Hi!

2 questions:

1)

I had a very large Director movie - 187 MB on the hard disk -, which was
mainly so large because of one very large bitmap cast member (150 MB alone).
I didn't want to have this big picture in there, but I had no choice,
because of a Director bug (I reported that earlier). Anyway. I wanted to
streamline the size of the Director movie a bit and I did "save and
compact".

So now the file size is 333 MB. And the directImage Xtra won't export my
image anymore pretending it didn't have enough memory. (1 GB installed,
win2k, Dir 8.5)
When the file size still was at 187 MB, the export worked fine.

How can I get the filesize down again?

2)
The Lingo commands freebytes or freeblocks are of no use at all, because
they are only telling the installed memory, regardless of how many programs
are running or how much objects I put into memory. Is there another way of
knowing how much memory is used?

I mean, Director says: 1024 MB free, DirectImage says: Not enough. That's
not funny.

Thanks
Michael
