  Use Adobe Device Central to plan, preview, and test content for a wide array of mobile and consumer devices.
• Cross-platform support
  Work on your operating system of choice: Mac OS or Windows.
• Symbol rasterization and better performance
  Use new tooling options, on-stage symbol rasterization, and the Property Inspector to improve CPU, battery, and rendering performance on mobile devices.
• Integration with CS Live online services
  Work more efficiently through integration with Adobe CS Live online services 1, 2, including Acrobat.com, Adobe CS Review, and SiteCatalyst NetAverages.
• Incremental compilation
  Use asset caching to reduce the compile time of documents that use embedded fonts and sound files, and deploy rich content faster.
• Auto-save and file recovery
  Ensure consistency and integrity of your files, even after computer crashes or power outages.

Design with expression - Clearly communicate your creative vision and exceed expectations with typographic precision, layout fidelity, and expressive motion-editing capabilities in Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5 software.

• Advanced drawing tools
  Design artwork precisely and efficiently with smart shapes and powerful design tools.
• Industry-leading animation tools
  Create and edit motion tweens using the Timeline and Motion Editor, and use inverse kinematics to create natural motion for character animation.
• Professional video tools
  Easily incorporate video into your projects, and convert video clips efficiently with the included Adobe Media Encoder application.
• Filter and Blend effects
  Add interesting visual effects to text, buttons, and movie clips to create expressive content.
• Object-based animation
  Gain control over individual animation attributes, and apply tweens directly to objects instead of to keyframes. Easily make changes to motion with Bezier handles.
• 3D transformation
  Animate 2D objects through 3D space with exciting new 3D translation and rotation tools, which allow you to animate along the x, y, and z axes. Apply local or global transformations to any object.
• Spring for the Bone tool
  Add expressive, lifelike animation properties --like spring and bounce --with motion attributes for the Bone tool. An improved inverse kinematics engine provides more realistic and complex physics movements within a simple, familiar interface.
• Deco drawing brushes
  Add advanced animation effects with a comprehensive set of brushes for the Deco tool. Quickly create movement for particle phenomena like clouds or rain, and draw stylized lines or patterns with multiple objects.
• Easy video integration
  Streamline video embedding and encoding processes with on-stage video scrubbing and the cue points property inspector. See and play back FLV components directly on the stage.
• Advanced text engine
  Get global bidirectional language support and advanced print-quality typography APIs via the Text Layout Framework. Format text in columns and maintain layout with greater fidelity when importing content from other Adobe products.
• Inverse kinematics pinning support
  Lock inverse kinematics bones to the stage and set stage level movement restrictions to selected bones. Create multiple spans per layer, and define more complex movement of armatures, such as walk cycles.
• Unified Creative Suite interface
  Boost your efficiency with intuitive panel docking and spring-loaded behaviors that streamline your interaction with tools throughout the Adobe Creative Suite editions.
• Creative Suite integration
  Perform roundtrip edits of bitmap images with Adobe Photoshop CS5, import FLA files directly from Adobe InDesign CS5.5, and integrate closely with Adobe Flash Builder 4.5.
• Customer-inspired enhancements
  Benefit from numerous user-requested improvements, including improved controls for the Text Layout Framework.

Write code quickly and easily - Quickly and efficiently write code with powerful authoring tools and integration with Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 software. Visually inject extensible code snippets optimized for mobile.

• ActionScript editor
  Speed up development with the built-in ActionScript editor that features custom class code hinting and code completion. Quickly grasp the fundamentals of ActionScript, and efficiently reference your own or external code libraries.
• Seamless mobile testing
  Perform source-level debugging on Adobe AIR enabled devices that are connected with a USB cable, running content directly on the device.
• XML-based FLA source files
  Collaborate on projects more easily with a new XML-based implementation of the FLA file format. Uncompressed projects appear and act like folders, allowing you to quickly manage and modify assets such as images.
• Code Snippets panel
  Speed up project completion by using convenient prewritten code snippets for common actions, animation, multitouch gestures, and more. Also discover an easier way to learn the ActionScript 3.0 language.
• Enhanced code snippets handling
  Use the new pick whip to preview and visually add more than 20 new code snippets, including ones for creating mobile and AIR applications, use of the accelerometer, and multitouch gestures.
• Flash Builder integration
  Work more closely with developers who can use your Flash project files with Flash Builder to test, debug, and publish your content more efficiently.
