Hey, does FlashMX support alpha transparancy in imported images?
I was thinking that I dont really need FLashMX, but there seems to be no way to do proper partial transparncy in importd images n F5.

you can use png in flash 5. mx has many other nice features though.

perhaps i dont understand your meaning here, but just to be sure... you do know to turn anything you import into a symbol (graphic or movie clip), right?

cool, thanks Matt, i didnt know F5 supported pngs, not many things do :P altough it's an awesome format.

Correct me if I am wrong, but v4 supports pngs as well.

imported pict files can have an alpha channel as well

Since Flash 3, any symbol, bitmap or otherwise can have alpha transparency. pngs have been compatible since Flash 3 as well, but they will make your movie SLOW. Avoid pngs in Flash at all costs, especially if you are animating images.
