Editing Director cast members in Fireworks

Using launch-and-edit integration, you can make changes to Director cast members by starting Fireworks to edit them from inside Director. You can also start Fireworks from inside Director to optimize cast members.

To start Fireworks to edit a Director cast member:

1. In Director, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the graphic in the Cast window.
2. Select Launch External Editor from the pop-up menu.

   NOTE

   If Fireworks does not start as your external image editor, in Director choose File > Preferences > Editors and set Fireworks as the external editor for bitmap graphic file types.

   The file opens in Fireworks, and the Document window indicates that you are editing a file from Director.

   

3. Make changes to the image, and click Done when finished.

   Fireworks exports the new graphic to Director.
