that yes, the images are too large for Rev to really do this smoothly. If
Rev had some kind of direct-to-screen option, this might be doable, but the
images are probably a bit large for Rev to do natively. Three suggestions:
Thanks Scott - that gave me the confidence that I'm not missing anything
too obvious, so I pressed ahead.
1) If possible, map the images down to 8 bit color, no transparency. The
fewer calculations Rev has to do to render the image/s on the card, the
faster the transition can be.
2) If possible, don't do a "real" scaling effect. Instead, create the
in-between frames in advance and show those, for example, as icons of a
button. But again, given the size of the image, the delay between image
updates may still be too great, and of course, you probably want to do this
on-the-fly with any given images.
You're right - arbitrary images (sections from an entire image supplied
by the user).
I've simply limited the max size of any image that I am trying to
animate. The user can always override my choices and make bigger
sections - and choose whether to disable the animation feature.
