Anyone know when or which update broke how event sounds play in Flash? I have some old stuff that used to work just fine, and now the sounds don't play correctly or not at all. I figure it had to be in one of the recent Adobe 10.x Flash player updates. This bug has to affect a lot of pages that have UIs or games made in older versions of the Flash authoring tool.
Surely I can't be the only person to notice this.

PMG Messiah:Studio - nice limited time offer
I figure there's a rare few that may read this blog, so I have some new news.
There's a pretty tight deal for a very limited time where you may be able to get a $1100 suite of graphics software for $40. Pretty much it's professional quality rigging and animation software that various studios use in their production pipeline.
Oh, and if $40 is still too much you can get the "light" $540 software for $10.
And here's the link:

And for some reason if you don't see the green bar (which was hovering at 75% at the time of this post), you may be too late.

Menus: Dropdown vs Pulldown explained
I was looking for some reference to clarify this issue on the web, and what do I see in the first couple hits on google? Bad information on the topic. It seems that a lot of sites say there is no difference between dropdown and pulldown menus. Guess what? THEY'RE WRONG!
Here's the difference:
Dropdown menu: When you click on the menu header to access the menu, the menu stays on the screen until a selection is made. Note that clicking outside the box also counts as a "selection".
Pulldown menu: You have to hold the mouse button down to access the menu. If you release the mouse button or drag off the menu, the menu goes away. In other words a PULLdown menu is a DRAGdown menu, but it is not a DROPdown menu!
A subtle difference I'm sure, but it's quite a big one in regards to UI workflow. Also note that a dropdown takes two mouse clicks. One to access the menu, and one to access the menu item. A pulldown (dragdown) only takes one click, but you must hold down the button as with a mouse drag operation.
Now is it clear? I hope so.
