Scientific imaging with AS3 maptech-lib

Just a quick note: received a request to use Maptech on microscopic images. Threw together an adapted client. The original demo is no longer available. Please see the enhanced demo. A server-side script scans for directories holding zoomify images, sorts them lexically and adds then to the client in sort order. Zoomify’s ImageProperties.xml is extended [...]


File caching made (not so) simple

I wanted my Digital Signage solution to be less vulnerable to network losses (and save some bandwidth). As the client exists as a flex-version for browser preview and a AIR runtime version on the Panels, i had to come up with a solution providing a minimalistic interface with minimal code changes needed. So a event-based [...]


Digital Signage on AIR

I develop the Digital Signage frontend for my partners at infomax. They normally do complete projects from planning (electric wiring, network …), hardware (ruggedized LCD panel-pc’s in all sizes from 15″ to 60″) to software and integration. But they also wanted to open up a new line of software-only solutions. So i used an AIR [...]


AIR 1.0 available, G/O/grafx 0.910 too!

As of today, Adobe has made available the 1.0 build of their AIR runtime. I felt urged to publish something too. Especially as i had promised to show what i was working on in the last months spare time and what most of this blog’s entries were all about. Here it is: G/O/grafx So what [...]


Using RSL’s to cache framework libraries

I’ve just switched from “merged into code” to “runtime shared” for framework.swc, datavisualisation.swc and rpc.swc. This brings the mere application code size from 518KB down to a very good 188KB. Only one issue popped up: You need to move up framework.swc under <Project>/Properties/Flex Build Path/Library Path/Flex 3 to be above datavisualisation.swc to properly resolve runtime [...]
