After upgrade to 19.2 HTML extension not working

Report · Dec 03, 2015

Hello

Upgraded to latested AI (19.2.0) and noticed that html extensions do not seem to be working

Even a very simple "hello world" pane is not displaying correctly

See below for the files. When selecting Window/Extensions/Hello World the first time, nothing happens. The second time the pane pops up but with empty content

All tips welcome!

What is the CEP revision you used?

Try to upgrade to the latest revision. -6 or 6.1)

Then update the manifest version value.

This should be better.

<ExtensionManifest ExtensionBundleId="com.example.helloworld" ExtensionBundleName="Hello world" ExtensionBundleVersion="1.0" Version="6.0">

Don't you need to set AutoVisible to true to automatically show and hide using the menu?

Set these property

On Mac, open the file ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.CSXS.4.plist and add a row with key PlayerDebugMode, of type String, and value 1.
On Windows, open the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Adobe/CSXS.4 and add a key named PlayerDebugMode, of type String, and value 1.

It will show the extension in Illustrator 19.2 version
