DESCRIPTION

SWF::File module can be used to make SWF (Macromedia Flash(R)) movie. SWF::File is a subclass of SWF::BinStream::Write, so you can pack SWF::Element::Tags in it.

METHODS

SWF::File->new( $filename )

Creates a new SWF file.

$swf->Version( [$version] )

Sets and gets SWF version number. Default is 5. You should set it to default if you don't know which version the SWF tags you use are supported with. Neither SWF::File nor SWF::Element support the version control of the specific tags.

$swf->FrameRate( [$framerate] )

Sets and gets the frame rate of the movie (frames per second). Default is 12.

$swf->FrameSize( [$x1, $y1, $x2, $y2] )

Sets the bounding box size of the movie frame in TWIPs (1 TWIP = 1/20 pixel), and gets the size as SWF::Element::RECT object. Default is (0, 0, 12800, 9600).

$swf->FrameCount( [$count] )

Sets and gets the frame count of the movie. Usually you don't need to set because SWF::File object automatically count the ShowFrame tags. If you want to set the different value, you should set it just before $swf->close.

$swf->close

Saves SWF to the file and closes it.
