Flex code region?

Question

Is there a way in flex (Flash Builder 4) to make regions like in c#, to group a part of the code allowing us to collapse it and see through our project more easily?

In c# it's like:

#region example

// my functions I want to group

#endregion

Note that [apparently](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2616551) FlashDevelop supports it. — BlueRaja - Danny Pflughoeft, Apr 24 '13 at 19:49

Not that I have seen. I have only found comment and function collapsing.

For sure, hopefully as the IDE develops this will get added in – Jason Apr 08 '10 at 12:25

No, you basically have to use comments. I generally do something like

// *********************** THIS REGION IS FOR ... *************************

the only thing I want to use regions for collapsing, not for better understanding of the code – Biroka Apr 08 '10 at 12:13

Actually, there is a way you can do this, at least in Flex Builder 4.5. I've had success using multiple <fx:Script> tags. You can add a  comment above the tag, and just collapse the entire tag. Not exactly as good as proper code regions, but it works pretty well.

This only works inside mxml files. Large project most often do not have actionscript in script tags in mxml. So this isn't a great solution. – keyle Jan 23 '12 at 01:39
