Enhancements, bug fixes, and known issues in Scene7 Viewers 4.9.2
Viewer upgrades are backwards compatible and therefore, no changes are necessary to your existing web code. However, it is recommended that you test the new viewers on Adobe’s staging environment. Contact Technical Support for instructions on how to access the staging server so you can test your viewers. When the activation is complete, you can check your website to test the upgrades.
The following bugs are now fixed:

Double encode the # character in asset names.
Server Support fails to load SWF animations with embedded videos.
Server Support fails to load viewer skins if compiled for Flash Player 6. Workaround is to compile for Flash Player 7.
Macintosh OS and Flash Player version 10,0,32,18: Workaround depends on a JavaScript bridge instead of a LocalConnection to communicate between Flex and Flash. So, the Flex application must be imbedded in the HTML wrapper.
Currently the Flash Viewers support SWFs complied for Flash 7 only.
Because of an issue with Java™ v.1.5.0_06 the server component is not supported with that version of Java™. https://bugs.java.com/?bug_id=6274990.
For a skin custom URL parameter, the parameter in the Skin URL must be URL encoded.
If the embedding HTML page has significant content after the viewer, it is possible that the viewer may call a JavaScript function before the page is fully loaded. This action may abort page loading. A suggested workaround is to use an onLoad event handler to delay initializing the viewer until after the page load is complete.
When using the skipFrames=frameList
parameter to omit images, the viewer returns an error if an omitted frame is called directly either by the JavaScript change image function InitialFrame
, or if a RenderSet that has two or more swatches associated with an image - when the swatch combination referencing the omitted frame is selected.
Crop is not supported with zoom targets or swatches in either the image=
or modifier=
arguments.
The rgn
argument is not supported for the flash viewers for image modifier.
A new IE security patch requires the user to activate Flash and other ActiveX® applications in IE. Please see the Microsoft® site for information about workarounds.
Security issues prevent the viewer from reading from a different server on the same domain unless both URLs are fully qualified domain names or the “cross domain policy” is set to allow access from that server.
For more information on how to set up a “cross domain policy” see the following article: https://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14213.html.
Exception error generated when viewer is embedded in HTTPS page. Issue is due to communication with server logging. For more information https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/end-of-life.html.
