ActionScript 2.0 :: Blend Mode Overlay Not Applied After Loading A Swf?
Dec 27, 2010
I have a swf that is loaded with moviecliploader class onto a container empty mc.
The problem is, some stuff on the loaded swf contains a blend mode overlay + alpha animation. When it's loaded .... the overlay mode is just aparently ignored! >_<
I guessed it's maybe because the overlay thing is in one swf and the background is on the other, so i tried setting the overlay with with onLoadInit ... :
Code:
content.menu.background.blendMode = 'overlay';
this had no good result, my alpha animation on the mc would just not happen and i got no overlay blend at all =

I'm trying to achieve an effect similar to the Overlay blend mode between two layers in photoshop in Flash. It sounds simple enough, but BlendMode.OVERLAY produces a distinctly different result than what is seen in photoshop using the same two images. I was wondering if anyone knows a good way to mimic Photoshop's overlay.

I am using CS3, AS2.I have a background image that I am allowing the user to select multiple layers over the top of (layer 1: new pattern, Layer 2: design) and the movieclips have the Blend: Overlay applied to them. My problem is when they select a second option (or a second overlay is applied to the background) the overlay shows the layer belows pattern in the new layer.My question is, is there a way to have the the two movieclips ignore each other and only apply the Blend:Overlay to the background movieclip?

is it possible to blend an image over other images in flash? like if I wanted pictures to scroll behind a color gradient... here's what I'm working on: effect done in photoshop, but I what to achieve it in flash)See how the images blend with the colors behind? so when I click the right arrow and the images slide over, I want the overlay to effect them. like the pinkish/red image on the right needs to be greenish when it is displayed on the left side. I could perhaps do it with a gradient in flash (though I'm not sure how), but it would be better if I could use a png file for the color overlay so it matches better

I am trying to create a custom blend mode much like the blur blend in Windows Vista, where all the of the contents in the windows behind the one on top are blurred. (I hope you understand what I mean.) I would like to accomplish this using a pixel bender effect, naturally. Unfortunately I can't get any kind of blurring (or for that matter, any image distortion at all) to work when I use a pbj file as a blend mode. These kinds of effects work fine as a filter, and seem to work fine in the toolkit as well, but don't seem to work at all in flash as a blend mode. it seems that flash doesn't allow you to sample any points except the current x and y that it is working on when used as a blend.[code]

Right now I have a section of my code that looks like this.
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("two",this.getNextHighestDepth());
two.loadMovie(someURL);
var blend:Array = ["multiply", "screen", "overlay", "hardlight"];
var randblend:Number = Math.round(Math.random()*blend.length);
two.blendMode = blend[randblend];
trace(two.blendMode);
The trace works fine and shows a random blend mode, but the blend mode isn't actually applied visibly. I apply the blend mode in the same way to an image loaded from the library, and it works perfectly. I don't know why this isn't working... Is there any way to have the blend mode actually apply?
I figured out a way around this problem. I just added a movie clip inside of "two" and loaded the image into that, still applying the blend mode to two.

I am building a SWF and the goal is to load in an external SWF file and then display that within my container. They are totally unrelated items and I do not want to modify the functionality of the item I am loading in. My SWF will briefly display a watermark overlay, but then disappear. Can anyone guide me into this best way of doing this?Also, is there anyway to get the properties from the SWF I loaded in (namely height and width) so I might be able to easily adjust the size of my SWF to match?

Is there a way in AS3 to load the .swf to full screen mode straight away? The only way I can find to do it is by adding an event listener for the mouse or keyboard. Surely this can be done automatically at the start when the .swf is loaded?

I have am having a bit of trouble. I am trying to run a flash presentation in fullscreen mode that loads and unloads several external swf files when you click on different buttons around the stage. There are no problems at all if you are not in full screen mode. As long as none of the external swf files have a flv playback instance they play fine...there are 2 files that have flv movies playing in them. When the playhead gets to the keyframe playing them the screen goes to black and the entire presentation locks up even though I have
subFLV.fullScreenTakeOver = false;
in the actions for the external swf file (subFLV is the name of the flvplayback)
I have also tried
this.subFLV.fullScreenTakeOver = false;
I'm not sure how to force the flvplayback in a child instance of a movie to not take over the screen. Any ideas? Or have I talked myself into a circle again..

I wanted to make a video player that has normal mode and fullscreen mode. The part I am having trouble understanding is how to handle the video once it gets set to fullscreen. Do I just use the current video or do I get a high quality version of the video to show during fullscreen mode? What would be best practice for this situation?

I'm trying to follow along with a basic animation tutorial online using ActionScript. It mentions to switch to expert mode from normal mode, but says that to do this, I need to click on a blue arrow with a box around it(which I don't see anywhere)? Where would I click to switch to expert mode? Is expert mode needed to animate certain things(I'm working with a movie clip)?

Im building a website fully with flash and there is the typical navigation bar to get to the other parts of the site..
each part of the site has a different background photo and I would like to fade out/In each background of the site...
if it would be linear on the time line its obviously just a matter of motion tweens and alpha values.. .but how to do it if one wants to jump say from section 6 to 1 and have background 6 blend with background 1 ?
I guess there is a way to create an if statement in ActionScript ?

I'm working with duplicating a bunch of movie clips, attempting to recreate a waterfall affect. For each drop I apply a overlay filter progmatically, and I want to set the alpha to a value of ten or so. So the script I used to do this was:
quote:
this.blendMode = BlendMode.OVERLAY;
this.alpha = 10;
I don't receive any errors for this, but the alpha coloring doesn't seem to apply unless I set it to 0 (in which case all the drops disappear).

when playing with blending modes I noticed that they affect the background of an html page.To me this says that flash is interpreting the image below and adjusting the pixels in flash. If this were true it would be possible to take screen shots .I tried copying the bitmap of _root and other movieclips but it does not record the html site in behind.

Is there a way to control the blend.multiply transparency value?
code:
Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.BlendMode;
var c:Sprite = new Sprite();
[Code]....
I know its kinda nonsense controlling this value, but what I m trying to achieve is a less "transparency" over the objects, but maintaining the multiply effect.

1.Is it possible to blend music looping from a frame lets say frame 1 to frame 10 and then having it not loop but go into the other frames lets say frame 11 to 21?
2.How can i get it to just either blend or loop, i know looping is possible but i've forgotten how, i haven't used flash since 06'
3.Is it possible to put two songs on one frame without making it sound really bad or jumbled up?
4.how can i put sound effects on a button, lets say you click something or get a coin in the game how can i make it so the 'coin noise' goes on the button?

I'm a seasoned AS3 developer working on a major online project and we've run across a strange visual anomaly which is connected to the movieclip cacheAsBitmap property. When using author-time additive blends (which we use for lighting effects) in a movieclip, turning on the cacheAsBitmap property (without which performance becomes unacceptable in our very detailed art) seems to 'destroy' the additive blend. The art director says that the visual effect produced is as if the blend mode had been set to Normal, which I can confirm--some blends which are yellow turn orange, other 'spotlights' turn from transparent yellow to dark gray.

Layer 1: Linear gradient with transparency on each side.
Layer 2: Graphic symbol of an animation that runs across the entire screen.
The edges of the gradient should mask the animation on either side so it looks like it's fading in from one side while fading out on the other.Is it possible, using just the timeline, to achieve this effect? It's been awhile since I've done timeline animations but I know I've done this before I just can't, for the life of me, figure out the magic combination.I've tried changing the gradient from graphic to movieclip, I've adjusted blend mode, and bitmap caching, yet each time I run the animation the gradient is ignored completely.I read that using masks for gradients are ignored so I changing the layer back to it's original and specify the symbol as movieclip with blend alpha did nothing as well...

I'm wondering if I can lower the transparency of any skin in QuickBox2D, I have searched the documentation but I can't find it. Transparency value or filters(Multiply/Overlay). Example: If I create a movieclip, and make it overlayed and then call it through a QuickBox2D, it will become invisible. I want to blend skins with the stage background image. [URL]

I have a drawn sprite- a sine wave to be exact, which is behind a layers of dynamic masks. i need to have this wave shown in different color ranges as per the amplitude.
this wave updates dynamically based on values so am trying to use something like blend mode or transparency to set the color range instead of computing it which will make it an expensive process.
how can i color different parts of the wave based on its height/amplitude range?

I am trying to save an image from flash, just load a image into flash place some decorative clip art and then save the image to the disk. I was able to do this via BitmapData + PNGEncoder + FileReference.
Now as an experiment I have introduced new clip sprites for decoration, where in each of these have multiple sprite children with different blend modes say "ERASE", "OVERLAY", etc. As far as the flash runtime is considered I am getting the expected effect for blend modes.
But as soon as I try to save the image, the output is weird, it doesn't resembels what I see in the flash player. I also tried to print the page as pdf using PrintJob class, but the pdf would not show the filter effects or the blend modes ones.
As far as I am using the plain clip arts with no effects, no blur, no blend modes the image is generated. But when i try to use the BitmapData.draw() method with the image that has clip arts with blend mode or blur it fails.
BitmapData.draw() with blend modes, as I feel if the we could possibly see the blending effects in the player then we could possibly print it as well.

I've just joined if you haven't noticed and wanted to express my admiration for all the skills on these pages and links. Much inspiration has already been delt on my humbled mind. Visit the file in question here
1) on this dude's site, Beyond the Pixel, he/she's got the style sheet repeating a trend gif. I created one myself and have got it working on my htm file. Problem is, I want to be able to get the htm repeated image to seamlessly blend into my swf file. How did BTP do it? I assume I need to estimate the pixel distance (the repeated gif I'm using is 5x5 pixels) then absolute place the swf file using proper css placement code. Then I'd just start that same gif in flash on the movie's edge and repeat it across the movie (x and y). I think I'm right on the former, but feel that I'm being to simplistic in the latter.
2) I followed this tutorial on preloaders. Got it to work, even managed to get it to load vertically and change the size of the loadBar. Problem, and it may not be on true publishing, but when I test the movie, the preloader does its deal but right before it goes to frame 3 to display a ND picture, a little green box pops up in the upper left of the frame. It does this every time. I'm using Flash MX '04 on a G5.
