Flash MX 2004 Sucks 2004-03-04 - By Kevin Pojman
Back
I totally agree with Jesse. I have been using Flash for 4 years and
doing fine. I am not an AS expert nor a fast typer. Most of us are
inbetween. I think the behaviors are more for AS beginners. Eliminating
the normal mode puts a huge time constraint on developing AS at least
for me. I don't understand this mentality when other Macromedia
products such as Dreamweaver and Fireworks have been become more and
more WSYWIG in their approach to coding.
