  Release Notes for Transform SWF for Java, Version 2.2.
----------------------------------------------------------

The release adds new classes to make it easier to construct movies and get 
information about flash file. New methods are added to JPEG images to get 
width and height.


Bug Fixes
    FSColorTransform method isUnityTransform is now correctly spelled.
    Trailing null byte is now removed from password string in FSProtect.

Class Changes
    JPEG Images have width and height.
    FSShapeConstructor - polygon() now handles absolute coordinates.
    FSFrame - a new class for organising the time-line within movies.
    FSLayer - a new class for organising the animation of objects within movies.
    FSHeader - a new class for just getting information about a flash file.
    
Documentation Changes
    FSPlaceObject2 - corrected documentation on setting the morph ratio.

  Bug Fixes  
-------------

1. FSColorTransform method isUnityTransform is now correctly spelled.

In previous releases the 't' was missing from 'Unity' i.e. isUniyTransform. This 
is now corrected to isUnityTransform.

2. Trailing null byte is now removed from password string in FSProtect.

If the password string in FSProtect contained a trailing null byte marking the
end of the string then it was included in the string when it was decoded using 
the UTF-8 character set. The null byte is no longer included.

  Class Changes  
-----------------

1. JPEG Images have width and height.

Accessor methods to get the width and height of a JPEG encoded image are 
added to the FSDefineJPEGImage, FSDefineJPEGImage2 and FSDefineJPEGImage3
classes.

    public int getWidth();
    public int getHeight();

No set methods are added, the width and height are decoded from the image data 
whenver the object is decoded or the setImage() method is used.

2. FSShapeConstructor - polygon() now handles absolute coordinates.

The coordinates passed to the polygon(int[]) method on FSShapeConstructor are 
now absolute. A new method rpolygon(int[]) was added to allow polygons to be 
drawn using relative coordinates.

3. FSFrame - a new class for organising the time-line within movies.

FSFrame is an upgraded version of the Frame class currently available on the 
Useful Code page. 

Grouping together all the objects associated with a frame simplifies greatly the 
task of creation and editing a movie. However supported numbered frames becomes
really useful when combined with the new FSLayer class.

4. FSLayer - a new class for organising the animation of objects within movies.

Currently all the objects must be created and positioned for successive frames.
This makes creating of complex animations with Transform next to impossible 
without careful coding.

With the FSLayer class, separate time-lines can be created for each object. With
each frame numbered using the FSFrame class all the layers can easily be aligned 
and flattened to create the final animation. 

5. FSHeader - a new class for just getting information about a flash file.

FSHeader decodes the header block of a flash file that contains the following 
information about a movie:

    signature, indicates whether a file was compressed "CWS" or not "FWS".
	version, the version of Flash used.
	length, the length of the movie in bytes when uncompressed.
 	minX, the x-coordinate of the top left corner of the screen.
 	maxX, the x-coordinate of the bottom right corner of the screen.
 	minY, the y-coordinate of the top left corner of the screen.
 	maxY, the y-coordinate of the bottom right corner of the screen.
 	frameRate, the rate at which the movie is played, in frames per second.
 	frameCount, the number of frames in the movie.
 	
FSHeader only the header information is decoded, the rest of the data structures 
are ignored so the class can be used to get the attributes of a movie without
paying the penalty of using FSMovie where all the data structures are decoded.

-------------------------
  Documentation Changes  
-------------------------

1. FSPlaceObject2 - corrected documentation on setting the morph ratio.

The javadoc comments on methods that set the morph ratio for an object specified
the range as 0..65535, this is the actual number encoded in the Flash file 
however Transform uses a floating point value in the range 0..1 which is more 
intuitive to use - the value in converted when the object is encoded or decoded.
The documentation was updated to refer to the floating point range.
