Of course, CS5 has its share of new things, and we will introduced them in other tutorials at some point. Here is a short list of new features.
- Better looping support in motion tweens. E.g. ctrl-select first keyframe, then ALT-drag to right after the tween span, then inverse keyframes with the right click menu)
- Physic engine additions to inverse kinematics, e.g. spring functions
- Support for IPhone applications (not sure that it works, since Apple doesn't like other's developing environments)
- Much better text support
- Code snippets (helps beginners to write AS3 code).
- XML-based source code: Either compressed *.fla files or *.xfl folders.
- Easier management of cue points in videos (directly in CS5)
- Better deco brushes, e.g. you now can easily draw a tree...
