Why not create a simple ANT build script that simply copies your XML files into the appropriate directory for you. Then uncheck the copy non-embedded files checkbox. Then execute that script when you need to (assuming your XML doesn't change every time) or add the script as another builder on the project.

Unfortunately, we can't uncheck this, or our XML files don't get copied. You would think it would not copy the _embedded_ files, but it does. > Also, you can embed your assets via your stylesheet by selecting your css > file in package explorer and selecting, "Compile CSS to SWF" from the > context menu.

Besides, I doubt it will stop the files that get compiled into the swf from also being copied to the debug folder. I'm really just looking for a way to get it to stop the delete embedded files/copy embedded files cycle every time it compiles. This would save a HUGE amount of time. Thanks!
