The Future is Here

Whats new in Flash Pro CS6?

Finally Adobe CS6 is out… There are so many new features in the Adobe package.  I would like to go into a few new features that Flash Professional has to offer.  Honestly I have to say that some of the new features mentioned in various sites I find myself saying, “Sorry, what?”, so I hope this all makes sense.
Flash Professional features new support for generating sprite sheets for improved game development, it has the ability to deliver apps with a pre-packaged Adobe AIR captive runtime for a better user experience.  It also has a capability to export as HTML5, which means you can export animations, images and sounds, both from the stage and from the library, into clean JavaScript format. There is a new mobile simulator that lets you emulate tilting and rotating a phone (affecting the accelerometer and the screen orientation), as well as touch gestures like pinch-to-zoom.  Without going into detail Flash Professional also has come out with new debugging features.  From my research I have found that most of the new features are focused on mobile and HTML5 development except for the integration with Starling and the Stage3D library for 2D assets. 

All sounds so interesting, so now I am going to do some more research on what else Adobe CS6 has to offer.

  1. This was really interesting, I didnt know that there was so many new features with CS6 flash, and that HTML 5 thing is really nice. Seems like it might actually be worth while getting. Do you know of any good websites where I can read up a bit more about this?

  2. Hey Jackie,
    This was a good read! I think it would be a good investment to buy a copy of the new Adobe package. I really love the fact that they have now added the mobile simulator, this would be brilliant for testing!

    Thanks for the info
