i've posted the change log here <https://www.radii8.com/blog/?p=1078>. you can now use your own site (domain) for creating projects. it connects to a wordpress instance to save the mxml documents. it also uses wordpress as a publishing platform. any document you design can be used as a "theme" for wordpress. so for example, if you make a gallery page, save it, set the document status to publish and then open the wordpress post in the browser. instead of seeing a theme page you'll see your design exported as html through the wordpress theme. you can add tokens to import wordpress the wordpress post content, title and so on.
also, i've add property inspectors for about 10 more components. this is one of the goals of the project, as sort of property explorer. the most surprising thing i found out is how awesome the TileGroup is. it has some really nice layout options. it can easily be used like a table using numerous columns or form using two columns. i also found a lot of properties on familiar components i didn't know about. i'm guessing they might have been added in in apache releases? there are numerous other changes, including some initial support for live mxml editing <https://www.radii8.com/blog/?p=1083>. using some of the falcon code Alex used in his prototype, we could support live delta updates. currently, on each change all the components are removed and then readded. in the poc you can set it to update on change or save. by default you have to use command + s or ctrl + s. with delta updates you'd only update the specific component and specific property or style. each component takes about 50 - 100ms to render in my tests. there are numerous places where the performance could be improved. right now, it's coupled with the radiate.as class. moving that will make the file size much smaller. caching more metadata calls would help as well. i really think we need to add runtime mxml support. for designers, for developers who don't want to use html and just as an alternative to not just html but to everything else out there. html frameworks are reinvented every week and they are coming up with solutions flex has had for years. if they see mxml at least they can use it as an example to base off or use flex in general.
