Blurry Graphics When Adding A Scene
Hello...i'm new at this forum and here's my first question:
When i add an extra scene to my movie (flash MX 2004) than all my graphics become blurry like a bad jpg. When i delete the scene again, the graphics are perfect.
Is this a bug in flash or am i doing something wrong? The graphics I imported are png or jpg.
I tried some changes with the jpg publishing quality, but that didn't work.
So..anyone with the solution?
Thnx in advance.

I Have Blurry Text And Graphics Help
I have a simple question but don't know an easy way to ask it. So, sorry in advance!!
When I have text or graphics that are positioned using whole numbers they look good.
for example:
x=10
y=15
When I have text or graphics that are positioned using decimal numbers they look blurred.
for example:
x=10.1
y=15.3
Can I change quality settings to make "decimal placement" look good. Or can I have my text and graphics snap to whole numbers?
Pixel Lines From Graphics Are Blurry?
Hey all-
I have a quick question..when I make a small graphic in photoshop and export it as a .gif to my flash library, one or more of the edges of the graphic are blurry...The graphic is just a 1px border around a simple square shape.
how do you all have the best luck doing pixel graphics in flash?
also, if wanting to use a pixel font, it is best to create the text field in the flash document obviously, correct?
I NEED HELP MAKING SURE MY PIXEL GRAPHICS ARE CRISP! ((
Adding Graphics To Flash...
I want to create a movie where I will have images (jpg format) scroll across the screen in either direction depending on the user clicking on a button...
First, is there a limitation on the number of images to add to Flash? I will have approximately 100 images. The movie will be run locally so I'm not worried about the file size. I'm just curious to know if Flash itself has any quirks after adding so many images.
Also, what's the easiest way to "connect" the images? I want the images to appear to be one continuous image that just scrolls in either direction (horizontal), one frame at a time.
Thanks!
Adding Effects To UI Loader (UIloader.graphics)
Hey again
With alot of help from people here at FlashKit I have created this
image viewer
http://www.kriogenicstudios.com/Imag...iewerTest.html
its nothing real special...
BUT it uses a UI Loader that I want to apply .graphic to for example
I want to draw a frame around the image in the UI loader at runtime...
probaby using something like
PHP Code:
UIloader.graphics.lineStyle(borderWidth, 0x000000,100);
UIloader.graphics.beginFill(0xFFFFFF, 100);
I KNOW THIS ISNT THE FULL CODE
But how would I apply things like that to a UI Loader object?
Flash Slide Show--adding Graphics Over Multiple Slides
I'm new to Flash--I'm trying to make a slide show presentation where the first slide has bits of a graphic and then more bits are added in subsequent slides. What is the most efficient way to do this? Many of my images are organized with layers in Illustrator if that's helpful (all CS3).
Thanks

Adding A Link To Scene
Hi,
I am a total beginner in Flash and wanted to know, how to add a link that opens in a new window to a scene?
I found out that on AS2 it was done in a manner similar to:
ActionScript Code:
on (release)
{
getURL("http://www.google.com",_new)
}
or something like that.
Right now I got to this:
ActionScript Code:
Scene.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goTo);
function goTo(e:MouseEvent) {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.google.com/");
navigateToURL(request);
}
But I get an error 1061
Basically I need to add a link to another web page on my banner.
Help please?!
Adding A Scene Distorts Images
This seems very strange to me, but why would adding a scene to the movie lower the quality of the images I am using. I have images that look fine, but if I just add a scene to the movie the quality goes way down.

Adding 2 Sound Fx To A Scene But It Interupts The First Loop
Hi, i am working through one of the tutorials in swish and i have come accross a problem. IN THE TUTORIAL "THIS IS MY MESSAGE" i have added the vector graphics and the initial sound. However i wanted to added a sound effect when the first picture loaded in. When i did this my first sound loop cuts of then startes again when the sound fx is meant to cut in. So i look at sound/actions panel. I loop 88amp3 15 times and then at my first jpeg i loop a sound fx once. But when i play the whole scene my sound fx cuts in through the whole thing. When i go back to the sound panel i find that the setting have changed and the soundfx wants to play 15 times now overiding my initial 88amp3 sound loop. Its just that in future i want to put key sounds along side pics loading in and what not, and im not sure how to co-ordinate this. Anyone know what im doing wrong? Im pretty sure im close but i cant find the solution. Any takers?
Regards,
Gibbo.
Images Look Crappy When Adding Preload-scene
I have an imagesequence that should be exported with the swf in highest quality. Works great on it self and all, no problem whatsoever, UNTIL....
I added a preloader in a scene
Now when I export, the images look all crappy! Almost bitmap-like. I swear I've checked the properties of all images and the export-settings and all that.
Can someone help me with this problem?
Much appreciated,

Adding Scene Makes Images Fuzzy
I have a flash movie (flash 5) with imported PNGs for buttons. When I add a new scene (either by duplicating or adding new), the quality of these images plummets, even though I have the publish settings set to 100% jpg quality. As soon as I delete the new scene(s), the quality is restored. Obviously I can't publish a movie with poor quality images (it's like they've been enlarged and then over-sharpened in paintshop pro or similar, except they haven't). Does anyone know if/how I can remedy this? TIA

Blurry, Blurry, Blurry
I'm trying to apply the Blur Filter Class to an _mc on a nav that rolls along the _x axis when a button is clicked. However, there is a residual blur after the motion is finished even though I set the end position of the blur to 0. Does anyone know how to correct this? Here's my code:
ActionScript Code:
if (_root.target_mc.boxes_mc._x == -398) {
var tw:Tween = new Tween(_root.target_mc.boxes_mc, "_x", Elastic.easeOut, _root.target_mc.boxes_mc._x, 0, .2, true);
tween1 = new Tween(_root.target_mc.boxes_mc.image1_mc, "Blur_blurX", None.easeOut, 100, 0, .2, true);
number = 0;
As you can see, I am using the Blur/Easing class for the blur as well as the Easing Class for the movement of the _mc.
When I put the following extra lines of code in, it helps get rid of SOME of the blur but the result is still blurry by a pixel or two:
ActionScript Code:
if (_root.target_mc.boxes_mc._x == -398) {
var tw:Tween = new Tween(_root.target_mc.boxes_mc, "_x", Elastic.easeOut, _root.target_mc.boxes_mc._x, 0, .2, true);
_root.target_mc.boxes_mc.image1_mc.Blur_blurX = 0;
_root.target_mc.boxes_mc.image1_mc.Blur_blurY = 0;
tween1 = new Tween(_root.target_mc.boxes_mc.image1_mc, "Blur_blurX", None.easeOut, 100, 0, .2, true);
number = 0;
}
PS- EVERYTHING is on a whole pixel.
God help me get through this one.

[F8] Flash Site, Multiple Scenes, Button Moves Scene To Scene Instead Of Navigating
Hi...I am very new at flash, so forgive my ignorance in advance...I really really need help!
I created a site, separated into scenes (intro, main-home, about, portfolio, press, contact).
About half the time the navigational buttons work fine. However, the other half of the time one of the buttons, the Press button, instead of bringing me to the Press scene, just moves scene to scene (for example, say I'm on the home page and I want to go to the Press page, it just goes to the about page...I hit the button again it goes to the Portfolio page, etc.). I think the problem lies somewhere in bypassing the intro prematurely (you can skip intro and go straight to the site/home-main scene), but I'm not positive.
Here's the code for the Press button:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("press", "pressframe");
}
where pressframe is the name of the first frames in the Press scene.
I can upload the fla file to my own site for download and review if necessary....
Please help!....I am losing sleep and hair over this.

Targeting Frame Label In Scene From Movie Clip In Same Scene
Hey Pals,
I'm trying to target a frame label on the timeline of a scene from a movie clip within the same scene, using Flash MX 2004 Pro. The scene is ultimately used as a .swf to load as a page of a website. The frame label is called "miscOn", the scene is called "misc". The below code is attached to a button within the movie clip.
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("tajwebsite_main.swf",1);
gotoAndPlay(miscOn);
}
Thanks!

Simple Gotoandplay - Animate The Scene Out Before Playing Selected Scene?
Hey there again,
Just wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction.
Before, when I made full-flash websites, when I clicked a button I'd have it gotoandplay frame 60 or whatever (or scene 2 or 3 or 4 etc.) and that page would start up there and have a nice little animating intro but it would be a very abrupt start because anything on the previous page would just disappeer jaggedly.
But I've seen a lot of nice sites, that once you press a button, it'll clean up the current scene, say have everything burn out or fade or or something instead of just having the next option just appear, then go to the selected page. Say they clicked News or Contact, and they were on products. It would allow me to have a timeline to animate all the objects out (just a simple tween) then once it reached the end and all the objects were out, it knew which button they pressed and where to gotoandplay.
This is probably easy actionscripting (or not, I have no clue) so it would be greatly appreciated if someone could direct me, thanks!
Scene 2 Works Fine, But When Preloaded Added Scene Will Not Work
I have a website at wosso.com which I needed a preloader. So currently the site works fine. I am toying with a preloaded, but when I add it the main part of the site does not function.
There are two scenes, PRELOADER and SCENE 1. My preloader includes this script in the first frame of the preloader: ifFrameLoaded ("Scene 1", 105){
gotoAndPlay ("Scene 1", 1);
}
I have also inluded this line at the end of the preloader, but also tried it without this line:
gotoAndPlay ("Preload", 1);
I haven't used Flash in some time and I am not good at scripting. It seems to make sense, but why is it not working when SCnene 1 works fine by itself.
Any sulotion/suggestions?
Thanks,
Wayne

Blurry Text?
Hi...someone suggested that I used a pixel font to write some small text. I've made a static text box and written my text within that.

Now here the really weird thing.....when I preview it and put the 'Quality" setting to "LOW" it looks super crisp? What am I doing wrong?

Hi!
I am preparing a CD which plays fullscreen and holds several scalable movies. Although the font I am using for texts is not very small (12 points), it looks a little blurry when presented at 800x600 pixel resolution. Besides, I can't use device fonts, since I need to mask some parts of the text.
Can you help me? Thanks in advance.

Blurry Text
I'm having a problem with blurry text. I have tried all the different things recomended by macromedia and none of them worked. The weird thing is that not all of it is blurry. In the same text area it may be clear at the top but then at the bottom it will be blurry. I am using different sized LoRes fonts.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
