Flash Professional 8 Super Cool example appreciation and analysis

Flash 8 The official release of the news, once launched, has attracted countless flasher vision. The new version of Flash 8 does have a good performance, not only provides a powerful design of new features, in terms of code, there are many new features waiting for everyone to go to one by one mining. Flash 8 will give us a brand new visual impact, give designers more personal experience, its performance is more powerful, but also more professional.

Some foreign blog sites have been logged out of the latest Flash 8 instances, the following we will be together to enjoy flash enthusiasts use the new version of Flash 8 production of the latest super cool example.

Before you can appreciate these instances, you must first download and install Flash Player 8, otherwise some effects will not be visible.

　　One, the dazzling digital garden

This example utilizes some filters (named Colormatrixfilter and Dropshadowfilter) and bitmap compatibility for Flash Player 8, starting with 6 petals and 3 stamens randomly generating many flowers and placing them in the garden. The use of bitmap buffer technology, for each petal, stamens and flowers are individually produced shadow effect, but also used some other material. The most interesting thing is that you can keep the animation running, keep placing new flowers, and it will not slow down or increase memory or CPU consumption, because only one flower is processed at a time, and then it is immediately reversed to the bitmap.

　　 two, "Alpha Mask" and mixed mode comprehensive application example

Many flash designers have long wanted to be able to use the alpha mask in Flash, and now the new Flash 8 is finally adding to this feature. In Flash 7, the mask has only two states: visible/invisible, and now the mask can finally adjust the transparency.

In essence, Flash 8 does not contain an actual alpha mask, but it does have a mixed mode called alpha to simulate this effect. The user can place a movie clip containing the "Alpha" blending mode in another movie clip that contains "Layer" blending mode. The parent clip is synthesized using the alpha of the child clip, which results in a visual effect that is the same as alpha (although it is not really an alpha mask). There is also a blending mode called "Erase", which is essentially the opposite of Alpha mode, producing more opaque areas on the child clips than the parent clip.

The example above is made with this new feature. It uses several pictures and uses alpha blending mode to achieve a fading effect between pictures.

　　three, the surging waves

Didn't see any effect? Now use your left mouse button to click on the black area above to try it. This example may be more suitable for individual names, but it is not yet thought to be better. In any case, the effect is also very good. It leverages custom bitmap caching techniques to allow for larger drawing space, and also allows for more complex image effects. The interesting thing about this example is that it uses vector graphics, which use timeline animations to draw basic graphics, but you don't see real vector graphs. The vector diagram is drawn primarily in a hidden clip and then turned into a bitmap, with an applied effect, so that it is not rendered directly on the screen.

　　Four, the beautiful hundred day chrysanthemum

First look at Flash 8 before the advent of the old version of Flash to draw the hundred-day chrysanthemum effect. Clicking on the screen will result in other randomly generated images.

Take a look at the hundred-day chrysanthemum, which is drawn using Flash 8, which requires Flash Player 8 support. Clicking on the screen will result in other randomly generated images.

The second one uses the Dropshadowfilter filter in Flash 8, so the hundred-day chrysanthemum presents a very different look.

　　V. Real-time rendering of terrain effects

This is a random terrain effect produced using the Perlinnoise function in Flash 8. The source file for this example is downloaded .
