Press Control+Shift+8 (Windows) or Command+Shift+8 (Macintosh).
The following symbols are used to display hidden characters.

(Deprecated with Flash Professional CC) Check syntax and punctuation
You can do a quick check of your ActionScript code without publishing the FLA file.
When you check syntax, the current script is checked. If the current script calls ActionScript classes, those classes are also checked. Other scripts
that might be in the FLA file are not checked.
For ActionScript 2.0 files, Check Syntax runs the code through the compiler, generating syntax and compiler errors.
For ActionScript 3.0 files, Check Syntax generates only syntax errors. To generate compiler errors, such as type mismatches, improper return
values, and variable or method name misspellings, you must use the Control > Test command.
