Fireworks -> Flash = huge quality loss..

I've noticed that when doing anything in fireworks/photoshop and importing it to flash - the quality of the image takes a huge leap back to the stone age..

Is there anything I can do to combat the loss of morale within the ranks of my pixels? (*chuckles*)

When ever I import something into Flash I always import the *.png file. I've tried other methods (like saving the layers as bitmaps and importing them) but the quality is still sub-par.

Hmm... well the programs treat colors differently, but I've never had a problem w/ image quality loss. If you're just running the movie on the fly it always plays at 50% quality by default. Save out your .swf and set it to 100% quality and when you play it from there on out it will show at 100% quality.

If you have the image on a fraction of a pixel (like its location was 123.45) then images will look weird.

Also, I think you can share the clipboards from Flash to Fireworks and back, so that could be another solution.

also check your export settings for images (labelled as jpegs) if that is low then it will look crazy. What I normally do is leave my flash optimize around 95% and let FW do the major portion of optimizing.
