Fireworks MX and Flash MX intimate collaboration (1)

Before using the Web page of the Three Musketeers, the most comfortable feeling is the closeness of Dreamweaver and fireworks: In fireworks, you can easily cut the image into a Web page to Dreamweaver or output as a library object in Dreamweaver In Dreamweaver, as long as the easy one key, you can insert fireworks completed graphics Web page, if not satisfied, an Edit button immediately activate fireworks return to modify, handle a button and then back to Dreamweaver; If you don't want to make a fuss, Just want to optimize the picture, select the Picture click right button, you can open fireworks output preview This part of the optimization work ...
Such considerate design, anti-people are not satisfied, when fireworks and flash can be so warm!
Today's web Page Three Musketeers synchronized into the MX era, Fireworks MX enhanced the support of Flash MX, the operation is still so simple and crisp.
To handle the graphic in fireworks MX, click the button in the upper right corner of the picture editing window:
You can see a menu like this:

Here we can see that Fireworks MX provides an interface for more software to make up for the lack of other software in graphics fabrication or processing. Let's take a closer look at the perfect pair of fireworks MX and Flash MX!

　　 one, from fireworks MX fast output graphics to Flash MX

Handle graphics in Fireworks MX, click on the button in the upper right corner of the picture editing window

Select Micromedia flash/export SWF, the Setup Panel appears (below).

Because fireworks MX is a vector-editing and pixel-map processing eclectic software. If you choose to maintain the path in the object, importing into Flash MX will be an editable vector graphic, and if you choose to maintain the appearance, importing into Flash MX will be a pixel graph, and you can keep the stroke style of the fill in fireworks MX. Text object selection to maintain editable, import into Flash MX will be able to continue editing, select Convert to Path, text will be treated as vector graphics.
Let's take a look at an example:

Clatter in Flash MX better with pixel graphics animation! However, I do not advocate this, because whether it is to do animation, or to do the Web page, it is very important to save the source files, to facilitate their future changes.
If you've already designed it in fireworks MX and saved it as a source file in PNG format, you can also ...
