I do many photography flash sites. I usually bring in all the images and then select each one, click their bitmap properties and adjust the quality individually.

When using to load XML file, I have used Event.COMPLETE, Event.Progress, IOEventListener. Since listeners take up memory ressources.
I was wondering if it's a good way and habit to optimize after it has been completed locaded by removing them.

All variables start offset by 1 (a=1, b+2, c+3, etc..)I want the values to all start over when they reach 7.You can see the lower half of code displays these images, basically rotating around a circle.What is most efficient way to script? I assume an array.
a += 1; if (a==7) {a=1};
b += 1; if (b==7) {b=1};
c += 1; if (c==7) {c=1};

So I have 10 buttons, and I would like them to all do similar actions, but I was wondering if it's possible to optimize the code somehow.
When you rollover the button I would like it to alpha IN, and then when you rollout I'd like it to alpha OUT. Lastly, onPress I'd like to go to a different keyframe in the scene.[code]...

View 4 RepliesI'm building an application in Actionscript using Flash assets, and my frame rate becomes very low (~7 fps) when I attempt to render 20+ assets on the screen, even though most of those assets are stopped movie clips. I've tried setting .cacheAsBitmap to true, which helps a bit, but not enough. What else can I do to get the frame rate up? I've noticed that some movie clips seem to impact it more than others, but I'm not sure how to alter them to make them easier to render.

I build games, which tend to run slowly when there are more than a dozen or so graphics being moved about the stage. I feel that my code is clean (I have researched code optimization) but not sure how I can make improvements with graphics. Currently, all graphics are created in Photoshop and imported to Flash as .png (I need semi-transparency, hence the .png format). I then set the image quality to low inside the library.
Every image usually resides within its' own sprite or movieClip. My games seem to slow down a fair deal when an image is introduced (such as a semi-transparent cloud drifting across the screen). Is there a special way to handle images when performance is an issue? I've only heard of stuff like cacheAsBitmap and other such fancy terms.
i'm making a website and it has some parts with flash such as the background. You can see the site here: [URL] You will see that the preloading of the background is too long beacuse i have 4 images as background in the library. the images are 950 x 650 pixel jpegs that in the library use the Photo(compression). So when the swf is on loading it take a lot of time.

This is all working fine. How can I further optimized the code (make it shorter) for last section?I created the loop for root.d and root.e of xml using for loop and while loop but then it does not add the xml values to the attachmovie text. I don�t know why?
I'm just installing Apparat, and I'm interested in using it to optimize my SWFs.
On its google code page some optimizations are listed out .. sliding window, flowgraph ... so is it possible to make use of these optimizations? how?
I have heard of the -reducer command, does it perform the optimizations? are there other commands you can use? or do you have to build apparat yourself and access it via scala?
I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
variables.ex1 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;

variables.ex3 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex4 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex5 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex6 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex7 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
But I want to optimize this. I want those variables "variables.ex1, variables.ex2, etc" are dynamic.

I work on a big Flash project as the web backend guy that delivers all the files and assets to the main application SWF. Our last, really big packet of data are all the assets and sounds contained in swf files that are imported during the preloader.Are there any ways to optimize this process in any way? I'm really looking for ideas in any direction, no matter if its in the swf, the process of loading and so on. Also I look for solutions for the first time load (empty cache) and for consequent loads (prefilled cache).
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a flash project that incorporates a lot of artwork done in Illustrator CS4. I've been copy-pasting directly from Illustrator into Flash, and I add some animations as well. Final file is going to be a one single swf file which will be a part of UI for an application and .net will be the core for this. But now flash becomes unusable slow to respond for actions. My machine is a fast i7 with 6gb of RAM, so I don't think that's the issue. We are going to use this file with dual core atom processors. Does anyone have ideas for alternative importing techniques, optimizations within illustrator, anything at all that will make this more manageable?
View 1 RepliesI have a web page with an image slideshow. JQuery calls a Flex app with a list of jpg images to load and display. Can Flex load and display the first image and then continue loading the rest of the list or can Flex only do one thing at a time (i.e. load all the images and then start the slideshow)? There is a significant delay while all the images load and I need to sped up the slideshow.

I'm currently working on a flash project that creates a lot of instances(small boxes) and puts them on the stage, this will lag significantly after a while, and I thought there would be a way to draw these boxes to a bitmap object and remove the unnecessary children.

Iam having 3 buttons in stage and three corresponding movieclips. When I clicked on one button, it should play its corresponding movieclip from the second frame. (Same case for the rest of the buttons).Here the action for the three buttons are almost same, only the movieclip differs. In AS2, I can optimize the script for the above activity as below
for (var i = 1; i<=3; i++) {
_root["btn_"+i].onRelease = function() {
myname = this._name.split("_")[1];[code]..........
My Question is ===>is there any way to add the Event listeners for all the 3 buttons using "for loop" instead of initializing it for each buttons seperately ? [Imagine if we have more than 10 buttons and it will be very boring to add the listener for each button in a seperate line ].
