    Flash CS4 Freezes

      Hi,
      When working in Flash CS4 (Windows) and you have a search window within Flash open, or the Publish Settings window (or any other window from Flash), and for some reason Flash looses focus (e.g. because another program pops up a window) you cannot go back into Flash. The reason is that you cannot get that open flash window back in focus (Alt-tabbing does not show the window you opened in Flash, only the main application).
      Is this a known bug, and how to deal with it.
      It sure is pretty annoying because the only option left in cases like this, is to shut down Flash with the Task Manager.

          Hi,

          This is a known issue that we are investigating. There is a way out of this state without force-quitting Flash, but very unintuitive -- you have to use keyboard shortcuts to re-open up the Publish Settings dialog (or whatever dialog got you in that state).

          Thanks,
