Well I would think that some functionality would more than likely be missing within the swf provided by Corel not only because it was created by Corel (non-adobe) , but because Flash added much more functionality then what is stored in flash 4 with its most recent version of flash player (flash 9). You may want to consider buying Flash CS3 or downloading SwishMax2 it also offers a trial download and I believe it uses the most recent version of flash player. -Ken
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2008 11:35:01 -0400 Subject: RE: [AFFUG Discuss] Flash 4 .swf vs. Flash 9 .swf Mystery I'm sorry, I wasn't clear enough. My flex app compiles into a swf app that uses flex 9. In the app I have a stick figure person image that is also a swf. There are two different stick figure swf's, an original version that according to the properties requires flash 9, and a Corel Draw stick figure swf person whose properties says that it requires flash 4. Both stick figure swf images display correctly when I run my flex app and the context menu I built for those images displays fine as well. The problem is that the original stick figure (flash 9) fires the context menu events correctly but the Corel stick figure person (flash 4) does not and I can't figure out why. I'm attaching the two swf images. The Person.swf is the Corel Draw (Flash 4) swf and the PersonBlue.swf is the original (Flash 9) swf. Is there prehaps some kind of setting that we need to adjust for the Corel Draw image?

I'm building an interactive map in flex and I'm using .swf images. I built a few .swf images by downloading a flash trial, importing the image into CS3 Flash Professional and then exporting the image as a .swf object. I don't have any timelines, it's only a simple 1 frame image. Now my trial version has expired and we are using Corel to export a .swf image. The absolute only difference between the original swf and the corel swf is that the original swf requires flash player 9, the corel swf requires flash player 4. The problem is that when I change the context menu items for the image in flex, the context menu comes up correctly for the corel image but the context menu event doesn't fire. It never gets to my handle event function. The original swf worked fine. Is there a problem with my code in that I'm not handling a Flash 4 .swf correctly or is this an issue with flash 4 swf vs. flash 9 swf themselves?
