Extending the HYPE Framework pt.1 – Layout Classes – making a circle layout class

This is a tutorial for people looking to extend the HYPE Framework beyond its current set of abilities.

The layout class you will be constructing will be used to place display objects on the stage, in a circular layout based on a given radius.

Getting Started with Adobe Alchemy – Installing on mac os x
