File Size Watcher In Flash CS5

I just installed my Master Collection last night, and as I was running through a few of the new features in Flash CS5, I thought it best to show you that there is now file size watching. (look, that’s what I call it)

Check it out:

So, in the screenshot above I’ve first put a simple shape on the stage and saved it. Then I added some text and saved it. Then, I added a Flash Playback Component and even included the source of the file. As you see, after I saved it for the 3rd time, my file increased significantly. Flash has applied a yellow warning sign to let me know that the file has increased. Really cool!

I’m also very stoked about the file snippets panel which not only has common AS3 snippets, but also allows for creation of custom snippets.
