Yes new to using DW.

I can not find out how to create Flash buttons in DW, so how can I import ones I made. I am just testing by making simple text Flash buttons. The Flash button I was able to bring in brought a huge box around it and when I went to resize the box it screwed everything up.

How do one get around this prob? Thanks in advance!
 
Hey natedeia,
If you are trying to import one button into DW4 form Flash, you will want to make sure your movie size is the same size as your button. This is changed in the Movie Properties. My guess is you have the default which is 550 by 400 or so. A little big for a button, causing a lot of white space. Let me know if this helps any.

you know i was thinking that was what is happening. but i told myself that it is the stupidest thing i probably heard of. i just did not believe it, but you are confirming my thoughts. because it says 'export image' (which i selected) and there is 'export movie'. what is the difference? seems to do the same thing. thanks for your input, always appreciated.
