I have written a few posts about designer/developer integration for Flash/Flex teams (and a few deselopers/devigners had some great tips: Scalenine, JesterXL, etc.)… Looks like Adobe is actively trying to preempt any CS3 designer/developers difficulties, not only are the standard Flash UI components substantially easier to use/skin, now they are working to make Flash authored SWFs a full fledged citizen within a Flex project. This will allow my development team to leverage all the great design work the designers we collaborate with create!

EverythingFlex » Blog Archive » Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3 - WOW - Now this is what I am talking about… can’t wait to get my copies of CS3 and play with this. From his post:

• Ability to access Flash content natively within Flex using any Flex container
• Flash content can be used as a skin
• Ability to define events from within Flash content which can be accessed from Flex
• Bounding boxes to define the space the Flash content will occupy within the Flex application
• Flashframe labels can be accessed from Flex using state management

Very cool indeed.
