Black Dot Cinema - A Flex Demo, Phase 3

This is part four in a series. You can read the rest of the posts here, here and here.

Phase three of the application is here.

Its amazing what a bit of outside input can add to these experiments. After a long conversation with Chris Power at Six Degrees Creative we removed the pop up window mechanism of the last version and redesigned the layout. Chris, if he has the time, may help steer this baby to completion design wise.

The other advance is my custom scrolling label to display text that doesn't fit. Flex has Tool tips that appear but I love this functionality on the iPod and wanted to try to recreate it in Flex. Extending the existing label control to add the functionality I wanted was not to hard at all.

I will post the code for my ScrollingLabel component soon.
