Very cool WM (if I may call you WM).

According to the Help file Clipview does not work with Flash. Quote:
Limitations:
Some Xara Xtreme features do not exist in the Macromedia Flash format:
Bitmap fills. Flash does not support repeat inverted tiling. Other fill features export correctly.
Conical fills, Diamond fills, Three-color fills, Four-color fills. These are simulated as they do not have an exact equivalent in Flash.
Brush stroking of lines.
Feathering.
Arrow heads and dash patterns on lines.
ClipView
You can export rollover buttons but only with one object as the button design. (That is, you cannot create rollover buttons with text on them.)
If you have overlapping bitmaps with transparency, you may find the colors brighten or 'solarize'.
Sorry the Help is wrong. Clipview does work and is a very important tool for Flash animation. Anywhere you require objects to come in from the side or top, or to shoot off, or to enlarge outside your main frame - that's when you'd use Clipview.
tellurian, as the top of that help page says that is for exporting static SWF files, so that page isn't relevant to animated Flash anyway. But as Charles said Clipviews are fine, so I'll see about updating that page and making it more obvious that it's talking about static SWF export.
