Extensions for Flash Pro in CC?

I tried to open the Exchange using Window > Extensions and the only thing I see is "No Extensions Installed". Next I tried the link on the welcome screen and just got a web page that said click here for CC users only to find that Flash doesn't get Exchange built in. OK - how do we get extensions in Flash CC?

Thanks, that explains a lot.
I'm afraid I'm a bit confused about what the preferred way of developing extensions is going ahead. There seems to be a lot of conflicting documentation on the adobe site, e.g. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite.html seems like the top page for extension documentation but it only talks about CS SDK 2.0 which uses CSXS and doesn't seem to be compatible with creative cloud apps.
Then there's CS Extension Builder 2.1 which looks like it supports Flash Pro CC but isn't mentioned in the pages you linked too and it doesn't mention JSFL, but talks about the CSAW library.
Do you know if:
* The CS SDK has been dropped completely?
* CS Extenstion Builder is deprecated? (I can't see it as an option in the list of Creative Cloud apps)
* Is then any documentation/utilities to help migrate existing CSXS extensions to work with creative cloud apps?
Thanks,
Stephen

Where might I find a good tutorial on creating an HTML-5 based extension for Flash Pro CC?

I have extension builder 3 installed in eclipse and it appears to be working like normal. I'm able to create a new extension builder project. I need help taking the next steps.
Previously in extension builder 2.1 and Flash Builder 4.6 it auto-created the .mxml and .as files for me so all I had to do was insert a bit of jsfl into the as script section and save and could see it show up as a panel in my Flash Pro panels menu. With EB3 I can't really tell what it's doing and am unsure on how to continue, are there any boiler plate files available I can plug in? I want to start simple and add a button, a bit of jsfl, and progress but can't seem to get past installing eb3. Any help or tutorials available? Thanks

Barnes & Noble is an excellent source of knowledge; I often end up there with a notebook and a pen myself. It is true though, sometimes trying to find information about programming can be an obscured journey; there are often times when something so simple, if explained better would have saved hours of trial and error. I don't think there's a person on this forum that hasn't experienced this exact scenario, and probably more than once.
As unfortunate as it is, this is the way it is, programmers don't always make the best writers. Assumptions are made and people don't always have the time to write out all the specific details of a how-to, but in a way you have to learn to read through that. If you're interested in really learning how to program in any language, I can't think of a better way to learn it. When you read a snippet of code and it doesn't work, the only thing you can do is figure out why it doesn't work or to abandon the code and move on. As harsh as this is, it can really help improve your knowledge; it forces you to really understand the tool(s) you're using and once you understand it, you start to progress much faster.
I know you were probably were wanting more of a straight-forward answer, but I think it's important to know that we all have and still go through the same sort of frustrations.My suggestion is to find a site, book, a user group, or a class that teaches you what you need to know, and in a way that makes sense to you. Here are some resources you might want to check out. Good luck.

Looking for tutorial or developer to for hotkey extension for Flash Pro.

I'm using Flash Pro CS6 on a Windows 8 touch/pen tablet. In put tablet mode, some of the common commands, especially undo, are difficult to reach without hotkeys or keyboard shortcuts.
What I need is an on-screen panel with big easy-to-hit "Undo" and "Redo" buttons that I can use as hotkeys on the touchscreen, much like the hotkeys on a Wacom Intuos or Cintiq. I have a little programming knowledge, but don't know where to start in creating an extension panel like this.
Can anyone suggest a good sarting tutorial for this type of add-on, or would anyone be willing to bash out such an extension?
Thank you for your time.

Hi Arafat,
Thank you for the suggestion but I had already looked at that.
I am looking for a working example or step-by-step tutorial that updates a table in SAP, using ABAP webdynpro. The PO example provided with Designer does not connect with SAP; also, the tutorial steps provided in the Designer Help do not even match the way the example form is constructed! (Help says use table object, the example pdf uses a repeating subform).
My problem seems to be in the binding between the form and SAP. I have tried various changes and nothing I try is transferring any data except the first row of the table.
I hope someone has a SAP example for this situation.

How to test and configure custom extensions in Flash Pro CC?

Hi,
How do you install custom CS extensions in Flash Pro CC for testing and debugging before they have been signed and packaged?
We have a custom extension for Flash Pro developed in-house using the CS SDK that we've been using with flash pro CS5 and CS6 but we're having trouble getting it to work in CC and I'd like to run it locally in test/debug mode.
With flash pro CS6 and CS5 it was possible to test extensions by copying the output folder from flash builder into the CS Service Manager root folder (e.g. /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS6ServiceManager) and setting PlayerDebugMode to 1 in the CSXS preferences.
I've added the PlayerDebugMode=1 flag to com.adobe.CSXS.4.plist however, I can't find the equivalent service manager folder for Flash Pro CC to copy the extension into.
Is there a different folder to use for CC or is the process for testing extensions completely different? (are extensions written in the CS SDK even compatible with CC?)
I'm running Mac OS Lion.
Thanks,
Stephen

I am having trouble downloading an extension for flash, despite having the most up to date flash version for Adobe Manager Extension CC. What would cause this to happen?

I am having trouble downloading an extension for flash, despite having the most up to date flash version for Adobe Manager Extension CC. What would cause this to happen? It says I need to have flash 7 or higher. I have the most update flash available according to my browsers.

If you are using Flash Pro CC 2014, please update Extension Manager CC to 7.2.1. Then please confirm whether Flash is shown in the product panel of Extension Manager CC. If not, please refer to Re: Why can't I see InDesign CC in my Extension Manager CC.

Release notes for december 2013 update for Flash Pro CC

Hello Adobe.
Where are the release notes for the december 2013 update for Flash Pro CC? I just found this http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/release-note/release-notes-flash-pro-cc.html with just "contains critical bug fixes". What are they? Do i need them? Are they my submissions so that you don't want to tell other people?

HI infeter,
The following fixes have been done in the December update - #13.1.0.226
1) Fix for Multi-line Errors are not being reported in Flash to Flash Builder workflow
2) AIR for Android UI dialog: Shared runtime and emulator deployment options under Deployment section gets enabled on adding AIR4.0 SDK. This should not be enabled since we dont support shared runtime from AIR 3.9 onwards.
Also certain null checks were added to fix crashes based on crashes logs that were reported.
Thanks

How to update AIR SDK for Flash Pro CC?

The most recent info I can find is for Flash Pro CS6:

Does this work in Flash Pro CC?

Thanks Colin.
I was thinking of adding a comment to my previous post along the lines of, "You would think that Adobe could make this process easy." It appears that they could, and they have.

Native AIR extensions in Flash Pro

I understand that AIR 3.X for Android supports "AIR Native Extensions" written in Java.
Has anyone successfully used one from Flash Pro. I'd really love to see a working example from one of the Adobe samples such as their Gyroscope example at:
https://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/gyroscope.html
Thanks!

@relaxatraja
Thanks for the pointer to this excellent post. Worked like a charm. Note that even after updating the playerglobal.swc, you are not able to test the resulting swf in the IDE via 'Test Movie' [Ctrl-Enter] because the IDE does not use the installed stand alone flashPlayer, but instead a built-in one (for CS5 is version 10.1.52.14). It is not updatable, as far as I can tell. See http://swfhead.com/blog/?p=575 Testing via debug or in the actual standalone player or browser plugin works correctly.

Why can't we submit bug reports for Flash Pro?

I've been looking to submit some bug reports regarding CS5.5 Pro and there just isn't an option in the "Report a Bug/Feature Request" form. WHY not?? I paid for CS5.5 and autoformat breaks my code, but there's no way to report it.

You aren't the first to have a problem with the choices provided. It would be nice if they listed "Flash Pro" uniquely in the list of options at...
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
... since they dio for the rest of the Adobe products. But you should feel free to pick any one of them. I'd choose "Flash Authoring" since I've no idea what it is other than maybe something to do with Flash Pro.

Utilizing AIR Native Extensions in Flash Pro CS5.5

I'm trying to integrate Adobe's "Gyroscope" example of ANE to work from Flash Professional CS 5.5.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/g yroscope.html
Apparently, one has to use the somewhat crude "ADT" command-line tool to build an app that uses Native Extensions.
Unfortunately, I cannot get past the numerous errors ADT is throwing at me. The latest is:
unexpected failure: inputs not set
java.lang.IllegalStateException: inputs not set
          at com.adobe.air.ApplicationPackager.createPackage(ApplicationPackager.j ava:62)
          at com.adobe.air.ADT.parseArgsAndGo(ADT.java:556)
          at com.adobe.air.ADT.run(ADT.java:413)
          at com.adobe.air.ADT.main(ADT.java:463)
Unfortunately, I'm not an advanced developer, so I really don't know what any of that means. (But I'm sure if I can just get this one example to compile and run, I'll be better able to perform the necessary tasks in the future.)
Can someone PLEASE help me?
Thanks.
Mike

Cannot Type Full Serial Number for Flash Pro CS5.5 STUDENT

Flash Professional CS5.5 STUDENT & Teacher Edition has several letters in the beginning of the serial number unlike the standard releases. I have purchased my copy from Amazon.com and I have installed my copy fine once before but my computer crashed recently and now I cannot reinstall Flash Pro because it won't let me type letters into the serial form, only numbers. I have tried typing them normally, using shift, copy and pasting them... nothing. Is there any other way that I can input the serial number or fix whatever isn't letting me type letters?
Thanks,
Z

There are two "serial" numbers (the product number) that came on the product packaging.
The software is Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5 Student and Teacher Edition, purchased from Amazon.com and needed student verification to obtain the license.
^ [ I figured out what was wrong, but I'll just leave the information here for anyone in the future that may have short-term memory as well ]
I have just went through my records that I recovered from my laptop and it seems that the serial number on the product package DOES IN FACT have letters in it. But I think that I had to register it with Adobe and verify that I was a student before Adobe would give me my legitimate serial number that contained only numbers. So this is why there are tons of these threads about this that never go answered because the people asking and the people helping are both right and wrong at the same time. The students are trying to use the only serial that was provided to them, but it isnt the true serial. Maybe Adobe could be more clear that it isn't a serial number for the product underneath it? "Product Code" is synonymous with "Serial Number" to most people.
You use this code (the code with letters in it; the "product code") to contact Adobe and verify your status as a studen/teacher and then they give you the true serial number that is all numbers. Search your email for mail from Adobe to find your serial if you have already done this. I had completely forgotten how the process worked since it was a while ago.
Thanks for the help Mylenium, I hope this helps whoever comes across it in the future.

CS extension with Flash Pro

Hi everyone
Is it possible to make a CS extension with Flash professional instead of Flash Builder?

Short answer is no.
Extension Builder (based on Flash Builder) provids full support for extension development.
Besides, you can use CSSDK.

How to set Keyboard shortcuts for Flash Pro CS6?

I have started to use Flash Pro CS6, but my keyboard shortcuts such as F6 to insert a new Keyframe didn't work..I soon found that you could create your own Keyboard Shortcut list within the Flash application, and I am trying to enter F6 for a new Keyframe, but it only lets me enter one letter/number at a time and deletes the other one. I have made sure that F6 isn't in use. It now isn't, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

if no shortcut works, try resetting your flash pro preferences:
Hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) or Shift+Command+Option (Mac) when starting flash pro.

Please bring back FXG 2.0 export for Flash Pro CC 2014

Hi Adobe,
Flash Pro CC now supports SVG 1.1 export, please bring back FXG 2.0 export as well, here is the reason why:
Flash Pro CC can mainly export to Flash Runtime Based Content and HTML/JS Based Content, right?
For HTML/JS Based Content, we can export SVG for use.
For Flash Runtime Based Content, we should export FXG for use, it makes perfect sense!
Anyone seeing this thread, please reply +1 to agree what I said.

Hello 周戈,
first, the most here are users of Adobe's products, not Adobe's employees, ok sometimes someone of Adobe's staff risks a glimpse here at random.
One way, which may prove promising to interest Adobe's development team is to use the "wishform" and maybe your "please bring back ..." can serve as a suggestion. Here at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform, where you will find this: "Use this form to request new features or suggest modifications to existing features."
Good luck!
