Hello,

I have a problem: I use Anime Studio Pro 6 now I want to export my animation to a .swf file. I select it and then it loads and loads, it seems to work but then when it's ready it doesn't create any .swf file... so it doesn't shows any error but it does not create any file.

What can I do to get this feature working?

Thank you :)

only certain layer types and effects can be used in flash format

here's what you can't do.
you cannot use 3d
you cannot add gradients
and shading is near impossible,
you can still shade, but only if you use manual vector shading (try different shades of color)

here's what you can do
change the size to anything you want, loss-lessly
use vectors
masking works
and i haven't tried this, but i think images work, too

if you find no help in this, try the help section in anime studio, i think you can search "flash" and find your answer like that as well.
