Hi all,  
OK,  
I can put AS code in the timeline .  
I can put in DocumentClass .  
I can put in Publish -\> AS 3.0 -\>settings .  
I can put Linkage property .

Why ? Is there some restrictions ? Where to put Custom class ? Do I need syntax \>package\<on every code ?

Thanks advance .

Make custom classes in separate .as files.

Alright buddy, I think this might help you.

When you create a symbol in the library go into its “Linkage” and change its “Class” to the path of where the class file is located relative to the fla. Separate each directory with a “.”

Once that is good, your class file should have a

package class.path.similar.to.the.one.in.the.library(without the actual class name)  
public class ClassName() extends MovieClip  
public function ClassName():void{  
}  
}  
}

mrskribbs, is the use of Main() and ClassName() the same thing ? i notice there are a lot of Main() functions in peoples flex code.
