How to Fast Edit SWF/GLS Tag Values by Sothink SWF Editor?

Sothink SWF Editor is a super easy tool for you to edit SWF/GLS files. It can read and analyze structure of SWF/GLS files, and list all the tags in a tree view. You can edit the SWF/GLS file with the same method by directly changing the tag values. But one more thing should be mentioned that gls file can not be previewed in the program currently.

Note: To avoid unexpected error, you can't edit those tag values that will impact the SWF/GLS file structure.
