I have a problem with arranging some thumbs in column when I resize the stage. The problem is that it is arranging the last square in line half outside the stage and you can see only a half.
ActionScript Code:
stop();
Stage.align = "tl";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

I have a Flex 4, mx:DataGrid with the following (pertinent) properties set:
width="100%"horizontalScrollPolicy="off"
I have the minWidth set on all of the DataGridColumns and the width set on one of them. If I simply maximize/minimize the display (in browser or stand-alone flash player) of the application, the columns scale up and down nicely. But if you grab the edge of the application and drag it to make it bigger, only one column grows really big. When you drag the size down again, the one column remains big, but all of the other columns get squished way down.
I want to know column index of header in AdvancedDataGrid when a user clicks on header - either left click or right click.
View 1 RepliesIn Flex, using AdvancedDataGrid, I'm trying to achieve a drag and drop of one row's column data to another row's column or the same row but different column. Is this even possible? I've been googling for hours and all I can find are drag and drop whole columns just to rearrange their view order.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to do a transition that you've probably seen many times. Transitioning one image to another using a grid of squares where each square fades at a slightly different time.I've made a complex movie clip made up of several other movie clips with all the squares fading at the rate I'm looking at. When I just play the color squares it works fine, but the minute I turn that master movie clip into a mask for the image I loose the transition/fade completely--just an on off thing.
View 3 RepliesI have a math issue that I have some problems solving.
screen1
screen2
I need to calulate the pixels inside the squares and put them inside an array:
The main square rotates(see screen2) and i have the angle.
Something like attached code.
I have the following values:
- x/y of the main square. ( reference point )
- Width/height of the main square
- Width/height of all the squares
- Angle of main square..
How do you go about drawing only the outline of squares using drawTriangle. Currently I am using lineStyle to draw my lines but obviously that outlines each triangle. I know i can just draw Squares out using drawRect with no fill but that seems like a waste.
View 6 RepliesNow I could do with some hints as to how this should be done Hopefully someone will help me out here.
Ok, basically I have a map (a jpg/gif file), which should be divided into squares (like a chessboard). Each square has a coordinate (X, Y) and other pictures should be shown on top of a map square - like a small house or something (also a jpg/gif file).
It should also be possible to hide some (most) of the squares from view - like with a black square on top or whatever. Perhaps Flash should also make some lines between each square to divide them.
Furthermore only a part of the map should be shown through a window (using a mask, I guess) as the map could be large and buttons at the edge could be used to scroll the map.
I would like to link the red squares to the blue square in 3D with CS4 only (please no papervision or sandy...)I'm very closed to the solution but I still have a wrong z (visible when you move the mouse to a corner for instance)

I learned about the date class yasterday and made a lil app that will tell me when the next recess at school will be. It worked great when I ran it at home, but now when I try to run it at school all the letters in the textfields displays as squares, the numbers still work tho. The only difference I can think of is that at home i use CS5 and at school is use CS4, the font is embedded in the fla.
View 4 RepliesI would like to know if flash can allow the user to arrange elements (in a published swf) on the stage and "lock" their positions so that if the swf is reopened or reset, it will retain the new arrangement. How would you describe this feature?
View 1 RepliesI want to know if there is a faster way to take several bitmaps and arrange them one after another in a single layer in a movie clip.
This is how I am doing it currently.
Stage 1: Import the bitmaps to the stage
Stage 2: Distribute the bitmaps to layers
Stage 3: Make the first bitmap a movie clip symbol and cut the other bitmaps' frames
Stage 4: Go into the symbol, create a new layer, and paste the frames.
Stage 5: Click and drag the other frames into one layer, one after the other.
I now have a single movie clip with all my bitmaps ordered one after the other in the timeline.

I'm doing a tutorial from Adobe Flash CS4 classroom in a book. They're suggesting the following: "create buttons that allow users to switch between painting ellipses and painting squares". I've created the class files for the cirlcle and the square and I've set two hot keys to switch between painting circles and rectangles(it does not work) Now I'm trying to create the buttons.

If an image is 800 by 600, copy the image's bitmap data and divide the image into, say, 20 by 20 squares, each having a reference to be manipulated later. Im guessing you have to use bitmapdata for that, unfortunately I dont know how to copy bitmapdata from an image's arbitrary x and y coordinates and for a certain width/height.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to fill a grid with different size squares, randomly, and have no overlap. I want my grid to be 100px by 100px. I've tried creating a matrix array (10x10), holding x and y values. My square size is either 10x10, or 20x20. I loop through the matrix randomly picking a square (x,y position) and placing one of the two squares. All of this works fine, but obviously the squares start to overlap.
This is the type of outcome I'm looking for: I tried adding each square to an array, then checking if the current square placed collides (hitTestObject) with an already placed square. This eventually hits true every time, because the square placed matches the same square when placed in the array. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this? Place each square but do not have overlap?
I put together this code that builds a container that contains boxes(squares) in an ordered way. Problem is when I rotate the container, the boxes don't stay in their order. (something to do with swapping depths I think) . In fact, they look a bit confusing. Just create a movieClip 24 x 24 and Name it Box. Create another movieClip and name this one Container. Save them in your library. Then just copy this code and compile. You know the routine.

View 13 RepliesHow you draw squares for example in AS (if at all possible) and using shape tweens in AS (again if possible).
View 3 RepliesI am wondering what that effect is called or how to achieve it where let's say I have 6 squares, 3 on top, 3 on the bottom(2x3 matrix) and where if I click one, it gets bigger, and all the other ones get smaller. The problem here is the how they get bigger. If I click the middle square in the top row, it should stay in it's position and grow where as If If I click the bottom right one, it should grow towards the far left side. I'm guessing the registration point needs to be changed dynamically?
View 3 RepliesI'm actually coding this in Java (with which I have just a few days experience), but as far as the logic goes, I thought this would still be an appropriate place. I'm making a Tetris-eque game and having trouble with rotation. Each shape (rectangle, L, "step", etc) consists of 4 or 5 smaller squares (image below), and I want to be able to rotate the pattern of squares 0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees around a designated point.
x = originX + cos(angle) * radius;
y = originY + sin(angle) * radius;
I thought I understood these, but apparently not, since I can't seem to get it working� For each shape, I would declare the x, y coordinates for each of its smaller squares, relative to one another. Then, I'd send these values to a function that should take the pattern and rotate it according to the specified angle. In Java (to the best of my knowledge), the upper-left is always the "registration point" for graphics. So, I set the relative coordinates for the squares of each shape such that the left side of the leftmost square is at x = 0 and the top side of the uppermost square is at y = 0. Here's an example, the shape of a plus sign (+).
Code:
//top-center
x = squareWidth;
y = 0;
[code]....
no rotation (just the shapes)and this is what happens when I implement the rotation adjustment.
I want to create a bunch of squares appear in a grid-like fashion but not row by row. I'd like more of a diagonal effect.
Here's the code I have so far:

So this sort of works in the sense of it creates a vertical row and a horizontal row. But I need it to actually kind of 'wipe' diagonally across the page.
in Minesweeper, if you click on a square that has no mines surrounding it, the game will continually find all of those types of squares and the surrounding numbered squares.
I've had some trouble with this, because I either run into infinite recurrence or...well just a bunch of stuff.I've had a lot of different ideas and ways to do this...but I'm thinking:
1. If the square your clicked on is empty (no surrounding mines) put it into an array.
2. Loop: if the array isn't empty, reveal all surrounding squares, put all unnumbered squares into the array, remove squares previously used.
Code:
function getAmountOfMines(square:Object):Void {
var numMines:Number = 0;
nSquare = _root.gameBoard["Square" + (square.getDepth() - gameWidth)];
