Changing SWF background color

Hey folks!

I've imported a swf into my Adobe Presenter project but it has a white background, because of the stage color used in Flash when creating the SWF. Is there a way to get rid of the swf background color like you can in other programs like Dreamweaver?

I don't see anything in the preferences - the closest I get is when I right click on the swf and choose Properties, I get a list of values about the swf I can change - there is a Background color AND BGcolor options (see screenshot) - but I've had no luck changing these. I need to get rid of the white background and change it to be transparent - is Presenter capable of doing this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Steve,


    Well in Presenter you can load the SWF files and manage them, however it does not have any option to edit the SWF files as of now. You can try using Captivate to create the SWF you want or else upload the file some where, I will try to have a look at that.


    Thanks,

    Ravi

    Hey Ravi, thanks for getting back to me.


    I dont really need to edit the swf, I just need to remove the default white background. For example if I were to drop this swf in Dreamweaver for a website, I can set the parameters of the swf to have a transparent background - this isn't something I can do within Flash. So you're saying that presenter doesn't have this feature, and I'm stuck with the background and I just need to think about that during creation of assets, correct?

    Thanks again for your help.

    Steve

    Hi Steve,

    I thought that the background you are referring to is in the SWF file . I am not pretty clear which background is in subject here. Could you please paste an image over here indicating which background is in subject here??

    Thanks,

    Ravi
