The Flash authoring team has released an update for Adobe Flash Professional CS4. The Flash product manager, Richard Galvan, has a detailed post on his blog: http://blogs.adobe.com/rgalvan/
The Fireworks CS4 10.0.3, and the Flash Professional CS4 10.0.2 updaters are both available from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/.
There have been some recent changes in the product management team for Fireworks. Rick Jones has moved into the Fireworks Product Marketing Manager role, and I am now the Fireworks Product Manager.
It is my pleasure, as my first of what I hope will be many Fireworks blog posts, to share some really good news – we have the Fireworks CS4 10.0.3 Updater ready and we’re targeting May 6 as our go live date. Once live, it will be available via the Adobe Update Manager and on http://www.adobe.com/support/fireworks/downloads_updaters.html where you will also find release notes with details on the bugs that this updater fixes.
This updater fixes the most common bugs that we know about in Fireworks CS4, including numerous text shifting problems, stability issues on Mac and Windows, and bugs related to pasting text from Microsoft Office applications. The team would like to thank you for your patience as we developed this updater.
I’m very excited to get started in my new role, and look forward to interacting with you in the Fireworks community.
Bruce Bowman
Fireworks Product Manager
The Fireworks team is actively working on a fix for the text-shifting bug and other bugs we know are causing real pain for Fireworks CS4 users. An update will be made available when we are confident that we have corrected the problems. I'll update this post when we're closer to having the updater available!
After quickly scanning Adobe TV, we found these sessions recorded focusing on Adobe Fireworks CS4 in Adobe Creative Suite 4.
