- Flash on the iPhone (Not the Player, but using Flash to build iPhone apps) $$$
- The Stage is now the Flash Player running??!!
- Text (more properties, text underlining, multi-language, ligatures, text flow w/ images, Font Embedding support increased)
- inDesign & Flash support
- ActionScript editor 100% better
- SWF history in properties panel
- code snippets panel (click & apply)
- actionscript panel (better code completion, custom class introspection, Flash & Flash Builder options for coding)
- File > Save As > “.fla” as XML (uncompressed, good for global changes, separate work-flows)
- Inverse Kinematics (Armatures) (new features, spring & damping)
- Deco Tool (more brushes) & create your own brushes using ExtendScript, Deco timeline animation
