I've used them before, but the error just began happening recently. WTF!???!? The full code is below, if (nFall<9.5) { this.y-=10; } else if (nFall < ( -5)) { this.y-=5; } else { nFall=0; } Fion Fion Member since: Aug. 21, 2005 Offline.

But on the plus side the only problem is with auto-format not your code. If you really feel the need to use the feature on your code there are a few options you can do. 1. Make the number positive before auto-format then once auto-formatted return to negative. 2. Multiply the number by 1, the 1 has to be first though so "1*-5" to keep the negative from being the first operator after the less than symbol. 3. Use variables instead of hard-coded values. .

You can also do " 0-5 " instead. asdfg chronicADRENLIN chronicADRENLIN Member since: Dec. 5, 2009 Offline.

// ' or block comments ' /* ... */ ' are tripping up the Auto Formattor, which returns this error: ' Error with autoformat near line: }'. Comments before package block don't cause an error. When I remove comments within package block, Auto format works correctly. View 2 Replies Similar Posts: Professional :: Cannot Check Syntax Or Auto Format & Trace("x"); Outputs Nothing? Oct 8, 2010 I cannot Check Syntax of AS3 (error sound, not the happy 'ding' syntax checked http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1177143 sound), nor does the IDE Auto Format anything, even valid code. trace("x"); does nothing (except throw the 'error in your syntax' message). There is nothing displayed in the Compiler Errors pane or in the Output pane. Document Classes fail to work and fail to fail, when they are purposely mis-coded. Class files also cannot Check Syntax or Auto http://flash.bigresource.com/AS3-Professional-Auto-Format-not-recognizing-comments-aSJdzfwAb.html Format or output anything with trace("x"). AS2 files behave normally, with all the above items working. I had the trial version of CS5 running fine. It expired. I bought the Full Version Upgrade which worked fine. Yesterday, the as3 script environment fails to check syntax, fails to auto format and does not send any trace statements to the output window. I have removed the application & re-installed and updated, but nothing has fixed this yet. AS3 code envorinment is seriously messed up. I will update everything tonight.

I only experience this stupid bug on some lines of code and not others, but the thing is, I dont know how to replicate it fully. It seems to happen the autoformat after you correct a "Error with Autoformat near line :x". Anyone else as3 error with has a similar experience with this stupid bracket bug? If you haven't, heres a prevention tip: replace expressions in brackets with a coercion function so they won't get their brackets deleted, like: ActionScript Code: (startx -endx) becomes Number(startx - endx) Good day!

Can't remember when I used the auto-format option last time explicitly ( maybe around 3 years ago in Flex Builder and even then only because someone has sent me a totally messed up piece of something that was simply not readable by humans without formatting ). __________________ Titus M.
