AW wouldn't have made it onto i-anything either.

It had weird memory handling as well. 100% cpu usage etc.

Yes, Xerte is actually way more powerful when it comes down to it.

Which would mean they killed Authorware for no good reason, since getting
Flash was why Adobe purchased Macromedia. But I like Xerte better, anyway. J

Until Apple drops the other shoe and says, no Flash, no how.

The question is really whether there is any point in building a Flex
project, whatever tools you use.

If you want to build mobile apps, there is a very big point, I think Flex is
the best cross-platform development SDK out there for iOS and Android
development, likewise if you only need to deliver to desktop PCs, the Flex
framework is very cool. But if you want to deliver to every browser on every
device, the Flash Player is not going to do it, and that's the problem.

IOW, not much point in starting a project in Xerte 3.

The traction is elsewhere.

>>H5 player will deal with XOT, correct?

>Correct

Again, Xerte 3 will not play nice with the translator libraries then.

>>XOT is not using Flex framework, right?

>Right.

Ditto above.

More curious questions:

Xerte 3 is backwater at this point, no?

H5 player will deal with XOT, correct?

XOT is not using Flex framework, right?
