Managing Flash Files
Adobe Flash (.swf) files are popular animation graphics which can be used for playback on RGB fixtures. The
AR-32 software is capable of controlling up to 170 pixels (each pixel using 3 DMX channels for Red, Green,
Blue intensity (Figure
7). Pixel count is set using the drop menu labeled RGB Point. If the overall brightness of
a Flash file appears dark in the preview window, use the Low Cut checkbox (on by default).
Figure 7
The pixels may be arranged in any orientation. This permits the production of simple animated graphic effects.
For example, a 13x13 pixel square (169 pixels total) can be used to display a spinning color wheel. To
accomplish this, the “stage” area in Flash must be set to 13x13 pixels (Figure
8).
