Importing and exporting color palettes

To import and export both RGB colors and gradients between Flash files, you use Flash Color Set files (CLR files). You can import and export RGB color palettes using Color Table files (ACT files) that can be used with Macromedia Fireworks and Adobe Photoshop. You can also import color palettes, but not gradients, from GIF files. You cannot import or export gradients from ACT files.

To import a color palette:

1 In the Swatches panel, choose one of the following commands from the pop-up menu in the upper right corner:
To append the imported colors to the current palette, choose Add Colors.
To replace the current palette with the imported colors, choose Replace Colors.
2 Navigate to the desired file and select it.
3 Click OK.

To export a color palette:

1 In the Swatches panel, choose Save Colors from the pop-up menu in the upper right corner.
2 In the dialog box that appears, enter a name for the color palette.
3 For Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Macintosh), choose Flash Color Set or Color Table. Click Save.
