This is the home of Jankees van Woezik, a freelance web developer. I made pretty neat things in the past. Please check out my portfolio, and if you have a questions feel free to contact me.
LogMeister open source
There are several loggers used by Flash developers, some like logger A and others like B. I switch between loggers from time to time. I like Trazzle because it’s lightning fast and I use MonsterDebugger because is really extensive. I needed an easy way to switch between loggers. That’s why I created LogMeister. LogMeister is [...]
Logger
When building your first website in Flash you initially use the trace() function. But after a while you start to feel the need for more. There are a lot of ‘loggers’ available on the web. Personally I prefer Trazzle because it’s a very lightweight native mac application. But when working with colleagues who don’t use [...]
Land of the logging
Today I have built a wrapper around some loggers for Flash (Trazzle, Yalog, Monster Debugger and SOS Max). I am currently cleaning the code, but I will post the code as soon as possible. This is a screenshot of my current setup….
Automatic font size adjuster

Below is a short sample of a srt file. 1 00:00:20,000 [...]
Recursion for Flash
This morning in the train I worked on a little script for recursion. I need this to update a timeline animation on the fly. With this script you get an Array with every DisplayObject on the currentframe in a DisplayObjectContainer (MovieClip, Sprite etc). package test { import flash.display.DisplayObject; import flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer; /** * @author Jankees.van.Woezik [...]
Slice images with a Matrix
For my current project I needed something to slice an image easily, first I tried to slice the image with a mask, but I soon found out that this much heavier than my current solution. Below is the end result I needed to have (the triangle is a big mask). // image = a MovieClip [...]
We are building an AS3 framework
Together with my colleague Patrick Brouwer, we are building an AS3 framework that we can reuse in a lot of situations. We bought VisDoc to create a good documentation of the project. When it’s ready I’ll try to do a post on what we did, and why. I really like the preloading mechanism we came [...]
