[Hopperxx] Mac says my projector needs Shockwave...

I have created a projector with Dir 11.5 for my Mac (High Sierra) and it
plays OK on my Mac. By the way, I chose "Standard" as the type of
projector, not "Shockwave".
When I copy the projector over to another machine and then copy it back
to my Mac and try to run that version of the projector, the headache
starts, don't it.
First, I had to solve the security issue, described here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFpVqkyXFy4 . Macs have gotten
outrageously paternalistic; you actually need to run a command line
program and issue a command in it to allow execution of programs by
"unknown developers". Seems like a grab to control the app space.
But even after I'd done that, when I tried to run my app, I was told
that it required Shockwave. However, I had chosen "Standard" in the
Publish options, not "Shockwave".
And then even after I installed Shockwave, and then tried to run my app
again, I still got the message about Shockwave not having been installed.
Yeesh.
Anybody run into this problem?
Thanks,
ja
