Hi ,

You can try https://github.com/davebelais/Extensible/blob/master/Javascript/Extensible/SVG.jsfl which creates an SVG formatted image for your artwork.

Further , we will have vector export from Flash as one of the features for our next major update.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Adobe!

I found a irritating bug that makes Illustrator CC 2014 crash when opening a Flash-exported SVG-file. (The file still works fine to open in FireFox thou.)

This occurs when an object contains a Mask.

Right now I have to manually delete the mask-layers to make it possible to open the SVG-file in Illustrator.

How complex are your masks?

I've only just tested this feature, and tested a few simple shapes with masks, no crashing, perhaps your Illustrator needs to be updated? And does non-Flash exported SVGs cause errors?

I've found that the masks work as intended, but the mask and shape are group, and its not as intuitive as you'd think to ungroup the mask.

I appreciate Adobe's efforts to move towards SVG rather than maintaining FXG this is a big move forward. I hope the answer at the top of the page could be updated rather than linking to some WIP plugin, that led me on a wild-goose chase for a day or two.

Flash Professional CC 2014 has File/Export Image/SVG. It's a pain to use when you want to export several frames, but it does the trick. In my most recent job using this, I did not have any gradients so I can't say how well they get converted.

Thank you Adobe for putting that in!

Hi All,

Flash Pro CC 2014 (v14.0.0.110) is now available for download via the Creative Cloud App and Adobe website.

We have added SVG Export feature to Flash Pro with this new release. You will now be able to export out vector content from the selected frame as an SVG image that can be opened directly in a Browser and even imported in Adobe Illustrator.

SVG Export option will be available via the Publish Settings as well as via File Menu > Export > Export Image option.

Along with this, we have added several new features with this release. Complete list is available at these links:

Overview:         https://www.adobe.com/in/products/flash.html

Release Notes: https://helpx.adobe.com/flash/release-note/flash-professional-cc-2014.html

Thanks,

Nipun

    This functionality existed in previous versions. It has now been removed.

    The simple question is: why?

        I just tested it with a simple shape (square) it preserves the vector, if you have your graphics grouped or oterwise nested, it might be necessary to ungroup/divide them.

        Also make sure how your Illustrator Clipboard Preferences are set: Preferences>Data and Clipboard
