In order to better serve /f/, this scaletest.swf will assist in choosing the best ways to develop
future OC.
Use the buttons to change the Scale Modes, and resize the window to see changes in graphics.
What scale modes or window sizes are BEST for...
...Vector Graphics?
...Bitmap Graphics?
...Text Items?
What scale modes or window sizes are WORST for...
...Vector Graphics?
...Bitmap Graphics?
...Text Items?
Is there a scale mode flash authors should ALWAYS use? ...NEVER use?
All /f/ users' input and opinions are welcome.
Please note if you are a flash developer of any skill level, or if you are mostly an end-product
consumer.
Also state your primary screen resolution.
Thanks for the assistance.

anything other than noscale fucks up the bitmaps, but they end up small on screen
1440x900

Noborder and exactfit should never be used. Period.

I have had people complain when I use noscale, but if I use showall, it blows my bitmaps to shit.
I know some people have monstrous resolutions, but is the trade-off of shitty looking bitmaps vs.
small flashes in big windows worth it?

Don't use bitmaps?

Bitmaps are critical to high-speed animation. Vector movie clips are fuck slow. I have 100
objects that I want to animate, and can either have 100 movieclips at less than 8 fps... or about
5 bitmap areas with a handful of .pngs loaded into memory, and redraw them with 40-50 fps.
So speed and quality matter.
