Nice work - I won't see that computer until the weekend, they'll need help with the command line invocation. In thinking about it further (after Tom's artist types!) I'm guessing they went from 4.7 to 4.9.1 and thinking the 'install' program had the same context. I'm not sure it's unreasonable with names like AS3, AIR, Flex, Flash that seemingly are the same to them? Everyone's eyes gloss over when we're talking about an actionscript project vs a flex project, so it's no surprise to me that the distinction of SDK was lost when I got the feedback that it just didn't work. Actually to me, this is a classic sign of the "innovator's dilemma", is it worth it for apache flex to support a certain type of customer. For us, we want our creative types to be the first customer of our product and experience the system, and not just an illustrator intention.

Could be scary as it would involve using the command line, but here you go and it may help someone else. checkAllPlayerGlobals.sh https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=flex-sdk.git;a=blob_plain;f=ide/checkAllPlayerGlobals.sh;hb=develop This will download and check all Flash Player playerglobal.swc versions addAIRtoSDK.sh https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=flex-sdk.git;a=blob_plain;f=ide/addAIRtoSDK.sh;hb=develop This will download and add AIR to an Apache Flex SDK addAIRtoSDK.sh <AIR version> <path to SDK> setFlashPlayerVersion.sh https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=flex-sdk.git;a=blob_plain;f=ide/setFlashPlayerVersion.sh;hb=develop This will set the minimum version of the Flash Player for an SDK setFlashPlayerVersion.sh <path to SDK> <FP version> If you run it like so with no parameters it will ask some questions to determine the needed version setFlashPlayerVersion.sh <path to SDK> Thanks, Justin
