Classpublic final class SetterUtils

The SetterUtils class is a singleton that has utility methods that decrease amount of code you have to write for setting the same properties on multiple objects.

All methods can be used in two ways.


Example
Two uses for each method: 
 
  var su:SetterUtils=SetterUtils.gi();
  
  var mc1,mc2,mc3:MovieClip;
  var mcref:Array=[mc1,mc2,mc3];
  
  su.visible(true,mc1,mc2,mc3); //rest style.
  
  //array style - this is nice when you want to group
  //display objects to you can quickly toggle a property.
  su.visible(false,mcref);

There are a ton of other methods in here that offer the same benefts.
