New Snippets Panel Extension for Flash CS3!


I just polished off my second panel extension for Flash CS3. Thissnippets panel allows you to store code snippets that can easily be copied to the clipboard for easy insertion into the Actions panel. There currently is no editor for the snippets so you are left to edit an XML file in the same folder as the panel. You can click the pencil icon to get the path to the XML file though. I have included some example snippets with the extension.
Follow the steps below to try it out:
  1. Download and install the Snippets extension. (Right-click and choose Save Link As or similar)
  2. Open or restart Flash and choose Snippets from the Window > Other Panels menu.
  3. Select a snippet and then press the Copy to Clipboard button.
  4. Paste it into the Actions panel.
Let me know if you find any bugs with it. You can also leave a comment here if you think you have an idea how to make it better.
Thanks,
