Main menu gives access to all Flash Decompiler Trillix features and options. Main Menu is standard for all Mac products:

The menu items are:
1. Flash Decompiler Trillix:

 

  • About Flash Decompiler Trillix 


This menu option allows to:
1. get information about the version and build of your copy of Flash Decompiler Trillix;
1. get information about the license type.

  • Preferences

1. AS viewer


In this dialog you may customize both the settings of Flash Decompiler Action Scripts preview mode and SWF conversion. Choose how to view Action Scripts:

1. Use tabs

This checkbox lets you decide whether to use either tabulation character or space for indentation in ActionScripts.

2. Indent size

Define size for indents.

3. Braces at new line

This option defines where to place curly brackets on new line (the so-called new C style) or to use old coding style (Kernigan & Ritchie).

4. Use getProperty/setProperty

Use old-style syntax to object properties (getProperty and setProperty built-in functions).

5. Braces around single statement

This option defines whether the single statements should be encapsulated into braces.

6. Recover arguments names

Starting from Adobe Flash Player 6.0 in order to improve performance the so-called registers were added to ActionScript virtual machine structure. As the result, information about some variables' names is lost while file publishing. 

Flash Decompiler for Mac uses a special heuristic algorithm to restore the binding between variables and registers (symbolic information).

7. Decode all classes as dynamic

This checkbox enables all AS 2.0 classes decoding as dynamic. Dynamic class makes possible to add properties and methods at runtime, while such action for non-dynamic class will lead to compilation error. The problem is that in a SWF file all classes are considered dynamic.

In the window to the right you'll see the example of Action Script and the changes applied.
 

2. Components


This dialog enlists the Flash components that Flash Decompiler is aware of, and which ones will be converted correctly. The button "Update" will be active and Flash components will be available for viewing if you have Adobe Flash version not lesser than 7 installed on your PC.

If you use third-party components and have them on your hard-drive, add them using "Add components" button. Thus, Flash Decompiler will see them, and they, along with standard components, will be converted correctly.

3. Thumbs



Disable thumbnails generation in Thumbnails bar for certain object types in order not to slow down Flash Decompiler performance, especially if there are many items in object groups.
