Hand 10 Full Switch To

I've tried and tried to get to grips with illustrator but find even doing simple things overly complex, difficult and ultimately frustrating. CS5 Illustrator is fine and I'm learning all the time with it, but MX is rock solid for my type of vector work and I find it an easy program to use.Why oh why did Adobe trash Freehand!!!!!! I have been designing on it for years and it is so fast, solid and edears itself to the creative process, it is the exact opposite of illustrator which is slow clunky and a shear pain to work with!I will use this program to the end of time on my new mac with rosetta.Adobe hang your head in shame!! and I hope the god's of design rain terror on you for this awful decision!!I for one would love to see a list of the things die-hard users of FreeHand name as a reason not to move over to Illustrator.I've used freehand for years producing literally hundreds of full vehicle (truck, bus and car) cutaway illustrations, that back in the day illustrator would just chug with. After using Illustrator back in the day and then making a full switch to Freehand, I'm still much more comfortable with some functionality within Freehand, so was delighted that MX would run. But I thought this might be of use to someone else.Now, time to starting learning Illustrator everyone!I'm running FreehandMX on 10.6.6 and other than a bit of colour wierdness when printing to pdf (now sorted), it's working fine. Who knows how well it works, or whether it can print/save/export/create PDFs successfully.

Stuff which I knew was easy!It was a dark day when Adobe bought Macromedias products, they certainly haven't improved them much and killed off perfectly good ones. I just couldn't make illustrator do what I wanted to do an there seemed no way to do it either. I gave up and went back to freehand and it was job done in 30 mins. I spent hours in Illustrator cs5 the other day just trying to do some logo visuals for a friend, after many hours of frustration and searching the not very useful help, and menus etc. So many thing so overly complicated to do in illustrator. Path operations like punch, and then modify the resultant shape (if I want to remove a bit of my shape I don't need to see it like it was).And gradient fills.

I brought a freehand file into CS5 Illustrator and could not even figure out what I could do with it. I have a brand new Imac sitting at my desk that I watch movies on while I work on my old G5. I am a die-hard Freehand MX user.
