Re: FLASH: Re: Dimensions question

[Steven Lim]

Thanks for replying .


I tried it out using postscript mode , indeed it generate a series of mask

layers .

I imported one sample.ai alone and it already have 66 symbols .

I tried both raster or draft mode too . They produced a white background

layer

which didn't fit in my gradient background back in flash . and the .swf

exported

is quite a large size . What's the average size for a simple 3d .swf

(3D graphic rotation itself ) ? I believe that's a optimum way of creating

3D in flash

which I haven't tried out . Pls advise =) Thanks
