example?
http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/examples/swf8/swf8-iconlist.rswf
WOW 8)

work please?
http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/example/mx-webcam
Oldes, how can I keep images external from the generated flash, for 
example this one http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/gui/GUI_Arrows.rswf
? thx!

if you want use different image, just change the path. Now it uses 
this image http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/gui/img/arrows.png

because I use core which has no image support, I'd like to not embed 
the images, but have them loaded at tuntime, who would I do this?
who = How

As I said I can make image loader which don't use view functions
Do you want to use this arrow or different?
Will

That would be grat!

the compiler cou use precompiled image data which are here read/binary 
http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/gui/img/arrows.png.36

this arrow is fine, but I would need an example how to change examples 
where there are images that get embedded to keep them outise and 
load at runtime
Oldes

ah.. you need change image from swf itself
If you want to change it from SWF itself, just use loadMovie

as an exampe, in GUI_Arrows.swf there is this line:
bitmaps images [alpha %gui/img/arrows.png]
with what can I replace it?
Oldes
18-Nov-2007
[367x2]
this places the image during compilation
why do you want to change it in runtime?
Will

so I can run examples with embedded images, but if you are going 
to make it run in core that would be great and I'll have no need 
for that
Oldes

I think that it's better to have the images embedded. Whu do you 
want to stress server to provide so many reqyest like to get image 
which has 123 bytes?

It's impressively fast!! 8)
I was only trying to fins a solution to run examples with /core 8)
Oldes

I can make a core version probably. Not today.

The image loading code part is suitable for rebcode imho... I'm using 
rebolversion with rebcode to create pixel fonts.
Will

Hopefully we get a R3 with rebcode not too far in the near future 
;-)
Your dialect is something that could drive lots of flash guys to 
look more in Rebol !

Look... I'm not making a factory standard like an Adobe... I'm not 
factory..

Yea, I've opened many time the flash IDE but it never lasted more 
then 5 minutes..

if you are like terry.. you sould use flex. You have to know actionscript 
anyway, if you want to use my dialect. The function's names has to 
be same
Will
18-Nov-2007
[383x2]
what you mean like Terry?
I have big hopes in R3, and not really looking into Flex, I'm rebol 
afficionado! althought some points Tarry made are true, like in php 
you can find about everything ready, but doing it in rebol is more 
about learning
Oldes

Terry was arguing here, that he can make guis with flex in a few 
minutes:)
But it's all about learning... at least for me
I like to learn myself
I don't want just to take something I don't understand how it works

I have this idea that the second more installed browser plugin is 
quicktime, it once had wired actions, etc, but then apple went ipod 
adn moveis.. There was a company totallyhip.com wich did LiveStage 
to build wired movies, they are now about dead, quicktime still has 
a whole lot od codecs and I dream that RT will work with apple , 
embed rebol in quicktime plugin or as a codec so that we can program 
stuff in rebol with aac and mpeg4... 8)
Oldes

And wouldn't it be better to have quicktime and flash embedded in 
Rebol?
Will

[391x3]
and with simple version upgrade, million of people get rebol power 
ready to use in a way that will make them Huuu..WOAA
yes that would be better, but that idea is just because it would 
be easier to have it installed on millions computers.. having people 
install rebol web plugin will take time to spread
quicktime is already everywhere , it only lacks a real scripting 
language, where rebol would fit very very well !

I don't need millions people to use something what I do... and to 
be honest.. I don't prefere quicktime.. but I would like to look 
how the format differs from avi one day
Will

I was speaking more about spreading rebol not really relate to your 
dialect, AVI is just a codec, quicktime support about 200 codecs, 
even flash (but version 4 only, and they disabled it as default with 
latest upgrade for security reasons..many quictime content broke..) 
and it as support for wired scripting, only that is hasnt evolved 
int the last 5 years.. too bad

I did some compilers speed optimizations = http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/rswf_latest.r
and here is a simple site I did with this version of Rebol/Flash 
dialect http://dwg.cz/atelier/
the swf file has 60kB (including all text data and 2 fonts) Images 
are loaded as external files.
