Full source available. Use of TileList with drop-in ItemRenderer. Parallels for animation and the search text field has a real time “web 2.0″ reflection. A little bit of Flash CS3 to Flex communication going on here too.

This application should probably be broken down in terms of architecture. Refactoring this to PureMVC or Cairngorm would be a fun project. Perhaps after the remaining API examples have been completed.

The Flash CS3 based SWF is set to publish for Flash Player 9 and uses ActionScript 3.0. The SWF is loaded into Flex using a SWFLoader control. Once it is loaded functions on the timeline of the loaded SWF can be called from functions in the Flex project.

This is something I have wanted to look into for a while now. I just got the chance last night while working on the Odeo API example. Using this technique really starts to blur the lines between Flex and Flash CS3. I think this approach also opens the door to more opportunities for interesting UI development.

View example here.
