Discontinuing browser support? Why on earth would you do that?

[kylehegge]

Our company leverages Extract heavily, so I am quite disappointed to see that you're planning on discontinuing browser support... The ability to share Extract links between designer & developer has proven extremely valuable and will be missed dearly.

Is there anything you can tell me to help explain this decision? The blog post was profoundly vague...

It is my guess that this Adobe's move has to do more with money than lower usage. Adobe brackets is free so in order to get more CC subscriptions they are trying to get people to use other workflows but using CC Apps like Dreamweaver. I cannot think about other explanation to this discontinuation on such a USEFUL tool!

I received an email this morning that they will be reinstating extract sometime next week - which is great news!

Rumors? Tell us more ... we are curious!

Sorry to post and run away this morning - as Pete confirmed, Adobe escalations notified me this morning that Extract is coming back and that we should expect the tab back by the end of next week.

I'm happy to report that Extract is now officially online.

Thank you again for all of your feedback.

Regards.

Thanks Pete. I did notice that is now back, but one of my devs noticed that it is not available when a link is shared. Only available for Cloud Users. WIll you be adding it back to non-Cloud Users?

[Pete.Green]

It looks like there is an advanced option in the share settings for the PSD file to Allow the use of Extract or not.

Can you confirm it's checked for that asset?

Looks like the Extract checkbox appears when sharing an individual file. So now when I share a folder, it by default turns off Extract. It would be great if sharing a folder, Extract is enabled.

[Pete.Green]

Is that how it used to function Darren? I never tried sharing a folder and testing Extract previously.

Hi Pete, thank you so much for bringing back Extract! I can't help but wonder, though, how many people left entirely and still don't know Extract is back online. Perhaps you guys can send out a mass email or newsletter with the good news?

God bless people who came Extract back!

Dear Adobe and Extract team

• Thank you! I know all appreciate this decision!
• Please don't cut off Extract again. I belive community can help if you ask and everyone can share Extract among friends, coworkers, facebook, etc. Thereby we can increase Extract usage activity.
