Bill, Jacque, er al:
I have been able to achieve acceptable performance by changing the Art
Card design so the thumbnails are truly thumbnail imageData that
hide/show the full-resolution images and the Photo Index Card design
from buttons to thumbnail images. I also set alwaysBuffer to false for
all images...and masked the "jerky" display by adding a visual effect to
card-to-card navigation. All images still reside in the [88 MB] stack
file, but the only time an image is resized is when the viewer does it
via a "Zoom Bar."
One mystery arose during the redesign: Under what conditions will Rev
change the loc of an image when its height and/or width is changed?
This code worked in the old design:
set the height of image targetImage to x
set the width of image targetImage to trunc(x*1.5)
with expansion/contraction from the original loc of targetImage.
Now I have to script:
put the loc of image targetImage into imageLoc
set the height of image targetImage to x
set the width of image targetImage to trunc(x*1.5)
set the loc of image targetImage to imageLoc
or the image moves to a new loc.
What could cause this...on WinXP & MacOSX?
I noticed the same thing on something I'm working with right now. Images
always resize around the center location, so you'd think they would
always stay put. But I think what's happening is that if the new
dimension isn't evenly divisible by 2, the engine has to put the extra
pixel on one side or the other. If you resize by uneven amounts enough
times, the location will shift.
Don't ask me why it didn't happen in your old design. Haven't a clue.
