ActionScript 2.0 :: BitmapData Onto Irregular Shape?
Dec 10, 2007
How can I attachBitmap to an irregular shape?I load a pattern into my movie (pattern.jpg), it is a square image 500x500. I want to draw that image onto an irregular shape. If I do the following it simply shows the large square overtop of my shape. The pattern isn't actually applied to my shape.
Code:
var bitmap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(500, 500, true, 0x00000000);
myShape.attachBitmap(bitmap,1,"auto",true);
bitmap.draw(pattern);

Can anyone tell me if I can copyPixels with an irregular shape instead of just a rectangle?

In my app, a user must drag and release a rectangular mc object (rectx) over an irregular shape within another mc object (irregx). There are 13 rect/irreg pairs. Each obj shares an AS2 file that checks whether rectx is over irregx, and proceeds _only_ if the check is true. The script uses hitTest, on mouse release, to grab the number (x) of the rectx being dragged and checks whether it's over irregx. Right now, the check comes back true when rectx is _anywhere_ inside irregx's bounding box whether it's over the actual image or not.
I've noticed that, when the (unpressed) mouse rolls over any irregx, it's oblivious to irregx's rectangular bounding box. It only reacts when it reaches the edge of the irregular shape inside, toggling from arrow to hand at the image edges. Since the mouse knows where the irregx image boundary is, is there a simple way to tap the mouse's 'eyesight' to verify whether rectx is over the correct irregx shape (meaning not just within the bounding box, within the shape inside it)? This can't be that hard.

I am trying to draw a line that goes from point A to Point B. Along the way there are objects (of any shape) that force the line to go around them in order to reach point B. It cant go through them. This is like directing someone using a map. You can only draw a line between the blocks / along the streets.
I tried that using collision tests. Fine, I can now find the coordinates at that instance, but I still cant get the line to go around the object before proceeding to point B.

I'm using actionscript to place a bitmap into an empty movieclip like so:
var bitmap_mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip;
addChild( bitmap_mc );
bitmap_mc.addChild( bitmapPNG );
bitmapPNG is an irregular shaped png of a person, but when I use the movieclip as a button, the hit area is the square shape of the movieclip, not the silo. How do I make the irregular shape of the silo the hit area, and not the surrounding square of the moviclip?

I'm a novice to Flash and I've been trying unsuccessfully to display video with defined irregular dimensions (practically a quadrilateral with various edge size). Would that be possible? I see that there are only several customization options:
1. Positioning in a plane defined by (x,y) that corresponds to the position of the top left corner of the video.
2. Width and height.
If it's not possible in flash, are there any other options with programmable features like that of flash?

In my design I've got a button which is styled in a unique shape. It ties in directly with another button. The simplest way to describe the button is a regular square split into two diagonal shapes (except the hypotenuse is curved).Well, I said Button, I've actually created the button as a MovieClip.Inside the movieclip I use code resembling the following:
ActionScript Code:
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, myFunction);
function myFunction(event:MouseEvent) {

I have a filled Shape, and a BitmapData that is the same width and height as the Shape's bounding box. I need to cut the Shape from the BitmapData (basically draw the BitmapData onto the shape...) [URL]I use the rather hackish method of:
public static function cutPoly(img:BitmapData, s:Shape, bounds:Bounds):BitmapData {
var temp:BitmapData = new BitmapData(bounds.width, bounds.height, true);
Main.inst.stageQuality("low"); //hack to kill anti-aliasing

Imagine you have two BitmapData objects that you want to combine into one. One framed inside the other. CopyPixels seems the best approach no doubt, but what implimentation of it would you say is the most optimised?
1) Print the image that will be the frame, then just print the second image on top
2) Break down the dimentions of the 4 sides of the frame and the image inside then just print them to the screen
3) Get the shape of the picture and use it to somehow cookie cutter the frame image and print them both in whatever

I am trying to use the reflect class from "http://pixelfumes.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflection-class-v3-with-source .html" but I keep getting this error:
ArgumentError: Error #2015: Invalid BitmapData.
at flash.display::BitmapData()
at Reflect()
at Site_fla::GalleryPage_29/loadThumbs()
at Site_fla::GalleryPage_29/sortXML()

btw, first I used assigned thumbContainer as the mc argument (outside the loadThumbs() function) and it worked but not exactly what I wanted... because I thought it is supposed to update when the movieclip is animated but it actually didn't... when I use a scroller, only the thumbs that are first loaded to the stage get the reflection..

I've been using BitmapData.copyPixels() to draw graphics onto a canvas (Bitmap).I need to rotate the resulting graphics without the use of draw() because it's vastly slower.How can I rotate the target graphic? I'm assuming that there might be a formula or library that I can use which will first reorganize the pixels that make up a graphic based on an origin (point) and radians.I'm pretty certain that I'm not capable of creating such logic, so if there are any known libraries that do this, that would be awesome.I'd like to achieve something similar to XNA's SpriteBatch.Draw() method, which accepts rotation as its 5th argument.

how to use the bitmapData collision method. Now I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to see at what angle or coordinate of the bitmapData the collision happens? I need it in order to figure the accurate bounce angle after the collision occurs.

When I hit enter to play back my animation, it does not play at the 30 FPS at which I set it to. Instead, it ranges from about 15-20 FPS randomly going up and down throughout the whole animation. When I publish the animation as a .swf, it plays back just fine, at the normal speed. Just wondering why it's doing this, it was fine before.

I've made a mobile version of my software, with low-res images and such, and I can now fully buffer all my content (including a 360 frame animation which is buffered to memory). Problem is, that everytime I update the view, more memory is used.When I write image = new BitmapData();, does it store the previously created BitmapData's in memory? Do I have to flush the memory somehow before I draw my second picture in BitmapData?Example:
ActionScript Code:

//overwriting the first image. Do I have to somehow delete the data first, to

I have a pair of triangular movieclips that are up against each other real snug and are practically touching. As a result their bounding boxes overlap so using onPress for them causes the one on the higher depth to be clicked. How do I use onPress to mathematically determine if the cursor is within some boundaries I set?

I am trying to create irregular Mask from Bitmap (Who has Alpha) and then apply it to Sprite. Then register mouse hover on sprite. My mask should be made considering bitmap Alpha, I need irregular shape Mask. I read somewhere that I should set cacheAsBitmap = true for Mask, then it will consider Alpha, but I can`t get it to work.

What I'm trying to do is hittest two irregularly shaped objects using their alphas and not the bounding box.
The code below hittests two objects named target 1 & target 2. This is not my code, but mine looks exactly alike, except target 1 & target 2 are replaced with my MC's. the thing is, I keep getting an error.At every function line, like the "public static function complexHitTestObject I get an error that says: Expecting right paren before left-bracket. I don't know what this error is caused by, because I can't really see why Flash wants another right paren.

I have a bunch of different Movieclips from about 10 different classes moving about the stage. What would be the fastest/most efficient way to detect collisions between two of them? They can overlap each other a bit before the collision is detected, so I thought the easiest way would be to draw a couple rectangles that take up a majority of the object for each class and use hitTestObject to see if any of the invisible rectangles of one instance are colliding with the invisible rectangles of another. Is this a good method? I figured that since a bit of overlapping is okay and actually preferred, that two or three rectangles can easily take up all the room I need for each object.

attached is an .fla file that has a number of movieclips that move around at random, this part works great. but the movement is only applicable to a rectangle/uniformed area - defined in the action script on frame 1.

= x1-x; rise = y1-
