During a customer visit in Tokyo today a Flash user requested the ability to have Flash automatically save all of his open .as files when he hits the “Test Project” button. I wrote the feature down thinking, “Geez – how’d we miss that one?” Upon return to my hotel room to fire up Flash, I discovered that we didn’t actually miss that one – we just burried it in the preferences.
Go to Edit > Preferences and select the “Editing” tab. Towards the bottom you can check the option to, “Save project files on test project or publish project”.
Phew!
BTW – It’s becoming increasingly clear to me, during our numerous customer visits in planning for 8Ball, that we don’t do a very good job of surfacing many of the very useful features and prefs in Flash. We’ll see what we can do about that in the future. Any suggestions are welcomed.
I think a couple of wizards would be helpful, because each configuration steps could be explained in details (text, screenshots of the differences).
Neither does MS. :)
I know it may sound stupid, but how about a section in the Help Docs just on the IDE itself – with some images, etc. For things like this. Could even be a small FAQ there or something.

How about an online tutorial for the features related to IDE, Flash player, AS2.0, Components and so on….

We are trying save the flash files in webpages. but it is saving or is not opening. Heavy flash files save the own system
