Flash CS5.5[Publish Settings]: How to include custom Metadata tags in swf?

In Flash CS5, the 'Publish Settings' for the fla had an 'Export SWC' checkbox that took care of that.
The option is missing. Why was it removed and how can that be done in 5.5?

Thanks sinious, but, it doesn't work.
Let me elaborate on what I want to do:
I'm trying to create a swf in Flash CS5.5, that's using a flex library (swc) that relies on Metadata tags (anotations).
I need to use the metadata tags in my as3 code (in the fla), and They need to be compiled into the swf (by Flash CS5.5 compiler...).
Although, when I load that swf, the metadata tags aren't compiled into it (I'm using describeType to check if tags are available in the swf).
In flex, I would use the '-kepp-as3-metadata+=' compiler setting to do that, in Flash CS4 & CS5 I used the 'Export SWC' in the publish settings, but that's removed (WHY???).
Checking XMP Metadata didn't change that, the tags are still not included in the compiled swf.
Anyone?

Getting Flash CS5 to publish an AIR 1.5 file

*** For the record, I just want to say that I think it is totally absurd that Adobe shipped Flash CS5 with the ability to ONLY publish AIR 2.0 apps...which hasn't been publicly released yet. I've been working on an AIR app for several weeks and needed to upgrade from Flash CS3 to CS5 to take advantage of the new Text Layout Framework. Now, my app can't be installed by my customers because I can't publish for a version of AIR they can access!! How this decision got made baffles me. Adobe needs to be on top of their game these days and this blunder makes it that much more difficult to defend the Flash/AIR platform that I love so much. Flame over.****
Now, for the workaround I've discovered. To get Flash CS5 to publish an AIR 1.5 file, I first published an AIR 2.0 app. Then I went into the app descriptor xml file and changed the version from 2.0 to 1.5 <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5"> Then I deleted the xml nodes in that same file that are specific to AIR 2.0 (<visible>, <fullScreen>, <autoOrients>, <aspectRatio>, <renderMode>). I locked the app descriptor file so it couldn't be changed by the next publish. Then I deleted the previously created .air file and the .swf file. I then republished the app from CS5 and it was able to install under the publically available version of AIR (1.5.3.9130).

@mattwade, thanks for posting this. Is it possible to open up your flash project inside of Flash Builder to convert to 1.5?

Correct Flash CS6 iOS publish settings for iPhone?

My programmer and I are trying to publish an iOS app for iPhone from Flash cs6 and are being rejected because "Your app did not run at iPhone resolution and/or 2x iPhone 3GS resolution when reviewed on iPad. The contents of your app are not displayed within the confines of the screen."
In Flash CS6 iOS publish settings there is an option to export for iPad Only, iPhone Only, and for iPad and iPhone. iTunes Connect is sending us a screenshot that shows what we see when we publish a development IPA file using the iPad and iPhone setting. But the IPA file we submitted to them was published using the iPhone Only settings which when viewed on the iPad2 shows up inside the little iPhone 1X frame and can be expanded to 2X as well. I believe this is what they are saying is not happening when they do the same.
Has anyone else who uses Flash had this issue? If so what stage size and what publish settings should be used when trying to create an iPhone only app?
Thanks in advance, Patrick

iPhone only app should be published with stage size:
640x960 for portrait view
960x640 for landscape view
... if the app are going to be fullscreen.

How to Including custom text in the step "User Decision"

Hi All
Please help me in this regards I got problem
How to Including custom text in the step "User Decision"
Regards
Poonam
Edited by: Julius Bussche on Feb 2, 2009 1:59 PM
Please use the corect forum, meaningfull subject titles and use the search before asking questions

Hi Poonam,
If I understood your problem correctly...
When you create a user decision a screen will appear.
In the decision tab under Title you can give your custom text.
Even if you want to give some variable (value of which will be determined at runtime) you can give that as well.
Like you have created a container for BOR objects MAT_DETAIL, in that object there is a field MATERIAL.
You can define your custom text as below:
Title: Would you like to create new material or display material &
Parameter 1: &MAT_DETAIL.MATERIAL&;
In Title you can give as max. as 4 &(ampersand). And each & will be replaced by each Parameter at runtime in same sequence.
In parameters you use to select the container defined by you earlier.
Hope this will help.

How to hide custom metadata field in custom profies ??

hi,
how to hide custom metadata dropdown list in a custom profile based on choosing the security group.
ex: if i choose xxx security group, custom metadata dropdown should not appeared, for remaining security groups it should be visible.
so, Based on criteria, custom metadata should be hidden in custom profiles..
how to achieve it ?? where and how to configure ??
Detail guidance should be required
Thanks in advance

You cannot do this through profiles alone if I understand you correctly.
If I load a check in page, choose a security group and at this moment want a custom metadata field to disappear then you are beyond what profiles offers.
Rules evaluation can only be based on information that is know at the time the page is requested. That means in order for this to work you would need to make security group an non editable field and have a set of profiles for each security group.
The alternative is to customize the UI with soem DHTML or AJAX

Flash CS5.5 publishing incomplete SWF

Hello,
I have an FLA that has 20 scenes in it. When I publish it, the resulting SWF plays fine up to scene 16. At that point, I get the streaming audio, but the animation just stops. The scenes after 16 are empty.
This is a simple, voice narrated movie that is linear. The buttons at the bottom are AS2 pause/play/nextscene/prevscene. It works fine till I get to scene 16 and that's where it seems like it's just incomplete.
I noticed when it's publishing that the progress bar seems to get a bit over halfway and then the publishing dialog just disappears as if it's finished. It doesn't move the progress bar all the way to 100%.
If I do a test scene each one of those scenes publishes fine and plays fine inside Flash CS5.5. This only happens when I publish the whole thing. If I copy the timeline of scene 16 and paste it into a new movie, that single scene also publishes and plays fine. Again, it's only when it is publishing all 20 scenes.
Anyone run into this?
I have a Mac Pro with 10 gigs RAM and OS X Lion.
Thanks!
Scot

OK, I found on another thread that Flash has a 16,000 frame limit in any SWF. That was my problem.

Flash CS5 SCORM publishing at 100% error

I upgraded from CS3 to CS5 and have just tried to publish a CS5 fla using the SCORM 1.2 and the SCORM 2002 templates at 100%. They are postage stamp size in any IE browser. If I publish the same fla using a "flash only" or even "AICC" template, the size is correct and enlarge and shrink with the browser window size. Also, if use a SCORM template but I change the option from 100% size to the actual pixel size of the fla the IE browser shows the content correctly but is NOT scalable as required.
Note that this problem did NOT exist in Flash CS3.
I require SCORM so that I can use bookmarking in an LMS.
I noticed an earlier answer that resolved the problem with "overflow:hidden" in the html file ... but the SCORM templates do not have this text and so the same fix will not work.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I tried overlaying the latest AIR as sinious suggested, but that only changed my error message by adding the line about ADT as in the original post.

How to include custom application.xml in JDev9i project

Can anybody explain to me how to include a custom application.xml file when deploying to an .ear file? I need to include application wide security roles, and I can't see where in Jev9i how to do this.
After searching this forum, I see that jdev9i can't include the orion-application.xml, but I want to include just the standard J2EE application.xml. Is this possible?
Thanks,
matt

The standard application.xml file unfortunately can't be customized in JDev 9.0.2. The reasons why this capability was left out of JDev 9.0.2 are same reasons why the other EAR-level XML files were excluded. The OTN thread
Re: Regarding 11i and E-business suite
has a summary of those reasons, which you've probably seen. We know this is an area in need of improvement and will be adding this functionality in the JDev 9.0.3 release. Until then, you'll have to go with a work-around like an Ant build file, batch file, Java application, or some other kind of script.
Below is a sample Java application which can be used to insert <security-role> elements into an EAR file's application.xml. Modify the main() method to customize for your purposes, and put xmlparserv2.jar on the classpath (in a JDev project, add the "Oracle XML Parser v2" library):

How to include custom css in js file

You can use this in your view

MyCustomCSS is just an alias to call the css file
