I'm new to adobe air applications. In WPF and Silverlight I had a tool that would allow me to see components of a view at runtime similar to developer tools in a browser html site. Is anyone aware of something similar for an adobe air application using mxml for views?
Not exactly sure if this is what you're looking for, but look into Monster Debugger
It'll give you a list of all DisplayObjects in your AIR application, as well as traces and other stuff. you can also change values on the fly.
