Adobe introduced a major update to Creative Cloud 2014 apps yesterday with many new features and improvements. What’s more, the updated apps contain a new version of CEP, version 5.2. CEP 5.2 contains some of the most frequently requested features and capabilities, such as Drag and Drop support and native fly-out menu support.
Here are some of the features of CEP 5.2
- Support Drag and Drop of both standard types and custom types

To get CEP 5.2, download the latest update to your target application and include the latest version of the CSInterface API, (CSInterface-5.2.js), in your extension project.
I look forward to seeing your extensions make use of the latest and greatest features of CEP 5.2.
