SWF - no image layer?

Postality · Post by **Postality** » Sat Oct 23, 2004 2:49 am

I've made a sample voice sync animation and it doesn't seem to export the image layers.

I'm using image from Pamela just to get and idea on how everything works.

I think I'm going to quite using flash cause the swf support and flashes limited ability is really becoming a pain in the butt.

Time to start using avi OR mov.

What do you guys think is the better format? I personally like avi (DivX)

But what do you guys think works the best?

Are you trying to warp the image? If so, it can't be exported that way - Flash can't do image warping. Mooh can only export images to SWF if you don't warp them or move them around in 3D.

DivX is nice, but only for final output - if you plan to do any editing, it's too lossy. The other problem (which may not be a problem, depending on your audience) is that not everyone has the DivX codec installed.

I'm not warping them, I'm using them as a switch layer though.

I have the interpolation setting OFF cause I thought that was the cause but it's still not working out.

not sure what the problem is... Does moho not like gif files, PNG format works fine.

Ah, GIF - that's the problem. When exporting to SWF, you can only use JPEG or PNG. Take a look in the manual, under the Reference section, for the Flash Tips page - it'll tell you what can and can't be exported to Flash.

Ah, not a problem. It's simple enough to convert.

Thanx.
