Re:Visualize It

Our Visualizer has been updated again. New features include remote background image loading, video dragging, continual color updates (so threshold and glow filtering colors are updated as you’re choosing respective colors), and improved usability. These features are also acompanied by a host of small tweaks and changes. Enjoy!

  1. Very cool tool, BSC (Big Spaceship Crew). Thanks for opening this up for the community. I saw the presentation at Flash Forward of this and was very impressed.

  2. Very nice work guys. I had some issues figuring out the dials. First I tried dragging the inner meter and then tried dragging the notch in a circular motion (must be that damn iPod I just got) until I discovered its just an up/down motion. Oh well.

    I could play with this all day. Thanks for sharing!

  3. Kevin,
    The dials suck! We are very aware. We have one of our developers working on a new one right now. Thanks for your feedback!

  4. We’ve fixed the dials! They’re much more intuitive now.

  5. Pretty interesting stuff. It’s funny, but I’ve started to see a similar trend on some of the work I produce - the need for a “trail maker” that does little changes to the current movieclip and creates effects that change over time. As “effect production” gets more and more common on Flash development, I can easily see the need for an engine like that increasing in the future.

    Okey, just a quick bug report though - text on text windows isn’t showing up for me (Windows, both MSIE and FF). The funny thing is the text *is* there, but hidden (ctrl+A, ctrl+C, then pasting on other application allows me to finally read the text). You’re probably using some uncommon font on the texfield but forgetting to embed it.

  7. Jesper,
    At this point in time, the source to the visualizer tool is publicly available. Click the “download” link under Visualizer 1.2 button in the right column of our blog. The Visualizer app is not publicly available at this point as its still in development.
