Adobe Flash Player 10.0.45.2 Active X Installer Latest (2010)


Features:


Filters and effects

3D effects New

Create more intuitive, engaging interfaces using built-in support for 3D effects. Get started quickly without being a 3D master by designing in 2D and easily transforming and animating in 3D. Fast, extremely lightweight, and simple-to-use APIs, along with 3D tools in Adobe Flash® CS4 Professional software, make motion that was previously accessible only to expert users via ActionScript® language or custom third-party libraries available to everyone.

Dynamic filters, effects, blend modes, and fills

Add real-time dynamic effects with built-in filters for blur, drop shadow, glow, bevel, gradient glow, gradient bevel, displacement map, convolution, and color matrix. Expand your creative options with blend modes, radial gradient, and strokes combined with custom filters and effects created using Adobe Pixel Bender technology.

Custom filters and effects New

Create high-performance, real-time effects for cinematic experiences that quickly engage users. With Pixel Bender, the same technology behind many filters and effects in Adobe After Effects® software, these interactive effects can be used both in production with After Effects CS4 and live with Flash Player 10. Apply unique filters, effects, and blend modes to all display objects, including vectors, bitmaps, and video, while retaining full interactivity. Shorten production times with complex filters and effects that have minimal impact on application size (average size under 1KB). Pixel Bender can also be used to process other types of data, such as sound or mathematical functions, asynchronously in a separate thread.

For more details on Pixel Bender, go to the Pixel Bender Toolkit page. To view or share custom filters and effects, go to the Pixel Bender Exchange.
Text
Advanced text support New

Take advantage of a new, flexible text engine that brings print-quality publishing to the web, building on more than 25 years of Adobe expertise in typography. Gain more control over text layout using the Text Layout Framework, an extensible library built on the new text engine in Adobe Flash Player 10, which delivers advanced, easy-to-integrate typographic and text layout features for rich, sophisticated and innovative typography on the web. Create multilingual web applications using device fonts that can now be anti-aliased, rotated, and styled, or build your own unique text components.
Additional features

Deploy dynamic web applications on a powerful runtime

Extend the runtime capabilities of Flash Player 10 to create user experiences never before possible in the browser. Access to low-level APIs allows developers to create their own text components and special effects. Leverage the power of the new multi-threaded Pixel Bender just-in-time (JIT) compiler for other advanced calculations, such as sound generation, or create new application capabilities through ActionScript that run on the high-performance ActionScript Virtual Machine 2 (AVM2).

Extensibility

ActionScript 3.0

Achieve superb performance and ease of development to facilitate highly complex applications, large data sets, and object-oriented, reusable codebases with ActionScript 3.0, based on the ECMAScript standard (ECMA-262). In addition to key language features, such as ECMAScript for XML (E4X), namespaces and packages, and regular expressions, ActionScript 3.0 includes runtime exceptions for common error conditions and standard W3C DOM Level 3 Events to help developers maintain better object-oriented code.

For more information, visit the ActionScript Technology Center.
Dynamic sound generation New

Use enhanced sound APIs to dynamically generate audio and create new types of audio applications such as music mixers and sequencers, real-time audio for games, or even audio visualizers. Work with loaded MP3 audio at a lower level by extracting audio data and supplying it to the sound buffer. Process, filter, and mix audio in real time through the high-performance Pixel Bender JIT compiler to extend creative freedom beyond the visual experience.
Drawing API Enhanced

Perform runtime drawing more easily with restyleable properties, 3D APIs, and a new way of drawing sophisticated shapes without having to code them line by line. Developers can tweak parts of curves, change styling, replace parts, and use custom filters and effects, delivering improved throughput, creative control, and greater productivity. Enhancements to the Drawing API add the z dimension, real perspective, textured meshes in 3D space, a retained graphics model, read/write rendering, and triangle drawing with UV coordinates, while adding memory and improving performance.
Text engine New

Create innovative text controls with the new, highly flexible text layout engine, co-existing with TextField, which provides low-level access to text layout and interactivity APIs to create component-level text objects. Device fonts can now be anti-aliased, rotated, and styled, and have filters applied as if they were embedded, and the engine supports typographic elements such as ligatures.
Pixel Bender New

Expand your creative control by creating your own portable filters, blend modes, and fills using Adobe Pixel Bender, the same technology used to power filters and effects in After Effects. Pixel Bender is a high-performance image processing language that takes the pain out of writing custom, multi-threaded effects and filters that can be added to web applications without any Flash Player update.
Binary file support

Add more power to your web application with direct byte access to binary data. Control and access data in new ways, such as adding support for new file and data types, or manipulating sound data in real time to create new sound effects.
Bitmap manipulation
