I recently converted groups of assets from a Flash Builder 4 Actionscript project over to individual Flash Builder 4 Flash Professional projects. (Compile time often exceeds 5 minutes in Flash CS5, so I really need to find a way to divide the project into smaller pieces.)
While publishing a Flash Professional Project from Flash Builder 4 I’m having two problems:
-
Flash Builder ignores the destination path specified in the publish settings. All SWF’s are created directly at the root of the output path. If there are assets with identical names it appends a number. I think I need the destination paths to remain for asset organization (important when my dozen or so projects get referenced by the main application project).
-
Flash Builder ignores the “Copy non-embedded files to the output folder” selection. XML files in my source path are not copied to the output folder automatically.
Do I need to convert these to ActionScript projects to avoid these two issues? (and be force to manually publish from Flash)
