ATR> I believe they programmed a AS3 based 3D ATR> Rasterizer to create this flip - AS3 can do that quite easy since ATR> it provides all necessities to do so : ATR> ATR> ByteArray to hold the pixels ATR> Matrix to do the transforms ATR> BitmapData to manipulate and draw .... and more ....
Flash 8 has everything what is needed for such an effect. ATR> Besides if content is retrieved from inside a DB ATR> or from some kind of Backend, chances are you ATR> would not have a way to transform the content ON ATR> THE CLIENT - meaning you would have to convert ATR> the content from Text to Image on the Server -- arrghhh sounds tricky :) If you already know BitmapData, probably you are familiar with BitmapData.draw(), too :) Well, I think you are overcomplicating something, this effect is not so hard to create as you expect :) Attila _______________________________________________ [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
