Adobe Flex

Posted by German Rumm in flash

Started to learn Adobe Flex. Enjoying it very much.

Installed Adobe Flex Builder Linux Alpha on top of Eclipse 3.4 – mxml editor doesn’t work. Gives me “Could not open the editor: Assertion failed” error.

It seems that current version of Flex Builder Linux requires Eclipse 3.3 (which is available for download here)

Downloading Eclipse 3.3 right now, hope everything will work.

swfIR flicker fix

Posted by German Rumm in flash, javascript

A while ago I wrote about swfIR and the “flicker” bug it has. Several people came to that post through Google looking for a fix, so I decided to write one.

What’s the problem

When page loads, images disappear for a fraction of second before replacement. That’s kinda annoying. Go and check an example on swfIR web-site to see what I mean.

How the fixed version looks like
