Flex Converter: Currency, Weight, Temperature...

I've written a little Flex app that handles converting between a variety of formats:
  • Currency (using the www.webservicex.net Currency Convertor service)

  • Weight (Pounds/KG)

  • Distance (Kilometers/Miles)

  • Temperature (°C/°F)

  • Pace (minutes per km/mile)

  • Baking measurements (tablespoons, teaspoons, cups, ml)


  • The currency conversion can be quite slow because it is using the free web service mentioned above. All the other conversions are simply mathematical.

    See the example below (right click to view source):
