I think you mean methods. (functions inside a class). Not in the AS3: Main, but there was an excellent one
here. It thought it was great. I'm sure there are others.

You mean this? It's in the "Other Useful Links" under the name of "AS2.0 Migration".

AS3: Keyboard Events for Newbies

Because we should always remember to help the newbies, we've all been one at one point ^_^.

Try this.["root"]["VariableNameLewl"]
Should work! ^^

Using dynamic access changes nothing.
The 'DisplayObject.root' property is there, or you can use a static method.

Does anybody wanna make a displacementMapFilter tutorial? I really can't figure it out =P..

I'm having some problems with accessing a var. I started a thread about this. Could somebody help me out, and please in the thread and not in AS3: main, to keep chit-chat down.

AS3 metadata tags. Awesome.

Ok, I'm sorry, as a deed to compensate my bad deeds I made a very simple tutorial on displaying variables in textbox

It's possible that I've made a mistake, if so leave a comment in that thread or PM me.

I just wrote a tutorial on dragging objects in AS3

Also I was wondering, should I write a tutorial for basics of AS3, so how EventListeners work and other things?

Hey guys

My newest tutorial AS3: Counter has just been posted =D

I made another AS3 thread, it's about adding external images. Sadly the layout looks a bit messed up (of the thread).

would someone try making a tutorial about creating classes?

I think someone need's to post all of the tutorials like Denvish did, so basically this thread needs a Denvish stand-in. I hate having to read every post for tutorials :P

It's actually not that hard. Just put the class into another file (named after the class) inside of a package{} block, and then you should be able to access it like normal. If you want to know more about specifics of classes, you can always look up an AS2 OOP tutorial - they haven't changed much in basic structure

You mean that there's a list of all the tutorials like on page 2? I'll maybe do that

You should read the AS3: OOP thread. It's about Object Orientated Programing, basically any language using class files is an OOP

Just posting this so that I can post the new list of tuts on a new page ^_^.

:sorry if I counted incorrectly =p
