Re: FLASH: Flash making QuickTime--why so little support anddevelopment?

Yeah, 4.0's market share isn't great - it's going to take time..

However, automation is possible using AppleScript with LiveStage Pro -

they've also introduced the ability to create 'movie tools' that trigger

AppleScripts allow you to extend the tool in which ever way you require.

Great for automating tasks.

I've been looking around for a new production tool for some time that frees

me from Director's Lingo, while allowing me to integrate Flash and QuickTime

assets. (I'm a designer, not a programmer - used to use mTropolis before it

was canned). Since I've been doing so much QuickTime work I've started using

iShell (http://www.tribeworks.com) to build my projects. Not as powerful as

Director, but does the job - and it's free. ;-)


In this market I wouldn't want to take the time to try and build a new tool.

Mind you, the idea is kind of sweer, isn't it? ;-)


Cheers,


Bryan
