Miscellaneous
Details…
Default is 'unchecked'. Read more…
System Events Manager status (Flash CS5 and newer) will appear as green or red. 
Red means that another plugin may be interfering with the work of EDAP Tools. Users need to be aware of this potential interference. If you notice unexpected and undesired EDAPT behavior, in order to identify the offending piece of software, the first step in the process of trouble-shooting should be to remove all other plugins. Then reintroduce them one by one, restarting Flash/Animate, checking the System Events Manager status and testing for when the symptoms reappear.
Please note: A red indicator does not necessarily mean that there is a problem, but rather that there is potential for such a problem due to the shared memory space and certain methods used by 3rd party software developers, which may interfere with the work of EDAP Tools. If EDAP Tools work without any issues, even if the indicator is red you don't need to do anything.
Display in Output Panel:
Drop-down allowing to choose a comfortable level of EDAPT messaging in the Output panel. Default for new users is “Errors and Messages”. When one is familiar with EDAP Tools, “Errors Only” is the recommended setting.
Uninstall EDAPT
Pressing this button will start the process of uninstalling EDAP Tools. There must be no open documents as during the process the program will need to be closed by EDAPT Setup to finalize deinstallation.
Manage Commands…
Pressing the button opens a dialog which allows the users to remove or bring back previously removed EDAPT commands from the Commands menu.
Flash / Animate must be restarted after commands are removed or added for changes to take effect.
Animate CC only: If EDAPT Shortcuts for the newly shown commands are missing, restore them from EDAPT Control Panel > Miscellaneous > Restore EDAPT Shortcuts
EDAP Tools shortcut
Notes
Quick access to the last used EDAPT command settings is available via Quick Settings F12
Known Issues
Animate CC 2017 and newer on Windows: If user opens the KineFlex or Layer Color Settings dialogs from EDAPT Control Panel and clicks on a color chip to change certain colors and in this color chip dialog clicks on the color wheel at the top-right to pop the system color picker, it opens behind the dialogs. It is not visible and impossible to bring in focus, which results in a lockdown situation.
This is a problem caused by Animate and not EDAP Tools.
To avoid having to kill the program, users can either move EDAPT Control Panel to the side after opening it, before calling the system picker or use the Quick Settings F12 dialog for each of the commands which does not display this issue.
