Why does WireFusion only support Flash version 2 animations?
The Flash player in WireFusion is about 47 kb in size, and it is a completely standalone player. It does not require the Flash browser plug-in in order to playback Flash animations in WireFusion. The Flash player in WireFusion has to be downloaded everytime a presentation (that inlcudes a Flash animation) is loaded. Therefore, the size of the player is of highest importance. The smaller it is, the faster the presentation starts. If the player should support features found in Flash 3, or higher, the size of the player would become substantially larger. The idea with the Flash support in WireFusion is not to be able to playback the latest fancy Flash animations, but to give the developer a possibility to incude some kind of vector graphics and animations. Note that all later Flash versions can save to Flash version 2 format, even though not all features might be included.
