Choppy movie clips and scenes
Posted by fredward23 at 11/28/2006 10:41:44 PM
I am having a problem in which I have movie clips containing tweens in a file
containing two scenes. On publishing, the movie clips in Scene A play fine, but
the clips within Scene B are very choppy -- they appear to be playing only the

.swf and .ppt
Posted by Zvesda at 11/28/2006 7:43:38 PM
Simple question - can I use Flash to build a power point loader? As in, of
course, to allow you to view a power point presentation on a website, or would
it be advisable to rebuild the entire .ppt in flash instead?

I have a (roughly) 4-minute Flash 8 file that I am trying to export to AVI. I

as if it is complete - no error message. When I retrieve the AVI file it is
only 25% of the animation. I've exported other files before... more >>

Re: flash 8 stalls when trying to resize document size
Posted by JK Hudson at 11/28/2006 2:47:07 PM
I found a solution, at least for Macs. In my case, I had too many fonts open
for Flash to work at anything approaching a normal speed. Font corruption can
also be a problem. I reduced my fonts to below 500 and now Flash 8 works
normally for me.
