RE: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Builder 2.0.1 the update !

2007-01-18 Thread Sho Kuwamoto
One word of warning about turning off flashType. The difference in the
quality of the embedded fonts is night and day with flashType. It's fine
to turn this off during development, but you should really turn it back
on when you finally go into production.

 I was experiencing the same slowdown after upgrading to flex

 Saw the blog about closing projects, closed everything but the one

 working on, still slow

 Deleted all projects and created a blank application, super fast.
 Ok... so must be something in my project... started hacking away at
 the files until I came down to the fonts.

 Deleting the style tag for a blank appliaction, it compiled
immediately 1-1.5sec


 Here is what's going on (or so I think)

 FlashType support

 FlashType is the text rendering engine introduced in Flash Player 8.
 It improves the readability of text, especially at smaller font
sizes.
 To leverage the FlashType engine in Flex 2, you had to create a SWF
 that embedded a particular font using the Flash authoring tool, and
 then embed that SWF file in your Flex application. With Flex 2.0.1,
 the mxmlc compiler can now embed a font using the FlashType engine
 directly, eliminating a step for many developers.


 So I'm back to running fast as long as I dont embed fonts via css,
 I'll reenable it when I need to publish a working version (or look
 into creating the SWF file on my own and not use CSS)

Rick, you might be able to still embed fonts without experiencing such a
dramatic performance problem. Try embedding the fonts but disabling
FlashType (it's enabled by default):

 @font-face {

 Do you have embeded fonts in your application?

 I was experiencing the same slowdown after upgrading to flex
2.0.1. I
 had 2.0 installed, updated to 2.0.1, then ran the clean command
prior
 to opening flex. It was still slow.

 Saw the blog about closing projects, closed everything but the one
I'm
 working on, still slow

 Deleted all projects and created a blank application, super fast.
 Ok... so must be something in my project... started hacking away at
 the files until I came down to the fonts.

 This took almost 20seconds (on my machine) to compile

 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
 mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;


 mx:Style
 @font-face {
 src: url(/assets/fonts/ARIAL.TTF);
 fontFamily: myArial;
 }
 @font-face {
 src: url(/assets/fonts/BKANT.TTF);
 fontFamily: myBkant;
 }
 @font-face {
 src: url(/assets/fonts/TAHOMA.TTF);
 fontFamily: myTahoma;
 }
 @font-face {
 src: url(/assets/fonts/TIMES.TTF);
 fontFamily: myTimes;
 }
 @font-face {
 src: url(/assets/fonts/TREBUC.TTF);
 fontFamily: myTrebuc;
 }
 /mx:Style

 /mx:Application


 Deleting the style tag for a blank appliaction, it compiled
immediately 1-1.5sec


 Here is what's going on (or so I think)

 FlashType support

 FlashType is the text rendering engine introduced in Flash Player 8.
 It improves the readability of text, especially at smaller font
sizes.
 To leverage the FlashType engine in Flex 2, you had to create a SWF
 that embedded a particular font using the Flash authoring tool, and
 then embed that SWF file in your Flex application. With Flex 2.0.1,
 the mxmlc compiler can now embed a font using the FlashType engine
 directly, eliminating a step for many developers.


 So I'm back to running fast as long as I dont embed fonts via css,
 I'll reenable it when I need to publish a working version (or look
 into creating the SWF file on my own and not use CSS)

I got that all the time, even with 2.0.0. I had to switch to the stand
alone Flex Builder. That plugin is buggy.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Builder 2.0.1 the update !

2007-01-16 Thread Mac Martine

If you are running out of memory in plugin, you can increase the memory for
Eclipse with the additional VM argument: -Xmx768m, which lets it use up to
768MB of memory. If you have less free memory, adjust accordingly.

More on that here:
