Is there a way have smoothing = true on an image on the stage that isn't dynamically added.I know about "allow smoothing" .What I want to do is have the image smoothing = true when mouse is over the image so a tween event can occur. The reason I want to do it like this is because I don't like it when "allow smoothing'is ticked the image is blurred.
View 1 RepliesI've done quite a bit of digging but it's surprisingly difficult to find informed answers to these questions. I'm making a Flash game with a friend; as far as we can tell, the code is fine, but there are some serious framerate problems that seem entirely related to the graphics.
Is there a performance difference between Movieclips as JPGs and PNGs? Most of our graphics are imported as PNGs because they have transparent sections, but I don't know whether there is a performance difference between setting image compression to JPG or PNG within Flash itselfDoes turning on "Smoothing" for an image affect performance?Obviously larger graphics have more of a performance hit, but is there any benefit to splitting a large image into pieces? Example, changing a 2000*1000 background into two 1000*1000 pieces? One thing is most of our graphics are as much as twice the size in the library as they are displayed onscreen, then scaled in the code. We had wanted to make the game still look good when zoomed in/fullscreened but that doesn't seem practical so I'm planning on resizing all of the image files to their final size in the game and removing the scaling code. Hopefully that's the major part of the problem.
I come across this again and again in flash. Using the default timeline based tweening (with the FPS set to 24)...is there any way of smoothing out the jerkiness? any AS i can add on frame 1 for example?
View 1 RepliesI have some high res images that I am zooming in and out of, I have smoothing enabled that works fine when zooming in on the image, but when I zoom out and make the image smaller it pixelates it really badly. Is there any way i can resample the image or make the smoothing better when the image is small?
View 3 RepliesI am loading an image into my swf. My code is:
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest("btnover/Capture2.gif"));
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
imageLoader.smoothing = true;
But I get an error:
1119: Access of possibly undefined property smoothing through a reference with static type flash.display:Loader.
The image is a set size but the swf resizes with the browser, and the image becomes pixelated.
If you load a Bitmap object from a domain other than that of the Loader object used to load the image, and there is no URL policy file that permits access to the domain of the Loader object, then a script in that domain cannot access the Bitmap object or its properties and methods. I can understand this to some degree but all I want to do is scale the image and so that it doesn't look completely gash I want to smooth it and hence need Bitmap.
Smoothing to be accessible (I dont and never will have a cross-domain policy file). With video you can apply smoothing and thats coming from another domain, I can even take a bitmap snapshot of the video and so I really dont understand why they wont allow this. I am scaling the image to fit the screen either as bestfit or streched and so scaling at 0.5, 2, 4 etc wont work.
I have a image gallery slideshow, and when it loads an external image there is no smoothing applied. So being as this slideshow scales a image to the browsers window size, the image gets pixelated.Problem is, being as i did not make this slideshow myself, i dont know how to apply smoothing. And the AS code is very long, so i cant really paste it all on here.So i want to know if there is a way to force image smoothing on any image that is loaded in to the slideshow .swf? or any other way i can do it?This is with CS4 and publish settings are Flash 8 AS2.

in flash there is a setting to 'allow smoothing' for images that are imported. how can i do this in AS3 so that the images i dynamically load are smoothed (because when i scale them they look bad).

View 8 RepliesI set up this sample movie clip in the hopes to figure out a problem I'm having:[code]In the above code, I can add the contents of myImageLoader to myMovieClip with no issues and it resizes as expected (and consequently artifacts appear). With the final two lines of code, apparently myBitmap is not being loaded with the contents of myImageLoader.content which will cause the final line to fail with the following error:Code:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at loadImageTest_fla::Main Timeline/frame1()I understand the error, I just don't get why the contents are not being loaded into the bitmap object.
View 1 RepliesI'm creating a dynamic image gallery that resizes the images to fit the gallery size, and then smooths them out.I feel like I'm super close to getting it to work perfectly. The image smoothing always works, but the resizing is kind of iffy. The first image displayed will resize just fine, but when you view any others they're all distorted or squashed. What's strange is that I've traced out the resized image dimensions and they're exactly what they should be, but the images are still not resizing correctly.
Here's my code! I only included the parts of it that are really relevant, but let me know if you guys want to see all of it. It's a combination of a few tutorials that I found. I may be able to provide a live example, but it's for work so I'm not sure how the nondisclosure agreement would affect that.
Code:
var thisWidth:Number;
var thisHeight:Number;
var maximumHeight:Number;//height to which movieclip to be resized

I've got an animation with an embedded flv video in a graphic on my main timeline. The embedded video has been scaled down as I enlarge to its full original size later on in the animation. I've been racking my brain and looking all over the place for a possible solution but is there a way to switch smoothing to true for an embedded video? I've tried the old smoothing = true for the embedded video instance but it has no effect. Annoyingly the video is smoothed out nicely on the stage but when I create a swf the smoothing switches off.I don't want to separate the flv from the main fla for numerous reasons .

I'm trying to find out how to make a simple image gallery which changes image upon a mouse click on a button, when a button is pressed I want the image to slide in from the left into the viewable area and then when another image is selected I want the previous image that was viewed to remain in the screen and then the new image slide across over the top to replace the image.
I can get the images to slide across from the left upon a mouse click however I can't change the layer order so if image 6 is viewed and then I click to see image 1, the image will slide into place however it will be below image 6 so therefore not viewable.
I don't have an example of what I'm after but I hope my explanation was good enough, I've seen this been done in javascript but I have to use flash and am unable to replicate the effect I'm after
Is there a way to make the transparent area from an png image not to register when I add with a mouse event to that image? What is happening is the rectangle around the symbol is effected by the mouse event.
View 2 RepliesI created a simple mouseover (like this one http:url... )with one small image that grows to a LARGER image directly on top of the smaller image when mouse is OVER the smaller image. When user mouses OVER the smaller image the larger image appears correctly.Problem is that even when user mouses OVER the "boundries" of where the LARGER image WILL appear, that also causes larger image to appear. What I want is for the larger image to appear ONLY when mouse is OVER the smaller image.

I would like to make a flash movie with a picture, where when the user holds down the mouse button, part of another picture will emerge in that general area (like a magnifying glass looking into another dimension).
Technically, my idea was to make a flash file with two images, and then code the mouse to be able to make the top picture transparent in a circle-like area around the cursor, while the mouse button is down.
But how to do that? I am using Flash CS4, but I don't really care if the solution is in AS2, or AS3, as long as it works
Code:

View 1 RepliesI am working on an Image manipulation application which will be developed using Flash/ C#.Net. Is this possible to save the image manipulations (not the image) saved from Adobe Lightroom for a specific image & then merge these change sets with an image to make a new image using C#.Net?
Also, the application for image manipulation will be developed in the Flash/ Action Script. Please share some links as to how we can save the image manipulations for an image (not the image) so that it can be merged with an image later on.
