Here's what I would like to see in the next version of SWiSH (If you're still taking opinions. I realize most of these have been mentioned before but I'll say them anyway):
1. At least some basic ActionScripting, eg. variables, if statements... etc
2. Being able to create your own Actions, for example: You place a Transform action and edit the settings, then you can click a button that will save it as an action with the name you specify for future use (please correct me if this is already possible)
3. I can't really think of any others, lol... But if even one of the above were in the next version that wold be cool!
Keep up the good work!!! Once you put actionscripting in SWISH Will take over flash!!!! Lol.

Hi,
As above, action scripting, the ability to read / write to a text file, sound syc and export to a projector

Yes, that is already possible in SWiSH. Simply asfter tweaking the effect to what you like, simply ive it a new name you will remember, and click the little Floppy Disk next to the place where you entered the new name. That's it! And next time you open SWiSH (and there after) it will be there

The next version of SWiSH needs, and a big emphasis on needs here, to have:
- Morph technique
- Some form of Actionscript
- Key assignment
- An 'if at frame' setting (instead of just 'if frame loaded)
- 'drag n drop' objects.
- random setting
- the option of having 'layers'
and maybe - a more 3D environment - so if do a 3D spin of 90 degrees, the object doesn't just become a line, it keeps it's shape.
Otherwise I think people are not going to bother with it, as they can just learn Flash and produce much better things.
I think you'll be fairly happy with it then.

1) The ability to "lock" an area of a object at a cerain point Make the top right corner of a square stay at one point, and the rest of square rotate around it
2) Ability to make forums
3) I know u heard it alot, but ActionScript would be VERY nice
4) Im not sure how to explain, but ill try, Be able to select a certain area of the movie, and put HTML coding into it
5) Add an On Press Effect for effects example, When u click a square, it explodes
6) Premade Scroll bars like in Flash MX
7) Pre-made password protected areas
8) Make the drawing tool alot easier!!
9) add a fill tool
10) Easier ways 2 make sites

1.) You can already do that; you simply goto the Transform panel of the shape, set the place where you would like it to rotate (like Top-left, bottom-right, etc.). Then simply use the rotate tool.
2.) Forums would be difficult if not impossible in Flash at all. They require the support of a few scripting languages such as CGI, ASP, PHP, etc.
3.) Noted I'm sure; yet most likely 'unlikely' for the next version (although we all want it)
5.) That is possible; it just takes a bit more work than you mentioned:
--Insert the rectange you wish to explode.
--Make 'shards' (insert smaller rectangles and tweak them to look like small shards inside the larger rectangle). Do this to fill the larger rectangle.
--Group all the shards as just a 'Group', and apply an explode effect to the Group.
--Add a 'Place' action the whole rectangle on the frame you want it to appear.
--When you would like it to explode, simply place a 'Remove' effect for the whole rectangle, and begin the explosion for the chards.
8.) As in......I believe it's just as easy is it is in any other program such as Photoshop, PSP, etc.
9.) If you use the Bezier, there is an option to select the different fills for it.
10.) Again: As in....If you know your way around SWiSH, and you know what you're doing, simple sites are a breeze to make.

Just bumping this and inputting another quick idea:
Whatever is included in the next release, yet Jofta put an idea into my head I never thought of:
All these people are requesting capabilities of MM Flash, yet when MM Flash costs 10x more than SWiSH.
So basically, I'm saying I'm willing to pay the extra $$ for any/all new capabilites you put in.
And one other suggestion I have not heard yet:
For buttons- How about an 'After Hit State'? That would be kool. :P
All for now.
Peace

eh?

Sorry for not being clear, I'll try to explain it more:
What I meant by an 'After Hit State' is to have the option (as in it's not required) to select a state after the user has clicked the button. So there would be: Up State, Over State, Down State, and the optional After Hit State. I don't know how really to explain it more than that, yet if you still don't understand, I'll see what I can do.
Just my 2 cents.
Peace

what do you mean select a state AFTER the button has been clicked?
Clicking the button is a state (onpress) and releasing inside the button is another state (onrelease).
-
I was talking about, if you open up a button, you see the four current states; I was talking about a 5th state to have when after the button is pressed.
Nevermind tho; I'm over it
Peace

I think I understand.
You want it to look
* One way before you click
* Another way while you press
* And a third way after you've clicked
You'll be able to do that in the next version with sprite-buttons (new special behaviour for sprites).

A Viewable Pixel Scroll
Personally-- I would like to see a pixel scroll in the index bar so you could see the dimensions of your objects as you create them. For example --If you were drawing a box,
you could see how large the area was, you were creating in Pixels. Sort of like you see in PSP7.

I'm new at Swish and have only been testing it for about a month. I'm VERY impressed.
The only thing on my wish list is font embossing and drop shadows. This is because the program is so tremendous for text based effects! (and much more...)
Thx.

Welcome to the Forum Russ
about shadows
Copy your text change the color and or transparency then order send to the back
As for embossing swish really isn't an image editor.
However
You can do some interesting things with masks and converthing the letters to shapes then applying an image or a gradient.

Bottom 3
1.you have to make a sprte to mask things
2.giving effect to the mask doesn't always work
3.freezes sometimes
What I'd like to see
Forms,
exporting to .gif,exe
full screen
Drag/drop
Preselected simple/common javascripts to choose from, ie: fullscreen, popup window, close window, status bar messages, date/time...etc.
better text tools
faster responce
better reliability
document recovery (like in word)
better font clarity
