I’ve made some changes to the tree, which add some more functionality and make it even more (re-)usable.

IKTree now has:

• Caching / Recycling of children, which reduce the ‘flickering’
• Label & IconFunctions
• Object access for labelfields. You can now access objects in the tree for the labelfield. For instance, you can set ‘obj.label’ as labelField. It will then set the label as data[obj][label].
• Doubleclick support
• Added some styles (indicatorThickness & indicatorColor)

It has some cool features like syntax highlighting, the ability to save your expressions, and calling the replace, math, search and exec functions of the AS3 regexp engine.

The new version brings live matching and result highlighting

With Live Matching turned on, ASRET evaluates the expression every time the expression, the string to match or one of the flags is changed. You can find ASRET here.
