Losing Quality when pasting from FLASH to Ai or PS. Any suggestions?

ozboybrian

Instead of driving Tshirt booth Crazy. Thought I would ask you guys! : )

I really don't get Ai. I'm alot better with Flash.
I have buttons for my snow mans eyes and mouth etc... when he gets moved to photoshop. the buttons just turn into black Dots (didnt notice earlier)

I don't use Ai cause of annoying things like the eraser sucks and when I resize something the outline doesn't stay in proportion etc.. bit of a headache.

But if you can help me with the Flash transfers that'd be great!

I'm having the same problem

i think you have to click every bitmap in your project window (dont remember how its called in flash..) and turn "smoothing" on for every bitmap..

ozboybrian

Oki Dokie Moki Choki, I will give that a go!

ozboybrian

MMMM no idea where to look mate...

ozboybrian

Anyone had this issue before?

okimoki

if you want to import layers from PS:
go to import>import to stage.. then select your PSD.. then for every layer set: flatten bitmap image, compression lossless, place at original position, set stage size to same size.. then hit OK..
you will get layers just like in PS..

Then go to LIBRARY tab (mine is one the top right..) and in the library locate all the BITMAPS (they have a picture of a tree in the icon..), click every bitmap and set "allow smoothing"..

Thats it.. your quality should be good to go..

From Flash to Photoshop?

okimoki

I taught you have problems when importing layers from PS to Flash..
Cant help you there, sorry..

ozboybrian

LOL... Thanks for Trying mate.

Yeah can't get stuff from Flash to PS without losing quality. I'd use Ai, but it seems all weird to me and doesn't work out properly

I did it 4 times once and got close by jon (or maybe 5)

As long as you are responding with new information or someone else, you can bumb as long as needed. The problem is when people just post "bump" over and over.

It's common web courtesy to not bump more than 3 times.

ozboybrian

I shall remember that Rule.

Still haven't solved my issue though...
BUMP! lol

Oz is actually having a problem, he's not just bumpin a pointless thread

Dizko

First off, who cares if he bumps a thread... it's not the end of the world.

From flash to photoshop, how are you doing that? Are you exporting an image from flash and then opening it in PS?

I think it would be helpful if you explained your work flow to see where your mis-step is.

okimoki

and also post some screens of what exactly your problem is.. i didnt have any problems before when exporting frames of animation from Flash to PNG and then importing them to PS..

Well my Snow man... has Buttons for Mouth, eyes etc.

The button consists of 5 Circles. One large circle with 4 tiny circles inside it. the entire object consists of three colours. (Black, Grey and Transparent) I know it's only a small item, but when moved to PS, it fills black, like it's a dot. I know it's not much but I think it gives it that Edge for if I zoom in or something.

ozboybrian

It appears to be doing it on the FLASH file to now... but it's been fine all day on Flash... ARrr..
Must be to small for it to handle.

Okimoki do you have skype or anything? lol.
