WordPress upgraded again

Site upgraded πŸ™‚ I’ll get to the other sites I host later this weekend (adds to ever growing never shrinking todo list)

Unfortunately it didn’t include an update for fp10. Oh well, I’ll just have to cope without multiupload for a little bit longer.

Using the flex sdk for codehinting in flash develop

By default flash develop projects use an instrinsic set of classes for all the code completion of the flex sdk. I’ve been getting more indepth with the code behind components in flex and wanted to be able to press f4 and have the code appear instead of the instrinsic class.

This is really easy to do…
Go Project -> properties and to the compiler options tab.
Expand the Intrisic Libraries and change it to the frameworks\projects\framework\src folder of where you have your flex sdk.

Now back to trying to work out how components do their accessibility…

Crabby

That’s how I felt tonight, well honestly how I’ve been feeling a lot this week. Anyway with some of the things I ‘had’ to do out of the way, I decided to take the night off and do some sewing. I tried to continue some of the applique work but my concentration levels were just not high enough. I then decided that I wanted to make a soft toy lorikeet (random thought) and after drawing up a pattern, I realised I didn’t have any bright green or yellow fleece. So I decided to make a crab since I had red fleece.

Here is the final result.

He is pretty rushed as tonight I didn’t focus on quality but just wanted to create.
I made up the pattern and went for it. Those little feet take forever to turn the right way around!

Andrew likes his new crab and I’m happy I got to spend a few hours being creative.
