Flash CS4 is loaded with new features and improvements. The animation tools function very similarly to those of After Effects, where keyframes are automatically created for you and each property (i.e. heigt, alpha, x, y, etc) has its own keyframes that you can edit separately. This allows much better control from the timeline, but will take some getting used to for long time flashers. Two other huge advancements are the built-in 3D translation and rotation functions and the the built-in inverse kinematics using the new bone tool. Also, look forward to a better user interface and a useful project panel. Take a tour of the new Flash with this video: http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=87
