I.m using flash cs5.5 for programing as3 flash games recently i heard that cs5.5 support autocomplete feature and i even found how to toggle it on at (tools->show code hint) but nothing seems to work does anyone have an idea why?
I've found the Flash CS5.5 autocomplete spotty at best. It seems to only work when:
Editing ActionScript on a keyframe when the classes are imported earlier on the frame and/or in the default namespace
You are editing an AS3 class file that is a linkage to a MovieClip or document in an FLA file that is also open
Seconded, FlashDevelop is indeed a great IDE, but Windows only. I recently switched to FlashBuilder (using a Mac now). Both have robust autocomplete functionality and are much better suited to writing applications than Flash.
