Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 SVG embedding resources

Hi all and thanks for the input. I agree with Dave that the svg does look bloated compared to swf, and Claus and Jaco's explanations make sense for why this is. So far from what I found I agree with Jaco that there is no golden rule for predicting filesize when embedding svgs except that usually

[Flashcoders] AS3 SVG embedding resources

Hi all I am looking for some AS3/SVG resources in general. In particular I am hoping for some guidlines for predicting how many kb embedding a svg will add to a swf ? I did a quick test just now here http://www.dehash.com/?p=35 and found it to be quite varied. Hope that makes sense -gary

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 SVG embedding resources

Thanks for the additional info. Using the those four example images just threw me off then, as any one of those images done in swf would be tiny compared to the svg counterpart. Dave - Head Developer www.blurredistinction.com Adobe Community Expert http://www.adobe.com/communities/experts/

63K for that monitor? And it's vector? That's useless. A bitmap would be way smaller... Why are svg's so bloated? And why the heck would you want to use them? Most likely the authoring tool is to blame. That SVG contains loads of gradient definitions (dunno if they are all absolutely
