InDesign Panels created with Extension Builder 3 get collapsed upon relaunch of InDesign

InDesign Panels created with Extension Builder 3 get collapsed upon relaunch of InDesign and you have to corner drag them open to see the panel. This bug is very annoying. Does anyone know a work around?

I found how to fix this.
There is a hidden XML file called manifest.xml located in you project folder here:
../.staged-extension/CSXS/manifest.xml
In that file there is a section called <Geometry>
By default there is an entry for size. You can add sections for min and max panel size values.
<MaxSize>
     <Height>enter max height size here</Height>
     <Width>enter max width size here</Width>
</MaxSize>
<MinSize>
     <Height>enter min height size here</Height>
     <Width>enter min width size here</Width>
</MinSize>

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.

Porting the Flex Project with Extension Builder 2.1 to CC(2014)

Hello,
I am trying to port the Flex project developed in Flash Builder 4.6 with Extension builder 2.1, to InDesign CC (2014).
As per the SDK help it mentions I can use the same environment mentioned above to port the project. But when I try it is giving error " This extension cannot be installed, it requires InDesign version in range of inclusively between 9.0 and 9.9.
Do I need to set anything before compiling the plugin for CC(2014)? Or do I need to port in some other environment? If yes where can I get the details of other environment?
Thanks for the help in advance.
Regards
Farzana.

You want to use your flex project in a CC2014 application? If yes, you have to rewrite your complete project to a HTML5 extension as Flex support was dropped in CC2014 (and all upcoming releases).
"Flash/Flex/AIR extensions run in APE (Adobe Player for Embedded). This product is deprecated, and, as stated above, will be removed from Creative Cloud products, starting in the middle of 2014. This means that developers must migrate their extensions to HTML5 if they want to continue to support them in Creative Cloud (CC) applications. Flash-based extensions will continue to run as before in versions CS5.x and CS6 of their host applications."

Trace() not working with embedded SWFs created with Flash Builder

I have just migrated to Flash Builder 4.5 with the 4.5.1 SDK.
I have an application that loads a lot of child SWFs into it - some of which are created with Flash, some are created with Flash Builder.
I am noticing now that my trace() statements that are called from within SWFs produced with Flash Builder that are loading as child SWFs into my main SWF are NOT appearing. However, trace() statements called from within SWFs produced with Flash that are loading as child SWFs into my main SWF ARE appearing.
This is an extremely major problem and has short-circuited my debugging/development.
Any recommendations, workarounds, or suggestions?

If the child SWFs were created by performing an "Export Release Build", then trace() statements would be omitted.
You can control this by setting the -omit-trace-statements compiler argument (in Project properties -> Flex Compiler -> Additional Compiler Arguments).

My created extension built in extension builder 1.5, when installed in inDesign CS6, shows nothing

Hi
Hope everyone is enjoying work.
I created my own extension in CS extension builder 1.5 for inDesign. It runs fine in debug mode with indesign CS5 and CS5.5 but when I tried to run this extension in debug mode with indesign CS6, the extension shows nothing in it. All UI components like input fields, buttons, texts etc are not shown. It stops me debugging the application.
Can anybody help me out?
Thanks and best regards.
Sal

Are you now using Extension Builder 2.0, or still 1.5?
If you're still using 1.5 then have you set PlayerDebugMode for CSXS 3? Normally CSXS will prevent extensions that are unsigned or have invalid signatures from loading for security reasons. Setting PlayerDebugMode turns that protection mechanism off, and allows the loading of unsigned extensions. Extension Builder 1.5 will automatically turn on PlayerDebugMode for CS5/5.5 (CSXS 2.0/2.5), but not for CS6 (CSXS 3.0), which was released after Extension Builder 1.5. You can turn on PlayerDebugMode manually though:
On Windows: Add a PlayerDebugMode registry key with value 1 under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\CSXS.3\
On Mac: Set the PlayerDebugMode key to 1 in the plist file at ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.CSXS3.plist
Let me know if that solves the issue.
Best wishes,

Photoshop cc 2014 with Extension Builder 3 not working properly.

I can't get even the most basic panel to work in CC 2014. I have created a Default Extension Builder project in eclipse. I then follow this instructions Adobe Extension Builder and Creative Cloud 2014, but when I try to debug it, it doesn't work. The panel shows up (with nothing in it) but says "Cannot complete command because the extension could not be loaded."
I have created an extension for CC, then changing everything according to the link above, tried to start it in CC 2014 I get the same error, even though it worked in CC.
Does anyone know how I can fix this problem or what is causing it?
If not, could anyone provide me with an empty panel project made in Extension Builder that works for you, so that I can maybe figure out what the differences are.
Regards,
Mattias

I think so, yo, only add the PlayerDebugMode like this right?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

ZXP Not Created in Extension Builder 2.1 for an Extension Created in Extension Builder 1.5

Hi all,
We originally started creating InDesign extensions "manually" several years ago, as we did not yet want to pay for the original Extenson Builer 1.0. We produced our ZXP files from the contents of the bin-debug folder using Fabien Bizot's Java-based "ZXPPackager" utililty (http://www.lafabrick.com/),
When we finally installed Extension Builder 1.5, we had some problems creating ZXP with the built-in exporter for Abode Application Extension. Since the compiler put all the files into the bin-debug folder still, I could still use ZXPPackager.
We just upgraded to Extension Builder 2.1. For any legacy project, whether it was still "manually created" (i.e., without even Extenson Builder 1.5) and I copied the sources into a new Extension Builder project, or created in Extenson Builder 1.5 and converted to Extension Bulder 2.1, the Export to ZXP does not work. I see the compiler is creating a bin-release folder, then it disappears, and no ZXP is to be found. Since bin-debug no longer has all files in it like it used to, the ZXPPackager can't find what it's looking for and can't make a ZXP - so I am stuck.
Please - help!

I have an update, and would greatly appreciate anyone's help:
Upon further investigation, the issue is not the Extension itself (regardless of whether it was created newly in EB2.1, in EB1.5, or created "manually" by building my own manifest, etc.).
The issue is that there are two library projects whose inclusion as project referennce in any Extension Builder project (regardless of whem/how it was created) causes the EB project not to produce a ZXP file using the Export wizard.
I tried deleting the 2 library projects, creating them anew empty - and they could be referenced successfully. I added back all the source files and this solved the problem, as of yesterday. Today, I tried building the ZXPs again, and it stopped working. I should mention that it appears that when the Export did work, it seemed to be changing the referenced project somehow. I noticed that they were given .mxi files, which I thought should not be created for a non EB project.
I should add (i'm about to post a seperate discussion) the Flash Builder error log is giving me a ton of Eclipse errors for many actions. Is this "normal"? By that, I mean is everyone getting those warnings and errors?
All help greatly appreciated.

Flash Builder 4.7 with Extension Builder 2.1

A have license of Creative Cloud but in Flash Builder 4.7 the Extension Builder 2.1 wont work, in install say to me this "Adobe Extension Builder 2.1 includes Flash Builder 4.6", see image:

All is using Windows 7, Creative Cloud (updated) and Extension Builder 2.1. I see Extension Builder create folder for Flash Builder 4.6 but just don't work, i search in forum and don't have solution, some guys seeing work installing 4.6, in Creative Cloud don't have Flash Builder 4.6 for download like is in Photoshop, see:
If just add this combo in Flash Builder with option of download 4.6 working for Creative Cloud fix this problem.

So, i try this and more...
1° Download my version:
2° CleanUp all registry for "Extension Builder", "ExtensionBuilder", "Extension_Builder", "Flash Builder", "FlashBuilder" and "Flash_Builder", after this, CCleaner...
3° Install, error:
4° Link file? Interesting, look in depth... Try install manually:

6° Ok, maybe work, because i never use this classes, so look more if i have serial number, oh! I Have serial number for my Extension Builder 2.1! @_@
7° A light at the end of the tunnel! Insert in Flash Builder and...
You just fu** kidding of me...

Problems deploying ear file created with ant build script

Hi All,
I'm using Jdeveloper 11G and Weblogic 10.3. When I build my application and run it within Jdeveloper, it works fine. However, we have a requirement to run ANT build script and create a deployable .ear file that can be manually deployed to any Weblogic Server.
I created my ant build script and it compiles/builds fine - the .ear file looks good. However, when I attempt to deploy it, it fails with
javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet for servlet Faces Servlet could not be loaded because the requested class was not found in the classpath .
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.

I am not sure how to tell weblogic where to find the classes needed. I have a pretty huge classpath used when compiling - should I be putting the classpath in the manifest (?) - I don't think I should need to include the .jar files manually in the .ear file - since all the libraries should already be available in weblogic - or is that a misconception?
Please help!!

I answered my own question -
I had to manually add the following to the WEB-INF/lib to get the error to go away:
${ORACLE_HOME}/modules/javax.jsf_1.1.0.0_1-2.jar and
${ORACLE_HOME}/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jsf_1.2.9/glassfish.jsf_1.0.0.0_1-2-15.jar and
${ORACLE_HOME}/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jsf_1.2.9/glassfish.jstl_1.2.0.1.jar
that solved my problem. However, I think it'd be great if I could somehow just specify (in the weblogic-application.xml maybe?) that my application is using the above modules without having to copy the jar files into my WEB-INF/lib - any suggestions?
Thanks

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

Cfreport cutting off lines on multiple pages created with report builder

I have a report built with report builder and it appears that if you set the body to "stretch with overflow" that cfreport will "cut off" a line or two every time it paginates see attached for a simplified version of the report, I have removed all but the body on this (actual report has a watermark, report header, page header and page footer ...the problem is pretty apparnt with this scaled down version as you can see it's missing text from one page to the next ..any ideas/suggestions/known bug?? You can see a sample of the issue here: http://www.arroyoc.com/onlybody.pdf

Hi Helen,
As per my understanding, I think this issue is caused by width size is not appropriate in the report. To narrow down this issue, please make sure that Body Width + Left margin + Right margin <= (Page width).
If the tablix is a matrix, because of the column group can expand to multiple columns, we should according to the following rule:
Body Width + Extra expanded column width + Left margin + Right margin <= (Page width).
Besides, please make sure there are no extra page breaks before each “R”. To check whether the issue is caused by the letter “R”, we can try to use another field to replace the Company Name field.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
