Missing Menu Options in Flash Builder

I encountered a mystery surrounding several missing menu options in  one of my Flash Builder workspaces recently. I wanted to create a new  skin for a List control so I right-clicked on my skins folder and looked  for the New MXML Skin option. And I looked. And I looked some more. But  it wasn't there.
I happened to have another copy of Flash Builder open in another  workspace so I gave it a try in that project. Sure enough, the New MXML  Skin option was there along with a couple of other options that were  missing in the first workspace. Here's a list of the menu options  missing from the File --> New menu in this workspace:
Flash Professional Project
MXML Item Renderer
MXML Skin
I'm not sure why those menu options went missing but I was able to  work around it by recreating the workspace. I simply created a new  workspace, copied all of the projects into the new workspace folder and  then imported all of my projects into the new folder. I then had a full  set of menu items.
I poked around a bit trying to figure out what went wrong but wasn't  able to find a conclusive answer. My best guess is that it has something  to do with the fact that I was previously running the Flex 4 beta and  that's when I created the workspace with the problem. I compared the  workspace .metadata folder and, curiously, there were 25 folders inside  the .plugins folder for the problem workspace but only 12 for the newly  created one.

This is an eclipse thingy, menus get cached in the workspace' metadata. If you try using a newer build of Flash Builder with a workspace from the previous version, you may notice this behavior.
The workaround is to create a new workspace and import all projects there.

  • SRP521W Administration - Missing Menu Options.

    Hi
    Second post, I have a new SRP 527W, I've run through the initial config and am looking at the features available, in comparison the the PDF Admin Guide I seem to have a number of options missing from the menu.
    My router only shows Time setup & Switch setting, these look like the top and bottom items ... so I'm missing around 10 items ... including the ability to upgrade the firmware.
    According to te status page my router has "1.01.09 (001) Apr 7 2010".
    Help much appreciated.

    Hello Rogelio,
    I too was mystified by missing menu items - specifically looking for Logging setup.
    I was using the cisco logon and as you say this brings up the quick interface.
    My problem is that the admin/admin is not accepted ie is being rejected as Invalid User Name or Password.
    The 527W was purchased through Telstra in Australia and was delivered with Firmware 1.0.17 (VP002) Oct 8 2010 - this is also a mystery as there does not seem to be any reference to this firmware level anywhere.
    Your help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Charles Rudder
    P.S.  Found a hint in another post that admin/admin only works on initial access after the 527W is reset to Factory Defaults.  This worked! Quite a strange way of doing things....
    I am still curious about the Firmware level.

  • How to enable commenting for Adobe Reader users--missing menu option?

    According to the help file, I can enable commenting in Acrobat Pro X so that Adobe Reader users can use annotation and commenting tools.  The help file says:
    "In an open PDF, choose Comments > Enable For Commenting In Adobe Reader, and then save the PDF.:"
    However, all is see on my menubar is:
    According to the help file, I *should* see something like the following:
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat Pro X.  I have installed Acrobat Pro X on a machine that has never had Acrobat Pro installed on it.  Each time I see only the shortened version of menu options.
    So, why do I only see File, Edit, View, Window and Help?  Where are  the other menu items, such as Comments, Forms, Tools, etc?  Is there  something I need to do to enable them?

    *Thank you*.  That worked.  How odd that the help file was out-of-date with my version of Acrobat.  Thanks you again!

  • HP 1317 - permissions and missing menu options - any ideas?

    I've just installed that latest drivers from August 2006 for the HP 1317 (All in one) from their website and have a couple of problems.
    The dropdown in my print dialog shows:
    Copies & Pages
    Layout
    Scheduler
    Paper handling
    Colorsync
    Cover page
    Safari
    Summary
    There is no way to set the print quality (b&w, best/faster etc) any more.
    Secondly, Verify Permissions in Disk Utility after the driver install shows loads of HP drivers with incorrect permissions. I have a feeling that if I fix these then I will be greeted with one of the popup menu options turning into hp_131 .. something with a score line through it. This has happened before but I don't want to try again!
    This option has been OK before but I'd like to know how to get it back. Do I have to restart after installing new drivers?
    Thanks in advance.

    I guess I need to add some clarification to my problem.  The issue is not within the forum itself, rather in Acrobat Pro v9.3.2 (Windows).
    When I open Acrobat Pro (without holding the Shift key down) some of the menu options are not available.  For example:
      Forms > Start Form Wizard [not present]
      Forms > Manage Form Data > [no sub menu options present]
    Additionally, when I open Acrobat Pro (without holding the Shift key down) and select, from the main menu bar, "Edit > Preferences", I receive the following error message:
      Failed to load an application resource (internal error).
    I have looked at doing a repair, but the only option in the Add/Remove Programs is to "Remove".

  • Missing menu option?

    Can anyone help? I have no delete option in my Media / Pictures menu so the only way I can delete pics is when attached to the computer. I think it was there when I first got the phone but somewhere along the way it has disappeared! Also I get a CS pop up in a box in top right corner when looking at the pics, does anyone know what this is please?

    What is your Operating System loaded to your device?
    Look at Options > About, third line down beginning with a "v.5.xxx"
    What is yours? It will say MORE than just 5.0.1, I promise.
    Now, do this, With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery AND the Media Card.
    Wait five minutes.
    Now, reinsert the Media Card correctly, AND reinsert the battery to reboot.
    After the device reboots fully, give it five minutes for the device to complete the scan of the Media Card.
    Open your Media > Pictures, and do you still have NO delete option?
    If still still there, look at the properties of the image. Is is locked for some reason?

  • How can I get to the compiler arguments in Flash Builder 4.6?

    Howdy!
    So far I've been unable to locate any information that could help me with my task. The ultimate goal is to build my project's SWF with mxmlc. I was not able to figure it out and thought I'd install Flash Builder in the hopes of being able to get to the compiler arguments. No luck.
    First, I'm not the lead on the building of the SWF. This is done by another person via the Eclipse plugin; her hard drive crashed last night too. In fact I'm not a Flash developer. I'm coming at this from a Build Infrastructure perspective.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers,

  • Flash Builder 4.6 - How can I keep unit test classes out of the finished swc?

         I have a library of code I'm building and I'm working on unit testing but I have a major issue. When my finished swc compiles no matter what I do it includes the unit test classes as part of the intellisense if you load the swc via flash. The classes aren't really in the swc since if you just try and import them they'll come up undefined. They only appear to go into the intellisense for the swc. Does anyone know how can I keep this from happening in the finished source? Currently my folder setup is like this in flash builder.
    src\main - source documents for the library to get compiled
    src\mock - mock class area for unit testing
    src\test - unit test classes
         In the project Properties panel > the first tab of my Flex Library Build path I have selected only the src\main folder for the classes to inlude in the library. No other folder paths are selected.
    The "Flex Library Build Path" doesn't change my results with any setting.
    Thanks,

  • Flash Builder 4.6 Mac OS X Subclipse support

    I'm having a tough time getting Subclipse 1.8.x installed on Flash Builder 4.6 on Mac OS X 10.7.2, and having a tough time finding straight answers. Can anyone verify that Subclipse 1.8.x does not install/work on this configuration? If Subclipse 1.8.x doesn't work, what versions of Subclipse do work?
    The main stumbling block seems to be that SVNKit doesn't appear for installation on the Install New Software… option in Flash Builder. This is needed since JavaHL does not work for Subclipse on the Mac.
    For the record, I'm roughly following the installation directions from here, but substituting http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.8.x for the server site:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/jasonsj/2010/03/installing_subclipse_in_flash_builder_4.html
    According to this informal message, svnkit is not yet compatible with Subclipse 1.8:
    http://svn.haxx.se/subusers/archive-2011-10/0066.shtml
    My goal is to get a built-in svn client that works with subversion 1.7.x. If there are alternatives, please let me know!

    OK, the latest SVNKit only support Subversion 1.6.5 (http://svnkit.com/documentation.html), so Subclipse 1.6 is the latest version supported.
    Rats. I'll have to use a separate svn client just to work with Subversion 1.7 repositories.

  • Flash Builder 4.5 can't find Flash imports

    Hi everyone,
    Not sure if this question has been answered elsewhere in the forum but I'm using Flash Pro CS5.5 together with Flash Builder 4.5 which are supposed to integrate well (I'm led to believe anyway).
    After importing my Flash Pro project and opening up my class files in Flash Builder 4.5 I note that all the Flash namespaces/imports can't be found. I'm at a loss as to why this as the import process seems to be a straighforward process.
    Am using the Flex 4.5 SDK.
    Anyone else get this and, if so, did anyone manage to resolve it?
    Any pointers would be much appreciated.
    Sincere thanks.
    Jas

    Oh, and I forgot to mention that I get the same stupid error for this code which worked perfectly in FB3:
    for (var key: Object in Event_MouseDown_Callbacks) (key as Function)(sender == null ? this : sender, flashEvent, Event_MouseDown_Callbacks[key]);
    I get the error for (key as Function). This code is within a Function of mine.
    As for my original post, I just re-tested that issue in FB3 and there, when I hit . (dot) after the cast, it CORRECTLY LISTS all the members of the G3Widget Class.
    I've looked in the options of Flash Builder 4.5 for an hour trying to see why it behaves like it does. No luck. And it's probably not an option. It's just that, by default, it doesn't list the members of the type after you cast it, which, in my opinion, is a HORRIBLE mistake. I'm going back to FB 3.

  • Starting iOS development with Flash Builder 4.6

    Hi guys,
    I want to start iOS development with Flash Builder 4.6. I have iPad 2 with iOS 6 installed (latest version available).
    I was following this tutorial step by step: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/mobileapps/WS064a3073e805330f6c6abf312e7545f65e-8000.html #WSe4e4b720da9dedb5-27e02e9a12ee20e4a60-7fff
    As a part of it I also did this:

    Installed AIR SDK version 3.4.0.2540 as for 4.5 (I have 4.6) - http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/error-run-debug-deploy-ios.html
    I try Now I am getting the follwoing errors:
    Error occurred while packaging the application:
    SDK is missing file /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/lib/aot/lib/AIRInterpreter
    Error occurred while packaging the application:
    SDK is missing file /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/lib/aot/bin/ld64/i686-apple-darwin9-ld64
    Required files are missing indeed. But where can I find them if AIR SDK doesn't have them? What should I do now?

    All the files in lib/aot/ are part of the AIR sdk.
    You'll have to overlay the AIR sdk on top of the Flex SDK (which comes with FlashBuilder).
    On windows, simply copy-paste the AIR folder on the Flex SDK folder. (merge the two folders)
    On mac, use a command line and ditto the AIR sdk folder on Flex SDK folder.

  • Flash Builder 4.5 Doesn't Know How To Cast?!

    I just upgraded from FB 3 and I am starting to feel very disappointed. Fonts look horrible (antialising-wise) and code which worked perfectly now acts weird. Case in question:
    Dirt simple: I got a class called G3Widget with a property named Text.
    trace(G3Widget(sender).Text);
    This code COMPILES and RUNS successfully. HOWEVER:
    1. I get a warning on it: Access of undefined property Text
    2. I get no code assist: when I hit the . (dot) after the (sender) I get no code assist with properties of the Widget Class.
    What's wrong? I can't believe that FB 4.5 doesn't do what FB3 did.

    Oh, and I forgot to mention that I get the same stupid error for this code which worked perfectly in FB3:
    for (var key: Object in Event_MouseDown_Callbacks) (key as Function)(sender == null ? this : sender, flashEvent, Event_MouseDown_Callbacks[key]);

  • How do I make Flash Builder use cuddled bracing?

    Hi
    Over the weekend I signed up to Creative Cloud on a 12 month subscription. My IDE of choice for around 7 years now has been FlashDevelop but since Flash Builder is one of the available applications on Creative Cloud I decided to download it and give it a try.
    Upon opening the application, much to my horror I discovered that by default it uses next line bracing - a style I just do not like. No problem, I thought, I will just change the preferences to use cuddled bracing which is something every IDE on earth lets you do.
    So it turns out there's no easy option in Flash Builder to do that. No tick-box, no drop-down. What you have instead is a bunch of templates that you can manually change to look the way you want.
    The problem is, I've changed every ActionScript template and every file template to use cuddled bracing and yet when I create a new ActionScript project the damn thing STILL has next line bracing in the constructor. Just what does this application want from me?
    Right now this is a deal-breaker for me and until this is fixed I won't even start a project using Flash Builder. Could someone please tell me what you have to do to get cuddled bracing enabled throughout?
    Thanks

    Hey man this plugin is great - thanks for the tip! I have it formatting my classes on save and it does an excellent job.
    I still think Adobe should get their finger out and make it possible to control all this from inside Flash Builder though, since new classes are still formatted in a stupid manner until I make a change and hit save. If a freeware editor like FlashDevelop can do it, why can't a £500 editor?

  • RDS Dataview menu option missing

    In Coldfusion Builder 2, under the menu Window->Show View, the option for RDS Dataview is missing.    The knock on effect is that I can't run any extensions for generating code from database tables becauase I can't browse the datasources.  This option was available a couple of days ago.     It is also missing from the Other... dialog.
    Screenshot
    Has anybody else encountered this problem?  Does anyone know of a solution?   Thanks in advance  (PS how come, when using the rich text editor to enter this question, whenever I press return, a new line is added above the current paragraph?)

    I have found the solution...
    Under Window->Customize perspective...
    Select the Menu Visibility tab
    Expand the Window node
    Expand the Show View node
    and there, towards the bottom, is the RDS Dataview menu option, which just needs to be checked.
    Of course, this doesn't explain why it went missing in the first place
    Hope this helps someone else

    So I renamed it the way it was.
    Done...
