Flash CS4 Bug: Clicking the “New library panel” button in the library throw an error message

Posted by Riccardo on April 21, 2009 under Flash

Bug Description
I was working on 2 open documents and I needed to copy a MovieClip from a library to the other. I clicked the “New library panel” button in the library but it throwed the error “Unable to open a new Library Panel. The limit of ten open Library Panels has been reached.”, and my opened Library Panel is only one. Closing and reopening the documents or create a new blank document didn’ fix the problem. So I closed and reopened Flash and it was throwing the same error. Then I closed Flash, Dreamweaver and Photoshop but after reopening Flash was the same situation.

I rebooted the computer but the error persisted. Then I tried to change the workspace and the problem disappeared. Switching back to my personalized profile throw the error.

How To Reproduce
My os is Windows XP SP3 with Flash CS4 Professional (with latest updates). I tried to recreate the same workspace but the error didn’t appear.

Workaround
Select Window -> Workspace -> Reset ‘your workspace name’ in the menù.
