Using Components in Flash Develop

To use Flash IDE components in Flash Develop:

  1. Create a new 'Flash File'

  2. Double click on the components you want to use. (Ctrl + F7 to bring up the 'Components' window)

  3. Select a component in the 'Library' window and select 'Export to SWC...'

  4. Decide on a file name and save it


It does not matter which component you choose, it will all be added to the created SWC. Now just make sure to add it for inclusion when you build your code, which ever way you do it.

To double check if the components are there just open the SWC file with a zip program and you should see a list of SWFs and catalog.xml file.
