Image distortion when not in frame 1

I have a fla produced with Flash MX 2004 Pro. It has a movie
clip sitting on the main time line in frame 1. Nothing else. The
movie clip contains a sequence of images flowing one into the
other. With the movie clip in frame one everyting is fine. If I put
the movie in frame 2, the images are slightly distorted an "wobble"
during their tweening. I also have a static image of text which if
not placed in frame 1 becomes distorted and hard to read.
This is driving me mad.
Any help would be brilliant !!!!!
Cheers
/Dominic

you can do it in script in your movie (say in the first
frame)
_quality= "best";
or you can do it via the quality object/embed tag setting
(do both to be doubly sure

Why Does Image Distort When I move the Bones?

http://postimage.org/image/jjcef8ebt/
Hi, I just watched a tutorial where they apply bnes to deform a "bitmap" image. Their image didn't distort like my image. Why is this happening.
I imported an image then I "selected "break apart" and then I added bones to it. When I move the bones it makes the image distort, but in this tutorial here the image doesn't distort. What is wrong?

The tutorial you watched is very simplistic. He doesn't use the bones in a realistic way and skips over the fact that his image isn't actually distorting the way he implies it will.
When you break apart a bitmap on the Stage, you end up with a shape that has its fill set as the bitmap (which is still in the library). When you bend and distort this shape with bones, the effect on the bitmap fill is unpredictable. Note that in the tutorial you cited, the author does not show the bitmap actually distorting in any useful way.
The better way to do this is to select the bitmap instance on stage and then choose Modify > Bitmap > Trace Bitmap. This converts the bitmap instance to a vector drawing. The problem here is that you end up with mulitple shapes of different colors if you have a multi-color image like your dinosour tail. You can add bones to the main green part of the tail, but the yellow parts will not be associated with those bones and so will not move with them. If you are animating the tail in the timeline, you can animate the main part of the tail via the bones and then animate the other parts to compliment that movement by moving those other parts to different layers and animating with normal motion tweens.

Using Pages - Images disappear when not on the 'paper' part of display

using pages for a poster design - need to 'park' some images not on the page itself but to the side - when moved off the 'paper' disappear - just left with the 'outline indicators' - how can I keep the image visible whilst not on the 'page' I'm setting out?

Rod,
To simulate that behavior in Pages, open a blank Page Layout document and arrange the new document window to the side of your working document. To "park" a graphic, select and Command-X in the working document and Command-V in the "parking lot" documemt.

Image Distortion When Printing

Had an ad supplied for a book that was printed digitally. Entire book printed fine except for page with this ad. I got an image drop shadow, but it was way out of position and distorted. Printed claimed it was a bad PDF. All's I did was place a customer-supplied PDF on the page in InDesign, then exported entire book to print-ready PDF. It was fine throughout all proof stages, but when book delivered, I got the strange image distortion. ???
Thanks.

Hi peterpica,
You might try printing this image with a different printer and then check.
What version of Acrobat are you using?
There might be some problem of low resolution from the printer.
So, please check and let me know.

Gallery image disappears when not hovering

I am adding a thumbnail scroller to my image gallery. Here's
the site I am cutting from:
http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menu/scroll_gallery.html#nogo
I want the enlarged image to STAY when I click on the
thumbnail until I click on another one. Now it stays only as long
as I am hovering. I throw myself on your mercy.

I've had a similar "disappearing" image problem when trying to apply the retouch tool. I don't have the "create version when applying adjustments" preference checked though. Hopefully these issues are additional 3.0 bugs that will get fixed in 3.0.1. Be sure to report the issue to Apple using the "Aperture > Provide Aperture Feedback" menu item.

Why are images distorted when burning a slide show to iDVD from iPhoto?

I have created a slide show in iPhoto and wanted to burn a DVD. Some of the images are scans from old family pictures.
The images present in the proper aspect ratio within iPhoto, but when I burn the CD in iDVD, some of the images are either compressed in from the sides or widened unacceptably. Anyone know why the images are being distorted?

I gave the iphoto slide show a show and although I couldn't access the options in the idvd dialog box, I liked the end results better. I included 225 pics, and the random transition's option from iphoto enhances the outcome. The random transition option is not available in idvd.

Jpg image distorted when retrieved

I am using the photo album demo for IIS/ASP. I can upload my photo fine; however, when I attempt the retrieve it the image looks like a bunch of striped primary colors. Both the thumbnail and the full size image look this way. It is nothing like the .jpg image I loaded. I can retrieve the image properties fine and do receive any errors. Here are the image properties.
image width =808
image height =698
image size = 88677
image file type =JFIF
image type = 24BITRGB
image compression =JPEG
image mime type =image/jpeg
Any ideas as to why the image would be so distorted? Thanks!!

I apologize for the bad sentence structure above. I meant to say "I can load and retrieve the image properties fine and do NOT receive any errors".

Images distorting when saving as pdf

Hi
I am having a problem when exportng a file as a pdf. A jpg image that I am using distorts. This is a high res file and I have tried exporting with both the 'high quality print' and 'press quality' presets.
I have tried printing directly from illustrator and the image looks great, when I print from the pdf the image looks disorted.
I have attached an image to show what I mean, the image on the left is from the pdf.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks
John

To fix the bump here, I would open the image in photoshop, and add a little more canvas to the right side. If you have more time, I would recreate this as a vector object, as this does not look too good in Illustrator.

Image Distortion when viewing PDF on screen

I work for a company that puts together presentations for clients. In the past we've always used PowerPoint, but are looking into pdfs as a cleaner, more elegant end product.
While experimenting with this process, I've noticed that images I use on my pages look distorted on screen. Images with transparency often have black lines between transparent and opaque parts of the image. Also, outlines do not have consistent thicknesses. These problems only seem to occur when viewing the pdf on screen. Everything looks perfect in the authoring program (InDesign) as well as printed, but our finished product is intended for on-screen viewing so that's where it needs to look its best.
I'm using Illustrator CS4 to create most of the illustrations and graphics, then placing them into a multipage InDesign CS4 document and export that as a pdf. Then I finish things up in Acrobat 9. I've tried saving the graphics in every format I can think of (that allows for transparency) and have not yet found one that reliably looks good in full-screen mode as a pdf.
I'm curious if anyone else has run into this problem or might be able to help me. Thanks!

We're having the same problem with legal documents that contain underlining. The underlining looks fine in the source document and the printed PDF. But, when the PDF is viewed online, some of the underlining looks much thicker than it's supposed to be. If the document is viewed at 175% zoom, it looks fine, but anything less than that displays the distorted underlining.
Our internal client is not happy about this, so we're looking for answers, too.

Image distortion when Windows at 125% Display

Hi,
Due to a large monitor size, it's essential for me to have Windows set at 125% in order for text/etc. to be viewed comfortably. However, it appears this is distorting images that I place in Outlook (2010). They look fine when I insert them, but
on the recipient end in non-Outlook clients (e.g., Gmail), the images are quite large and somewhat blurry. I've ensured that the images are 96 dpi, but the issue persists. How can I fix this?
Thanks,
Tyler

Hi Tyler,
Have you tried to send the same message from webmail?
We may also try to reset the Windows to 100% display to test the issue again. As far as I know, when we set the Windows to 100% display, the DPI value is 96. When we set the Windows at 125% display, the DPI setting should be changed to 120. Please try change
the image to 120 dpi and test again.

How can I avoid image 'distortion' when saving jpegs from Photoshop?

I've created a logo with a transparent background and saved as an eps in Illustrator CS3. To create a jpeg I then opened opened the eps in Photoshop CS3, set the resolution at 300ppi and then saved the image as a jpeg. The image views ok on screen but when it is inserted into a word document and then printed, the background of the image is 'blurry' - it has small red dots through and you can see also the 'edges' of the image. Not sure what I'm doing wrong! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all the ideas. Had to have a jpeg at the 'clients' request so I couldn't use the .psd and .png options.
I came across some info stating MS Word doesn't support CMYK jpeg which I did not realise. So to solve the issue, I ended up opening the eps file as a Smart Object in RGB colour mode at the required resolution in Photoshop CS3 and then saving as jpeg. The jpeg then printed perfectly after being inputted into a Word document - no blurriness or resolution issues. I just had to advise the 'client' about the colour issues with RGB vs CMYK and not to use the jpegs for any professional printing.
Thanks again.

Image distortion when exporting

Hi all,
I'm experiencing off and on problems when exporting RAW images from LR 3.3 to JPG. (on MacBook Pro Snow leopard 10.6.6)
I am using Camera Raw 6.3.
Original RAW images taken with Canon 550D.
This is what happens:
Original Result
It doesn't matter if I resize or not, change quality of the JPG, sharpen or not, whatever.
11 out of 140 images go wrong, the others are exported ok. Not every 11th image either.
Exporting 1 by 1 no difference.
What's wrong here? Has anybody had this before?
Maybe connected: I have taken a lot of pictures of an ice hockey game some time ago. During import I've seen that some of the images imported had a similar problem. During importing I first saw a normal image, but it was changed to something simular at the end. I thought that was the memory card, as I was shooting multiple shots, low light, high iso.
Thanks in advance
gr. Paul

In addition: I just switched in LR from "library" to "develop" and the image on screen switched from the before and after image in the original post!
I have edited this picture before in LR, have cut the paiting out of it's environment, no other corrections. Probably I edited this one with an earlier version of LR.
Changed to original image, only the crop boundaries disappear, same crazy image...
And now in the library too, of course.
Is it possible that when you copy pictures from one drive to another that RAW files get damaged?
As in copy from camera to diskdrive (import LR) or from internal drive to external drive (as I did from Finder)?

Weird image distortion when opened in CS5.

Whenever I open an image in CS5, no matter what file format it is, if it's not zoomed into a whole number % then I get lines/distortion/pixelization similar to this:
I remember encountering this problem before, but it went away after I disabled something (can't remember what I disabled!) and now that I updated my computer, the issue is back.
Thanks!

Chances are good you need a new video driver from the site of the manufacturer of your video card.
You may be able to work around the problem for now by choosing Edit - Preferences - Performance and disabling the [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing setting.

Images distorted when editing in iphoto .... software or hardware?

I posted in an iphoto 5 forum post about this and wanted to check here to see if anyone has any ideas about it, as well.
here's that discussion:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1502109&tstart=0
I am getting these purplish lines/blotches in my images when I move the editing sliders in iphoto 5.
This is what the images look like before I edit (notice the faint geometric patterns throughout the entire image)
and this is what happens after
as is covered in the other thread I have rebuilt the library, repaired permissions, deleted preferences, tried creating a new account, and reinstalled iphoto 5 to no avail.
Here's the wildcard .... I recently had a logic board failure and it was replaced. This is actually the 3rd new board, the first two that they installed were defective(!) Could it be the logic board or video board causing this to happen? It only happens in iphoto and only when the edit sliders are moved.
Do you think that doing an archive and erase could fix this?
Does an archive and erase delete preferences/passwords/settings and the like?
Thanks in advance
Henry

To follow up, yesterday I phoned Apple Care and arranged to take my imac to the repair center.
That done, here is my issue, this will be logic board number 4 since mid March. Initially, I took the unit in and a board was ordered. That board was determined bad before I got the machine back and another board was ordered. That board was determined to be faulty, as well. A third board was installed and I got my imac back. Within a few days I noticed intermittent video patterning and random freezeups as described in this topic. I followed all of the suggestions that were given and determined another bad logic board.
This morning I called Customer Relations as has been suggested in many of the threads that I have researched here. The representative was very thorough and cordial, as well as understanding. He ultimately decided that since the machine worked well for 2+ years and only started malfunctioning 2 months ago, that I should take it in to Apple Service one more time for another logic board. It sort of made sense to me, but I was hoping that he would offer a replacement since this is logic board number 4 being replaced. (albeit in a short period of time) He did say that if this one went bad that they would probably relpace the machine (this was not overly reassuring to me)
Are my expectations too high or am I being unreasonable? Should I have been more insistent? Is his decision final, or can I call back and ask for an "appeal"?
Do I actually even have cause to ask for a replacement machine?
Thanks for putting up with my frustration.
Henry
