Re: FLASH:Use of Scenes(Was: What's the difference...?)

[Michael Greenberg]

Hi Marie,

My experience with scenes is this....


I agree with what you are saying as far as organization.I sometimes use

Flash in that manner as a Storyboarding Tool to help illustrate things to a

project manager or whoever (I use Director in that manner as well). I will

take my storyboard fla and open as a library and have at it.


As far as lag differences I have noticed that for a scene with no bitmaps

and very few vectors (in other words not much) there is not much lag at

all,but with a scene of an substance or complexity scenes really blow. I

guess if you like the scenes that much you can always use a preloader up

front. You can often make a fun preloader as well..


Sorry to venture off there,but as far as scenes go I never use them for

production work especially since the arrival of movie clips.


There you have it my view of scenes,but to each their own:)


Hope this helps in some way,shape, or form,

Michael
