Frequently Asked Questions

Why Flash Particle Studio?
Flash Particle Studio allows you to create a stunning particle effect easily by simply selecting the effect and adjusting the parameters. You can then publish the result as an SWF/FLV file, AVI video or series of images with/without transparency.

What features are not available in the trial version?
The trial version will not allow you to save a project file and the software will expire within 15 days.

Does Flash Particle Studio save my bitmap file into the project file?
No it does not. Only the reference to the bitmap file will be saved. The reason is so that you can modify the bitmap file easily and all projects using that bitmap will automatically use the modification.

Why can't I save a project file?
You cannot save a project file during a trial period. You can remove this limitation by registering the software here.

Why are the zoom buttons disabled?
A: The zoom buttons are disabled when the preview is currently playing the animation. Stop/Pause the playback to enable those buttons.

Why are some changes to the particle effect settings not instantly visible when the animation is paused?
Some of these settings apply to the newly created particles. When the animation is paused, there are no new particles yet created. Thus what are currently visible are the old particles which use the old settings. Play the preview to see the changes.

Does Flash Particle Studio create a looping animation?
Yes it does. Select Effect mode "Looping" in the Select Effect tab to enable the looping animation.
