Hi Everyone,

I have images in photoshop that are exactly 700 X 298 pixels. However, when I
copy and paste them into Flash, Flash actually changes the dimmensions to 700.1
X 297.6.

I don't understand. I have all my Flash compression set to 100% and best, 32
Bit, etc. Do you know why this happening?

Thanks Smile

copy and paste is never the best option between programs - try File > Import. What's the dpi?

In addition to Chris's suggestion, open the library and drag drop from the
library to stage. Sometimes files of different resolutions will appear smaller
if directly imported to stage for the first time.

Thanks for the help guys. I figured out that copy/paste was a lossy proposition
and that if I wanted to use images in Flash, and not lose quality, I needed to
use .pngs, which also allow me to use transparent images. So, I'm saving out my
images as png files and then importing them into Flash's library.

Thanks for the help! Smile

John
