Hi Jeffry!
Saw your commit of the FXGImage!
Just out of curiosity (and checking my own understanding of FXG), when should I
use the FXGImage?
I really built it as a helper class. I did know it was usable
directly in MXML, but it's been a while since I've tried that. I do not
remember what limitations I Ran into with that approach. I didn't know
it was turned into a SpriteVisualElement. I had no idea you could just
create an FXG asset directly in ActionScript as a SpriteVisualElement.
If it always worked like that; I completely missed it.
In theory the same class I provided could be used to encapsulate
library elements from a Flash Pro SWF; but I haven't tested that approach.
The extra properties I have on the class (xOffset, yOffset,
heightIncrement, and widthIncrement) actually exist because of problems
I had with Flash Pro animations showing up in the wrong locations on
different DPIs in mobile applications. This was a quick way to tweak
the positioning.
