am using Flash CS5 and Photoshop CS3. The issue I am facing is while exporting from photoshop (optimized for web and devices) as png-24 , most of the images lose their quality inside flash. I have tried to make the publish settings for image quality 100. On lossless compression of the images, the image gets blurry. The total quality of display is highly degraded in flash in comparison to that of photoshop
View 1 RepliesIt looks perfect when the stage is set to 100%. But when I shrink the stage (even in the SWF), the quality of the image becomes choppy and the edges of objects become pixelated. Same thing with enlarging it. The publish setting JPG quality is set to 100%. How do I fix this? It's mostly the quality of shrinking it that I'm worried about; this image/flash will go on a webpage & I plan to have it automatically adjust its size based on the browser's size.I'm using Flash CS5 with Actionscript 3.0.
View 3 RepliesWhy, when I have a very sharp photo that was saved/resized from Photoshop (a jpg) that I open in Preview (mac image viewing app) it looks perfect, as it should look, but once I import it to Flash with lossless and high quality settings, it looses some of its saturation and a little bit of darkness? I'm STILL working on my friend's photo site and this is a problem she first brought up. I don't know what to do, none of my flash books cover this for CS3. I'll have to totally restructure this site to have the photos dynamically loaded if I can't resolve this problem within Flash.. or between Photoshop and Flash. I just tested externally loading one of these images. Same damn problem. There must be some setting necessary that I'm missing. Maybe the color profile of the image when saved from Photoshop before Flash handles it?

View 1 RepliesI just put together a banner image in photoshop that I would like to import into Flash and put a small navigation menu at the bottom but whenever I use the import to stage feature I am getting a large amount of discoloration in the image. I've tried saving it as a .tif and .png but both came out looking poor. Attached is an image to show what I mean.

I am creating a plug-in for photoshop using javascript. I am trying to display a photo within my flash plugin window, but when I pass the address of the file to the mxml code, it uses a home directory indicator, and not a full file path.For example:C:Users***DesktopPicspicture_name.jpgis passed as ~DesktopPicspicture_name.jpgAnd the mxml can't find that file because it is not in full path format.

how to import photoshop images to flash without the image looking pixelated or blurry?When the flash movie is exported as a swf and embedded to html, the images look blurry and pixelated and not sharp like they are in photoshop.It is not the size because I resized the images in flash before i imported the images into flash. The flash document size is 72 dpi would this be the problem?

I have a logo which I have created in photoshop, it is made up of 4 layers, some of which I want to animate. I create my movie, I do so by opening my PSD file and then animating the layers. However I have a problem in that when I view my movie the image quality is poor, and there is what I would describe as noise around some of the image.
View 1 RepliesI notice when I run animations in the flash player, the image quality because very pixelated and blocky when I enlarge the animation.
I need my website to scale to different screen resolutions, so this can be a problem. Is there any way to make images smoother when the flash file is enlarged beyond it's native resolution? I really need to know since my website has to scale to a LOT of resolutions.
The site is build up entirely in flash. I let flash publish with the option scale: default (show all).
Can that be the reason why the pictures on the site look so bad? The picture looks so unsmooth, you see so many pixels in the borders. How come?

View 1 RepliesI'm having a problem with importing a layered PSD file into Flash, an issue which i've read about in a number of forums but haven't yet been able to fix.
The content of the PSD file in question is numerous layers of line drawing which I am importing to the Stage and converting to keyframes in Flash. The layers have no white background and are clear but for the lines of drawing.
The problem I'm having is that the first layer of the PSD file imports perfectly, with its quality intact, but all those which follow it are distorted and jagged, and look pretty awful for some reason.
I have experimented with both lossy (set at 100) and lossless compressions to try and improve the layer quality, lossless is marginally better but not the best.
I am creating simple drawings in Power Point and them saving them as png or jpg files. I then bring the drawing into Flash using import to stage. The imported drawings lose some quality (e.g. straight lines appear jagged). Any way to maintain image quality when importing images into Flash.
View 5 RepliesThis is very strange.i would like to show in my swf movie all the icons (jpg/png) I've imported as they are. I've set the JPG quality 100%, I've tried the PNG settings without quality lost, I've unchecked the "Allow smooth" setting.
But as soon as the movie have quality=high all the icons are smoothed/breaked and do not looks like the original ones [URL]..Instead, setting quality=low let show the icons as they are![URL]..Of course, I need the movie to be quality=high, since there will be some other stuff on it!
[URL] The above wasn't really the answer that I was looking for. I'm looking for an online image editor which I can embed into my pages, so users can edit images and submit them. I'm fine with it being Flash or Canvas/JS, no Silverlight or Java . Should have these features, or close to: File upload for image or remote url fetch Layer-based like Photoshop Magic Wand/Pen/Pencil/Brush/etc Text editing Cropping tool

View 2 RepliesI want to use a camera which is installed in my computer in a Flex AIR application I'm writing, and I have few questions regarding the quality options : Do I have any limitation on the video image quality? If my camera supports HD recording, will I be able to record in HD format via the AIR application? How can I export the recorded video in any format I want? If I want to use the same camera for shooting stills, how can I ensure (within the code) the best quality for the result pictures?
View 1 RepliesI'm getting reduced image quality when I modify my MovieClip's .rotationY property. I've read that flash converts the object into a bitmap which explains the reduction in quality. However my MovieClip will eventually return to it's default position .rotationY = 0; and i don't want it to have a loss in quality.
