Animating PNG causes them to lose transparency.

Basically in AS 3.0 I have PNG's loaded in loader classes as
children of Sprites on the stage.
The PNG's look fine, but then I have certain actions
triggering animations of the sprites (sliding from point a to point
b using some math, repeated in a Timer).
Everythign is fine initially even through the animation
process, but when the Sprite reaches its destination, all
transparency for the PNG is lost. The edges become very sharp, and
in the case of having a 50% transparency over the whole image, the
image becomes 100% alpha upon stopping its animation. Is there a
known cause, workaround or fix for this?
Thank you very much.
Jack

As a check, I tried replacing all Sprites on the stage with
MovieClips, and the same behavior happened, so that rules out
sprites as being the issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Provisioning Calendar to a user causes them to lose their local calendar

    Hi,
    Does anyone know of a workaround for the following situation?
    - After provisioning Calendar to a user who previously was using an Oracle email account through the Connector, when opening up the existing profile in Outlook (after entering the Calendar server details) their previous local Calendar, Tasks, Notes and Contacts are lost.
    - I realise that you can export them to a pst file but that has to be done manually and is not a realistic solution for us since we have a large number of users in this situation (i.e. we would require an automated fix).
    Yay or nay woud suffice :)
    Cheers,
    Damian

    Surprisingly, this morning all calendars showed up in my iPhone. Apparently there is a delay.
    But now there is another issue with the error:
    "The server responded with an error.
    Access to “event from years ago” in “the second added calendar” in account “local” is not permitted.
    The server responded:
    “403” to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation."
    [Ignore] [Try Again] [Revert to Server]
    Each event starting with the beginning of that calendar (years ago) seems to generate an error. It will take a day to click on Ignore for all those events.
    Will ask this in a new thread. For now the issue this thread is about is solved, thank you. I also updated my profile, except for my iPad. No 'edit' option next to that one. Strange.

  • Animated PNG in Photoshop?

    I know how to creat animated GIF files in PS without issue. Is there anyway to create an Animated PNG in Photoshop? (including using 3rd party plugins)

    Has support for video formats progressed to the point where you can have a small, high-quality animated element right inline on a page without a play button?  And is there (partial) transparency in any video format?
    One does see such things in Flash, and I've certainly still got to go educate myself better on what can be done with HTML5.
    As far as having animated PNGs, it's not hard to think of applications where elements appear to hover over other elements on the page, perhaps drop shadows on the background, and move smoothly.  As a primitive example, bring up this page with a PNG, resize it, and (assuming the movement animates quickly for you, as it does in IE9) note how it catches your interest because it's doing something uncommon...  We've had GPUs that can easily facilitate real-time multilayer combinational rendering for a while now.  Granted, it might not be good to have EVERYTHING moving around and jockeying for position in the Z-order all at once.  That could end up as a good ol' fashioned mess.  But imagine the above ball rolling onto the page, and the pieces animating to show the prospective buyer how the puzzle works.
    With any data on the net, it's always a given that "less is better", but data size is not the only concern.  The job is being done in the first place to create value -- if no one thought that actually putting rich, eye-catching elements on web pages was valuable then all we'd have is black text on gray backgrounds.

  • Photos go to opposite ends of the timeline when flagging, causing me to lose my place

    Hey everyone,
    I'm using 5.4 and whenever I flag a photo (as 'Pick' or 'reject') it puts them at either end of my timeline, and instantly jumps me there. This causes me to lose my place, and I'm editing about 1800 photos from a concert so you can imagine how annyoing this is.
    I've looked online for a solution, and gone through menu trees, but I can't find anything
    Thanks y'all

    Change your sort order to something else than what you have it set as.

  • How can I set the hstry to keep 3 windows? Sometimes windows pop up behind the browsr, causing them to be the last ones I close- it forgets the main one!

    Sometimes windows pop up behind the browser and I don't know about them, causing them to be the last ones I close. So Mozilla remembers them and it forgets the main window with all the tabs that I thought was being saved! The history button only remembers 3 and that's not enough in these cases.

    If you wish to retain all the tabs for next time do not close down the Windows individually. Just minimise them if you need them out of the way.
    When you close Firefox use use the Firefox menu to quit the Firefox program.
    * Use New Button {three bar icon) -> Quit Firefox {off icon)
    * also see [[Restore previous session - Configure when Firefox shows your most recent tabs and windows]]
    ** [[How do I restore my tabs from last time?]]
    You may wish to set Firefox to always start with last session.
    (That does not stop you clicking the home icon to open your home page, or set of pages, at any-time you wish)

  • How to save png from psd that preserves transparency of 85% FILL opacity & 100% Layer opacity?

    I am using PS CS3. My design has a shiny colored glass type effect with 100% layer opacity, but an 85% fill opacity so that you can see through it. I have tried everything to save as a png file that preserves the transparency but nothing works. Thanks for any help!

    Thank you both for your help and questions.
    I am using several effects including bevel and emboss, inner shadow, inner glow, satin, etc. If I lower the layer opacity then everything is affected and I want my highlights, etc. to stay crisp and still be able to see through the object as if it were colored glass.
    I did finally figure out how to get it to do what I wanted. I lowered my fill opacity to 0% and added a color overlay at 65% opacity. This got me the exact look and transparency that I wanted when I saved as a png.
    Thanks again.

  • Can I export an animated PNG (APNG - I think) from Photoshop? If so, how?

    Can I export an animated PNG (APNG - I think) from Photoshop? If so, how?

    All Web browsers do not support animated png files some like Chrome have add-ons the support animated png.   IMO  there are ways to plat videos in all browsers.  Video can contain audio as well as animations and the video and audio compression used produce smaller files sizes then animated png files I have seen for animated png files.
    Animated png files have much better color and image quality when compared to animated gif however I feel video is a better choice then animated png. CC should be able to create those video animations.
    I  have create animated png files using Photoshop to create the frames and a free program to create the animated png files from the frames. I do not know if I still have the free application installed. I feel that at this point in time animated png is dead. or the softwae is end of life.

  • ITunes causes Windows to lose contact with external hard drive

    I'm running iTunes on Windows, with my music library on a 160gb external hard drive. System has been set up this way for a couple of years with no serious problems.
    I recently received a used iPod which I successfully synched with iTunes a number of times. The last time I tried however, I got a strange error message (can't remember what) and the synching quit.
    Since that time, whenever I open iTunes, it causes Windows to 'lose' the external drive; i.e. if I check to see if Windows detects the external drive before I open iTunes, it's there. But when I open iTunes and attempt to perform any function (like play a song) I get the "Delayed Write Failed" error message, the lost track error message by the song titles, my music folder location has switched from the e:/ drive to c:/ and a check of Windows explorer shows that the e:/ drive is no longer there.
    Lots of tech friends of mine - and the tech support at Ximeta (the external drive maker) - are stumped by this problem.
    Any and all answers, suggestions would be hugely appreciated.
    PC   Windows XP  
    PC   Windows ME  

    that's an odd issue.
    by way of experiment, do you get the same sort of issue if you try opening a different sort of file (with a different application) that is stored on that hard drive? say, a Word document or something like that?

  • Will downloading itunes to a new pc and syncing my phone cause me to lose data?

    Will downloading itunes to a new pc and syncing my phone cause me to lose data?

    Hey Davidl678,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are unable to download the purchases from your purchase history, because iTunes believes the songs to be in your library. It may be necessary to delete the items from your library, then re-download from your purchase history. Before doing so, you may want to take note of which song are available for re-download:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Delete songs, playlists, or other items
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12359
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

    Thanks,
