KapIT release in it lab area some tools among which we find:

• KapInspect

KapInspect is the flex equivalent of the famous Firebug console. Activated on a simple click it allows to inspect all the flex components of the page, to show and to modify their properties.

• Cairngorm console et purMVC console
  

Those consoles allow to show at runtime the various components of the framework.

The integration is quite simple. After setting the .swc component in the project classpath, you just have to add the good tag in your mxml file.

For example :

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" xmlns:kapit="fr.kapit.*"> ... <kapit:KapInspect/> </mx:Application>

Then to open the console just make a Ctrl+Alt+Click in the flash stage. Notice that you can use the various consoles simultaneously
