+Since mainstream web browsers and close derivatives will stop supporting Flash and SWF files anyway, it is necessary to look elsewhere to find a reliable option that will work after 2020. SWF files are published in webpages as small animation, multimedia player, banners etc. Get the feedback you need with Autodesk Viewer’s annotation and drawing tools for easy online collaboration. In the backend it is controlled by ActionScript. Autodesk Viewer supports most 2D and 3D files, including DWG, STEP, DWF, RVT, and Solidworks, and works with over 80 file types on any device. It supports several multimedia authoring tools of Adobe. Since web browsers will stop supporting Flash and SWF files anyway, it is necessary to look elsewhere to find a reliable option that will work after 2020. SWF is a flash file that contains simple animation with text and images. I say the distinction is important because of course Goanna and the Unified XUL Platform shall not be crippling or removing npapi and while individual projects may add blocklist entries for specific versions of a plugin the user can always override that if they desire. In this world we have really two and a half mainstream browser engine platform classes: Blink (Google Chrome/Opera/New Edge/and a dozen more), Gecko (Firefox, Waterfox, and remaining minor rebuilds), and Webkit. All browsers will NOT be blocking the Flash player or indeed other types of plugins. Martin, my only suggestion is you make the distinction between mainstream browsers and all browsers.
