer so that it is always
available across the timeline? Are you individual classes hung off of
movieclips placed in a specific frame? The method and variable scope
really baffles me in a timeline app, can a class be assigned to a frame,
or just a movieclip in a frame? Any insights would be appreciated. I am
a C++/Java guy and am really struggling to deal with Flash
differences...
