  • JSFL: JPEG Compression Settings

    This extension will allow you to select bitmaps in the library, and when you run this command, you can change their JPEG compression values to a single value. Useful for those of you who import JPEG’s into your Flash movie from AfterEffects, or other video programs, set your Flash movie to a global compression value, and only set certain groups of bitmaps to higher JPEG values. Although allow smoothing is there, for some reason Flash doesn’t update the value; must be a bug.

    *** Update: Fixed bug, will now set allow smoothing to selected value, v 1.0.1.

  • Fireworks: Draw Guide Grid Command

    It’s 1:15 am, do you know where your cow is?

    So, I wanted to draw a bunch of guides and slice guides, right? But, I was lazy, so I learned how to use the Fireworks JavaScript API (again). It’s cooler than Flash MX 2004’s, it has a waiting dialogue box that you can even cancel!

    Anyway, yeah, this’ll draw a grid using guides based on the width and height you pass in. If you like graph paper, and don’t feel like going to View > Grid > Edit Grid…, this command is for you!

    …careful, my router may block your website, it’s dangeours like that.
