Which profiles to include when building the AIR file. To limit your AIR application to a specific profile, deselect the unneeded profiles. For
more information about AIR profiles, see Application profiles.
Specifies which additional files and folders to include in your application package. Click the Plus (+) button to add files, and the
folder button to add folders. To delete a file or folder from your list, select the file or folder and click the Minus (-) button.
By default, the application descriptor file and the main SWF file are automatically added to the package list. The package list shows these files
even if you have not yet published the Adobe AIR FLA file. The package list displays the files and folders in a flat structure. Files in a folder are not
listed, and full path names to files are shown but are truncated if necessary.
If you have added any AIR native extension files to the ActionScript library path, those files will appear in this list as well.
Icon files are not included in the list. When Flash packages the files, it copies the icon files to a temporary folder that is relative to the location of
the SWF file. Flash deletes the folder after packaging is complete.
Signature settings
The Signature tab of the AIR Application & Installer Settings dialog box allows you to specify a code signing certificate for your application.
For more information about digital signatures, see
Icons settings
The Icons tab of the AIR Application And Installer Settings dialog box lets you specify an icon for the application. The icon is shown after you
install the application and run it in the Adobe AIR runtime. You can specify four different sizes for the icon (128, 48, 32, and 16 pixels) to allow for
the different views in which the icon appears. For example, the icon can appear in the file browser in thumbnail, detail, and tile views. It can also
appear as a desktop icon and in the title of the AIR application window, as well as in other places.
The icon image defaults to a sample AIR application icon if no other icon files are specified (Flash CS5 only).
To specify an icon, click an icon size at the top of the Icons tab and then navigate to the file you want to use for that size. The files must be in
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format.
If you do specify an image, it must be the exact size (either 128x128, 48x48, 32x32, or 16x16). If you do not supply an image for a particular icon
size, Adobe AIR scales one of the supplied images to create the missing icon image.
Advanced settings
The Advanced tab allows you to specify additional settings for the application descriptor file.
You can specify any associated file types that your AIR application should handle. For example, if you wanted your application to be the principal
application for handling HTML files, you would specify that in the Associated File Types text box.
You can also specify settings for the following aspects of the application:
The size and placement of the initial window
The folder in which the application is installed
The Program menu folder in which to place the application.
The dialog box has the following options:
Lets you specify associated file types that the AIR application will handle. Click the Plus (+) button to add a new file type to
the text box. Clicking the Plus button displays the File Type Settings dialog box. Clicking the Minus (-) button removes an item that is selected in
the text box. Clicking the Pencil button displays the File Type Settings dialog box and allows you to edit an item that you’ve selected in the text
box. By default, the Minus (-) and Pencil buttons are dimmed. Selecting an item in the text box enables the Minus (-) and Pencil buttons, allowing
you to remove or edit the item. The default value in the text box is None.
Lets you specify size and placement settings for the initial application window.
