We are currently working on a bigger project with Flash CS3 and when it comes to performance/size-issues, there are many solutions, but one very simple is to reduce file-size of bitmaps and set some properties like smoothing enabled/disabled in the library.

This works great for us, but i do not understand why there is no availability for disabling/enabling same properties for a bunch of selected bitmaps. I have written some JSFL-Code to do this and made an extension of it so it is easy to install and work with (It’s a panel inside Flash CS3 with some buttons and a textfield).

How to do

  1. Download the extension.
  2. Select the bitmaps you want to edit (STRG + LMB, or LMB + Drag Over Bitmaps)
  3. Press one of the 4 Buttons (enter quality first for JPEG compressed bitmaps)

I hope you like it.

    Genial!
    Dachte schon ich sei zu dumm, dass ich so eine Option nicht finde. Aber war ich wohl nicht.
    Das spart echt massig Zeit – sauber!
