    "Worsening interface from version to version"

    by drabelais on May 19, 2009

    Pros: Well established vectorial standard. Still some nice legacy features.

    Cons: Very few improvements since Flash 4. But once again, in CS4, Adobe actually worsens the program interface as Microsoft did with Office 2007 unavoidable ribbons.

    Summary: What is it with those large software makers who turn their back on their loyal users and constantly change the keyboard shortcuts, the menu structure, as if one were supposed to relearn every time a less efficient way to get things done. For instance, why oh why would you remove the the "close window" keyboard shortcut ctrl-F4 in Flash CS4. Whether Adobe likes it or not, regardless of whether the program is used in Apple, in Windows, the standard is Ctrl-F4. It's just the way it is. Shame on those programmers who work a whole year to remove efficiency away in the silliest insidious ways. I am uninstalling CS4 and I am returning to CS3. I wasted $700.
