Reader Question: "Does Flash CS4 bring a new version of ActionScripting?"

Sunday November 9, 2008
Reader Beth writes in with the following question:
"I had a heck of a time adapting to ActionScript 3.0 after using 2.0 for a loooong time. Now Flash CS4 is out, and I don't know if I even want to try it if it means more changes. What am I looking at now? AS 4.0, or is it still 3.0?"
Beth, you'll be relieved to know that a new version of AS hasn't rolled out with CS4. CS4 keeps AS 3.0's syntax and functionality, but expands on it with a few enhancements. Some have criticized the AS interface in CS4, but in the end it comes down to personal preferences as far as GUI functionality. If you could adapt to CS3, you should be just fine wading into the waters of CS4.
