Problem: Symbol filters in final SWF not showing properky

Hi,

 

So I am currently animating a short animation - there is a problem with SWF exporting it.

 

In this image in the workspace, I have the glow effect set as X: 255 and Y: 0. However, it is not appearing as it should be in the SWF export. The same is said for all the other filters in the animation when looking at the final SWF - the filters are way too big or small for what i've set them to. Some of them don't even appear at all.

 

How to fix this? I restarted the application and even went back and deleted and readded all the filters. Plz tell me a solution anyone.

    Thank you, don't see anything wrong with your settings. The reason I asked was to see if there was a difference between stage and output resolution. The appearence of filters changes if you upscale or downscale the resolution, you can even see this on the timeline if you change the stage size so in order to preserve appearence, both of these should match.

     

    If you could share your .fla file with a google drive link we could take a closer look and hopefully see what the problem is.


    i just changed the resolution of the doc to a different one and changed it back - the problem is resolved now. Thanks for your help.

    For stage resolution go to the properties panel (doc tab) > Document Settings: 

    For export resolution check Render Size and Format presets in the export video/media dialog: 

     

    Please send a screenshot for both.
