Graphic Assets Noise (BUG?)

Take a look at
http://www.shewflowers.com/test_mp3/songfish_mp3_player.html
... down towards the bottom is a skinned button ... as you can see
the skinning is working fine, but there is a border around it that
is not in the original file ... this happens if I use GIF or PNG
file types ... the reason for the file type decision is that there
is transparency added to the image file ... what do you guys think?
any help is greatly appreciated ... if any of you have seen this,
was there something you did to over come the issue?
Thanks again!

well i doubt its a bug, flex handle pngs extremely well.
I think its your actual file. Would i be right in assuming it
was originally on a white bg and you just "magic wanded" out the
white? thats usualy an artifact of that.
Easiest FIX: get the eraser in you gfx prog of choice and get
rid of the white.
IF that doesnt work, have a close look at the orig image.
because pngs usualy work fine if made right.

Swf asset resize bug

This is a beauty, the code always worked before but even after rewritting using gumbo replacement components the problem is still there, I have a container that has a swf and an image in it the swf being a frame for the image. When the container is resized the swf frame and image are supposed to follow it, unfortunately this doesn't happen the swf asset reports one set of co-ordinates but displays at a size different to the reported co-ordinates.
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-22521 this is the bug I have raised
http://gumbo.flashhub.net/sizetest/ a link to a test, when the component is initialised it displays correctly when you use the slider to resize it the swf in the component incorrectly resizes.
I have also attached the testbed source code (its an fxp renamed to zip)
Has anyone else had resize issues ?.
David.

[Update] it seems that if you load a swf asset at runtime or directly into an image component through in the IDE the sizing behavior works as expected. If you embed an swf or copy a loaded swf into a different resource the resizing changes from size by stage to size by draw region (i.e. the swf asset has some details outside its stage area).
Still a bug as this was never an issue with FB3.

What is the best way to manage graphic assets in Adobe?

If anyone has some insight to how they go about managing icons and other image assets that are commonly used across multiple documents, please let me know.
My thoughts thus far:
1. I would love to use symbols and symbol libraries, but this only appears to be useful if you're only working with one document. It would be great if I could update/edit a symbol in a symbol library and it would automatically update every instance of that symbol across multiple documents. This would be super efficient when making mockups etc. so I could just pull in the symbols from the library quickly.
2. I suppose I could save each individual icon as it's own .ai file and use the file > place workflow when adding instances of icons and assets and then do 'edit original' when I need to update or edit the icon/asset. The downside of this is that every icon needs its own separate file name and it's less convenient than simply dragging and dropping assets from your symbol library where you can view all your icons and assets together. I also would have to remember to go and check the Links and make sure every one is updated each time I open a document.
I also need the ability to export the vector icons and assets as .pngs at multiple resolutions for iOS and Android development. The best solution I could find for this would be to use Photoshop's Generator tool to export the individual image layers to the different dpi levels. I'm thinking I'll set up the document as a relatively large canvas size with the intention that it will house all my icon and asset files, each asset on its own layer with a layer mask for the intended asset size. Unfortunately this requires a lot of set up initially, as I will have to individually place each .ai icon/asset file into Photoshop as a smart object and then set up a layer mask on top of it. It would be nice if I could just export to all the resolutions quickly through illustrator though...
Can anyone think of a better workflow or provide further insight on how to manage commonly used assets across multiple documents, as well as being able to quickly export all of these assets to multiple resolutions?
Is there a 3rd party option I should consider for this? I just know there has to be a better way...how do big corporations like Google, Apple etc. manage their assets?
Thank you, and any insight is helpful!

Does anyone have any comments or know of any possible solutions for this?

Graphics re-draw bug in main Hyperdraw window?

Hi there,
I'm struggling to explain this one clearly, but I'll give it a go....:
When moving or copying a multiple-selection of events in Hyperdraw (e.g. copying 2 bars of pitchbend), the ghost-outlines created to show the potential new position of the events (before you let go of the mouse) get repeatedly drawn across the grid (as you move the mouse around) without the 'old' ghost-outlines clearing, thus making it very tricky to know where you're dropping the copied events to because the entire grid-line is filled with ghostlines....
Can anyone else replicate this problem? It looks like a bug from where I'm sitting....
Thanks,
Jason

Graphic Notification Centre Bug?

Hi, guys!
I write to ask you if anyone also sees the Notification Centre buttons like in the images below on OS X 10.10 Yosemite. Since I installed it, I see them like in the images below, and not like they are supposed to be according to Apple official videos. It's not a big problem, but it's weird. I only want to know if anyone else is experiencing this issue (or bug) and, if possible, how to solve it.
Thank you in advance.
P.S: Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish.

Well, the images are .png screenshots and I can actually see them in my previous post. However, I upload them here again. If they remain missing, tell me and I'll try to upload them in a different format.
Thank you for your interest, leroydouglas.

Graphic Location/OLE Bug?

Hi u2013
Iu2019m using Crystal 2008 (fully patched) and Visual Studio .Net 2003
We upgraded to Crystal 2008 as we specifically needed to dynamically load images into reports.
Iu2019ve encountered a problem that causes both the report designer and my application to crash.
We have a directory that contains over 70,000 passport size photographs uploaded from various sources. The report selects a number of these based on a URL thatu2019s constructed from within the procedure that feeds the report.
Iu2019ve tracked this problem down for one jpg image although there could be any number in the directory, as having run the report with different parameters Itu2019s hit and miss as to whether or not it works.
I can view this image in all sorts of other applications such as IE, Paint Programs, and previous versions of Crystal with no problem.
If I insert it as a picture (ole object) in crystal 2008 it interprets the pixel size as being cm which results in an image of 670 x 957 cm which is clearly wrong. Worst still if I link to this image via the graphic location and refresh the report I get crw32.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close which it promptly does.
When running from within a .Net application Iu2019ve had out of memory and division by 0 errors which Iu2019m assuming are down to the fact that the report is misinterpreting the image size.
The image thatu2019s been causing the problems can be found here if anyone wants to download and try it
http://winster.ad.nottingham.ac.uk/saturn2/photo/4050360.jpg
But as Iu2019ve mentioned this is only one out of an unknown number of over 70,000 making it impossible to track down and exclude any that may cause problems.
Any help appriciated, thanks.

Hi - after a bit more investigation I wrote a small application to scan the directories to try and identify the corrupt files although this doesn't really help me in the long term as these directories are added to as and when and the scan takes hours so it isn't really a viable option and Iu2019m still getting other errors that I canu2019t track down.
There are three 'types' of corrupt jpg's Iu2019ve tracked so far which Iu2019ve tested in the designer. Examples can be found at previous URL:
Resolution Error as mentioned previously
another example 4090552.jpg
Designer: insert picture - interprets pixels as cm i.e. 9 meters+ picture in 72k file
Graphic location - crash on refresh
Run time - division by 0 - crash
Out of Memory Error
example 4077115.jpg
doesn't display in Explorer but can right click and copy to get the file
Designer - insert picture - crash
Graphic location - crash on refresh
Run time - memory could not be read - crash
A Generic Error occurred in GDI+
example 4067352.jpg
Designer - insert picture - intermittently displays
Graphic location - doesn't display - fair enough
Run time - Division by 0 error - displays but totally wrong size
In addition after excluding all files identified above I get these at runtime when running via an asp .net application streaming the report to pdf
ASP.NET 1.1.4322.0 worker process
Division by 0
Invalid Pointer
Exception of type System.OutOfMemoryException was thrown
Error in File wr_course_list_by_school {C2665C87-3BEC-4B87-A620-309A3D37B3F2}.rpt: The request could not be submitted for background processing. (seems to work if can grow not checked)
All of these are related to the graphic location as it runs fine when the link is commented out
One for the moderators I think, pretty much makes the software unusable for what we bought it for.

New MBP early 2011 Dynamic Graphics Card Switching Bug

Fresh out of the box 2.3GHz quad core i7 MBP 15" with HiRes Screen.
A sudden white or blue "Flash" of the entire screen repeats every 1 or 2 seconds. This occurs without any foreground applications running. Also, noted sudden flash during Screen Saver... where it would appear to awaken for 1/2 a second, then back to screen saver, every 10 - 20 seconds.
Bottom line.... Disabling the Automatic Graphics Switching in the Energy Saver System Preferences fixes it. No more screen flash.
I installed gfxCardStatus app (http://codykrieger.com/gfsCardStatus). With this you can set the laptop to use either the "integrated" or "discrete" graphics cards specifically or you can set it to "Dynamic Switching".
Each card used works fine. No flash with either card. Only with the "Dynamic Switching" option does my screen "flash" repeatedly. This is most pronounced when on battery power. The gfsCardStatus shows the laptop repeatedly attempting to switch graphics cards for no reason I can see. The only "login Item" I have is "HP Scheduler".
In Activity Monitor Utility the CPU process at the time of the screen "flash" is "WindowServer".
Anyone else with new quad core i7s seeing this?
Any fix? The Automatic Graphics switching is a nice idea... too bad I can't use it.

I think I solved my problem.
I found two, seemingly unrelated, processes running in the background using the "Console". I removed all "HP" related "Login Items" from my User Account. I also deleted all old, unnecessary items from the /Library/LaunchAgents/ folder, including "com.seagate.notificationexec.plist". For some reason now, without these background processes, my computer no longer tries to frequently switch graphics cards.... I have no idea why, but it seems to work. For the last 24hrs... no blinky! See below.
The "Console App" indicated a couple background processes happening that seemed unrelated to graphics. Below is the log:

Illustrator Shape / Graphics Styles issue (bug?)

When using the 'Split into Grid' command the resulting rectangles are defined as paths not shapes so that the live corners feature is not visible in the toolbar/transform palette.
Since starting to write this I've stumbled upon the fact that while holding the Ctrl key with the object selected the live corners become visible and editable directly either via dragging the mouse or when double-clicking the mouse on the radius point where as options window appears to allow exact settings - this is great. It would be better if the toolbar/transform palette also reflected these settings to see at a glance which values have been used or even better, the resultant output of the 'Split into Grid' was defined as a rectangle in the first place.
Also, historically (CS5) I would save the rounded corner effect as a graphic style, I've noted that shapes with live corners set, do not copy those settings into the captured graphic style.
Cheers!
Rob

Learning on the fly here, I just noticed the Object > Shape menu where you can convert a shape to rectangle when then enables the live corners to be updated. Perhaps a check box could be added to the 'Split into Grid' to enable this to be done automatically?
The graphics styles issue still stands.

How to create graphic clickable email bugs in signature?

I would love to create clickable icons on the bottom of my work emails for Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.
What is the best way to go about this? Do I write the raw html code, including clickable areas and then drop it in the signature sub directory? Is there an easier way?

You can always take a screen shot of the video, add a play button (which really wouldn't be an actual play button) and link the image to your HTML page where the video is located.

Multi-colored block noise bug in Adobe Premiere - DV video

When I edit a DV video in Premiere 6.5 sometimes the final DV video output will have this strange multi-colored blocks that last a frame or two, and it will have a loud violent hiss right there. It's not in the original DV video, and it won't be in the same place if I resave it. I can't figure out what's causing it. I blured the logo in the bottom left corner, but it's fine. It will look perfect with the video screwed up behind it. Anyone have any ideas what's happening, or have you run into this before??

Anything that does that "once in awhile" and "not in the same place" is most often caused by TSR software running in the backbround
That TSR software is doing "something" to the hardware that is stealing a few clock cycles or polling the system bus... and that causes problems with Premiere
You need to check what else is running in the background, and stop it if at all possible
Also, This is aimed at Premiere Pro, but may help

Since updating to the latest version of Firefox (12) I can no longer save jpegs or other graphic files. I can save them with other browsers.

Firefox does not seem to recognize the graphic asset (the Save As File Type) pull-down bar stays blank. When I select the "All Files" type in the pull-down bar but that doesn't help. I've tried adding the .jpeg to the file name as suggested by another user, but this doesn't help.
No problems like this when I switch to Explorer.
Is this a known bug?

Proper way to scale assets for multiple devices

I am working on an ActionScript Mobile app which I intend to build for iphone 3gs, iPhone 4 and iPad 1&2.
What is the correct way to scale assets such as background images so that I may be able to use the same graphical assets for all of the mobile devices above?
Using AIR 2.7 and in my app descriptor file I have specified "cpu" for renderMode and "true" for fullScreen. From what I have read, the fullscreen bug in AIR 2.7 is only present when using gpu as the rendermode w/ fullscreen, so I don't think that is what is going on.
I have a background image which is supposed to fill up the entire screen for all devices. This image is in a swc file and has these dimensions: 960 x 640
In my main class I have included the following:
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
When I test on iPhone 4, it looks fine and fills up the entire screen as expected. When I test on iPad 1, the image is not wide enough and is a bit too short. Shouldn't the following code force the background image to fill the entire screen regardless of device?
backgroundImage.width = stage.stageWidth;
backgroundImage.height = stage.stageHeight;
Instead, it makes the backgound really small in the upper left hand corner for all devices. Can someone shed some light here? I am stumped.
Hopefully I am doing someone stupid and it is an easy fix..Thanks!

Here is what I have been doing. Do what you did by scaling the stage to the top left and fill the entire screen.
Now set up an onEnterFrame event to give your background image dimensions. Since you want one image to work for all the devices it has to be an image that works even if part of it is not showing so design with that in mind.
So lets say your image is iPad screen size 768 wide x 1024 tall. I pad is a 3/4 screen ration so 3 wide by 4 tall in proportion.
Set up a variable that measures the screen ratio, so something like
var frameRatio = stage.stageWidth / stage.stageHeight;
this will return a result of 0.75 or 3/4
Now since you know this you can set up an if else statemenet (excuse my sloppy code, do not copy paste)
if (frameRatio >= 0.75)
backgroundImage.height = stage.stageHeight;
backgroundImage.scaleX = backgroundImage.scaleY <------ this will scale the image proportionally to match the height.
else if (frameRatio < 0.75)
backgroundImage.wdith = stage.stageWidth; <------ notice if its less than .75 we now make the image first fill the stage to the stage's width
backgroundImage.scaleY = backgroundImage.scaleX <---- notice these are flipped so now we proportionally scale the height based on the width
This works well for me even with orientation changes. Its easiest to set you background image point of refrence to the center and then orient it by simply dividing the stageWidth and stageHeight by 2 for the x and the y values respectively.
Let me know if that helped at all I can post an actual line of code if need be.

Latest PS CC, generator bug when renaming layers

OS: Win7 64bit
Problem:
I can't rename layers while photshop is generating assets. I have a big web layout PSD file with hundrets of layers, 74 of them are named so PS generates them as assets. When "Generate Assets" is checked, photoshop aborts every attempt to rename any layer by itself and writes a "color change" to the protocol.
I uploaded a gif file to illustrate what is happening: https://i.imgur.com/u3vBFje.gif
On the left is my layers pallet, on the right is the protocol panel. Everytime I double click to rename a layer, the edit is aborted and the protocol shows "color change".
This bug is immensely frustrating, since the only workaround is to wait some time until photoshop has finished generating the assets. When I uncheck "Generate Assets", the bug appears as well, since photoshop deletes all the assets in the folder.
I noticed that the same bug appears when you use the "Remote connection" feature, everytime photoshop sends an update to a remotely connected device, the layer naming is aborted. Maybe these bugs are related, you guys should check for that.
Thanks and kind regards

Compiler not embedding current assets / cache cleaning

dear all,
In FlashBuilder 4.7 (beta + release), it consistently happens that linked assets aren't (re)loaded when compiling. Cleaning the project doesn't seem to help. Restarting FB, then cleaning + building mostly reloads the assets.
Is there a way to (manually?) clean all caches, the way a restart of FB does?
This question could be related to: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4809438#4809438 and http://forums.adobe.com/message/2921124#2921124
This seems reproducible:
1. Make 'assets.fla' file in Flash Professional, create one symbol with some random graphics, ActionScript Linkage Class set to 'SomeGraphicAsset', publish to 'assets.swf'
2. In Flash Builder 4.7, create new ActionScript Mobile project
3. Make new Class "SomeGraphic", link with previously created graphics in Flash:
package
          import flash.display.MovieClip;
          [Embed(source="/../embedded-assets/assets.swf", symbol="SomeGraphicAsset")]
          public class SomeGraphic extends MovieClip
                    public function SomeGraphic()
                              super();
4. In constructor of entry-point class for project add:
var somegraphic:SomeGraphic = new SomeGraphic();
this.addChild(somegraphic)
5. compile / debug project
6. open 'assets.fla' in Flash Pro. Change something to the 'SomeGraphicAsset' symbol. Publish to .swf file.
7. In Flash Builder, debug -> shows old file without updated graphics
8. In Flash Builder, clean project, debug -> shows old file without updated graphics
9. Close Flash Builder, reopen Flash Builder, clean project, debug -> mostly the updated graphics show.
Any feedback to make this more workable, or a way to fully flush all caches in FB are greatly appreciated.
It's crazy having to close / open FB every time a graphical asset changes in your project.
- this has been tested on 2 different Mac OSX 10.8.x computers, FlashBuilder 4.7 AIR SDK 3.5
- sample project can be downloaded here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/608333/AssetProblemSampleProject.zip
hoping for some feedback,

Same problem.
Just upgraded from FB4.6 on Win7 to FB4.7 (build 349722) on a new MacBookPro.
We have 20-30 .swc files that contain art which are merged into code. When I change the contents of a swc it is really difficult to get FB to refresh and pick up the changes. Building clean, hitting refresh on the project or lib directory. Restarting FB then building clean seems to help. On FB4.6 Windows, we always had to build clean, but not restart all of FB...
I followed a post about setting global swc cache off, but that did not seem to help either.

This is killing my workflow - any help would be appreciated.

Graphics scaling issues in Flash Builder 4.5.1

Please review this screen shot. Details follow the image.
FB 4.5.1
applicationDPI = "160"
Graphics using MultiDPIBitmapSource scale fairly well.
Graphics used for these properties do not scale well at all:
1) ViewMenuItem's "icon" property.
2) List itemRenderer IconItemRenderer "decorator" property.
3) TabbedViewNavigatorApplication's "splashScreenImage" property.
These graphics assets end up with horrible scaling artifacts, making them unusable. So, I cannot use icons with Menus or Lists or a splash image.
I've reviewed all of Adobe's documentation and followed all of their recommendations for creating graphics assets for use in a mobile applications. Simple graphics with no curved lines or angles less than 90 degrees scale well. Anything else does not.
Attached is a screen shot comparing the scaling issues at 160, 240 and 320 dpi with applicationDPI = "160". It is using an FXG graphic created in Illustrator CS5.5.
The FXG graphic was embedded in the s:IconItemRenderer like this: decorator = "{images.arrow_list_icon}".
For testing purposes, I also tried switching the decorator at runtime based on the applicationDPI, but of course this fails as the application still scales the graphic whenever the application's applicationDPI property is specified.
<s:List>
<s:itemRenderer>
<fx:Component>
<s:IconItemRenderer
decorator = "{chooseDecorator()}"
<fx:Script>
//This code selects a different FXG asset based on the DPI reported at runtime.
import images.arrow_list_icon160;
import images.arrow_list_icon240;
import images.arrow_list_icon320;
import mx.core.FlexGlobals;
protected function chooseDecorator():Class {
    var rtnVal:Class;
    switch (FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.runtimeDPI) {
        case mx.core.DPIClassification.DPI_160:
            rtnVal=images.arrow_list_icon160;
            break;
        case mx.core.DPIClassification.DPI_240:
            rtnVal=images.arrow_list_icon240;
            break;
        case mx.core.DPIClassification.DPI_320:
            rtnVal=images.arrow_list_icon320;
            break;
    return rtnVal;
</fx:Script>
Has anyone come up with methods which can be used to avoid scaling issues with these items when setting the applicationDPI property?

Chances are that you'll get better answers for this question on the Flex general discussion forum. This forum is visited more by engineers on the tooling team while the latter has people from the Flex SDK team.
