[Flashcoders] Resizing Images
I have a small movie where I am importing images and dynamically resizing them - the problem is that when it is shrunken - it gets really pixellated - I am using jpegs - is there a way to make it so they look better - maybe import a different type of image ? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Resizing Images
Hi Theodore, (I'm assuming this is AS2...) Are these images in the library? If so, go to Properties and make sure Smoothing is ticked. If you're loading external images, there is a bug in AS2 which stops smoothing from working properly. There's a workaround for it detailed here: http://code.awenmedia.com/node/27 That should get rid of the pixellation. Hope that helps, Ian On Tue, Jul 22, 2008 at 5:40 PM, Lehr, Theodore M (N-SGIS) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a small movie where I am importing images and dynamically resizing them - the problem is that when it is shrunken - it gets really pixellated - I am using jpegs - is there a way to make it so they look better - maybe import a different type of image ? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

smoothing. Cast the image as a Bitmap and apply smoothing, and you'll be able to resize without image degradation. function loadTheImage(iMG):void { url = uploads/+iMG+.jpg; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); var loader:Loader = new Loader(); loader.load(request); loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onThumbLoad); loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preLoader); } function onThumbLoad(e:Event):void { //cast the loaded content as Bitmap var b:Bitmap; b = e.target.content as Bitmap; b.smoothing = true; this.img_mc.addChild(b); } .m On Tue, Jul 22, 2008 at 12:40 PM, Lehr, Theodore M (N-SGIS) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a small movie where I am importing images and dynamically resizing them - the problem is that when it is shrunken - it gets really pixellated - I am using jpegs - is there a way to make it so they look better - maybe import a different type of image ? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Resizing Images
Do you even need to cast as Bitmap? can't you just do container.forceSmoothing = true; ? Oops - that might be AS2. On Tue, Jul 22, 2008 at 12:59 PM, Matt S. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: smoothing.
