Missing Flash Pro CC 2014 Properties Inspector?

I am a student and just downloaded a trial version of Flash Pro CC 2014. When adding a graphics symbol to the stage, I am unable to name instances. I was wondering whether the trial version is incomplete or whether the interface has just changed. My book Digital Media Primer show an interface including the Stage, Timeline, Library etc., but the pictures offer a different Properties window which includes a textbox allowing naming of particular instances. Can someone tell me how to name instances?
Thanks

you've never been able to assign instance names to graphics' symbols in the properties panel.
use a movieclip or button.

Missing content exporting from InDesign CC 2014 to Flash Pro CC 2014

Dear all,
to produce a larger number of similar animated swf's, I wanted to create all necessary text and graphic layers in InDesign CC 2014, then export as *.fla to Flash Pro CC 2014 for "bulk" animation.
Finally it should then just be a case of selecting the correct layers and publishing.
The problem: When exporting from InDesign to Flash, all layers are recognized but initially apart from the text layers they were shown as empty items without the content.
Rescaling the placed images in InDesign to be no larger than the final document helped to now also have the images when opening the exported *.fla in Flash.
I am still missing all other InDesign objects though, e.g. even a simple colored rectangular will not show in Flash.
Any help to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated. Searching for it only brought up a couple of tutorials that do not seem to have this issue.
Best regards
Christopher

I think that it's just a bug in InDesign. It happens with CS6 as well.

BUG: Flash Pro CC 2014 won't update to latest

I have a CC membership and have updated to Flash Professional CC 2014 on both my desktop and laptop, however whenever I open a FLA saved from my Dekstop, opened on my laptop, Flash Pro complains that the FLA was created with a newer version of Flash Pro! I have checked many times to see if maybe i forgot to update it, but nope... the Creative Cloud downloader app says it is up to date.
My laptop version of Flash Pro CC 2014 is 14.0.0.110
My desktop version of Flash Pro CC 2014 is 14.1.0.96
Why won't my laptop CC show a Flash update?

Hi,
If you have a purchased version of Flash Pro, can you send me your Adobe ID, location, and contact details (phone, email ID) over a private message? Click my picture and use the message option.
Thanks,

Flash Pro CC 2014 Crashes When Publishing with Air

While trying to publish my app with Flash Pro CC 2014 the program crashes. I'm using the current Beta version of AIR 15 (previous version had the same results) on a Mac (Yosemite OSX 10.10 beta 5, Not the public beta) . When I publish to just a swf file there is no problems. If I publish to Android, iOS or Desktop then Flash crashes. When the Adobe crash scene comes up I do submit the reports to Adobe. At the end I get a message telling me Adobe found a solution for the recent crash and to "click here" for further details. When I do it just goes to the Adobe home page with no help. Is there a solution or workaround? I've been using one of my other machines that has Mavericks on it for publishing for the time being. I would like to work at one machine and not transferring back-and-forth. Any help will be great!

The updates are not available @ http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html#flashCC
The updates are available through Creative Cloud desktop app or through in-app update option.
You can also try by launching flash professional CC 2014 version you have installed and go to Help->Updates. This should ideally do it.
Incase, it is not updating after this, can you please let me know the type of Creative Cloud license that you own?
Do you belongs to an environment where Installation / update of applications are managed by IT team? In that case, please check with your IT team for how to get the latest update.

Flash Pro CC 2014 crashes on debugging in iOS SDK 8.0

Hi,
Flash Pro CC 2014 crashes on debugging in iOS SDK 8.0
This is the path to the SDK:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SD Ks/iPhoneSimulator.sdk
Is also crashes on:
same path/iPhoneSimulator8.0.sdk
Anyone knows a solution to this?
Had the problem before with the former Flash Pro CC and older SDK.
But didnot really need it.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

They are looking in to it. Follow this thread:

Flash components and the properties inspector

Don't know if any of you have had experience in creating
components that
can have properties set using the properties inspector or
not, but here
we go.
I have several components which all have a 'data' property
that is an
Object in which a developer can store arbitrary data.
I have set this up in the component so that it will display
in the
properties inspector, thusly:
[Inspectable(name="Data")]
private var _data:Object;
Now, it does indeed appear in the inspector, but when I click
on the
field it brings up a box which then doesn't allow me to enter
any data
(see screenshot:
http://www.moloko.f2s.com/filetransfer/componentParams.png)
However, if I right-click on the symbol in the library, go to
Component
Definition, then click on the Data property in the Value
column, it
brings up a box that's a little bit more what I was expecting
in that it
contains the '+' and '-' buttons to allow me to add/delete
data, and
also some up/down arrows to allow me to move the data around
in the list
(see screenshot:
http://www.moloko.f2s.com/filetransfer/componentDefinition.png)
Anyone know what's going on with this? Is this a bug in the
Flash IDE or
am I doing something wrong??

The flashComponents are standard AS2 components, and you can look up their APIs in the Flash documentation. Here is the button docs:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=00001977.html#3654189
Looking at that, there is a getStyle() method, and I just tested it out:
put sprite(1).getStyle("borderStyle")
-- "inset"
put sprite(1).getStyle("fontFamily")
-- "_sans"
put sprite(1).getStyle("color")
-- 734012.0000
I'm not real sure what that means (probably the hex color converted to a float), but you can change the color like this:
sprite(1).setStyle("color","red")
And here is a page that lists all the styles that are defined:

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!

My Flash Pro CC 2014 freezes while I'm working every single time and I can't figure out why

I just bought Flash Pro CC about a month ago, and every time I open it and start using it, it freezes and I can't click on anything in the program or even close out of it normally. I have to use Task Manager and force it closed. I doubt that its my hardware, as I ran previous Flash Pros on it in the past with no problem. Is anyone else having this issue?

You might try to remove the preferences file from Flash, but I don't think that will solve the problem. You may need to resort to a clean installation: Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Missing Align Attribute & HTML in Properties Inspector in CS6

Greetings,
I have a couple of unusual issues. I just went to use Dreamweaver CS6 for the first time and noticed a couple of missing things.
One I cannot see the align attribute to align my image left or right (I just hand coded it for now). Strange?
Secondly is there not a CSS and HTML inspector in the properties panel? I only show one properties panel now.
I tried to upload a screenshot showing the missing inspectors and the missing align attribute but with no success...
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions?
Thanks!
Martin

The point that I was trying to make is that if it's still used, why get rid of it?
With each new release, modern web browsers move one step closer to realizing full standards compliance. Eventually deprecated code will be ignored by all browsers such that <align> & <center> will have no effect other than throwing errors into the HTML. DW is targeted mainly at web designers who want standards compliant code; not e-mail designers.
Anyhow, so what are these other tools you mention for email?

Adobe Flash Pro CC 2014 fuzzy Audio

when ever i import audio into Flash and play it by flame it sounds completely normal.
however when i select Ctrl+Enter and watch the animation in SWf
the audio sounds fuzzy and blurry.
but its not out of sync
for example.
i downloaded these two bits of audio using: Free YouTube to MP3 converter
Scary Sound Effects - YouTube
and Pokemon 'Bridged Episode 19: Family - Elite3 - YouTube
i put them in Audacity, cut them so i could keep the bits audio i wanted and saved the audio as MP3 files
importing them int Flash and playing them with my animation? they sounds exactly the same.
until i play them as SWF files
now they sound like this: (sorry that its all FNAF's animations )

Hey Mitch, Thanx for your reply.
I don't it's false. The reason for that is whenever I get that "audio dropout" event, adobe reacts really slow and I can't edit fluently.
I've been busy the whole day trying to figure out what the problem is. I contacted adobe support and the remotely accessed my computer and see for themselves.
We opened the activity monitor to see what's happening. Monitoring system memory revealed something interesting. The free memory dropped low after working for 20 minutes. when the "swap used" reached 5gb I got an "audio dropped" event. So we purged the memory with the terminal application.
I restarted my computer and reopened Adobe premiere pro CC and started editing. After a few minutes it gave me an audio drop event again. Whenever I get them, premiere reacts slowly.

How can I set up a keyboard shortcut for 'Remove Tween' in Flash Pro CC 2014?

I'm trying to set this up, as I have in previous versions of Flash, but the 'Remove Tween' command (among other commands) is not available in the Keyboard Shortcut window.
Is there some other way to add this shortcut?
Thanks,
George

I don't think this had a keyboard shortcut even before (checked in CS6). There's an alternative though.
1. Create a JSFL file with following code and save it in the commands folder as 'Remove Tween'.
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().setFrameProperty('tweenType', 'none');
2. Now goto Edit Menu > Keyboard Shortcuts..
3. Search for 'Remove Tween' and assign a keyboard shortcut to it.
Now everytime you press the assigned key - jsfl script is executed which essentially removes the tween from selected frame. (works for Classic and Shape tween but not Motion Tweens)

Default Windows font scaling renders the Flash Pro UI unusable

If I have font scaling on my laptop set to anything other than 100% (125% is the Windows default for comfy-to-read text) the Flash Pro UI is also scaled, and the content within each panel is cropped, so that you miss scrollbars, buttons, etc.
The only way round this that I can find is to set the global font scaling to 100%, but that makes it very difficult to read all other apps.
Does everyone get this?
Cheers,
Dave

System: Windows 8.1
Flash Pro CC 2014.2 (Feb 2015)
Computer: Thinkpad X230T
Resolution: 1366x768 (doesn't matter as it fails even when used in external monitor 1920x1200 res)
Windows Display Scaling: 125%
The scaling issue makes Flash unusable in 125% display scaling. Setting the scaling to 100% and 150% works fine.
