ActionScript 1/2 :: Random Card Draws
Dec 26, 2010
There's something I'm trying to make but I just can't seem to figure it out. I want to make something that allows a person to build a deck of cards from multiple sets of cards. I also want a button that can be clicked to randomly choose a card from the created deck. For example: lets say there are four sets of thirteen cards (hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs). The user can select which of the four sets will be included in the deck. Once the sets are chosen the user can click a button and one card will be chosen from the selected sets. What is the best way to handle something like this? Is there a tutorial that explains how to do something like this?

I'm trying to add a second card deck to this matching game, but can't wrap my head around how to set up a second random feature to call one of three arrays.
My problem is that I want to call 6 cards each time I start a new game, but for the sake of not boring people with the imagery, I want to have it so that the card types vary each time they start a new game, meaning flash calls one of three decks. What I've come up with so far is below.. and I included the as file...
var colordeck:Array = new Array(1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6);
var colordeck2:Array = new Array(7,7,8,8,10,10,11,11,12,12,13,13);
var colordeck2:Array = new Array(14,14,15,15,16,16,17,17,18,18,19,19);

printing directly to a Photo ID Card printer in a web browser?I have a web application that manages user data, photo, and so forth. I'd like to add a Print ID Card feature to it. The web application is a single page javascript application that talks to a RESTful web service via JSON. I'd like to display what the printed card will look like on both the front and back for approval before the user clicks the print button.
Generate front and back JPG or PNG images to print on the server, send them to the client for display and approval, and then somehow send the images to the printer.Use javascript with SVG or Canvas to display the card to print in the UI for approval, then somehow send the SVG/canvas data to the printer.Generate a PDF and print the PDF to the printer.Use Flash to display and print Use a Java applet to display and print Something else?

I'm having an issue with Flash CS4. I'm not sure what I toggled, but when I draw a line or shape it automatically converts it into a symbol. How do I disable this? It's very annoying to have to break apart each line as I draw it.

The effect I would like to create is as follows: I have an image movieclip named "myImage_mc", and I want to create a spray paint effect, where the user "paints" whatever myImage_mc is using the lineTo and lineStyle commands. I have the lineTo stuff all done, the problem i have is trying to make whatever the user draws a mask that shows the image.Here's my code so far:
Code:
this.onLoad = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("empty_mc", this);

I want to write a program that draws a Pythagoras tree. The only programming language I know is C but I tried it in that language and it was horrible. Someone recommended Flash (AS3) to me so I am trying it in that now, but I only started learning it yesterday. Anyway, I got to the point where I can draw the leftturning branch of the Pythagoras tree, but I don't know how to draw the other branches. The number of "houseshapes" a square with a rectangular triangle on top increases with every step according to the formula 1 x 2^(n-1) (First step is n=1). I created a function that draw this houseshape, called drawHouse() and it takes as its arguments the co-ordinate of the lower left corner of the square part of the house, the length of the side of the square part of the house and the current rotation angle. Rotation angles are always multiples of 45 for now, but I might try to expand it to other values later, but for now I hardcoded a lot of stuff that assumes the 'roof' of the house is a rectangular triangle.

The orange square is the currently selected selected sprite. The sprites are all draws from coordinates that i receive from XML. var sprObject:Sprite = new Sprite();
[Code]...
What I want to do is the following. If I'm currently on the orange square and I use my keyboard direction buttons (up/down/left/right). I want to deselect the current sprite and select the next sprite in the appropriate direction. The problem I'm having is that I cannot get the x and y coordinates of the drawn sprites. If I look in the array, the x and y coordinates of the sprites are all 0. If I can retrieve that I can write an algorithm to determine the next sprite to select.

I am working with a flex project with a main mxml file and two actionscript classes that draw graphics. From reading tons of articles and posts I discovered that they must extend UIComponent, which they do. The first actionscript class draws the image fine. The first class then makes the call to create a new object. The second object does not display. In the pure actionscript version I had to pass the stage as a reference for the second class to draw.
I also found a similar question here at stackoverflow:UIComponent extended class isn't showing UIComponent extended class. But I was not sure how to apply it to my example.Which, if any UIComponent methods should be overrided for the second object to display? How specifically should I implement them in this example?
// First class "Ball" draws a circle successfully then creates a second object "MyRect"
package dr {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.display.Sprite;

I'm intermediate in AS2, and I'm starting work on custom classes. I am making a class called VolcanicIsland and I want it to make a movieclip on the stage when it is called. I do NOT want to make a variable MC that gets put into the arguments when it is called, however. Here is the external AS file (trimmed to the problem area):

I have a Dot class, which draws a dot with a color of 0x00FF00. When I click on the dot, I would like it to change to a random color from an array of colors I have pre-specified.How can I replace the current color with the new color? Do I have to re-draw the circle (dot)? or can I just replace the color?

i created my own Button which simply extends from Sprite.Its able to show 3 different text fading in and out using a timer.In my draw function i first draw a rectangle with the Sprites graphics object representing the background of the button.I added a function to set the button width. This property is used to draw the rectangle. I know that the sprites's size is updated after the rectangle drawing. But for some reason the sprite's width is always more than what i have set via my "setButtonWidth" function.Now i have a simple sprite acting as a button having a graphics.drawRectangle part drawing a simple rect. with lets say 500px width. But when i trace the width of that button it is always about 10% more. Where are these 10% coming from?I read about calling validateNow(). But this is only for Labels, or Checkboxes. For some reason i cannot access the library for Label. This must work somehow with TextFields. But how?
// this function is part of MyButtonClass.as file
function drawButton()

how I can create a movie that draws a shape on screen.
I understand how to draw a line, etc but can not work out how to see the shape build. I do not want something likes Kirupas' drawing demo as I do not want the viewer to create the shape.
For example I want to see the lines being drawn and control the speed, rather than the shape simply appearing in the movie.
I realise I need to change the lineTo value
An example is the way the TV is drawn in [URL] although I am not sure if this uses actionscript or is something else.

I have a MovieClip that has 2 images inside it:
1) An image from the FLA's library.
2) An image that is loaded dynamically from a server (read from XML file).
When I try to draw the MC into the BitmapData, I get a blank image.
Code:
ActionScript Code:
var destImg:BitmapData = new BitmapData(_root.picW,_root.picH,false);
destImg.draw( mcPicture );

I am drawing a flash sprite on a BitmapData using its draw() method. This sprite has some nested objects with 0 alpha, yet the draw() method draws them on the bitmap data.
I think it has to do with the color transform I am using, but I have no idea how to change it to achieve the effect I want.
The color transform is the following:
Code:
new ColorTransform(1, 1, 1, 1, 255, 255, 255, 255);
I am using these values in order for the Bitmap to have white pixels wherever the object was, and black where there is nothing. The draw() also draws my alpha = 0 objects in white as well.

I'm trying to simulate the coriolis effect and have managed to create a drawing application that lets the user draw on a rotating movie clip. However, I would like to now create an animation that automatically draws a line onto the movie clip which ends up being curved, but I can't figure out how to convert the x, y coordinates of the pixels on the stage to the corresponding x, y values of the movie clip. Here's what I have so far:

I'm trying to make a basic card game where I can flip the cards and also drag them around. Here's the code for card.as, the file that's controlling my cards.
package{ import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class Card extends MovieClip { private var _type:*;
public function Card() { this.buttonMode = true;
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
} private function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void { this.play();
} public function setType(type:*):void { _type = type;
loader_mc.addChild(_type); }}}
I've been trying to add draggability to the card, but I'm not sure how to do it. Do I need a separate ".as" file to control it? Or, do I build it right into this file? If so, how would I do that? I tried making a separate ".as" file but then my basic card flipping code doesn't work.

In my AS2 Flash game, I play a number of sound files and wait for the "onSoundComplete" message/function before proceeding.The problem is if there is no sound card in the system (or it is disabled in device manager) - everything acts like it is working (no errors, onLoad handler gets "true") - but the sound never actually gets played, and as such, my event never gets triggered.I had planned on dealing with this by hooking into my sound code, and if I detect no sound card, just kick off a timer to wait a few seconds before manually firing the "onSoundComplete" function.The only problem is that I can't reliably find a way to determine if there is a sound card in the system! AS3 seems to handle this quite nicely by passing back a NULL soundchannel - unfortunately I am stuck in AS2.0
