Availability of Adobe AIR runtime in the long term?

-

hi all,

 

i'm maintaining extensive portfolio of flex (sdk 3.5) based products, run on browser based flash player plugins, , following announcement of google chrome hiding flash player behind click-to-start mechanism, reviewing target runtime best our products.

 

i understand adobe still officially supports , develops air, there clarity on long term (>5 years now) roadmap of product ?

would converting flex code run in air safe bet ensure future compatibility on platforms in runs on?

 

i've been looking @ alternative runtimes. there initiatives try compile mxml html5 compatible css/js - flexjs, don't support stuff amf or e4x make useless in our situation. javafx option mean rebuilding our entire codebase scratch.

 

we have 10 years of development in flex source code in our repositories , seems such waste have rebuild all. options, , guarantees available, ensure availability of our products' runtimes in future?

 

i presume there must many devs facing problem, , wondering if there formal path adobe follow (like f.i. adobe supported product compiles mxml html5 properly, or guarantee air available @ least period of time). suggestions or helpful links welcome.

 

kind regards,

ferrie

hi ferrie,

 

yes in same boat. developing web , mobile games flash , air , latest developments investigating if time start on in technology. such waste of resources change horse , assume cheaper fund adobe or else rethink flash , air , invest future. not understand why adobe not try monetize better, assume money solve of our problems.

 

cheers

Soustraire une selection

bonjour,   une image sera plus parlante pour expliquer mon problème : je souhaite appliquer une couleur/texture pour mes routes, j'ai donc utiliser l'outil plume pour délimiter le contour qui m'intéresse. or celui-ci comprend les terres pleins, auxquels je souhaite appliquer une autre couleur/texture, même problème pour le rond point par exemple. comment puis-je soustraire une sélection (pas sur du terme) pour retrouver un terre plein blanc svp ?   sur photoshop cela correspondrait soustraire une selection     en espérant avoir été clair !   merci bcp !
