If you use this in combination with alt-ARROW KEY you have a nifty way of moving blocks of code around. By default Shift LEFT & RIGHT do not have keys assigned.

This is where I got stuck, so don’t panic. I didn’t realize you must drag it down towards the bottom of the window, until you see a line appear across the editor, then let go… Hence, my insane preamble the day before.

I was hoping there might be away to create a split screen for the code window?

That's simple and brilliant. Can't believe I didn't think of that! Love the idea that you create different perspectives for when you’re in Duel monitor mode. That’s simple and brilliant.

Do you know where the 'Dual' perspectives are saved, so they can be copied to other workspaces? Hey doug,

Really like your setup, only problem is that it’s workspace-specific.
Do you know where the ‘Dual’ perspectives are saved, so they can be copied to other workspaces?

It doesn't seem like it would make that big a difference but it can give you 33% more vert. space on a regular 4:3 monitor!

This is on my main dev machine, a PC. I sometimes open a couple of shell windows on my networked Mac to edit source files in vi, for certain tasks that vi handles better than the code editor in Flex Builder. Of course FB notices those file updates and auto-builds if that is turned on. I'd REALLY like it if I could open the same project directory with FB on the Mac without the two of them fighting over who's in charge!
