Working with Flash
Edit a SWF file from Dreamweaver in Flash
If you have both Flash and Dreamweaver installed, you can select a SWF file in a Dreamweaver document and use
Flash to edit it. Flash does not edit the SWF file directly; it edits the source document (FLA file) and re-exports the
SWF file.
1 In Dreamweaver, open the Property inspector (Window > Properties).
2 In the Dreamweaver document, do one of the following:
• Click the SWF file placeholder to select it; then in the Property inspector click Edit.
• Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the placeholder for the SWF file, and select Edit With Flash
from the context menu.
Dreamweaver switches the focus to Flash, and Flash attempts to locate the Flash authoring file (FLA) for the selected
SWF file. If Flash cannot locate the Flash authoring file, you are prompted to locate it.
Note: If the FLA file or SWF file is locked, check out the file in Dreamweaver.
3 In Flash, edit the FLA file. The Flash Document window indicates that you are modifying the file from within
Dreamweaver.
4 When you finish making edits, click Done.
Flash updates the FLA file, re-exports it as a SWF file, closes, and then returns the focus to the Dreamweaver
document.
