Hi,

Saw this at Flex Camp Orange County, but have been away from Flex since. Have you released any code yet?

Cheers,
Colin

Yes, the Swapper has some sensitivities to dragging and the Zoomer has some z-oder and alph issues with Panels.
While the code is reasonably stable, it has not been completely bug-proofed nor optimized for production release. The mx.effects.* Move and Resize classes should be replaced with the Tweener class. And more…

When this code is released as open-source, it is my hope that the community will contribute enhancements and new behavior components for us all to share.

Thomas, Kudos on an awesome job. I cannot wait to get my hands on this. What a fantastic time saver and way to rapidly integrate new behaviors into an app! Let me know when it's available.

Hey Thomas, I've been thinking along exactly the same lines lately! I wish I could have made it to CA for that presentation now. I've just released Bifff - A framework that focuses on the injection part of Behavior Injection. It will work perfectly together with what you are doing! It allows you to hook behaviors up to views with a full css syntax. I haven't really been working on the behavior part much at all, just on the injection, but there is/will be a tag you can use to connect behavior classes like the ones you are releasing to any matched view. Visit the following for examples of what I'm talking about.
