ImageGlue.NET flash export alpha/transparency

[wizdave@gmail.com]

I am using ImageGlue .NET ([url]www.websupergoo.com[/url]) and have a question
regarding saving an image in Macromedia Flash (SWF) format. If it is
possible, how do I specify a transparent background color or an alpha
channel when exporting to an SWF file? My application draws an EPS
file onto a canvas and then saves the canvas as a SWF file.

Here is the basic code I am using to try to save the SWF with an alpha
channel:

Dim objCanvas As New Canvas
Dim objMask As New Canvas
objCanvas.DrawFile("C:\source.eps", "Pos=0,0")
objMask.DrawFile("C:\source.eps", "Pos=0,0")
objMask.Invert()
objCanvas.SetChannel("alpha", objMask.Image)
objCanvas.SaveAs("C:\dest.swf", "quality=lossless Alpha=true")

I tested using this same code to save as a PNG file with an alpha
channel and the background was transparent as expected. Anyone know
what I need to do to make the background transparent when saving as an
SWF file?

Did you manage to find a solution to this? I am experience similar issues when using gif files as my mask... All that is happening is the whole image is being whited out when the following snippet runs...

src.Color = LicensePlateColour.HexStringToColor(strForegroundC olourHex);
src.Erase();
src.SetChannel("alpha", mask.Image);
