New FvAsWing component :: FvPaperReader

Hi all, a new component has just been added to FvAsWing framework.

The FvPaperReader allow you to load, display and control Adobe FlashPaper document in your application.

FvPaperReader features :

Full document control using FlashPaper embeded controls or FvPaperReader menubar
Document playlist
Server browsing folder for new document ( optional )
Drag'n Drop support between reader and the list
Keyboard shortcut support ( FlashPaper control and Reader component control too )
Localisation API is connected to allow multi language support

Creation is really simple, we just have to create FvPaperReader instance and open it.
We can choose, before opening, to let the user browsing the server or not.

var reader : FvPaperReader = new FvPaperReader();
reader.enableExternalFile( true );

You can specify documents availables at application startup ( or adding them lately ) using the addDocument() method.
They will be added into the document playlist.

reader.addDocument( new FvPaperItem( "assets/paperdoc.swf", "myTitle" ) );
reader.addDocument( new FvPaperItem( "assets/code.swf") );
reader.addDocument( new FvPaperItem( "assets/graphicLibbrary.swf", "Invalid doc" ) );

FvPaperReader broadcast some events :

onLoadInit
onLoadProgress
onTimeOut
onError

onPageChanged
onZoomChanged
onSelection
onToolChanged
onEnableScrolling
onVisibleAreaChanged
