You can edit the SOL file with the SOL Editor tool from JPEX Free Flash Decompiler. What you can do is create a list of color with it. I decided to archive this repository.

Story of Heidi's Coloring Widget Tool

Heidi's Coloring Widget (or as I call DA Pixel Maker) is a Flash App created for the 2010 contest "Show Your Love". Though to be made for the Valentine-theme contest, artists use it as a Pixel Art software, even after the end line.

Preview of the Flash App

The Flash App can played in this journal and downloaded here (If you have FlashPoint, launch with Adobe Flash Player 32.0)

Here are exemple of Pixel Art made with this Flash App

Why these tools were made

After the ZDA-Reconstruction-Tool, I decide to take another file to analyze (and take advantage of) and choose the Flash Cookie for Coloring Widget. It was easy to understand until the three bytes after "grid" part. Another factor is that I won't to lose the Art data value and getting the right color is a pain.

I know these Pixel Art are mean to be one-of-the-kind piece of work but these kind of scripts has to exist, right?

The project has been on hold for months and I have yet to find informations about how Flash software write the sol file and what these means. I feel like the sol files are under-analyze.
