CS Extension Builder v1.5 - How to purchase?

Hi,
I realize that this question is slightly off-topic, but after evaluating the CS Extension Builder v1.5 trial, I'd like to know how much it costs and how to purchase it. Oddly enough, I couldn't seem to find that info anywhere on the Adobe site.
Could some kind soul please point me to the URL with that info?
TIA,
mlavie

Hi mlavie,
I am glad to hear that you have evaluated CSExtension Builder and thinking to purchase it. There are two ways to do this.
The one is what Davide suggested above. You need to subscribe to the Adobe Enterprise Devloper Program at this link: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/aedp.html
The other option would be to purchase it once it becomes available on the Adobe Store. Until then, you are free to use the fully functional trial version. Check out the Trial FAQ here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/creativesuite/extension-builder/cs-extension- builder-trial-faq.pdf

  • How do I install and build and extension with extension builder 2.1?

    Honestly, I am beyond frustrated right now.
    1. Extension Builder 3 - This will only install and run with Eclipse. JRE 1.7.
    This only allows me to use Extendscript to write scripts with. Extendscript is so frustrating to use. It seems like there are a lot of missing properties for working with color models in illustrator. The documentation is also terrible for Extendscript. Something that seems like it would be simple to do like export an RGB JPEG is impossible to spec out in the EXPORT JPEG settings. Its also impossible to set the color space of a NEW AI document unless you use the add(); instead of addDocument(); There are conflicting incomplete properties of both methods. If you use one, one set of settings is missing if you use the other another set is missing... WHAT IS SOMEONE SUPPOSED TO DO???
    2. Flash Builder 4.7 will not run Extension Builder 3.
    3. I bought Extension Builder 2.1 which is supposed to install Flash Builder 4.6, but the installation keeps failing right at the end. This apparently also requires that you use JRE 1.6 which is not compatible with Mavericks.
    This all seems impossible... how in the heck are people learning how to do build extensions, its a surprise that any exist at all. If they do They are likely not building them with the Adobe tools. I know enough about code to be dangerous but don't have a doctorate in troubleshooting all of these compatibility, and documentation issues.
    All I want to do is write an extension, or a script that allows me to
    1. copy the art from two layers.
    2. color the background of the AI document to the background color of the original document
    3. resize art from both layers to fit on a 216 x 216 pixel square.
    4. Save the document as a: JPEG - ANTI-ALIAS SUPER SAMPLED - 150 DPI - RGB - MEDIUM QUALITY - CLIP TO ARTBOARD - WITH THE SAME NAME AS THE ORIGINAL FILE
    I AM AT MY WITS END WITH THIS WHOLE PROCESS. I AM ABOUT TO GIVE UP UNLESS SOMEONE CAN HELP GIVE ME A LITTLE INSIGHT.

    Hi,
    First of all, remember that Extension Builder 2.1 only supports building Flash based extensions which have been phased out. If you are building extensions for Creative Cloud and beyond, you should use HTML5. See more info here: Introducing HTML5 extensions | Adobe Developer Connection
    The installation is probably failing because you have some leftovers from a previous installation. The installer will detect if you have Flash Builder 4.5 or Flash Builder 4.6 installed (NOT Flash Builder 4.7). If it finds that you have Flash Builder 4.5/4.6 installed, it will attempt to install the plugin on top of it. If it does not detect Flash Builder 4.5/4.6, it will install Flash Builder 4.6 Premium.
    I highly recommend you look into the new HTML5 extensibility. Here you can find tons of resources: Adobe CEP Resources by Adobe-CEP

  • How to uninstall CS Extension Builder 1.5 or update to 2.0?

    Hi,
    I'm in Flash Builder 4.6. Bellow is a long procedure on why I'm here asking this simple question. But a shorter version of my question is exactly the title of this thread: How can I uninstall 1.5 or, better, simply upgrade to 2.0? Does someone know if it's possible without uninstalling Flash Builder completly?
    Here are the (ho so long and painfully long to read) steps that leads to my problem:
    I've installed CS Extension Builder 1.5 TRIAL whitout any issues. Even coded some working extensions.
    Then, a license have been bought.
    I've updated the files through the Install Software menu. No problems.
    To what I can remember, there was no menu option at this point in the Help menu to get information about the license or log out from the Adobe ID
    Later, I had to show to my coworkers how to install the CS Extension plugin into Flash Builder. A few weeks have already went by since I've done it myself, so just to remember how to do it properly, I figured I should try to do it again.
    Help/Install Software/What's Already Installed/Selected all CS Extension releated plugins/Uninstall/Restard Flash Builder
    Problem #1: All the extension features and menu options are still in Flash Builder. BUT, they are correctly removed from the "Installed Software" window.
    I've searched all over the Internet, I've done nothing wrong. The right way to remove a plugin is from the Installed Software window.
    So, how to clean CS Extension from Eclipse?
    I looked at the CS Extension plugin package to find back which files were copied in the plugins folder of Eclipse and figured I could just remove them manually. Which I did.
    Restart Flash Builder
    CS Extension Builder seems to be sucessfully removed from Eclipse.
    Problem #2: While trying to re-install CS Extension Builder 1.5, Eclipse throws an error. Some files I've removed are missing. Damn.
    Those files were still in my Recycle Bin, so I restored them.
    Install again
    Restart
    Success
    Note that here, 2 new menu options in the Help menu are available to me: one to get information about my license and one to log out from my Adobe ID. There is also a link at the bottom left of Eclipse where I see the Adobe ID register name.
    I don't remember if I needed to enter my serial key the first time, but this one, it seems that only linking Eclipse with the Adobe account does the trick.
    Ok. So far so good, everything's working fine again. But ho, suprise, CS Extension 2 is released and my coworkers are getting this copy instead of 1.5. So hey, I need to upgrade too.
    I figured that I didn't need to uninstall 1.5. Just installing the new files should do it. So Help/Install New Software/Add/Local/CS Extension 2 package/Update
    It tells me that I already have CS Extension Builder and that an upgrade will be done instead. Great, that's what I needed.
    Everyting updates. No errors.
    Restart
    Problem #3: I'm stuck with 1.5. No options to create a project in CS6, and if I go to Help/About Create Suite Extension Builder, it's still displaying the 1.5 panel (my coworkers are getting the red panel, I still have the gray one).
    I do the exact same steps than before (uninstall via Eclipse all plugins related to CS Extension and manually remove the files, restart Eclipse, voilà it's gone).
    But before trying to install again, I read somewhere that I should clean the Installation History to make sure Eclipse unlink itself from the old versions of the files. So I clear everything, leaving the history blank but the Current Installation (which doesn't contains any references to CS Extension.
    Restart Eclipse
    Try to install 2.0
    Same error that is telling my that some files are missing (like com.adobe.cside. core....).
    Get back the plugin files from the recycle bin.
    Now it works but version 1.5 is back
    I notice in the Installation History that a state is there, not containing any CS plugins. I say hey, why not trying to revert there.
    Problem #4 and last one: Now not only I'm still stuck with 1.5, which asn't been unistalled, but the plugins are still in the Installed Software list and, worse, the Uninstall button is grayed out on CS Extension plugins...
    What is going on here! I just want to uninstall and upgrade! Everything I did is a mess, and I know the easy way out is probably to re-install Flash Builder. But I don't want to know how to easily fix it, I want to know WHY it happened, and if it can be fixed. And if you want the real reason... (I have tons of projects in there, and I'm lazy. I don't want to import them all again. But it's better just to say I want to get a lesson from this, don't you agree.)
    Thanks to anybody who might have any kind of hint!
    David
    PS: Sorry if my english syntax isn't perfect. I'm trying very hard.

    I didn't answered my question, but I got it to work without having to re-install.
    Delete all these files and folders from the eclipse/plugins and eclipse/features folder of your Flash Builder installation folder
    com.adobe.cslib
    com.adobe.inverurie
    com.adobe.xmp
    Open the CS Extension Builder plugin package
    Copy all .jar files from the plugin directory and paste them into the eclipse/plugins folder of the Flash Builder installation
    Copy all .jar files from the features directory and paste them into the eclipse/features folder of the Flash Builder installation
    Extract every jar (ex: com.adobe.cside.feature_2.0.0.4-33034.jar file is extracted into a com.adobe.cside.feature_2.0.0.4-33034 folder)
    Delete the .jar files
    Restart Flash Builder
    Everything works fine so far. There is a small glitch where the "CS Extension Builder Start Page" seems to miss its stylesheet, but the panel is working anyway. At this point, it's fine by me. And I'm still not able to uninstall the plugin with the "Installed Software" window (the button is grayed out).
    So much for being lazy. And for wanting to repair my mistakes, of course.

  • How to create custom panel icon using Extension Builder 3?

    How does one go about adding a custom icon for extension panels created with Extension Builder 3?
    The default icon looks Lego-like (see below)
    I'd like to replace the generic icon with an image that can visually identifies the panel even when it's collapsed.

    Found it. 
    In Eclipse, choose Window > Open Perspective > Other > Adobe Extension Builder 3.
    Right-click your project and select Adobe Extension Builder 3 -> Bundle Manifest Editor.
         This editor allows you to change the properties of your extension
    Bundle Manfest Editor > Extension tab (at the bottom) > User Interface tab (back at the top).  Used .png images and it worked.

  • How to show UI created using  CS Extension Builder into our menu.

    hi,

    But I want appear this into my menu.
    so I  just want to know how can I do this? Does any API support this ?
    thanks

    Hi,
    You could try taking a look at the sample extensions that come with Extension Builder - you can go to File > Import... > Adobe Creative Suite Extension Builder > Remote Creative Suite SDK Samples to get them.
    CSXS Extensions can do a lot more than just act as UI for native plug-ins, they can also hook into the applications' scripting DOMs, and do anything else that an Air app can do. Extension Builder is primarily designed to let you create fully fledged standalone flash panels, so when you create a new extension it may well include stuff that you, as a native plug-in developer who only wants to use Extension builder to create a simple front end, might not want.
    For the .as files - when I'm writing extensions (or any flash/air app) I prefer to write as much of my code as possible in ActionScript (so the .as files) and as little as possible in MXML. I think the sample extensions that come with the Illustrator SDK are so simple that they only contain one MXML file with ActionScript embedded in script tags. Either approach is fine, one is a little cleaner and allows you to structure your code in a nicer way, the other is simpler, you can use either approach.
    Note that when you create a new extension Extension Builder generates boiler plate code for you (including the .as file you talked about). Feel free to delete that if you don't want it. It is only there as a guide, some basic code to start with, not something that you have to keep. You can structure your code however you like, you just need a .swf at the end of the day (well, and the manifest file discussed above). You can also remove the actionscript libraries if you aren't using them (e.g. the Illustrator CSAW library) by right clicking the project and going to Properties > CS Extension Builder Libraries. These libraries are for interacting with the Illustrator scripting DOM (there are InDesign, Photoshop, Bridge, ... equivalents too), and you probably don't need that here.
    Let me know if you have any more questions,
    Louis

  • Purchasing Extension Builder 2.1 After Trying the Trial Version: Must I Re-Install?

    A few months ago, I installed the trial version of Extension Builder 2.1. The trial has expired.
    So i went to buy a license. I got back a serial number.
    I assumed that the Extension Builder would include some activiation dialog in which I would enter the serial number and continue on my merry way. Couldn't find it.
    From the wording on the site, it would appear that I need to re-download and re-install Extensino Builder 2.1. That take a long time and I've esperienced probelms installing it in the past.
    Is there a way to enter the serial number instead of reinstalling?
    TIA,

    No. They are different builds.

    Thanks for the feedback Harbs,
    Yeah I couldnt agree with you more on the open source aspect. Maybe well get some form of AIR support on linux for those of use who develop on linux as well (doubt it comes back with Adobe driving the train)  who knows what the future holds.. GOD KNOWS IM SICK OF CYGWIN... 
    All I'm saying is we cant build a business around uncertainty.
    We recently signed up for business catalyst, I would of like'd to see some Actionscript API's for that... (I Love how muse and the dreamweaver extensions are using  them but it seem they forget to package some up for us. I guess they really do expect us to use html5 for everything.)
    They are close to releasing Flash builder 4.6 but Creative Suite Extension Builder hasnt been updated...  Theres a lot of things getting left out...
    There seems to be no communication.  Amidst all that goodness that has drawn us to using Flash and Adobe AIR for our game development theres a lot of confusion.
    And take it from me and save yourself some time and dont call customer service I have found more info over the forums in two minutes then I did in four hours of phone conversation.
    I think we may just hold off on purchasing anything else until they sort through the storm.
    Consider we are currently developing our apps with  Business Catalyst, CS5.5 Web Premium, Flash Media Server,  CS Extension Builder, and there new flash 3d API's  we dont have time or money to waste on such foolishness..
    Someone needs to remind Adobe that they make software, They focus so much on the end users, THEY ARE NOT YOUR CUSTOMERS.. DESIGNERS AND DEVELOPERS ARE.. JUST EQUIP US WITH THE BEST TOOLS AND WELL MAKE THE DECISION...

  • CS Extension Builder 1.5 and CS SDK 1.5 are available

    Hi all,
    I am pleased to announce that the latest versions (1.5) of Creative Suite Extension Builder and the Creative Suite SDK are now available through the downloads section on the CS Extension Builder website.
    The team has applied significant effort to deliver a release only 12 months after the 1.0 release and we believe that it will be as successful as the first one.
    Some of the highlights of the 1.5 release are:
    improved support for hybrid extensions (more)
    ability to develop for multiple versions of the Creative Suite (more)
    advanced tools for developing with XMP metadata (more)
    support for Content Management Systems that support the CMIS (Content Management Interoperability Services) specification
    extension profiling
    To find out more about the 1.5 release, take a look our CS Extension Builder page on Adobe Developer Connection. Over the next  few weeks we will be pushing more content (tutorials, articles, videos) to this page and we intend to make it the main resource center for Creative Suite developers. You can also check the our channel on youtube.
    As always your feedback is important.
    We hope you enjoy the new release!

  • Bought CS Extension Builder 2 - having issues with username/password

    I recently purchased a monthly subscription to Adobe CS Extension Builder 2.0 (see below) after my trial version expired. I am using it with Flash Builder 4.6 and SDK 4.6. When I installed the retail version of CS Extension Builder 2.0, and created a new Extension Builder project (or used an old one), it gave me the following error: "Please log in with your Adobe ID to use Adobe Creative Suite Extension Builder". I don't see a place where you can log into Adobe or input a password. I looked online and found this forum message: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4793080#4793080, which indicated that there was an issue with the retail version and a fix was soon to follow. I tried to use the software update feature in Flash Builder, but it did not help. Will you please provide me with this fix or advise me on how I can continue to use CS Extension Builder 2.0?
    Please help. Thank you.

    Hi,
    Do you have any of the Creative Suite products installed? If you have, a dialog should pop up where you can enter your Adobe ID.
