[swfmill] Font import patch

2007-04-08 Thread Ralf Fuest 
I tried to use swfmill together with the font DejaVuSans-ExtraLight
(dejavu.sf.net), but at least 2 glyphs (p and d) are imported
incorrectly.
While I was trying to understand the code I found an interesting
function in the FreeType API Reference (FT_Outline_Decompose) that
allows to simplify the importing. All fonts I have testet seem to work
with the new code. I've also testet the MSGOTHIC glyphs that showed
similar errors some time ago and they also work fine.

I had an problem understanding the ShapeMaker code. Does the R in
lineToR, setupR,... stand for relative? This would be misleading,
because setupR is absolute and not relative. I temporarily added my own
setup function (setup2), but someone who knows this code should look
into it again.

An comparison between the new and old code is available at:
http://pep-mp.de/swfmill/import_ttf.png
The patch: http://pep-mp.de/swfmill/import_ttf.patch

I also made another unrelated little patch, that fixed a segfault while
importing an SVG file: http://pep-mp.de/swfmill/css.patch

Re: [swfmill] [ Font import patch

2007-04-10 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello Tobias,
when you don't want to wait until Daniel has time to apply the patch and
you know how to compile the source code you can do the following steps:

1. After you extracted the swfmill source code, copy the patch in the
swfmill-0.2.12.3 directory
2. Apply the patch by executing "patch -p0 < import_ttf.patch"
3. Compile as normal

Ralf

Re: [swfmill] Bitmap filter effects on buttons

2007-04-10 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello Brian,
the current swfmill version doesn't support filters and blend modes for
buttons. I've written a patch to add support for this features.
Converting your sample swf to xml and back again worked.

When you want to compile it yourself you'll need an SVN version of the
source code, to get the codegen directory.

I just tried 0.2.12.4 and it fails to compile. You have removed the
const keywords in swft_import_ttf.cpp and now gcc 4.1.2 on ubuntu 7.04
complains that there is an invalid conversion in these lines. After
adding the consts it compiled again.

Re: [swfmill] Bitmap filter effects on buttons

2007-04-11 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello,
there was an error in the parsing code for color filters, it should work
after the attached patch is applied. And your decision to send in the
file is right, because nobody can fix a bug that isn't known.

More technical stuff:
The end-condition for reading the ColorMatrix was wrong, so 21 instead
of 20 floats were read and that screwed up everything after the matrix.
I decided to add a size attribute to the list tag to make the source.xml
file look less confusing. size==19 for an list with 20 elements doesn't
look right ;). The Convolution filter also uses such a matrix and had a
similar end-condition, so i changed this attribute to an size attribute.
I couldn't check if this works because i don't have flash or an swf file
that contains this filter, but i think so.

Ralf

Re: [swfmill] xml2swf (advanced mode)

2007-04-13 Thread Ralf Fuest 
It is possible to do rotation in simple mode using the skew parameters,
as Mark said, but you need an current version of swfmill. I've attached
a example of colored rotated text in simple (test.xml). When you need a
textfield with different colors in it you can use HTML markup inside the
text attribute (test_html.xml).

I've also written a patch to add a rotation attribute to the place tag
that makes rotating objects easier. The angle is in degrees, because i
think it is easier to use. test_rotation.xml is the same as test.xml,
but it uses the rotation attribute and only works after the patch is
applied.

Re: [swfmill] unable to compile swfmill-0.2.12

2007-04-16 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello sub, 
did you download a source code package or did you use an svn version?
When you are using a source code package you normally don't need to run
autogen.sh at all, an simple ./configure should be enough.

The errors show that some of the libxml include files are missing. Do
you have the "libxml2-dev" package installed?

you said that you downloaded the source to work on svg again. I think
you should wait a couple of days to let me finish my work, i've changed

My new code doesn't have many new features yet. But it is more stable
and i hope it is easier to add new features. Most of the bugs in ticket

[swfmill] Improved SVG support

2007-05-02 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello,
I've recently worked on swfmill's SVG import feature. I attached a first
version of the patch to this email. In my tests it was pretty stable and
produced good results with many SVG files. Here is a list of some of the
new features and bugfixes:
- the transform attribute now accepts more than one transformation
- circles, ellipses, lines and rounded rects are supported
- painting styles defined in a g-node are used in its child nodes
- color names and rgb(r, g, b) colors work
- stroke caps and stroke joins (flash 8 only)
- linear and radial gradients
- strokes with gradients (flash 8 only)
- multiple svg files with the same ids should work (ticket #14)
- most of the problems in ticket #12

There are still some things that need to be fixed (like the text
support), but I hope it is an improvement. I would like to get some
feedback if it works for your SVG files.

Here are some small demo swfs:
http://pep-mp.de/swfmill/swfmill.html (I'm not an artist ;) )
http://pep-mp.de/swfmill/icons.html (some svg icons)

@Gerrit:
I also experienced a lot of flashplayer crashes during the development,
but they all happened during the development of the gradient support.
The crashes were caused by false values in a transformation matrix, the
player didn't crash after I fixed that problem.
The black fill stretching to the sides of the stage is caused by strokes
that aren't closed, so that the fill can "escape" at the left and right
side where the shape isn't closed. When you need a open shape, that is
filled, you need to close it using a invisible stroke.

When it does you need to give more information. Which swfmill version do

Re: [swfmill] building svn version

2007-05-28 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello Mark,
you don't need to copy Makefile.in from a pre-release, this can cause
problems when Makefile.am is changed. The build system requires a
ChangeLog file to work correctly, it should be added to SVN to make
compiling easier. Also running ./configure isn't necessary, because it's
run by ./autogen.sh. My SVG patch also includes a changed version of
autogen.sh that allows you to specify the configure parameters when
calling autogen.sh (e.g. ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr).

Here is an updated version of the build instructions:

$ mkdir swfmill
$ cd swfmill
$ svn co http://swfmill.org/svn/trunk
$ cd trunk
$ mv ~/Desktop/svg.patch.bz2 .
$ bunzip2 -d svg.patch.bz2
$ patch -p0 < svg.patch
$ touch ChangeLog
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
$ su
# make install

Re: [swfmill] building svn version

2007-05-28 Thread Ralf Fuest 
Hello Martin,
I don't own a mac, so I can't test if this works:

Try to change this line in autogen.sh:
aclocal -I autoconfig/m4
to this:
aclocal -I /opt/local/share/aclocal -I /usr/share/aclocal

When this doesn't work change it back to the original and search for a
file with the name "pkg.m4" on your harddisk and copy (or link) it into
the autoconfig/m4 directory inside the swfmill trunk folder.

Hello Martin,
doing a build without static linking wasn't intended as a permanent

Sorry, but I think I can't help you, because it's an mac specific

the bitmap tag has the following attributes:
- id

- import
  image file, supports jpg and png

- mask
  8bit grayscale png used as alpha channel

The mask attribute is also supported in the clip tag, so when you update

also add this information to the clip tag.

Re: [swfmill] SWFMILL error: using gradient fill, DefineShape

Hello Roxlu,
I noticed that there is a error in the handling of gradients while I was
writing my svg patch. But I didn't have time to fix it yet and I wasn't
sure if the error is inside the swf read or write code (or both).
Which type of gradient did you use? I only experienced a error while
using a stroke with a gradient and not a fill gradient.
Did you create the gradient in the original Flash IDE? If you did, it
would be good if you can send me this file, because I need a correct

gradients made with swfmill are 100% correct.

Re: [swfmill] Bounding boxes for glyphs bug?




2007-06-14

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Huub,
I changed some things in SWFShapeMaker.cpp in my SVG patch. A quick test
showed that the bottom values of 'o' and 'e' in Vera.ttf are almost
equal with the patch applied. You can try to apply the patch and check
if it works for you. Although I'm not sure if the bounding box
calculation in my version is correct, because I haven't tested if the
values it produces are accurate.

You can download the patch at:

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Kriss,
you are right, swfmill isn't normally built with MSVC. The windows
builds are compiled with MinGW.

The delete in swft_import_ttf.cpp is wrong, the string should be freed
with xmlFree. I've committed this change to the SVN, this should fix the
problem.

Another Windows user also had problems with PNGs some time ago. He found
a "solution", that solved his problem:
http://osflash.org/pipermail/swfmill_osflash.org/2007-May/001318.html .
Perhaps this also works for you. It would be nice if you can find the
cause of this crash. I wasn't able to reproduce it using the Linux
binary or the windows binary with Wine.

Re: [swfmill] Help grokking SWFML basic (newbie)




2007-06-21

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Emmet,
OpenOffice seems to produce corrupted SWF files, it forgets a byte at
the end of the file. I've updated swfmill to handle corrupted SWF files
better and produce a XML file anyway. This works with the OpenOffice
SWFs.
Your description of the XML tags seems mostly correct and I don't want
to comment that in detail now. But feel free to ask if you have any
further questions about it.
The  can be caused by a corrupted SWF file, but
shouldn't cause problems as long as the tags after the UnknownTag are
correct.

I think you should do the whole project in a different way:
- Create a SWF containing the slides using OpenOffice or pdf2swf
  This file contains each slide in a separate frame

- Create a swfmill simple XML that imports the slide SWF
  e.g. 

- You can now control the slide SWF with Actionscript.
  e.g. gotoAndStop(slideNr)

This way you don't have to mess with the basic profile.

I hope I haven't forgotten any questions in your long mail ;).

Re: [swfmill] Restoring broken bounding boxes?




2007-06-28

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello edA-qa,
there is no build-in function in swfmill to recalculate the bounding
boxes.
But this shouldn't be hard to do in an external program using the way
you described (swf2xml, correct bounds, xml2swf). The program needs to
recalculate the bounding boxes by looking at the edges inside the
DefineShape Tags. Perhaps this could also be done using XSLT.

Re: [swfmill] Restoring broken bounding boxes?

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello edA-qa,
swfmill's XML format is closely modeled on the SWF file format, so you
should look at a SWF reference (e.g.
http://sswf.sourceforge.net/SWFalexref.html )

All coordinates in flash are in twips. The ShapeSetup tag with x and y
coordinates moves the current drawing position to this coordinates
(absolute values). The x and y values in all other tags are relative to
the current drawing position. This also means that the x2 and y2 values
in a CurveTo tag are relative to the curves control point described by
the x1 and y1 values and not to the current drawing position before the
tag.

Ralf

Re: [swfmill] StaticText




2007-07-02

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Axel,
you can create static text with swfmill, just look at the swfmill page
in the osflash.org wiki (Importing Fonts). I think you'll additionally
need to add useOutlines="1" to the textfield tag, when you want to use
an imported font.

[swfmill] SVG support committed




2007-07-03

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello,
I've just committed the new SVG support to the SVN. It's a huge change
to the swfmill code and I hope I haven't broke anything, so please test
as much as you can.

There are some improvements to my older patch:
- polyline and polygon tags are supported
- spreadMethod is supported
- radial gradients with focal point
- added a "-n" parameter to swfmill wich disables libxml network access.
  This speeds up svg conversion, because libxml doesn't fetch the DTDs
over the net anymore.

Hello Mark,
the current SVN version of SWFShapeMaker.cpp is only 399 lines long and
your compile log shows that your file is at least 481 lines long, so

Re: [swfmill] Problem with haXe SWF9 library




2007-07-07

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Mark,
I've just did a bit of research myself, but I'm not a SWF9 expert.
I was able to use a SVG file in the library with some manual
manipulation of the SWF file generated by swfmill. I've removed all the
export tags of all paths, this removed all the "ReferenceError: Error
#1065: ..." errors. I think an option to do this automatically (as you
suggested) would be a good idea. I suggest a attribute to the clip tag,
wich is used to specify whether swfmill creates symbols for all paths
(the current behavior), for the groups or only one toplevel symbol. Do
you think this is a good solution?
The other error "ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property foo
on bar" can be fixed by removing the linkage identifier (name attribute)
from the toplevel sprite's PlaceObject2 tag. I'm not sure whats the best
solution for this problem. But I think this linkage identifier could be
removed completely, because you'll normally don't have to refer to this.
I didn't really understand what you wrote about the bounding boxes. The
SVG import calculates the bounding boxes to fit the paths (at least I
hope it does correctly).

yes, this makes sense now.
I'm not sure how easy it is to fix this, because the bounding box is

[swfmill] Flash9 support

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello,
I just want to write a short update about the things I worked on for the
past days.

I've added support for some flash 9 tags to swfmill. This includes the
DoABC and DoABCDefine tags and the ABC format that is used to represent
the AS3 code in swf files. 

Another feature, that might be more useful for the majority of users, is
embedding binary data into swf files in simple mode. You can access this
data using AS3 or haXe.

The syntax is similar to the clip tag:

Hello Matteo,
it is possible to do this in basic mode, but it isn't easy and you'll
need some understanding of the swf file format. When you want to see how
such a object is represented in basic mode, you can create a swf file
containing an example object and convert it to xml using swfmills
swf2xml command.
But I still don't think its necessary to do this. You can automate the
compilation of the object's json code using a actionscript compiler like
mtasc.

Re: [swfmill] haxe+swfmill




2007-08-04

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Franco,
I think you already know the basic things to take care about like
capitalization of ids.
When you define clips that contain place tags with a name attribute you
need to define them as variables inside the haXe class, otherwise the
flashplayer will show an error. You can than access this movieclips from
haXe. An example:












class Image1 extends flash.display.MovieClip {}
class Image2 extends flash.display.MovieClip {}
class Image3 extends flash.display.MovieClip {}
class Images extends flash.display.MovieClip {
var foo : Image1;
var bar : Image2;
}

function test() {
var imgs = new Images();
imgs.foo.x = 100;
imgs.bar.y = 150;
flash.Lib.current.addChild(imgs)
}

I haven't tested the code but you should get the idea, if you didn't
already knew this.

There are some more things to consider, when you use new features of the
svn version, like SVG import. The svn version also supports importing
arbitrary binary data in a swf9 file. I don't know when the book is
coming out, so I don't know if these are available in a stable release
then, but most of this is nearly ready for a release.

Re: [swfmill] Jing like application




2007-08-14

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello John,
when you insert all pngs inside a library tag you'll need to use AS or
haXe to play them. I think it might better to do this inside the swf
file using different frames for your png files. Something like this
should work:








This way the flashplayer does all the work necessary to playback your
png files. You can also load this swf file with loadMovie or the
MovieClipLoader and use the normal commands, like gotoAndPlay, to
control the playback.
I don't think it's easy to get the code, necessary to write such a swf
file, out of the swfmill source. But it shouldn't be too hard to write a
swf writer with the features you need for your project. 
There also is a library called ming, that can create swf files. I
haven't used it or looked at it, but it might work for your project.

Hello Mickael,
I found a bug in swfmill, that caused the mp3 files to become corrupted
during the import. This should be fixed in svn now.
I've also added support for mono mp3 files. Joint stereo mp3s also seem
to work.

Re: [swfmill] unable to generate swf displaying image




2007-08-24

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Tuneer,
your images aren't displayed because they aren't placed on the stage.
You need to place all objects, that should be displayed, on the stage
with a unique depth value.

Try to insert something like this after your existing place tag:



This will place all images in the upper left corner of the stage, so you
might only see the "jpegpic". To move the images on the stage you need
to add x="..." and y="..." attributes to the place tag.

Hello Eric,
the static linking of crt0.o problem is mac specific and I don't own a
(new) mac, so I can't test if this works:
There is a "manual" call to g++ in release-mac.sh wich is a workaround
to the crt0.o problem. But you'll need to adjust this line to the
current svn version and your build environment. I think the g++ call is
the same as failing call during make, so you might be able to copy this,
remove the -lcrt0.o and execute it again, instead of changing the one in
release-mac.sh.

Re: [swfmill] how to remmove blinking effect from sliding text




2007-08-30

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Tuneer,
you need to use different depth values for the two textfields. Try to
change all depths, in place tags with the id hellobox1, to 4.
I don't know if it is desired that the two textfields don't move
simultaneously but if they should move at once you'll need to put both
place tags inside one frame.
You don't need to use a separate frame for the textfield tags, just put
them inside the same frame as the first place tags.

Re: [swfmill] Unicode Support and Windows Binary

Thread

Hello Prashanth,
swfmill supports xml files containing Japanese glyphs. I've tested this
some time ago using Linux and a UTF-8 xml file. Perhaps you can send me
your xml file, that doesn't work, so I can test if there is a problem in
your file or in swfmill.
I haven't tried building swfmill in windows, but it should work using
mingw and msys. After building all the dependencies you can compile
swfmill using the normal ./configure, make, make install. When you use
the svn version of swfmill you need to run autogen.sh instead of
configure.

Re: [swfmill] building from svn




2007-09-28

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello Axel,
using 0.2.12 might be a temporary solution, but you won't be able to
build any new releases, not only the svn version. The gSWFBasics.cpp
file has grown rapidly since the 0.2.12 release and is nearly twice as
big as before, wich causes g++ to use much memory. Some vServers have a
very limited amount of memory, so you'll need to build swfmill on
another machine, as Mark suggested.

Hello Victor and Tobias,
I didn't have much time to work on the improved font support. I've
implemented the DefineFont3 and DefineFontAlignZones tags in swfml
basic, but I still need to make sure everything works right, so I didn't

swfml simple font import and if it's possible to implement the
DefineFontAlignZones properly.

@Tobias:
Can you send me some test files, that would help me fix the font import?
I need some reference files, that are created in flash and are exported
for fp8 and fp7. The files should contain glyphs of a font that is
freely available, so I can test swfmill's font import with the same font
file.

Hello Michael,
the function you described didn't exist in swfmill. But I think it is a

The syntax is equal to your proposal. The included files need to have

movie tag are include. The attributes of the movie tag in the included
files are ignored.

Re: [swfmill] Tag Fields, Types & swfmill simple tags...




2007-10-10

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Hello,
you can't mix a custom DefineFont2 tag and the swfml simple font import.
The only solution is to create a swf file, containing the font you want
and decompile it using swf2xml. Then you can copy the whole DefineFont2
tag (including the glyph shapes) and change the DefineFont2 tag
attributes.
Why do you need to change the DefineFont2 tag manually?
There is no way to automatically create the DefineFontInfo tag, but I'm
currently working on the font import, so this might change in the
future.
You can't include actionscript inside the xml file. You need to compile
it externally and import it using a clip tag.

It isn't swfmill's goal to be a library that can be included in other
applications, so I don't think it makes sense to release a dll version

Building swfmill with VS2005 isn't possible without changes to the code,
because swfmill is normally build with gcc and isn't tested with VS.
Someone on this list posted a link to his code changes for MSVC some
time ago, so you may use this to get started, when you still want to use
VS.

Re: [swfmill] Building from Source

I get the same error when I run autogen.sh, but swfmill builds anyway.
When the build still doesn't work there might be another reason.

Re: [swfmill] Accessing frames in AS3




2007-11-14

Thread
Ralf Fuest



The compression uses zlib to make the resulting SWF file smaller.
Compressed files, generated by swfmill, seem to have a different header
in the compressed part of the file, so they aren't 100% binary identical
to the original, but the uncompressed versions should normally be equal.
I haven't tested your files, but there shouldn't be any difference
between compressed and uncompressed files.

Re: [swfmill] Impossible to compile from sources

Thread

The error you mention is a warning, so just ignore it ;). When swfmill
doesn't build, there has to be an other error. What happens if you
execute make?

When you try to compile swfmill I suggest, that you use the svn version.
It isn't much harder. Just execute autogen.sh before the normal build
procedure.

I don't know when the next version of swfmill will be released.

Re: [swfmill] Impossible to compile from sources

Thread
Ralf Fuest



There are some problems regarding a new release.
Dan asked me about a release strategy some time ago on the list, but
didn't respond to my mail. So I'm not sure what he thinks about a
release.
I would like to see a release in the near future, but I don't have much
time to work on swfmill at the moment. There are some issues I'd like to
solve before the new official (0.2.13) release. But at least a new
prerelease should be done soon, because not all users, who want to test
the new features, are able to do a svn build themselves.
After the 0.2.13 release it might be a good idea to drop the prereleases
in favor of more frequent "normal" releases.
Another problem is the mac version. The build system seems to be
unflexible and does only work on one mac, that was used by dan to build
swfmill. I'm not sure if he currently has access to a mac or if there is
another problem on the mac, but at least he didn't provide a mac version
of the latest prereleases. But I hope this problem will be solved in the
near future, because I bought a mac and will use it for swfmill
development. So I will be able to build all 3 versions when my mac
arrives.

Re: [swfmill] How to use swfmill to check the duration of a swf




2007-11-28

Thread
Ralf Fuest



There is no movie tag in swfml basic. The frames attribute in the Header
tag isn't always reliable. You need to count the "ShowFrame" tags, that
are direct children of the Headers "tags" tag. But don't count all
"ShowFrame" tags, because there might be more tags than frames in the
swf.

Re: [swfmill] How to use swfmill to check the duration of a swf

Thread
Ralf Fuest



You simply divide the frame count by the framerate value in the header
to get the duration in seconds.
To get the number of frame in the main timeline of your swf file you
need to count all ShowFrame tags, wich aren't embedded in another tag
(e.g. in an DefineSprite tag).

Re: [swfmill] the list of allowable tags allowable in swfml-basic




2007-12-29

Thread
Ralf Fuest



There isn't any current documentation of swfml-basic. When you want to
use it you should look at a reference of the swf file format [1],
because swfml-basic is very closely modeled after that format.
The only place to find infos about the swfml-basic format is the
source.xml file, which you can find in the svn [2]. I think you'll get
the idea of what is described in there when you compare it with the swf
reference. 
To get test files you can simply convert swf files to swfml-basic with
the swf2xml command.

Re: [swfmill] embedding as3/flash9 swf problem




2007-12-29

Thread
Ralf Fuest



Thanks for sending me the files. Your problem was caused by a wrong
FileAttributes tag, wich was discussed in the useNetwork bug thread some
days ago. I've applied dan's patch from this thread, wich fixes this
problem.
There was an additional problem with your files, because swfmill didn't
recognize that the swf files contain as3. So I've added a new parameter
to the movie tag called as3, that needs to be set when you import as3
files.

Here is a corrected version of your test file, wich works with a svn
build:

I haven't tried that and I'm not sure if it works. Just try it ;). You
need to set the as3 parameter to one when there is any as3 in your swf.
This should be independent of as2 code in your file.
