What does this mean for papervision 3d? I know a lot of the tools that team has built will soon become redundant but what of their work can they keep? Texture mapping perhaps, camera movement (I don’t think adobe’s version of 3d accounts for a camera in space)
Also, with Adobe’s tools, can you create a cube in 3d (say by rotating and aligning 6 sides) and then rotate that cube as a whole in 3d space?
I’m disgusted by myfoxstl.com
It isn’t their fault though. Here is 30 minutes of thinking applied to a site that seems to have had 10 minutes of thinking behind it.
Run this SWF and click the button, the text stays pink.
Then run this and click on the text, then click the button.
The text defaults size and color. Why??????textFormatBug
var titleTF:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleTF.color = 0xFF00FF;
titleTF.size = 22;
//titleTF.font = avantBold.fontName;
var titleText:TextField = createTF(10, 10, 200, 26, true, titleTF, “This is a test”);
addChild(titleText);
function createTF(_x:Number, _y:Number, _width:Number, _height:Number, _autoSize:Boolean, _defaultTF:TextFormat, _text:String):TextField {
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
tf.x = _x;
tf.y = _y;
tf.width = _width;
tf.height = _height;
tf.autoSize = (_autoSize) ? TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT : TextFieldAutoSize.NONE;
tf.wordWrap = true;
tf.multiline = true;
tf.defaultTextFormat = _defaultTF;
tf.htmlText = _text;
//tf.setTextFormat(_defaultTF);
return tf;
}
clicker.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, swapText);
function swapText(e:*):void{
titleText.htmlText = “This is now a changed test” + String(Math.random());;
}
I’ve put my freelance lifestyle on hold for a while since I’ve had a full time job but I am now looking for freelance projects I can do in the off hours (6pm – 8am and weekends)
If you’re looking for a Flash developer, UI designer or general web genius™ please feel free to contact me at julian(at this domain).
I’m located in St. Louis, MO if that makes any difference but I’m available worldwide. that may actually be a benefit to a company located in the UK since the time difference would allow me to be at available during their daytime office hours.
