Recommendation of book for beginners

I know the basics of Flash CS4 and would like to expand my knowledge to learn the ActionScript 3. My background is in graphic design (not math, not programming). Can anyone help with a book recommendation that could help me get started with the basics of ActionScript 3?

It is a good book for designers.

If you were a developer, no book would be necessary.  the flash help files do a very good job teaching as3.

  • Book for beginners - Dreamweaver CS4

    Hi all

    I thought that this question might have been answered before, but a brief search forums was not helpful, so I write my question.

    I just bought CS4 Design Premium and taught me in my work. Dreamweaver is proving particularly difficult to use.

    From Adobe classroom in a book series is completely unnecessary, so I'm looking for a better book. Preferably, it would be an understandable for beginners, but who teaches quite advanced issues to create a good website.

    Thank you for your time!

    A book that I find very very well written and can be used by users of all levels is "Dreamweaver CS4-The Missing Manual" David Sawyer McFarland. I don't think that I still have not found an answer in. Will guide you through it lesson by lesson, she is excellent reference on how to do certain tasks.

    Given that, the best resource I've found is the videos on Lynda.com. And of course the Adobe Forums! ;-)

  • Recommend a book for GUI concepts.

    Hi gurus,

    The subject says it all. I was never a fan of GUI programming. Always avoided. But now the BB I guess I have no choice but to dive head first into the GUI. In looking KB articles I realize I have very weak concepts of the fact that the graphical object or the Paint method and the method of layout and all that of other GUI things. Can someone recommend a good java GUI book that could help out me in the programming of BB. Something more than a book of beginner level.

    Much obliged.

    PS. I already beginning BlackBerry development by Anthony Rizk. Great book, but it touches just briefly on the GUI.

    Agree with the last two posts.

    More GUI controls keep getting included in the BONES, which can help, but only if you are targeting the current operating systems.

    In my opinion, the two most useful GUI related KB articles are:

    How - to implement advanced buttons, fields and managers

  • Recommendation/resources (books, examples) for NI Vision

    Hi all

    After a few days I tried to learn and to do some very basic projects (video) using NI Vision and its does not too well, in part because I have no image editing experience or background. I would like to know if there are some resources out there for beginners. I found a book "image acquisition and processing with labview", but it is intended for more experienced users. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Hello odessy27,

    For a book of general image processing, try Image processing: Fnndamentals The.  To get examples of LabVIEW and IMAQ using, you can take a look at our examples for shipping.  Any window of LabVIEW, see help > find examples.  Then navigate to hardware input and output and IMAQ.

    Thank you

  • where can I find information for beginners to learn windows 7?

    where can I find information for beginners to learn windows 7?

    You can browse different websites and are looking for tips and tricks, or you can buy a book like Windows 7 for Dummies (or any other entry level book).

    But the best option is to do a combination of the use of the PC and reading. You can read all the books and read all sites, but you will learn a lot by using just the PC and windows.
  • Prepare for the new guard cert (1z1-066) data, which is best book for study of data protection?

    Hello

    I've already planned some 1z1-066 exam on the last possible day in September.

    Now, I need to start reading.

    I had once a class of oracle Data Guard like 8 years ago.

    Can someone recommend which is considered to be the best titles of book for the protection of the data.

    Thank you Roger

    I did some quick research for DG books.  There is not a lot to choose from and none of the 12 c yet.  I haven't started on my details page of Oracle Certification Prep exam for 066, so my research on this issue is minimal at best.  That said, the only books I've seen which were reasonable in all were Oracle Data Guard 11 g manual press of Oracle and Oracle Data Guard 11 GR 2 management beginner's Guide by Packt Publishing.  I have not read the books or studied the contents of a.  A warning for me on the Packt flag is that all the of the positive comments on the book seem drawn by the hair.  I've seen this before on other books from this Publisher.  They seem to have a handful of people who write glowing reviews of 5 stars from Packt books within a very short time from the date of publication. This seems misleading just for me. The press review of the Oracle by contract has several times the number of comments on a wide range of dates, and they are almost always positive.

    That said, I would like to reiterate - I have not checked the content of a.  Before I add books that do not specifically reference a review for "Third-party resources" pages on my site, I compare the Table of contents for the purposes of test to see if there is a reasonable correspondence on the matter.

    I'll try to at least a start on a details page for 066 in the coming weeks.  I'm in deep writing at the moment, but I should be able to take a break to search for documentation and articles and whitepapers for Data Guard.

  • PL/SQL 1Z0-144 recommended programming books

    Hello everyone,

    I am a student at the exam 1z0-144, and I need some suggestions on the study of materials.

    I have already downloaded the PL/SQL language reference guide and guide for certification of Matthew Morris, and I wonder if it is worth investing on one of these two books:


    • (1) oracle PL/SQL Programming with Steven Feuerstein, Bill Pribyl (he has very good reviews on Amazon)


    • (2) oracle Database 11 g PL/SQL (Oracle Press) of programming by Michael McLaughlin (there no good reviews that many readers complain about typos and redundant content)


    Otherwise, I also saw the book of programming database PL/SQL Oracle 12 c also by Michael McLaughlin.



    Thank you in advance for any suggestion

    Good luck

    Well, I have both the McLaughlin(11g) and Feuerstein (5th edition)... my Feuerstein's most lopsided of the use.  None of these review oriented but are more for learning the language. which is really what in the end you have to do more than learn the review.  McLaughlin has stuff in it that, generally at any time, I don't really have what to know.  I hesitate to recommend Mclaughim Feuerstein for versions I have if for no other reason than the police, layout and structure works better Feuerstein for me.

    Two of these books have editions came out for 12cR1 and consider later.  Get a cheap second hand earlier edition would work as well.  Earlier current on Amazon UK the last Feuerstein on kindle a little over half the price of the paperback... sometimes, I find certain books are not good on kindle etc but Feuerstein is a large piece to the basket to autour.

    Don't ignore the funnel put the concise PL/SQL expert guide on your kindle either.

    See what others say in any case.

  • Should I use Illustrator or InDesign to write a book for kids photo?

    Should I use Illustrator or InDesign to write a book for kids photo?

    We often see a question like "THAT which program should I use / should I use/not pros use. But there is here a big assumption, and it is usually a false assumption. Pros use a mix of programs to do their job. A common mixture, but certainly not the only one, is

    -Word (sometimes) to get the text without photos or page layout

    -Photoshop, to manage the photos and scanned drawings

    -Illustrator, to create original works of art on the computer

    -InDesign to ask pages and put the text, photos, analyzed together art and original works of art. (The text can be performed InDesign if there is not a lot) To apply consistent styles so the thing seems professionally produced rather than a hodgepodge.

    Each of these programs would be used to save files in an organized and systematic way until you collect things. Copy/paste is very little used.

    They are tools professional and immensely rich in functionality; and dive you are likely to commit errors which lead you in the wrong results or who need to start the project. I highly recommend investing in a serious training only in those programs, but in the entire task of modern graphic design.

  • A program of Photoshop for beginners help with things and advertising brochures

    What would be a good program of Photoshop for beginners help with things and advertising brochures

    ' Advertising brochures and things ' seems to imply elements that will be printed on both sides of a piece of paper or make multipage documents.

    Photoshop is an image editor and can have only 1 page per document.

    In short, Photoshop is the application bad for something more than a single item from the front.

    Adobe InDesign is a page layout program that is specifically designed to create multipage documents.

    You can type or place text, photos of the place and the other images and have better control over the placement and arrangement of the elements on the page.

    InDesign, like Photoshop, Illustrator has a steep learning curve.

    You can download Adobe trial versions (these will only work for 30 days) and raise you some books or sign for video lessons on Lynda.com

  • for beginners, better start from zero or model? help please

    so I've learned dreamweaver cs4 and fireworks etc for a few months now watch lynda.com tutorials and other things. I'm a construction site (or try) to sell mixers online. Progress seem to slow down, guys recommend using these models, you can get free or pay? If so, is it worth paying for? Thank you!

    Hi, I have a certain experience, building a site of electronic commerce as a beginner, but it is not clear if that is your real goal or not what you'e says.

    Even for a regular site without electronic commerce (e-commerce, I mean having a credit card shopping cart and taking orders online via your site, etc.), always things for me as in a fog - and slowly over time, the fog clears and I can see what is happening. So hang in there.

    Whatever it is, I advise to use a model, but it means different things, in function.  In Dreamweaver, you have CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) available models from which to choose, which are a good starting point. Recently, I used one to turn my site into CSS and leave the use of the tables behind.

    As a beginner, would do you well to begin to learn the construction of Web sites using CSS right from the start. It would be a huge advantage for you. In DW, in your first Panel under the column "create new", descend to the bottom and click on the folder 'more '. That will take you to all the available models. There, choose "Blank template" and "Html", then a specific model.

    I would like to choose a model that is "fixed", which means that the width of the construction is specifically defined in pixels, as a 2 column fixed left sidebar with "."

    I heard that that fixed CSS templates (etc vs. liquid) are easier for beginners to work with.

    IF you go to an e-commerce site, I would recommend using storefront software, which gives you very good models to use - and their software works as a DW Plugin, which means it fits in the DW interface and making it easier to use. Its software allows you to insert a shopping cart interface shopping and what is e-commerce-driven in your site.

    It is a fairly expensive software, but it is also a very positive alternative for beginners in e-commerce. In addition, their models are very respectful of the designer they give the user a lot of room design to customize the look of their site.

    As a beginner, I must warn you - to have an e-commerce site, online site is difficult and it takes a sizeable presence for it work, which means a lot of stamina and a good number of products to sell.

    in any case, I hope I helped... Good luck

  • My book for Mac "preparing backup".

    Hi all

    I've updated to Sierra this morning and since then my WD My Book for Mac has been slain in the backup of the preparation for about 10 hours. My backup before the upgrade went through without a problem. Is the amount of time the backup takes to be expected with the upgrade or it's just stuck in limbo?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello, Huss417!

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. Congrats on the update to Mac OS Sierra! It's a great new operating system.

I know the importance of these backups and want absolutely to make your passes by. I'd be happy to help you!

  • Time Machine do not hourly backups on WD My Book for Mac new

    My 1 TB time capsule was too small for the full backup so I just bought a 6 new to WD "My Book for Mac" and have now a new back up, but it won't backup time as usual. I am running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 Can anyone who thinks that the reason for what I fear not having a reliable backup. The problem with the new hard drive external or is - a problem with EL Capitan?

    Hello Arnaud,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It is my understanding that Time Machine was not back up as expected. I certainly understand how it is important to be able to back up your content. I'm happy to help you.

    There are several factors that could influence the automatic backup. Please follow the steps in the link below to fix this problem:

    If you cannot back up or restore your Mac with Time Machine

    In addition to these measures, hourly backups could be affected by your sleep Macs and power Nap settings, depending on which Mac you use. To ensure that your hourly backups are finished, set your Mac sleep to a longer period time. For testing purposes, try to set the duration of sleep at least 1 hour. You can do this in system preferences > energy saver.

    In addition, if you use a portable Mac, make sure that it is connected to power during the tests to see if hourly backups work. See the link below to view information on how Power Nap works and how it can affect Time Machine.

    How Power Nap works on your Mac

    Keep in mind, that Time Machine backs up only files that have changed since the last backup.

    Have an amazing day!
