Flash Lite 3.1 now available to OEMs

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Alessandro posted about Flash Lite 3.1 recently … which he got from Sybmian Freak.
Not that this is surprising … as if you remember back to Flash Lite 2.0, they (Adobe), put out a point release (Flash Lite 2.1) right around the same time period last year.
Anyways, Flash Lite 3.1 now includes (among perhaps some [...]

Monday, April 21st, 2008

Forum Nokia has an article on Flash Lite tips and tricks article for S60 devices (about 4 pages long, or perhaps 40 tips).

Kuneri Lite Advert - Handdrawn N95! Simply Awesome-ness!

Monday, April 7th, 2008

This advert where “Bilgehan” (over at Kuneri Lite) utilizes his unique talent of handrawing an N95 using Microsoft Paint and a mouse … is simple awesome-ness.
IMHO, it puts the iPhone “baby music” commercial to a bit of shame (even though it’s not an N95 commercial per se …)!

Awesome job guys!
Spread the word and dig it.

Evil Panda - example of gotoAndPlay frame label tip with Flash Lite 1.1

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Faisal posted about a tip (many of us, like to use) when dealing with 1.1 content (replacing tellTargets() in favor of 1-line gotoAndPlay() statements with frame label jumps).
So:
[AS]
tellTarget( “person_mc” ) {
gotoAndPlay( “moveHead” ); //– assuming there is a frame labeled ‘moveHead’ on the timeline
}
[/AS]
… can simply be:
[AS]
gotoAndPlay( “person_mc:moveHead” [...]
