18. Conclusion

In this beast of a tutorial, you have seen how to use all of the 21 UI Components that come with Flash MX 2004 and Flash MX 2004 Professional.

Whenever possible, I tried to go into detail about real-world uses of the tutorials. Some of the components are very complex indeed and covering all of their properties and methods in detail would take up a good-size book in itself. In these cases, I chose to cover the most important methods and most common uses of the components. Whenever possible, I also tried to highlight pitfalls, gotchas and bugs and suggest workarounds.

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and I hope it had helped you to get up to speed with the Macromedia Version 2 Component Architecture.
