I tried the flash integration, seems to be very nice (not enought time to test it all) The object inspector is VERY good, the new debugger lets you see all the variables in a categorized way, local, global and properties The sad part is that there is NO update on the 3D engine, that in my opinion, needs 'little' rework: - Zsorting on transparent polygons needs a fix (core engine rework) - antialiasing improvement - progressive antialiasing is something that could be implemented, like viewpoint (when you stop moving, it starts to antialias) - switching antialiasing on/off can be slow sometimes, it takes a few frames before it is turned off Luiz [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

RE: lingo-l MX opinion!!
Hi everyone, Well I got my Director MX upgrade and I look forward to giving it a good test, I have only really had a chance to load it and poke around but upon first impression there are lots of little enhancements I like. Have to say though that I was really looking forward to the new interface, but upon a quick try I am a little confused and frustrated that you can only dock certain panels and others have to be by them selves, it does not really give that much more screen space than the old version. In many ways you have less since the properties panel for example has to run all the way down the right side of the screen unless you undock it, which is fine on a large desktop but on my laptop at 1024x768 it chews through deskspace. I'll be trying to make it more like the old interface layout I think (probably because I'm used to it), however I hope to have my 2nd monitor very soon and then it's back to having all the panels on a separate screen.ahh, how did I every live with just one screen.

Re: lingo-l 16 channel mixer recording and playback
The problem with not using repeat loops is that it ties me to the frame speed, which at the moment is only 15 fps. I really want the entire recording and playback to be independent from frame events. Also, I don't think Joe Schmoe will mousedown without moving the slider very often, so that's not a very big consideration. The biggest consideration is getting accurate data at intervals small enough so that on playback the movement appears smooth, without maxing out the memory processing power of the computer.

RE: lingo-l MX opinion!!
I love the re-tooled Debugger. Just being able to expand and collapse my lists is terrific. I like to orient the Debugger pane at the bottom of the Script window. That way, when the Script window switches over to debugging at the breakpoint, I don't lose my place. The script doesn't shift, and I'm right where I want to be. But, like the release notes state, the Debugger font is downright puny and nigh-on unreadable at 1600x1200. Is there any way to change the font for the Debugger?! The split-pane Message window is fantastic, too. I like seeing the results of calls I make from the Message window without having my output obliterate my input. It's just a little thing that makes a big difference. I'm quickly getting used to panel grouping, too. Being able to save those arrangements, and call them back in, is wonderful. Docking doesn't do much for me. I like to maximize my script windows as much as possible, so I leave my essential panels undocked so as to have as much client window space as possible.

First, I want to wish everyone a happy holiday, no matter what you're celebrating (just do it safely). PLEASE, as many of you are going on vacation - do NOT use an autoresponder for your mail, OR if you do, please unsubscribe from Lingo-L until you get back. Autoresponders (hi-this-is-so-and-so-I'm-on-vacation-back-in-january) create problems when they respond to list messages, because it just makes new messages, which in turn make newer messages, and so forth in a loop, until it makes for 50 meg mailboxes for everyone. Then everyone's mad, and it takes me all day to sort out the problems. Second, if you return from vacation and don't find any new Lingo-L messages daily, then you might have been temporarily disabled from the list. What happens is, if your mailbox gets full (via Lingo-L or anything), then all new messages get bounced back to the Lingo-L server. Eventually the server will determine it can't send mail to you any more and will disable you. We can't warn you about this, obviously, because we can't send mail to you in the first place. So if it's eerily quiet upon your return, and there aren't any new postings, then write us and ask (write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

I have come to *really* appreciate the power of Fireworks. It took me a while, as I used Photoshop for years and resisted using Fireworks because I was not as familiar with it. Now that I have finally got into using Fireworks (I find that I use it almost exclusively now and almost never use PS anymore), it is no longer bundled in DMX. Very disappointing. To top it off *if* I buy a Mac version and PC version of DMX (a big if, by the way) I will be saddled with two versions of The Flash Communication Server, neither of which will work on the Mac. At least with previous versions of Director bundles you got a Mac version and PC version of Fireworks, MUS and an audio editing package, which you can install on both your Mac and PC. Very handy. To say that I was very disappointed in this bundled package is putting it mildly. but I'm happy since I got Fireworks MX with my copy of Director 8.5, just my two cents on that one. You lucky bastard! When I purchased D8.5 I got Flash 4. #*%$#^* ck [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Guess the excitement over the new flash features has you spitting out Flash instead of Fireworks ;-) (Dang West coast Canucks can never get things right!!) Sincerely Mark R. Jonkman Yeah, well you east coast expatriate Canucks really get my knickers in a twist... mostly 'cause your always right! I stand corrected. I did indeed mean Fireworks 4.
