(Not sure if this is the right place for this...)

Is it possible to have insert work with swfupload module? I can't find anything on this.

I've been looking at how the swftools patch was done (didn't try it though) and I've been looking at imagecache.inc assuming it should be something simular. I'm not able to understand the inner workings just yet.

Yes support for swftools would be nearly identical to the ImageCache implementation, but it hasn't been written yet. The trouble though being that you'd almost certainly need to allow Full HTML for this to work, since SWF tools is centered around embed and object tags. Most WYSIWYG editors are a nightmare when it comes to managing such tags, I'm not sure I'd really recommend it as a user-friendly concept.

I don't think that's a problem since I'm not looking for insert for flash-files but for images uploaded with swfUpload.

Oh, I was reading "swfTools" instead of "swfUpload". Insert should work with any widget as long as it handles Drupal behaviors correctly, though an implementation will have to be written to add support for it.

How's progress on this one? Can't wait to see it work.

+1 multiupload provided by swfupload is really nice and i would like to re-enable it ;)

Agreed.. We're running into the same problem.

I dug in to what it would take, and though I can make a little progress to get the insert settings to show up on the swfupload widget settings page, it won't show the insert button.

Also interested in this function.

Just to leave no dead ends,

For D7 the combination of:
Multiupload Filefield Widget ( http://drupal.org/sandbox/czigor/1115362 )
and
Multiupload imageField widget ( http://drupal.org/project/multiupload_imagefield_widget )

works great!

Great. As I've said in a lot of other issues, Insert is going to focus on just providing core support. Other modules will need to implement hook_insert_widgets() individually to enable Insert support.
