Is there an easy way to convert autocad polygons to adobe swf format?

I am looking for a easy way to convert Autocad polygons to swf files. Is there a converter for开发者_开发百科 that? Or is there an intermediatory format that can be used to convert from polygons to the adobe flash swfs. Each polygon would be a swf file.

Short answer would be 'not really' at the moment.

I found this interesting blog entry about a Flex/Flash AutoCAD DWG/DXF Viewer, and the comments explain the project approach better.

Also, Autodesk Butterfly looks great, maybe it can be handy.

Another thought would be converting 2d plan views to SVG and using an as3 svg render library.

Update: The the as3 svg render library is the developer friendly version.

You can use Illustrator as intermediary tool as it imports AutoCAD plan views and export Flash(SWF)

Here's a tutorial I've put together:

1. Open up the AutoCAD file in Illustrator
2. Select the Layer that nests all the shapes:

3. In the Layer's palette select Release To Layers(Sequence)

4. Go to File > Export > choose Flash as the output format
5. In the SWF Options you can select AI Layers to SWF Files if that is what you need. You can also export to symbols, single file, etc.

You can even export animation as swf from Illustrator. Say you have a lathe/revolve or extrusion: you can duplicate it, modify the duplicate's properties, make a blend, release to layers then export the layers as SWF frames :)

A "swf" file is not a 3d format per se, therefore "converting autocad polygons to adobe swf format" is ill formed
