Saving and version control
When you save your FLA files, it is important to consider using a consistent naming scheme
for your documents. This is particularly important if you save multiple versions of a single
project.
Use intuitive, easy-to-read names for your files. Do not use spaces, capitalization, or special
characters. Only use letters, numbers, dashes, and underscores. If you save multiple versions
of the same file, devise a consistent numbering system such as site_menu01.swf,
site_menu02.swf, and so on. Many designers and developers choose to use all lowercase
characters in their naming schemes. Many Flash designers and developers adopt a naming
system that uses a noun-verb or adjective-noun combination for naming files. Two examples
of naming schemes are as follows: class_planning.swf and my_project.swf. Avoid cryptic file
names.
It is good practice to save new versions of a FLA file when you build an extensive project. The
following are different ways that you can save new versions of files:
■
Select File > Save As, and save a new version of your document.
■
Use version control software (such as SourceSafe, CVS, or Subversion) to control your
Flash documents.

If an alert message indicates that content will be deleted if you save in Flash MX
2004 format, click Save As Flash MX 2004 to continue. This might happen if your
document contains features, such as graphic effects or behaviors, that are available
only in Flash 8. Flash does not preserve these features when you save the document
in Flash MX 2004 format.

SourceSafe on Windows is the only supported version control software that
integrates with the Project panel. You can use other version control software
packages with FLA documents, but not necessarily in the Project panel.
