New authoring tools available (Sept 1)
The v15 Folio Producer tools are now available here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=172&platform=Macintosh
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=172&platform=Windows
If you install these authoring tools, the folios you publish are compatible with the current Adobe Content Viewer available on your iPad, Android, and PlayBook devices. However, if you created a custom viewer app using an earlier set of tools and don't want to submit a new version to the store, you don't need to update your authoring tools.
If you install the newest version of the Adobe Content Viewer on an Android device, you can use the new Preview on Device feature. The updated Android viewer is available here (or you can search for it in Market):
https://market.android.com/details?id=air.com.adobe.contentviewer
The Preview on Device feature is not yet available for the iPad. When using the Preview on Device with the Android viewer, make sure that you have the newest viewer, that you turn on USB Debugging on your device, that you install the required device drivers to transfer files from your computer to your mobile device (Windows only), and that you start Adobe Content Viewer on your attached device when you open the Preview menu in your Folio Builder panel. See Use Preview on Device for details.
The updated version of the Viewer Builder is not yet available. It is scheduled for release next week.
See What's new in this release for details. However, note that the new Viewer Builder features mentioned are not yet available.
Hello Bob, i welcome myself in public forums. I'm quite desperate now. Finaly we are able to use full DPS, so we start to upgrade our tools from Drop 10 to current tools (so i'm on CS 5). Unfortunately even after many tries (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/916/cpsid_91689.html) i'm still stuck with error of folio builder requesting upgrade.
BTW because of quite non-helping names of .dmg i'm even not sure that i'm downloading REALLY the newest tools, because name is just AdobeDigitalPublishingPatch-All and files on this dmg are from 25th of August. Here is screenshot from installation of this update:
Any idea what to do? And no, reinstall CS 5 is not the answer, it's late evening here and i don't have access to medium and serial number in IT section.
And please can you improve informations about what version belongs to which "Drop" (and which viewer is supported by this version), and can you improve naming of downloads so it's crystal clear what is what?
Thank you.

New Nvidia System Tool available, Ver 6.01 Mar 31, 2008
Ah, just noticed Nvidia has a new System tools available for those that want to check the ESA status of their systems. Personally, I like the "Performance" software for overclocking video cards..the rest of the package just doesnt appeal to me. You can install any of the three packages individually. The software is available by selecting "Beta drivers"..."Nforce".."Software", and then choosing your individual operating system.

What is the status of the JavaFX Authoring Tool?
Hi. Several months ago now I was excited to see the following presentation about a JavaFX Authoring Tool that was presented at JavaOne 2009.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8a988IyTHVU
We are only a few months away from JavaOne 2010 and it's hard to find out anything about this tool. If this is still in development does anyone have any news on release date, features, beta program etc.
Thanks.
JohnI am assuming everyone has seen the demo and pictures of the new authoring tool. I personally think it's very exciting and it could be as good or better than the tool provided by Adobe for Flash. However, having siad all that, I am really surprised by the lack of interest in this post. I was hoping more developers would show an interest in this post and the tool, or even the tool developers tease us with some more information. It makes me wonder if JavaFx has died before it has even started, or if no one is really interested in a tool like this.

SCSM Authoring Tool verification error when creating a new property
I am needing to add several new fields to an existing customized ServiceRequest Extended Form. Using SCSM I exported the management pack (as a bundle) and then used PowerShell to export to a .xml. Now when I open the class and try
to create a new property I get an error stating:
The management pack could not be verified due to this error:
Verification failed with 1 errors:
Error 1:
Found error in ...servicerequestextendedform.category with message:
The Target attribute value is not valid. Element ....ServiceRequestExtendedForm.Category references a Target element that cannot be found.
I am very new to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!you probably want to go back to original sources, rather then exporting from Service Manager, since the export will break any sealing and might cause issues when authoring or resealing.
You'll also need :
a Sealed version of the class extension, since this is going to need to be loaded into the authoring tool before you see the extra properties,
an unsealed copy of the MP that contains the form customization, so you can edit it
the original key used to seal the current customization, so you can seal the upgraded form using the same key so it will upgrade the MP correctly in your production environment.
The specific error you're running into looks like a MP reference error, but it's hard to be sure without seeing the original XML. i'd make sure that you have opened the sealed versions of any other MPs this MP depends upon. -
SCSM - Amending new field in authoring tool
Hi,
I have added a new field to the change template in the authoring tool, it looks good in the authoring tool but is moving it to the richt when I have imported it, you can see this in the screen shot below. The two new fileds, one called 'Will this change
affect our IT recovery poition' has moved over to the right.
I guess it is comething to do with the details settings for these fields, any advice on how these should be set woul dbe appreicated.
tamrepHi,
SCSM Authoring tool is a magic instrument for forms customization :).
Add your controls to StackPanel508 and StackPanel509 instead Grid. Use the margin, width, alignment to position the controls within the CR form.
Cheers,

Help Authoring Tool Options & Enhancements
I have been using RoboHelp x5 since 2005. For this year's
budget meeting I have to provide options/cost comparison on other
tools that are available. One thing that is of crucial importance
is that my background is not in computer/technical (no can do code,
scripting, etc), which is why RoboHelp was chosen in the first
place.
1) Can anyone offer an "addon products" to use with RoboHelp
(i.e. to enhance search function, etc)
2) Can anyone offer any advice (pros and/or cons) about any
of the following Help Author Tools?
• AuthorIT
• Doc-To-Help
• chm2web
• FAR
• Help & Manual
• Help Generator
• HelpConsole 2008
• HelpNDoc
• HelpServer
• HelpStudio
• HelpTron
• HyperText Studio
• Macrobject Word-2-CHM
• Macrobject Word-2-Web
• MadCap Flare
• Mif2Go
• WinCHM
Any assistance will be MUCH appreciated!
CindiHi, Cindi,
If you're an experienced RoboHelp user and happy with the
output that you're getting with it then I would question the
benefit of switching to another help authoring tool. This may be
necessary in some circumstances —- for example, if you need
to output your help content in a format that RoboHelp does not
support, such as Microsoft Help 2.0 -— but for the most part
the time and effort required to learn the new tool and convert your
existing content for use with it will outweigh the benefits of
switching to it.
Here are a few notes on the tools you listed.
> chm2web
> Help Generator
> HelpConsole 2008
> HelpNDoc
> HelpServer
> HelpTron
> Macrobject Word-2-CHM
> Macrobject Word-2-Web
> WinCHM
I see little or no mention of these tools in any of the
Help-related forums that I frequent. This isn't necessarily a bad
thing, of course, but I believe it indicates that few professional
help authors are using them. I'd expect the cheaper of these tools
to provide few or no editing facilities, and in some cases they may
be designed to perform a single, very specific function, such as
compiling a set of existing HTML files into a .chm file.
> FAR
This is an excellent tool for performing search-and-replace
operations across a set of HTML files and compiling them into a
.chm file or Help 2.0 file. It provides no facilities for creating
and maintaining your topic content, however, so you should really
only view it as a potentially useful add-on to RoboHelp.
> Mif2Go
This is like WebWorks Publisher (not on your list): an
application that takes source content authored with Adobe
FrameMaker and converts it into a number of different help formats.
If you've already authored a lot of content with RoboHelp then
moving it into FrameMaker and setting up the Mif2Go or WebWorks
templates appropriately could be a big undertaking.
> HyperText Studio
This was up-and-coming five or ten years ago but, for
whatever reason, it seems to have dropped completely from view
(though I'm aware that it is still for sale).
> HelpStudio
This is a quite heavy-duty application that appears to be
more popular with software developers than with full-time help
authors. A "lite" version is now being given away with Visual
Studio.
> AuthorIT
> Doc-To-Help
> Help & Manual
> MadCap Flare
These are all significant players. I've used AuthorIT only
and, while it's certainly a powerful tool, the learning curve is
quite steep.
You can read detailed reviews of many of these applications
at the Writers UA site (

Service Manager Authoring Tool 2012 SP1 Missing DLL's
Hello All,
Originally posed this to the MS partner forums and was asked to post here.
I'm hoping someone familiar with the Authoring Tool For service Manager can help me. I'm using the Service Manager Authoring Tool 2012 SP1 found at the link below. I believe this to be the latest available.
Although the splash screen says Service Pack 1 Beta? Hoping the dev forgot to update the splash screen.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36214
I'm trying to create a new custom Service Request form and am getting prompted for some DLL's that seem to be workstation related or at least the Aerolite.dll makes me thing Windows Aero. (Could be wrong)
I've successful created a new Management pack, and I created a new Class that inherits the properties of the Service Request Class. I've added all the properties I need for the new form. All is well no issues there.
The next step is to create a new custom form. I select the create new custom form. Give it a simple name, and select my assembly then the form type. I'm then prompted for several DLL files that are not on my system
and I'm not sure where to find them.
The DLL's are:
Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.UI.ExtendedControls.Aerolite.dll
WPFTToolkit.AeroLite.dll
I can select cancel several times to get ride of the prompt for the DLL's and can customize the from without issues. I don't think this is correct but I have been able to create the form.
Does anyone know where I can find the above DLLs? Am I doing something incorrect here? Is this a bug in the authoring tool? If so is there an updated version I should be using?
I also receive the same prompt for DLLs when attempting to create a custom incident form....
My test environment is running Server 2012 R2 with Service Manager 2012 SP1. Went ahead and tried this using the Service Manager 2012 SP1 Eval VHD and had the same issue...Hello Gabe,
The following post provides some insight on the Aero DLL's.
Hi Matt,
The Aero dll is only available on Vista so the tool will not find it when running on a different OS (e.g. Server 2008). However, you can safely cancel out of that it does not affect the form.
Regarding moving controls between tabs, unfortunately that's not supported this release.
It sounds like you did everything right, so let us try your MP here and see if we can reproduce the crash you are seeing and investigate it.
Thanks,
Cori

Yes, someone forget to change the splash screen :)

Inconsistency between catalog authoring tool & Search engine
Hi,
We are on CCM2.0 and SRM5.0 with catalog deployment in the same client as SRM.
In our implementation we are using master catalog and product catalog. We have very recently deleted around 65 items from our product catalog which is mapped to mater catalog and hence those 65 items are not found anymore in master catalog in CAT (Catalog authoring tool).
This master catalog when published, we expect that these 65 products should not be available for end users.
But end users can still see the deleted items through CSE (Catalog search engine). Thus there is data inconsistency between CAT & CSE.
Has anyone faced similar issue before if yes can you please share the same with us.
Edited by: Manoj Surve on Mar 24, 2009 7:05 AMRun TCODE SE38 program /CCM/CLEANUP_MAPPING to look for errors/orphaned records in test mode.
If you want to clear out orphaned records uncheck the Test Mode but:
Warning: This program can slow down a production system as it clears out the memory buffers for user catalog searches and these have to be built up again by the users doing searches. This can be hours to days depending upon the size of your system and the number of users.
In Dev or UAt no problem.
Hope this helps?

How to Upload Multiple questions IN LSO using Authorizing tool
Hi Friends,
I am very new to the E-learning. As per my knowledge after uploading any content through Authorizing tool in will be uploaded to KM folder.
In my practice I am trying to upload the Multiple questions. I have searched but I am not find So please guide me the below scenario.
We have a requirement that is User need to complete the assesment. In this assesment we have 100 questions with random option. How to upload these 100 question at a time using authorizing tool.
Thanks,
SureshHi Sandesh,
this is simply not supported, not in WebDynpro nor in standard HTML.
A workaround is to upload a ZIP with all files and on server side unpack the ZIP and operate on the single files.
I hope it will help u..
----------------------OR-------------------------
As you know using File upload UI element we can upload only one file at a time. There may be a scenario where user may want to upload any no of files at a time which is not determined at design time. This can be acheived using the ACF UpDownload UI element which requires a security whiltelist to be created

You can use Table UI element.

Add Object Attributes to a DisplayObject that is created in the Authoring Tool
Hello, how can I add attributes to a Display Object, that I have created in the Authoring Tool, so I can acces it by:
myDisplayObjectInstance.myNewAttribute
Is a DisplayObejct a dynamic class, that can be extended from anywhere?
Thanks a lotI just found the syntax to add a new ObjectAttribute to an Instance of the Object. But is this ObjectAttribute also added to all other Instances of the Obejct?
My plan was to create a MovieClip and set some ActionScript inside its timeline in the first frame that adds some Objcet Attributes to that MovieClip, so that the new Object Attribute can be used for all Instances of this MovieClip, that are created in the runtime. -
How to delete a customization from a form - To import a managemt pack from the Authoring Tool
I am having issues importing a management pack created in the authoring tool. How do I delete a customization from a form since only one can be present? Is there documentation on this?
If the MP defining the first custom form doesn't contain anything else you need (such as class extensions) delete the first MP. If it contains other stuff you need, delete the form from the Authoring Tool, increase the version the by 1, seal and import.
Then import your 2nd MP containing your new form.
