<snip/> This is essentially correct, although I don't yet have a good example of the SVG that might be used. All I'd like to do at this stage is have an mx:Button which highlights a corresponding polygon. The data could conceivably be embedded, I wouldn't be intending to load in new SVG files on the fly. I don't have a proper project yet, it's very much a proof-of-concept thing. The best solution is probably the one that doesn't require me to be a complete Flash guru. :o) Having the Flex server translate the SVG into the final SWF sounds like the best solution to me, if it can be done. It seems I either treat SVG as an image, but then I can't manipulate it, or I treat it as XML, in which case Flex won't let me display it. Thank you for all of your suggestions. I've searched as you suggested and found DENG (Flash-based SVG rendering) as well as an article by Helen Triolo, these certainly sound like avenues worth exploring.
