Hello,
The 4th beta after the official release of the build 253 is available.
Read this before downloading: if you use other exporters and want to install all the beta versions at once, you should install the latest beta version of the full update patch instead, available in the Please login to see this link. forum. If you still want to install the beta version of this exporter only, here is it:

Thanks for testing!

Bug fixes and new features in Beta 4
- General issue in all the runtimes, if you compile an application with several extensions and one of these extensions is not compatible with the current build type, the other extensions could disappear, or crash the application.
- Applications now also support 256x256 icons, for Windows Vista/7 (the 128x128 size is used only for Java Mac at the moment).
- The "Resize display to fit window size" option was always disabled in SWF mode.
Bug fixes and new features in Beta 3
- Application: applications now support 128x128 icons.
- Build : important change, you can now also build applications that contain incompatible actions/conditions/expressions. The incompatible actions won't have any effect, the incompatible conditions are removed, and the incompatible expressions return either 0 or "". The error messages (incompatible objects and incompatible events) are now simple warning messages, you can bypass them. A new "Display build warning messages" option in the properties of the application allows you to hide these message boxes.
- Global objects: a new "Editor synchronization" property in the object properties. This option allows you to specify how global objects are synchronized across all frames in the editor. If this option is set to "No", the global object is not synchronized with others. If this option is set to "Identical Objects", the objects identical to the current are synchronized with it (this is the old behavior, which doesn't work sometimes for some objects, especially when they have behaviors). If this option is set to "Same name and type", the global objects with the same name and type as the current object will be synchronized with it. When you create a new object, this option is set to "Same name and type" by default. In old applications, this option is set to "Identical objects" for the existing global objects.
- String object: crash at runtime if the size of the paragraphs was greater than 64 Kb.
- Window Control object: the Minimize action now pauses the application if the "Run when minimized" option is not selected.
- Flash : a new "Flash Player Version" property allows you to set the minimum required version of Flash Player for each application. No need to modify the Flex config file anymore.
- Flash : Added backdrop object were not displayed properly in a wrapping scrolling layer.
- Flash : bug in previous beta, added backdrop objects were 100% transparent.
- Flash : bug in previous beta. crash with hidden counters.
Bug fixes and new features in Beta 1 and Beta 2
- Date & Time object : the parameter of the Set count down action was not displayed in the event editor.
- Build : important change, you can now build applications that contain incompatible objects. The actions of those objects won't have any effect, the events that contain their conditions are removed, and the expressions return either 0 or "".
- All runtimes : Set animation speed had no effect for objects with a static movement.
- All runtimes : all the actions and expressions that concern the effects (for objects, layers and frames) are now compatible with all the runtimes, so that you don't get build errors. That doesn't mean they have an effect on all the runtimes, they are simply ignored in the runtimes that don't support them.
- Non-PC runtimes including Flash : sometimes the object could keep its previous animation direction.
- Flash : Add, Subtract, Invert, Semi transparency effects are now supported as well as alpha blending and RGB coefficients.
- Flash : Frame and Layer effects are now supported (shaders are not supported though). Note: in the SWF runtime, each layer actually contains 3 layers, one for the backdrop objects, one for the objects displayed as backdrops and one for the active objects. Unlike the PC version the effects are applied to each of these sub-layers.
- Flash : crash with Get pixel shader version and Get graphicc mode. They now return 0.
- Flash / List, Combo Box object : save and load actions now work.
- Flash / Array object : save action now works.
- Flash / INI object : now loads INI files stored as binary files in the application.
- Flash : Resize display to fit window size is now supported
- Flash / String object : now responds to Set transparency action
- Flash / List and Combo Box object : "Set current line" doesn't induce a "selection changed" event anymore, like the PC runtime.
- Flash : pausing an application with the same key as the one chosen for resume had no effect.
- Flash / Combo Box object : "Is list dropped" condition always returned false.
- Flash / Sub application object : new bug since build 253, fake key presses could be reported at start of frame.
- Flash / INI object : spaces before or after a key name made this key unrecognized.
- Flash : Delete created backdrop at coordinate did not delete a backdrop laying at the exact coordinates.
- Flash / Date & Time object : the initial value of a count down was ignored.
If you are happy with the official build 253, don't need the new features and fixes and prefer to keep the official build because you are releasing application and there could be a risk with the betas, don't update. Wait for the build 254.
