I draw inspiration by the excellent tutorial Napolux , Flex 3, Adobe AIR and the API Feedburner , which shows how to write a simple application (or widgets) using Flex 3 Adobe AIR, to show how to accomplish the same thing using Adobe Flash CS3. If you wish, and you can also use the extension for creating Adobe AIR applications. It is not necessary for the purposes of this tutorial, complete the application as an AIR executable, you can use the proposed code as a simple Flash movie to be "affixed" to your Web pages

For some developers just need to know that there is a new version of their preferred development package to run and buy the upgrade. Others, quite rightly, more calm and maintain a "pretend" to know the actual improvement in the new version before you change your habits. In the case of Adobe Flash CS3 is not much to wait, given the many changes that the package has undergone since Macromedia was acquired by Adobe.
Here, then, 10 simple, but important, reasons which, in my personal opinion, enough to convince you to upgrade to Adobe Flash CS3 . I will focus, of course, only on the things that struck me personally, this is not intended as an exhaustive list of all the many innovations introduced by the CS3 suite, only a fly to anticipate some features of CS3.

1. Installation

The installation is nice and fast, compared to previous versions. It includes, among other things, with all Adobe products (Dreamweaver CS3, Photoshop CS3 Extended, etc ...) which makes the installation / removal, and update a real pleasure.

2. Backward Compatibility

One issue often overlooked, but always taken into account in the history of Flash: The ability to manage previous versions of the product. In Flash CS3 has all the tools to manipulate it is to migrate the previous versions of our movies. We find this possibility in debugging (debugging a separate Actionscript 2.0 and Actionscript 3.0) is in the process of completing the movie. Write now Actionscript 3.0 Flash applications could be counterproductive in certain contexts. If your target site has a high traffic you may find that many users have not yet installed the latest versions of Flash Player for your browser and then would not see the movie. However, as noted above, Flash CS3 allows you to develop Flash applications mantendedo backward compatibility and therefore I do not see this as a big ostocalo nell'upgrade product.

3. GUI and IDE

The IDE Flash CS3 (like Dreamweaver CS3) has been revised to better. The panels (see picture left), often uncomfortable in previous versions, have been completely redesigned and now their use is much less invasive. In addition, the ability to minimize panels (see figure at right) is found that makes a real attractive and functional interface. When a panel is in icon mode takes up much less space and with a simple click you can open the first main panel always visible.
All the IDE, in short, has been revised including the central area with the window for editing and graphic code. Do not you point out all the changes or you'll ruin the surprise ...
