Re: [flexcoders] flex2 Beta3 - slow to non existent document delivery

>That is not correct. If you download FB2 Beta3 and install FlexBuilder, then click "Help->Help Contents" you get a full set of docs. I should know: I use them all day, every day. J

Yeah, it's on my 2nd monitor 24/7 ;-)

Peace, Mike

Hi,
 
The whole doc package (language refs, api docs, all pdfs) can be downloaded from the ZIP file link in the first paragraph here:
 
 
You'll might have to log into labs first.

Alistair,
Yes I have also tried this. I can't get one document to save, not one. It's very odd. I'm at my wits end.
 
Another gentlemen suggested that there is documentation w the download. While I have the download, I haven't looked there yet to see what's available. That's a good idea! Does anyone know, are the tutorials and the like there?
 
I really want to get up to speed on this but I'm currently hamstrung.
 
Thanks to both of you,
PB

Hi PB,
 
Have you tried to save the pdf to your local file system, rather than downloading and reading it over the internet every time?

I'm trying to get up to speed and participate in the Flex2 Beta3 programme, but 'm having a difficult time doing so. Please forgive me if I'm bothering the group, but this is incredibly frustrating. I'm wondering if the folks at Adobe/Macromedia are up to speed on this document delivery issue?
 
Whenever I try to access any of the Flex2 beta documentation I run into problems. Say for example I'd like to peruse the "flex2_gettingstarted_pdf" docs. I click on the appropriate link from within the release notes section at the "labs" site and it takes forever to load. When the document finally does come back I get a few pages, that's it. When I try to scroll to a new page it takes literally 3 minutes to perform a page down if it occurs at all. Often the "document" just hangs.  If I try to print the document, the process also hangs, w/o fail. I've tried printing perhaps 10 times over the last week at various times to no avail. The LiveDocs are no better. Thus the whole learning exercise becomes moot.
 
While I have a 3mb broadband connection, I'm in the East near Toronto, and I fear, I'm doomed since I'm not at all proximal to "your" pops on the West coast. I'm about ready to bail on the beta, it's just too time consuming to tough it out.
 
Any insight would be appreciated.
 
(As an aside I can access literally thousands of pages of documentation at the Oracle site in a flash, (pardon aside). Their document delivery system works. If you Adobe folks wanna get the word out about your flex software, this has certainly got to improve quickly, IMHO.
 
Thanks for your time.
PB
