Important Notice about the end-of-life for Adobe Flash Player (Dr. Sum and MotionBoard)

Last Updated: 31/May/2018

Adobe Systems Incorporated announced on July 25, 2017 that it is planning the end-of-life of Flash technology and will stop updating and distributing Flash Player at the end of 2020 (see https://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2017/07/adobe-flash-update.html for the official announcement by Adobe). 

We are planning to update WingArc1st products that render contents using Flash Player as follows.

MotionBoard, MotionBoard for Dr. Sum EA or MotionBoard for Dr. Sum:
We will stop using Adobe Flash Player in the next release of MotionBoard (MotionBoard Version 6.0) and introduce HTML5 instead. We highly recommend that customers who use existing versions of MotionBoard upgrade to MotionBoard 6.0 when it becomes available or use the MotionBoard Adobe AIR client. MotionBoard 6.0 will be released in Dec, 2018.

Dr. Sum EA:
No update planned. Consider upgrade to the latest version.  

Dr. Sum EA MotionBoard:
Consider upgrade to MotionBoard for Dr. Sum Ver. 6.0.

Dr. Sum TextOLAP and Dr. Sum EA TextOLAP:
We will notify customers of release plan once it's finalized.

Dr. Sum Datalizer MotionChart/Dr. Sum EA Datalizer MotionChart:
We will also stop using Adobe Flash Player and introduce HTML5 in the next release of Dr. Sum Datalizer MotionChart (Ver 5.1). The release date for Datalizer MotionChart Ver. 5.1 will be announced shortly. 

SVF Web Designer:
We've released SVF Web Designer Client which includes Adobe AIR as a part of SVF V9.2 Service Pack 7. Contact us if you want to apply SVF V9.2 SP7.
