I located a methodology for generating PNGs from Flash at runtime here: http://jerryscript.hostrocket.com/flash/draw/SWFDrawing2JPEG.html
It makes use of the GD and Ming libraries. Has anyone on the list used this method, or something similar? I'd be interested in any lessons you learned through your experience - advantages, disadvantages, gotcha's, etc. Thanks -Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Robson Sent: Thursday, November 16, 2006 10:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Flashcoders] Searching for Generator-like utility Remember Macromedia Generator? With the Generator extensions in the Flash authoring environment, you could create .swt files with placeholders for dynamic data and images. The Generator Server could then render these at runtime into .swf, .jpg, .gif, or .png files. With the advent of Flash MX, Generator was phased out. Does anyone know of a way to implement the functionality of Generator today? Specifically, I'm looking to convert Flashs file to .png files at runtime. Any thoughts / suggestions? -Jim _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
