The Flash Objects API

The Flash Objects API lets extension developers build objects that create simple Flash content through Flash Generator. This API provides a way to set parameters in a Flash Generator template and output a SWF or image file. The API lets you create new Flash objects as well as read and manipulate existing Flash objects. The Flash button and Flash text features are built using this API.

The SWT file is a Flash Generator Template file, which contains all the information you need to construct a Flash Object file. These API functions let you create a new SWF file (or image file) from a SWT file by replacing the parameters of the SWT file with real values. For more information on Flash, see the Flash documentation. The following functions are methods of the SWFFile object.
