Question

Is Toolkit for CreateJS built in to Flash CC?

I get an error if I try to install Toolkit for CreateJS (see attached screengrab).

As FlashCC is version 13 I wonder if this is now built in somewhere. If so, where?

I'm trying to replicate the export FLA file from InDesign as shown in Terry White's tutorial here: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/creative-suite-podcast-designers/go-from-indesign-cs-55-to-html-5/

Or is there another way of doing this now?

thanks

The first problem is - you're in the Flash Player forum, and Extension Manager CAN'T install anything for Flash Player.
The second problem is - this ISN'T even a Flash Professional question - it's an Extension Manager question, that could possibly be answered in the Flash forum, but not likely. http://forums.adobe.com/community/creativesuites/extensionmanager
My rant not withstanding, the problem you're seeing is either caused by the extension you're installing NOT being the proper format for Extension Manager CC to encode, or it likely was designed for Flash CS6 and NOT CC.

The first problem (trying to install an MXP extension in CC) can be corrected from within the Extension Manager, see: http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/dreamweaver/convert-mxp-zxp/index.htm for how to change an MXP to a ZXP if that's the case. If you successfully convert the extension and it STILL won't install, it's because it was designed or Flash CS6 and ONLY CS6.

Thanks for the rant :-)

I wasn't aware I was in any particular forum - I just click an Adobe page to ask a question - and it's not clear where the questions is being posted.

But that aside, I suspect it is a CS6 only script. trouble is, Flash CS6 isn't available in Creative Cloud! So you would assume that Flash CC has this built in somewhere. Or maybe I have to try Edge. WHo knows. It would help if Adobe posted infomation to make it clearer - i.e. they create a link from Wallaby (the original labs extension) to the actual rlease product. They could easily put a note there to say this won't work with Flash CC or that this is now incorporated in Flash CC (if it is).

Ah well. I'll keep trying.

Flash is on its way out, THAT's why the first CC build is the "end of the road" for it - Fireworks too after the initial CC build.

Because of HTML 5 and smartphones taking a larger share of web use, Flash is outdated and Adobe can't see continuing support for it anymore.

"It's the responsibility of the extension developer to put compatibility notes and warnings up." I've tried for years to argue that and the same answer always comes back.
