Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
Hi Nuno,
I'm afraid Xara can only export as Flash 8 swf files which are AS2, not AS3, so I think your stuck.
Would the target application accept html5 files?
Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
Unfortunately it doesn't accept HTML5, conversion would be easy... however your information was very helpful, if I could find a working AS2 to AS3 converter... Seems improbable though:

Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
I will now investigate SWFMill / SamHaXe tools, seem interesting and helpful...
Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
It's not possible to do from a xara file. They obviously have headers to say they are Flash 8 (AS2) generated swf's. The link you supplied is only allowing AS3 swfs to load & play older AS2 swf files. (Flash allows swf's to load swf' to load swf's etc)
Perhaps the application vendors could help if you explained the situation, after all there can't be much, if any AS in your swf file.
Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
Absolutely... It seems that if they don't alter the import limitation I will need to convert swf to mp4. Many thanks, Egg!
Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
Actionscript 2 based SWFs use a completely different virtual machine to the Actionscript 3 one. That's why these systems aren't happy to use them.
Don't waste any time trying to convert your AS2 file to AS3.
Can we see the animation?
Re: Xara Pro Actionscript
I didn't created a fancy animation already afraid it wouldn't work (jusr the word url increasing in size)... Unfortunately I was right...
Last year I created a small video, after 0:38 it's mostly done with Xara (everything except transitions):

but it was mostly to play with, I'm not promoting that website anywhere.
