My Javascript API reference is very outdated

[tiagosaad]

Hello, everybody!

I am currently developing scripts to enhance my performance working with Adobe Animate, but i am struggling to find the right reference for newest features, such as frame blend, or the parent properties of a layer (not related to a guided/folder layer). My current reference is a document from 2013 called "ExtendingADOBE® FLASH® PROFESSIONAL", named flash_cs5_extending.

Does anyone have any clue?

Thanks in advance and a great 2023 for you guys!

Hi, Tiago!

The most updated API documentation should be this one:

https://github.com/AdobeDocs/developers-animatesdk-docs/blob/master/index.md

But many new features are still not documented anywhere, unfortunately.

Regards,

JC

You're welcome, Tiago!

is that downloadable?

[JoãoCésar]

It's a .md file view/navigation in GitHub. Although it's possible to download the .md's raw content, create a .md file and then use a .md viewer somewhere else, I think it's best to use the online version.

hate that, but thank you!

the name's the same, but it's a later version:
