I’m working on a project for a doctor who uses an advanced motion x-ray system. His system outputs these x-rays to a variety of formats including flash. However they only produce the final .swf.

He would like me to add an arrow pointing to where the injury occurs. Is there a way to edit the .swf or import it into a new .fla? So far, I’ve managed to get the .swf into the new .fla only by dynamically loading it through a movie clip, which gives me a painful process of putting in the arrow since I can’t see the image until the movie is rendered.

If you have a solution, I’d be glad to hear from you!  
Thank you,
