Re: [Flashcoders] MX transitions: Website that shows examples?
Jason, as this is your second direct rebuff of the Fuse Kit, it seems you may have other reasons for not promoting it. Is it out of the scope of this list to wonder why? 30k? I understand the problem if you're engineering web based apps, not including overextended RAI's which are much different. it seems one Man's performance is another's, well - performance. 30k is large but not so unreasonable for smooth animation which brings web environments closer to real life, aka video, aka motion graphics, aka sales.

But not really big projects, or projects that already have a lot of overhead in the CPU already. I have found the performance of Fuse to be less than satisfactory in stressful situations. This is my personal experience only. Open up a .swf that uses Fuse with a .swf decompiler and you'll see how much extra code you're adding to your projects. Using the Fuse classes, (unless you selectively import only the ones you need - if you are savy enough to figure that out), will add 30k to your Flash file and almost 4,000 lines of code.

Oh, sorry! I did not mean to talk out of term. Only wanted to know if there was another reason for your dismissal.

He asked the question, So, out of all the above mentioned classes/scripts, what is best? - he then summarized what he had learned about the Fuse kit from the thread, and I felt he was missing an important thing I had said about the Fuse kit's size and performance. Why do you have a problem with me answering his question? This list is here to help people. If you think I have said something technically incorrect, then fine, tell me, correct me - please. But don't harp on me for trying to help someone by answering their question.

Re: [Flashcoders] MX transitions: Website that shows examples?
Jason I can see that you I may stand at opposite sides of the Flash developer( user) experience. I really was only wondering if you utilized other classes/methods for animation, nothing more or less. I'm also fearful of lists that disregard comments from active developers. On Dec 15, 2006, at 11:43 PM, Merrill, Jason wrote: Oh, sorry! I did not mean to talk out of term. Only wanted to know if there was another reason for your dismissal. Uh, no - just what I said. What in the world could you possibly be talking about? Like I am making my own competing classes or something 30k is large but not so unreasonable for smooth animation which brings web environments closer to real life, aka video, aka motion graphics, aka sales. What does the Fuse kit does to animation that is smoother and closer to real life than what you can already do with the Adobe-supplied tween, easing, and transition classes? I'm curious. Perhaps there is something, I dunno. I NEVER said the Fuse kit was all bad, it's pretty cool - mostly. There are just some things to be wary of when using it, that's all. Sure, I've become disenchanted with it, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be a good choice for other kinds of projects.
