I kept on getting: ArgumentError: Error #2015: Invalid BitmapData. error whenever I tried to handle image of 5184†—†3456 dimensions, until I wasn't told by my friend that there is a limit in Flash, but he didn't know what was it exactly and I can't find anything on official doc pages.
View 3 RepliesI would love to get some information from some of the old pros on here as to best practices using flash for large scale environmental displays:
1. Flash supports High Definition correct? I did a google search, and see that it does - but unsure whether I need a plug-in or it's just a setting? My question is more along the lines of - can the flash animation be highDef, or only the videos it displays?
2. I am working on a very large (like 40ft tall) environmental graphic, and curious .how you deal with images at that size? I remember vaugely, that they don't need to be 300dpi, but do i still need to maintain a certain resolution?
In flex, what we do, we normally upload the image from flex end and upload it to the serveri want to know, can we do some details checking, like i want to find out the imageesolution(on the client side) before it is uploaded to the server,There are going to be two profits, first the client doesn't need to wait for long to image get uploaded, and in case if finding the image resolution is on the server end, so it willtake time, even the image to be uploaded is not of expected resolutionsecond, the user interaction & interface with the flex application will be improved,
View 4 RepliesI'm creating a scrollbar gallery from a tutorial on this site. Though I've completed the tutorial, and customised the gallery to my own needs, however I'm trying to make a very small change to it - and no matter what I do, keep running into problems. I'm trying to replace the rectangular handle with my own customised handle - a (20 x 20) 'circular' png image that I've imported into Flash, made a graphic and stored in the library (though I understand it can be imported using actionscript, like the other images in the gallery).
[Code]....
It looks like that anytime I upload an image, it gets my screen's DPI and not its original resolution.I want to get the initial dpi of the image.Is this feasible?

View 2 RepliesI need to calculate resolution of an uploaded image in Flash/AS3.
View 1 RepliesI want to know is there anyway to invisible title bar for a AS3 project? and how to force program to use fix resolution and change monitor resolution to what we want?
View 1 RepliesI have been having a bit of trouble with AS3 and webcams. I have a script that connects to a webcam and then sends its output to a php script that saves the captured image. This works all except for one problem. It seems that the maximum resolution allowed for the actual Camera object is 320x240. I went to the extreme of hooking a Canon 60D up as a webcam because I have a normal webcam that is supposed to have max resolution of 1280x720 and all I can get is a 320x240 image from it. What I have found so far is the max I can get out of the Canon is also 320x240. Maybe I have been looking at this to long but I am stumped. Below is a sample of the action script where videoCapture should be 1024x768. What happens instead is a 1024x768 image is created with a black background and in the top left is a 320x240 image from videoCapture. I could obviously resize this but that would defeat the purpose being poor quality. Is there something I am missing here or maybe some limitation of Flash even?

Any way to copy the pixels or handle the image from URL "[URL]" in Flash? It will work fine in FLASH IDE but when I look this in browser, then it crashed. I know that its crossdomain Issue. I always get childAllowParent=false after loading. It always crashed when I want to get event.target.content or
addMC.getChildByName(mcName);
I am loading this image from Google Image search API in Flash CS3 Professional and AS3.
I am developing a flash website that will dynamically fit to the size of the end-users' browser and screen resolution. I have a 2100 X 1400 Background I'd like scaled to 100% of the screen size.
So if the user's resolution is 1680 X 1050, the image would scale to that size.
However, another problem arises - I do not want the image to "stretch" or lose quality, and that it must maintain the same aspect ratio. How can I do this?
I am embedding a lot of images(266). But none of them end up actually being embedded. Is there some type of limit on how many resources you can embed?

View 12 RepliesI am building a sliding image movie. It takes two photos and compares them by using "startDrag" to slide a "setMask" MC horizontally to reveal one photo under another. The idea here is to compare two photos taken 50 years apart.
[Code]....
As you can see I have two MCs here one is a mask and the other is a handle of sort. They work fine separately but I would like to have the two function in unison or as one MC. The handle MC is just that a handle that appears on the left edge of the masked image. So when user drags the handle the masked image moves as well. (or vice versa)
I'm doing my daily homework at Flashkit, in order to see how other people do certain thint was just the other day when I downloaded the "Fade script image gallery" by Ben Durman, when I stepped into an unsusual? behaviour that I can't get to understand.It's very simple, in the gallery there are 10 pictures. Everytime you click in one number, the previous image fades out and the new image fades in. The AS code is very simple and easy to understand. However, why I can't possibly understand is that when I create a new layer with another image, the whole movie starts to statter, transitions are not smooth any longer and some transitions are not even properly executed. The more layers/pictures I add, the worse it all gets (15 pics is almost impossible to handle)Part of the original code which makes transition between pictures happen is this:
[AS]
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// find alpha of new pic

5 buttons, 5 thumbs. I click on the third thumbnail, it shows me the 3rd picture. Pretty simple, pretty straight forward. How do I add a time limit? For instance if I click on button #3, and I stay there for 12 seconds without clicking, it goes to #4, 12 seconds later to #5, 12 seconds later to #1, etc?
Anyone knows a sample code/source, tutorial or example like this gallery: [URL] (resize the browser window to see the effect) What i want is a thumbnail gallery that shows more lines and/or columns according to user resolution (not is necessary to resize the images). It's the same idea when using HTML and creating a thumbnail list with <li> and "float:left".
View 1 RepliesMy artist drew a beautiful island but it's 5000 in width. We scroll it as it's for a Virtual World. - it's in layers and we scroll the different layers at different speeds. Flash documentation states that the limit is 2880 BUT it does work in the player i.e.: you can see the full island but it does run a little slow.
Should I
a. Create a smaller island of 2880 which is a shame as I would have to get rid of a lot of good stuff
b. Split it into two images and dynamically connect them with code.
Also, I have different layers scrolling at different speeds which would make things more difficult to look natural.
I recently wrote a small script to display an endless scroll for 360 degree images. The image is loaded dinamically so I can use it as a viewer for all the 360 degree images in the site's gallery. It works fine, but I found one image that appears truncated even though everything else works as expected. I found this [URL] that says: The maximum image size of a Flash 2 movie is 2880 x 2880 pixels The image that is giving me this problem is larger than that and it seems to be cut at 2880px widht. Can anyone confirm this? And if so, is there any way to override it since I'm using pure as? Despite the years working with flash, I keep finding these nasty surprises. Last time I learned about the 16,000 frame limit when working on a cd presentation... I wonder what's next.
View 2 RepliesI'm going to be creating a Flash presentation that will run on a flatscreen TV at a trade show. I'm not certain what resolution to set up my Flash movie to. The TV is a widescreen Panasonic 42" TH42PH10BK with 1024 x 768 pixels, however when I set my animation to those values it looks 'squarer' than the TV. It looks like I need to set up the animation to a different resolution, but I don't know which!
