I'm compiling an .as file using fcsh, which uses it mxmlc.

I use the following shell: 

mxmlc /Users/johannesjensen/Desktop/Doodler.as -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true

But when I get the .swf on my desktop it's dimensions are 500x375 and framerate is 24 when I told it that it needs to be 550x400 and framerate needs to be 120 using

[SWF(width="550", height="400", frameRate="120", backgroundColor="#FFFFFF")]

High framerate because it's a drawing app

Any ideas why it ignores the [SWF()] thing?

I'm using Flash Player 10.1 on a Mac OS X 10.6.4 Snow Leopard

A quick Google search reveals that the SWF Metadata tag need to be before the class definition, but after the imports. It sounds like you're putting it before the imports.

Keep in mind this is an undocumented metadata tag. I had never heard of it before now. So I can't guarantee that this information is accurate.

  • It works! Thanks a lot! Pretty weird rule though, but nonetheless, it works. :) – Johannes Jensen Aug 09 '10 at 06:34
  • Aha. Thanks. Perhaps an errata for the book I was trying to learn from (O'Reilly's ActionScript 3 Cookbook) which said it can go either before or after the imports is in order. :) – Jules Aug 10 '12 at 12:59
