FLASH HELP Please? How to edit text of a .swf file? - 11/8/2005 6:09:00   
Hello all,

I am new here, my net nickname is D911.

I have a existing Flash .swf file and want to edit the text of the ready made Flash Intro .swf file, please help?

I have Sothink SWF Decompiler MX 2004 and also have Macromedia Director Shockwave Studio 8.0 but do not know how to edit the text of the Flash .swf file I already have.

Please help?

If you don't know, please reply with a post with where I can get steps how to edit Flash .swf files please?

Thank you all so much!

Oh this forum really looks great too!

Please post a reply?

D911

Welcome to Outfront. Two things here.

1. you can't edit a swf file. you need the original fla file or you can decompile the swf into a fla.

2. You need Flash or similar to edit the fla. You can go for the free demo of flash or buy something like Swish. Director may look like it allows you to edit but all it does is load Flash and if you don't have that then it won't work.

There are also various wizards and packages around on the web that'll let you set your own banner up from scratch.

If you go the macromedia route then there are very good built in tutorials to take you through everything. You can also google for flash tutorials and you'll find bucket loads.

what I should use to edit with and priciples of it.
At least give me an idea of what type of editor I
need to use..I have the player.
