Over the weekend an old client called with a new bug in their HeroMachine version after the last Flash Player updated. We spent a couple of days figuring out what went wrong and now it’s fine, but along the way I stumbled across a workaround for the image exporting bug Google introduced in their last Chrome updated. Using this new (actually, very old) method instead, I was able to get this important feature working again. So now if, like me, you’re a Chrome user, you can once again export your HeroMachine 3 creations as a PNG or JPG. Hooray!

Awesome! Thanks for this, and all of your other great work.
This is great. Thanks Jeff!
Thank you so much
It isn’t fixed, though… I try to export an image and it just moves everything 20 points left. :s
^
same for me.
Dang it. I was still using the PepperFlash disabling workaround from earlier, which made me think it was fixed. I re-enabled that and sure enough, the new fix isn’t actually fixed. Rats.
Sorry for the false alarm. Plus, now I have to fix the uncentering problem. Feh.
At least the uncentering issues are solved here, but still no exporting. Good luck Jeff, please, don’t let us down! 😀
