The purpose of showing this is two fold. One is to show difference in the properties and methods exposed by the Push Button component in V1 and V2. Second is to show case how easy and useful it is to use my ActionScript() function to see what’s inside a component.

I just dragged and dropped a push button on stage and named it as “_btn” then used the following code to trace.

#include "toString.as"
//
trace(ActionScript(_btn,"Button_v1"));
// use trace(ActionScript(_btn,"Button_v2")); for V2 button

 

Here is the result!
