Clean Image Rendering In Flash Player?
Apr 3, 2011
We are building a flash based product where we need to create icons for various modules. we are having challenges in look and feel of the icons- what looks really good on Adobe Illustrator/ Photoshop looks jagged on flashPlayer. A challenge we have is that the overall screen aspect ratio and hence aspect for the icons which are relatively sized can change
we were told in discussions with some adobe folks that
a) we need to build icons which are square, and in multiples of 32 pixels.
b) use a png format
As per them, this way the pixelation is reduced and diagonal lines won't appear jagged- we still have an issue on rendering in flash player

I am building a website that has a separate .swf for each page of the site. Each page is loaded into shell_mc using loadMovie. When a new page loads, I run shell_mc.unloadMovie before calling shell_mc.loadMovie(newPage). I am just wondering if the unloadMovie command will destroy everything in the current page that might take up memory before it begins loading a new page.

I would like to use SWF files as source video data within a tool chain I am developing. The problem is, I can't seem to find a consistent way to convert them, and I'm concerned about the loss of quality that the conversion will introduce.
I actually even have Flash CS3, but the export process to anything other than swf is flaky at best. It does different things depending on what video format you export to, and doesn't seem to be consistent across Flash (fla) files.
The options I have come up with are:
1) integrate someone else's source code to parse/play back the swf files, and capture the output directly that way.
2) create some kind of frankenstein work flow using Air or Flex to play the swf and export each frame to an image format, and then read those into the application where I want the data.
Integrating someone else's code seems pretty gross to me. The code available that I can find is at least 2 Flash versions old, so I'd have to do a fair amount of work for this. And when Adobe releases the next version of Flash, I'll have to add support for the new features in myself anyways. Were I to write a player myself from scratch, using the SWF specifications Adobe has published (assuming everything is actually documented enough), I run into the same issue: continued maintenance on a regular basis. And for most likely undocumented (or slowly documented) features.
Creating a frankenstein work flow using Air/Flex seems like a smarter approach, but will be really cumbersome and most likely slow.
Has Adobe released source code for their player somewhere, or better yet, a (C++) library that I could use?

From here I read that the flash player software renderer only draws every pixel once, the page says something like this "Using the software renderer, each pixel is drawn only once, so there is no penalty no matter how many graphical elements are covering each other at that pixel location. " I was wondering what are the implications of this, does this mean that flash player has some sort or occlusion testing inbuilt yes it may not be culling the occluded triangles but it does not seem to render it.
How later on, I came across this page which talks about culling. If I decide to render objects in a 3D world do I have to implement my own culling code or will the flash player software renderer. do it for me

i have found that:
1. There has a subtle difference between a static text field in flash authoring tool which has been set to use the device font when it's got focus(state that user can type character in) and lose focus;
2. There also has a subtle difference between when it is being rendered in flash player and in flash authoring tool.(Note that the key factor here is setting the text field to use device font.)

I am trying to render an image with text and images that are on a .swf file. What i am doing is saving all the objects and their properties in an XML and then using imagemagick to render all that. the problem i am facing is that imagemagick treats fonts very different than Flash, so i don't get a perfect copy of what i see in the flash to what i see on the rendered image.
how to match font sizes between flash an imagemagick?

I have a little game where I'd like a background image to slowly resolve. Basically, it starts out quite pixelated and slowly resolves to "clean". Is there a popular library or something for this? I've found a couple of examples on the web, but they all seem a bit heavy duty.

Is there a major issue with rendering Flash in Safari?
I have search for a way to display, for example, Adobe Home Page in Safari and be able to see all the menus "on top" and have not found a solution.
I have tried setting wmode to either opaque or transparent but no change.
I am using the latest download of Safari (vs 4.0.4[531.21.10]) on Windows 7.

do you know about some free flash web application which can load images directly from folder and animate them (as a video player)? I mean, I have a folder with set of images and I want to animate them (switch one by one) in e.g. alphabetic order. Set of images will be randomly cumulate in time therefore I want to automatize this process and that's also why I can't use common video player which works with loading of video file.

Is it possible to load a jpg in place of a flash object if no player is found on the viewers browser?
I've figured out how to load an alternative page using "onload" as part of the body tag if no flash player is found, but just need to have something to load an alternative image object instead.

I`m designing a site with an interactive header created in Flash. how to display an alternative image (a .png) in it`s place if a user doesn`t have the Flash Player? Of course, this is especially important for visitors using iPhones! The site logo is part of the Flash movie, which makes it all the more important that something is displayed in the movie`s place. I`ve heard their are ways of doing it with Javascript, but is this really necessary?

I am having a flash object integrated in my html page. It requires a version of 10 to run it. If the client is not having the flash player of 10 or above, the flash will not come and it will look a bit odd. In that case, I want to show an alternate image. What is the best way to do it?In fact I have the javascript code for it. But I dont know how to utilize it to get what I need.[code]

I'm trying to make a UCI (user created interface) for the music player, Cowon D2. Basically, I am trying to create mirror effects for album art movie clips.
I have searched high and low but have been unable to find a suitable solution which would work on Flash Player 7 with Actionscript 2.0. I had started to lose hope but decided to ask on this forum as a last attempt.
I have previously just flipped the movie clips then set alphas on them. However, it does not look very nice. I would prefer a gradiented mirror image.
BitmapData and Matrix classes are however not supported by Flash Player 7.

My client has purchased a Flash template which I'm in the process of editing. The XML file has 5 images linked to the Flash file, I've replaced the first 3 images, all works when uploaded to the remote server but when I delete the the last image (5) only the first 2 images show when run in Flash Player. If I view it in live view Dreamweaver (CS5) it runs with no problems ie it runs through the 4 images as expected.Can't figure it out checked the usual things, deleted the files on the server, cleared the cache in Firefox, I'm quite rattled spent the whole day on this, still can't get it to work.

Is there any possible way to play a .jpeg sequence using .flv player on-the-fly ? I mean, by not needing to convert the entire sequence into one single .flv ? Since I'm not familiar with flash neither action script, I was surfing the web in hope to find any template or tips about similar things to that but I couldn't...
Here's the main list of features:
1- Browse button to load a sequence eg. < filename >####.jpeg
2- Play button with a slider time
3- Previous and next frame-by-frame buttons
4- FPS slider from 0 to 30
My main reference is this stand app called Cyber-D's Image Sequence Viewer.

I am attempting to create a swc file that is CLEAN; meaning a .swc files without odd symbols included as classes and whatnot. I am able to not include undesired external classes so that's not a problem, that is working fine. The problem is that I have found that if any of my movieclips have a stop(); on them (and presumably any other as code) those movieclips show up as classes in my .swc library which I really would not like to see. I want my class to have only it's main class visible without any extra classes generated by flash.
For example: I have a movieclip with a linkage to a Main class and inside that I have a movieclip called btn1 that has an animation inside with a stop at the end. When I export the .fla as a .swc I get my main class in the library as com.test.display.Main but then in addition I also have the flash generated class in there as test_fla.btn1. I didn't create this class so I don't want it in there

I am trying to find a way to render a Flash object, more specifically a Open Flash Chart, in the server, and save a screenshot of it to a temp file to embed it in on a PDF report.
I've found some solutions that use Javascript to generate a temp file in the browser, and then send it to the server (like here). However I need to generate reports automatically and send them as e-mail attachments, so I cannot render it using a browser.

if (fn==1) { panel.estadoimg.addChild(imageLoader); loadImage(datosXML.localiza);}
if (fn==2) { panel.mapa.mapaimg.addChild(imageLoader); fn=0; }

I'm quite annoyed by the lack of link graphic management of the flash ide, don't you? In a web application like flash, it's quite surprising that I can link a static text but I cannot easily style it's hover/out state like html, nor simply get it underlined.Yes, I know, use the StyleSheet class and dynamic text fileds, yes... But no, that's not the way I want.
