[osflash] Coding on Flash CS3 sucks. Is it possible to use Flex Builder for coding?

[João Saleiro]

Hey guys,

since Flex 2 was released, I moved to FB and never looked back. But the 
current project i'm working on involves 70% design and 30% coding. It 
seemed more appropriate to me to use Flash CS3 for this project, but 
then i realized that the code panel still sucks. It seems illogical to 
me not having some tools essential to developers on Flash CS3 code panel.
Is there a solution, a plugin, or some technique to improve the 
development in Flash CS3?
Before Flex 2, i was adept of using osflash tools to improve my 
development. I used Flash 8 to create the interface and some of the 
animations, and ASDT on Eclipse with MTASC to create and inject the code 
on the SWF. Can i achieve a similar workflow with Flash CS3 and Flex 2?

Note: I know i can create SWC components in Flash CS3, and import them 
on Flex, and it works perfectly when we are building a Flex project that 
needs some crazy-looking components. But in this cas, i am creating the 
project on Flash CS3, and i need the coding tools of Flex to improve my 
workflow... Any suggestions?


Thanks,
