The explanation is in Danish, but the interface is in English.

There is no error handling, so you could actually put anything you like inside your MovieClip (at own risk).</p> <p>Hope you guys can use this... and now back to Avoider Game Tutorial, part 3...</p> <p>Thanks Michael for this great resource.</p> http://undervisning.monten.dk/undervisning/flash/pages/commands.html#s_20

I just tried out the 4 first extensions for CS4:

  • Selection tool works fine!
  • Animation pencil couldn’t install the first 10 times, but somehow I made it do it anyway, it seems to be working perfectly. (It was located under my rectangle/oval tool)
  • Frames to symbol works great! But his dublicate frame remover is bugged (works fine, but you need to restart flash after running the command.)
  • Queasy Tools works fine.
