[GEM] “Hidden” buttons in the library panel
I was just in a bug review meeting and discovered three buttons in the library panel that I never realized were there. The first button re-sorts the library alphabetically, the second automatically expands the width of the library to show all columns, and the third narrows the width of the library.
Here’s a picture.

Go figure…

I think many of us get in the habit of using Flash from when we first learned it and when new versions are released, we never explore the UI for advancements.
It was just about two months ago that I ran across “edit multiple frames” button near the onion-skinning buttons.
Good tip though on the library buttons. Probably time someone created a blog for “little things you didn’t know you could do in Flash”..

I’ve enjoyed the ’show all columns’ feature a lot. It’s especially handy when looking at the export options.
