I'm using ActionScript 3. Developing in FlashDevelop. I get the following error when I try to do import fl.controls.Label;
Definition fl.controls:Label could not be found.
I'm pretty new to Flash. I had this project working without a glitch. I must have changed something for it to stop recognizing the import. Even Intellisense gives me an option to add fl.controls.Label
Controls in the fl.controls namespace are native to Flash Professional.
Although I don't use Flash Develop, this is similar to Flash Builder.
If you had Flash Pro you could create a library of components, then export a SWC library for use in your Flash Develop project. Or, reference Flash Pro's controls.
If this previously worked in your project, perhaps your compiler settings no longer link a required SWC dependency?
Not sure if this will help, but I would follow this in Flash Builder:
Flash Components:
Adding by SWC:
Add libs from Flash such as flash.swc or IK, depending on what version of the Flash IDE you have and where you installed it.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5.5\Common\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\libs\flash.swc
Adding by source folder:
The Flash components should be in a location with a path similar to the following, depending on what version of the Flash IDE you have and where you installed it.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5.5\Common\Configuration\Component Source\ActionScript 3.0\User Interface
...or...
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Common\Configuration\Component Source\ActionScript 3.0\User Interface
Default playerglobal namespace.
Default package / playerglobal.swc reference often is incorrect when editing from Flash in Flash Builder.
In .actionScriptProperties, add:
<libraryPathEntry kind="3" linkType="1" path="${FLASHPRO_APPCONFIG}/ActionScript 3.0/FP10.2/playerglobal.swc" useDefaultLinkType="false"/>
If you need general fl.* libraries, copy this swc:
/Applications/Adobe Flash CS6/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/libs/flash.swc
Into your Flash Builder project using these steps:
