Re: [Flashcoders] Colour Matching
exporting the images out from photoshop at the same time would keep them the same, so you're saying an image displayed in flash differs from an image displayed in html - this i haven't heard of. this article http://www.viget.com/inspire/the-mysterious-save-for-web-color-shift/ talks about getting consistent colors, you might want to start there but other than that i'd have to see an example of the images...

Re: [Flashcoders] Colour Matching
Have you tried pngs? Also some browsers render colors differently. The issue might be the colors that are not rendering the same shade could be non-web safe colors. It is sometimes a real headache to try and match up your flash images with html images. This is why for backgrounds you should choose one or the other. Either all in flash or all in HTML. If your color that is rendering differently in flash is a background image, you can just use the image as a guide in flash and set the wmode to transparent for the object params and embed and then have the background image added to the html to show behind the flash element. Then again, it could be how you are making your jpgs. JPGs compress when you create them by choosing clusters of pixels and make them all a similar color. When you make your image for html it could choose a different shade than when you created your image for flash. If no gradients/portraits are used, perhaps a GIF or PNG would be a better choice. --Original Message-- From: 2lakes Sender: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com ReplyTo: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] Colour Matching Sent: Dec 15, 2009 3:10 PM Hi, I have in the past and now on different projects - had trouble trying to colour match flash / bitmap content with html / bitmap content.

Re: [Flashcoders] Bizarre Issue
>From my experience, Flash has had issues composing many Bitmaps when they're overlapping each other. It'd just start hiding some of the images, roughly after 20 of them were present. Are your images overlapping? If that's what's going on, you may be able to solve it by 'grouping' the MCs in parent MCs in groups of 10 or so. Then set those parent MCs to precompose (BlendMode.LAYER, or adding an empty blur filter to force it), thus avoiding a direct composition of more than 20 layers at a time.

I have a weird issue that I will attempt to explain - if no one gets it and does not reply - I understand So I have the same MC that is used say 50 times - each on their own layer These MC have dynamic text boxes and images... they ALL start out with alpha = 0... Some have their alpha changed to 100%... none the less... when the alpha is changed ONLY the first 23 layers show everything - layers 24 and above only show the dynamic text - they do not show the images...
