We’ve just posted a new After Effects Help & Support page, which consolidates a lot of resources for using After Effects, including links to the following:
- After Effects CS5 Help
- What’s new and changed in After Effects CS5
- After Effects CS5 release notes
- After Effects FAQ list
- getting-started resources, including this new overview page
Make sure to check out the links on the bottom half of the page and expand the sections on the right side of the page. There are a lot of links to valuable community resources there.

Todd,the new help system is a catastrophy regarding to navigation.Keep the tree left and open information on click in a frame at the right without leaving the navigation instead of opening a new (self) window forcing me to use the browsers “Back” button to get back to the nav-tree. AAARRRGGHH!!!!C’mon, i cannot believe that!!!What about a simple frameset consisting of two frames side by side for “Navigation” and “Content”? Load that!sigh[reply from TMGK:Thanks for the feedback, Thomas.Because this is a common design across all of the Adobe products, the best place to give feedback is the Creative Suites Community Help forum:http://forums.adobe.com/community/creativesuites/communityhelpThe folks who can explain the design and implement changes in the Help system are active on that forum. I don't think they read the comments on my blog.

Not to worry, Todd. We follow your blog.
The folks who can explain the design and implement changes in the Help system are active on that forum. I don’t think they read the comments on my blog.Are you guys not talking to each other?It’s not my business. this is your companys help system.
people might say that they follow this blog but i don`t believe that someone READS any of the entries. Neither here nor in the forum.the discussion about the CS5 Help at the forum is marked as “answered” but i see no clear answer nor i see any steps made to significant changes at the CS5 Help page from where we are discussing about.Its always about taking care about the little things in life that make big impact, but your silence makes a big impact to distress that you people care at all.Sad to know.
