| I knew something was wrong with this book when I was only on pg 14. It showed an image of the toolbar and some of the tools on it had transversed label names. Obviously the editors and the proofreaderf and the writers were out on a long lunch when that happened. In actionscipting, the coding depends on your the attention to detail. The spacing, the uppercase vs lowercase. Anyway, point being. Some of the test book lessons did not match up with the final lessons on the cd rom. Some code was out of it's place, the book indicated it went in the end, when in reality it went in the middle and I also noticed that their spacing in various methods and functions rendered the code non-functionable. On the disk, the spacing was VERY different. I am an art director who justw anted to brush up on action scrippting during my vacation (yes my vacation). I swear I am considering sending a bill for my wasted time and frustration to Jobe and Danny. I am livid. THANK GOD ADOBE BOUGHT OUT FLASH. Macromedia (Jobe and Danny that means you) should not be allowed to write books ever again. The only happy ending to this story is that I can possibly write this book off at tax time and get my money back. Very disapointed and frustrated. |
