Is possible to create the .fla file with image in 300 dpi (so I can print from original .swf files with images in high resolution) and ask to flash to reduce the images resolution in automatic only in the final publication?
View 1 RepliesSo I've been surfing the net trying to find a way to get a 100% resolution from Flash to Gif and can't find it.Here is the deal, I've got Adobe CS5 and I started doing animation in photoshop. It took forever but once I got it done it looked awesome and I could easily transfer it into a gif via 'save for web and devices".Because it was taking forever I decided to learn flash and after a day I got the basics pretty much figured out and made my first .swf file. I then went to turn it into a Gif and the resolution sucked and the timing was off.

How to save Movieclip to pdf Format with high resolution.
My company sent me a video that they wanted us to post on the intranet. It's a simple powerpoint video with a narrator talking about some policy and benefit changes, etc.
I tried the exporting the video in both 720(width) and 1280 format, and found that when shown in fullscreen mode, the 1280 format was much easier to read than the 720, however, we didn't want to show it on the intranet page at full 1280 by default. So I modified the html and javascript that plays the movie so that it would show in 720 width on the page. The problem with resizing the 1280 video into a 720 space is that the video player bar (where the play, stop, volume controls are) becomes extremely small when I do this. Of course, this is because Flash generated the player with a toolbar optimized for 1280, so it's getting scaled down when I pack it into a smaller playing area.
Is there an solution to this that I haven't thought of? How can I generate this movie to get the better full screen appearance of the 1280 video, but also still show the video in a smaller 720 area when the user is not in full screen mode?
I seem to be getting a very low FPS when I set the Resolution to "High" instead of "Standard". Even when I'm rendering the most minimalistic shapes (A small moving box going left to right). When I render the same project on my iPhone with the Resolution set to "Standard" I notice a very significant FPS increase. However, everything else looks terrible (trying to optimize for the Retina display). Is this just a simple Flash limitation? Or is it the actual iPhone 4 itself? I've played several games with the iPhone 4, at Retina Display graphics as well, and they all seem to be very fluid. So based on my judgement, it's a Flash limitation. I am unsure though.

View 2 RepliesIm building a program that queries a database for options and displays the options in a number of comboBoxes. The comboBoxes are dynamically built and loaded via code and added to the stage. I would like to build the comboBoxes into a single movie clip (maybe not the correct wording) so I can use options like tweening and such to make it look better. The code is below.

how can i make a high score table for a flash game where EVERYONE see's the same high scores?
eg.
Bill gets 1000 in USA
Ben gets 1002 in UK
they can see each others scores on a high score table.
I would like to create an Options Menu in my Flash AIR application for Android. I've figured out already, that this ActionScript code could be used for capturing the hardware Menu button press event:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, _onKeyDown);
function onKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.MENU) {
event.preventDefault();
trace("Menu Pressed");
}}
But how do you create the actual menu? If you can't do it with AIR, then has anybody tried to recreate/mimic it manually already and could you please share the properties (colors, transparency, any gradients?) and transitions (sliding in/out) you've used? I've found some guidelines already, but any Flash-specific tips/properties (like which easing to use for sliding transitions?).
I created a swf file for one my clients using a screen size of 1024px x 768px (4:3 ratio), now my client wants to re-use the video in a bigger screen (TV) that still uses a 4:3 ratio but the screen size is considerably bigger (I do not have the exact size yet). Do I need to recreate the flash file using images that fit the new screen size, or the fact that they both use a 4:3 aspect ratio means that the image quality will not suffer?
View 1 RepliesI want to create a simple high score list of 10 high scores of a game. From reading the forums I seem to get the idea that flash cannot create a simple text file. I don't have php or asp but do have cgi capability. Does anyone know where I can find a simple cgi-script that will allow me to write the text the cgi receives to a simple text file: game.sco I want to be able to write a single long string to it so that I create a string of values and can load it back in using flash loadvariables. I can create the string in flash... but how do I write it to a text file using a cgi script? the text file would include this string...I already know how to read it and split it to parse it into arrays:

View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a high score table offline that doesn't need php just relies on dynamic textboxes.I am basing it on a kind of random football results generator. I have been able to get the random scores and add points to a team depending on the score but now I would like to be able to display them in a 'league' table based on their points score.
View 7 RepliesMy group is working on a Flex/AS3 scientific web application that is data intensive. Luckily the only plots involved are line charts. However, each line chart may have multiple traces (up to 24), and each trace may contain up to 2000 points. The user will need to zoom in and out and interact with the data (e.g. data tips, etc.).
The response I'm getting from developers is that's a lot of data to render in a plot in Flash. For reasons beyond the scope of this post, we can't sample the data to reduce the size (this has already been done and nature of the data prevents further sampling).
Rendering speed is critical for this app. What kind of rendering speed should I expect the Flex 4 line chart component to provide for a given number of points (e.g. 1 second to render 1000 points?)
Are there products available that handle plotting large data sets better, which can be incorporated in Flex (I've seen FusionCharts and ZingCharts online but have no idea how they compare with Flex's components)? Of those, which are easy to develop with while still providing a lot of flexibility in look and feel?
For some reason I am unable to create a FLV file from a MP4 file with high bitrate. I even created a custom setting and specified bitrate as 2500 but the output file is always around 775.

This looks right to me but it won't drag and drop. I would like to drage the mc "medium" over the mc "box". If it is over it on release then lock to the center. Otherwise, go back to its original position.

View 5 Repliesi'm trying to convert mpg videos to flv videos. i'm using adobe cs3 flv converter as well as quicktime pro. both yield a flv with no audio.
i open the video in quicktime pro. it plays with sound. then i go up to FILE > EXPORT > MOVIE TO FLASH VIDEO (FLV) click on OPTIONS then click on AUDIO. it's all grey. no audio options.
i am aware of this problem/solution regarding flv's stopping short but i'm not even get audio options. "It has everything to do with sound sample rate! You need to export your movies that are currently using 22.050 kHz and to a new quicktime movie with a 44.100 kHz sample rate. THEN export as a .flv with whatever frame rate and .mp3 compression rate you need. This should fix the problem!"
I'm running Flash CS4 on a laptop and find it gets sluggish. I find when I restart my computer, I can work at a good speed for a while, but eventually it becomes very laggy - why is this?
Can I dump the cache files or something to simulate the restart? I've reduced the undo history to 10 - any other tips for CS4 on a mediocre machine?
i want to make a check button where you can put a tick or a cross in the box. is this possible?
