    Is F1 broken in CS4?

      Hi -  I'm using Flash ProCS4 on Windows 7 and just getting my bearings.

       

      I learned in a basics tutorial that I could highlight a property name in the actionscript panel and hit F1 to get to the specific Flash documentation page about that property.  However when I hit F1 I get the "home page" for the entire AS3.0 Reference for the entire platform. To find out about the property, I now have to conduct a search in this massive reference and look thru way too many results.  I find this frustrating.

       

      I'd much rather think that my system is broken than to think Adobe believes this is the best way to help a user.

       

      Am I using this F1 trick correctly?  Isn't there a way to get directly to the information I need about a property without the extra steps and searches?

       

      thanks,

      JL
