Copying and pasting Fireworks graphics into Flash
A quick way to place Fireworks graphics into Flash is to copy and paste them.
|
NOTE |
To copy graphics into versions of Flash earlier than Flash 8, you must choose Edit > Copy Path Outlines. |
When Fireworks graphics are copied and pasted into Flash, some attributes are lost, such as Live Filters and textures. In addition, Flash supports only solid fills, gradient fills, and basic strokes.
|
NOTE |
You cannot copy and paste a contour gradient effect from Fireworks into a Flash document. |
To copy and paste graphics from Fireworks into a Flash document:
- In Fireworks, select the object or objects to copy.
- Select Edit > Copy or click the Quick Export button and choose Copy from the Adobe Flash pop-up menu.
- In Flash, create a new document and choose Edit > Paste.
NOTE
You may have to ungroup the objects using Modify > Ungroup so that they will be editable as separate vector objects in Flash.
