Working With Macromedia Flash; Placing Fireworks Graphics In Flash; Importing Fireworks Png Files Into Flash - MACROMEDIA FIREWORKS 8-USING FIREWORKS Use Manual

Undo Check Out
undoes Check Out of the local file and checks it in, overwriting the local
file with the remote copy. Undo Check Out is enabled in Fireworks only if the Enable File
Check In and Check Out option is enabled in Dreamweaver for the site in which the
document resides.
File Management commands are enabled in Fireworks only if your document resides in a
Dreamweaver site folder with a remote server defined. Fireworks File Management
commands can be used only for files that reside in sites that use the Local/Network and
FTP transport methods. Files in sites that use sFTP or third-party transport methods
such as SourceSafe, WebDAV, and RDS cannot be transported to and from the remote
server from within Fireworks.

Working with Macromedia Flash

Fireworks integrates well with Macromedia Flash. You can easily import, copy and paste, or
export Fireworks vectors, bitmaps, animations, and multistate button graphics for use in
Flash. Launch-and-edit functionality also makes it easy to edit Fireworks graphics from within
Flash.
Fireworks button behaviors and other types of interactivity are not imported into Flash.
The Flash HTML style does not support pop-up menu code.

Placing Fireworks graphics in Flash

You can place Fireworks graphics into Flash in a number of ways. Importing or copying and
pasting a Fireworks PNG file offers you the most control over how graphics and animations
are imported into Flash.
Although you have more control when importing or copying and pasting Fireworks PNG
files, you can also import JPEG, GIF, PNG, and SWF files that have been exported from
Fireworks.

Importing Fireworks PNG files into Flash

You can import Fireworks PNG source files directly into Flash, without having to export to
any other graphics format. All Fireworks vectors, bitmaps, animations, and multistate button
graphics can be imported into Flash.
Fireworks button behaviors and other types of interactivity are not imported into Flash
because Fireworks behaviors are enabled by JavaScript that is external to the file
format. Flash uses internal ActionScript code.
