User blog:Penguin-Pal/Quickly scaling up SWF Icons

Hi everyone,

Here's another one of these blogs that i post once a while if there's something that i think will be found useful.

To begine with, what this is is a quick way for both preventing the top and left parts of CP icons to be "cut off" by the screen, and it also scales up everything in the file.

It works kinda like CPItems, but as it isn't based on browser screenshots, it allows you to keep transparent and edges part as they actually are, and


 * What you need


 * SWiX
 * Kurst SWF Renderer 1.0


 * The steps


 * 1) Download the SWF file that you want.
 * 2) Open SWiX, and load your file.
 * 3) SWiX would convert the file to an XML version. Copy that XML version and paste it here under the "Input" section (wouldn't work if JavaScript is disabled).
 * 4) Press "go", and copy the output.
 * 5) Paste your output in SWiX, then save.
 * 6) Now you can use Kurst to export a large and full image of the item. You can crop the image afterwards.


 * Special thanks

I'd like to thank Kallie- without him i would have probably not found out about SWiX and wouldn't have made this script.

Have a happy editing!
