exporting swf

Does anyone know of a place where I can determine which effects created in AE are supported when exported out as a .swf file? I keep getting a "file is busy (delete) (-47)" error message. I suspect it has to do with an unsupported feature like blending modes. Thanks.
 
"File is busy delete" means that you are trying to overwrite a file that is considered to be in use by your computer, even if it isn't in some cases. If you export "MyComp.swf", then open it, then try to overwrite it, your computer says "Whoa, hold on AE.. I'm using this". Either rename the file, or move the old SWF to the trash/recycle bin.

However, to answer your question, you can simply select "Ignore Unsupported Features" and do a comparison to so what is included and what isn't. It's been a while since I've tried to do a vector based SWF from AE, but the last time I did it, it seemed that only basic transformations were not rasterized.
