RE: FLASH: Graphic's good, then bad. -Matt, Eric, Sahlan-

[Williams, Marcus]

I thought it was strange as well.

I've been using the standard AfterShock publish settings.

When Matt mentioned the BEST setting, I tried the movie with the HTML page

and code. Sure enough, the images were sharp. I re-opened the SWF thru the

HTML page and it was bad.


The URL of Reba's sight uses the HIGH setting as well, and any images used

look like photo quality.

In the future I'm going to try one and if it looks bad, I'll try the other.

Weird.

Marcus

I'm not sure what the file size of the swf has anything to do with using

load movie... You can do an if frame is loaded loop in the first frame of

your main movie to check if the it has been loaded yet, if it has not

display a loading message.


As far as switching the settings to Best, that had no affect in my

situation, I tried it all. I don't know what type of graphics you are

working with, but I am using PNG's (they're screen-shots). Anything other

than using a single frame timeline causes the PNG's to become extremely

distorted. If I load my movie (which is 199k) into an one frame movie, no

problem at all... Pretty strange.
