Hmm, there isn't an "Export" button in the Image Properties dialog. We can

certainly export frames of an animation, but this would require moving

things on the screen.


One easy way of regaining embedded assets is by copy/paste into Fireworks.


If you export the movie as a SWF then it should be possible to parse the

SWF and write out pixel-based assets. Swift-Inspector already does this,

but it may not match your platform:

ah, it looks like Eduardo Aguiar's "Swiff Extractor" can do this too:

I haven't evaluated any of these personally myself, but do any of these

tools or procedures help you get what you want...?
