A simple document management solution

Question

I am creating an application for Sales where they are entering Customers data. Now they want to be able to attach customer documents: Web links, emailed manuals (PDFs, Excels, Words) and other documents. Is there anything available that can be implemented into Flex?
Thanks

There is not a simple scripting solution because a brush stroke can be scripted directly. I can think of several workarounds, two of which jacobolus has already suggested.
A new suggestion would be to try creating a path and then stoke the path with your brush. If that looks like you want it a script could then move the path 6 pixels and stroke it again. This has the advantage of not needing to create new layers and merge so should be faster. The disadvantage is the stoked path may not look the way you want.
If that doesn't work or you don't like that approach, I agree with the setting the spacing as a percentage of the brush size. All the stokes are made at one time and your done.
If you don't like that one need to do this more that once I would suggest that instead of merging down after each dupe you create an action that dupe the brush layer and moves it six pixels. The create another action that play the dupe'n'move action as many times as you need. You can also add your choice of how to merge to that last action if wanted.
