ActionScript 2.0 :: MX - Pulling Down A Projection Screen?
Jan 29, 2010
I want to build a sort of pulled down projection screen thing using ActionScript.Basically the MC will come down with a picture on it.I have this starting code which doesn't work terribly well because it just moves the screen from top to bottom instantly.
Code:
on (release) {
do {_root.mcScreen._y+=1;
} while (_root.mcScreen._y<200);
}
Essentially I want the screen to smoothly scroll down into place over about half a second.

I'm basically trying to emulate Photoshop's Vanishing Point tool where you can define the 4 2D points and the 3D plane is calculated from that information, in terms of the rotation of the plane relative to x y and z axes.
So if you have an image like this one:
And you define the points of the four corners, maybe like this:
It would define the 3D plane that the surface must live on relative to the x y and z axes. Researching this has led me to some tutorials on drawTriangles and Homographies, but they all seem to be focused on mapping bitmap data and I can't seem to find anything that defines a 3D plane itself.

is there any lib or api out to deal with this ? EVEN, if there is any resource , article from another language c++ , c , .. i just didn't have enough time to test lot of ways
If you search interactive floors , or interactive floor projection you can find some companies who provide such a thing

i have a following problem with displaying a scaled and moved image. cliffs:
1. create movieclip
2. draw a square inside, with a starting point (top left corner) in (75000, 75000)
3. move the movie clip so that the square is visible on stage. its important that the movieclip for each iteration is the same.we reapeat this procedure, each time doubling the x/y of starting point, and its width and height. each time we also scale down the movie clip (so its two times smaller than the previos one). we position the movie clip.basic math suggest that all squares should appear one over another. this is what i get:zoomed:
Code:
container square2 x/y: (-47900,-47900)| zoom: 2| w/h: 500| 64%| x/y: (75000,75000)| stage x/y: (99.95,99.95)| stage w/h: 320
container square3 x/y: (-47900,-47900)| zoom: 3| w/h: 1000| 32%| x/y: (150000,150000)| stage x/y: (98.8,98.8)| stage w/h: 320[code]....

The following is entirely a math question. As we know, PerspectiveProjection delivers perspective transformations in 3D represented by the interdependent values of fieldOfView and focalLength according to the following formula:
focalLength = stageWidth/2 * (cos(fieldOfView/2) / sin(fieldOfView/2)
Q: How to get the visible on-screen size of the DisplayObject (Cube on the above-linked image) to which PerspectiveProjection has been applied? A more thorough description and illustrative code on the issue in ActionScript 3 lacks functionality for visible bounds of DisplayObject.

I am creating a standalone projector (CD with autorun). This means my swf files are NOT contained within html. I would like to, when clicking on button, open a popup html page with specific dimensions. I was wondering if it is possible to do that, and what AS to use,
or if I have the obligation, to openpopups, to launch my swf files within html mother page.
Here is the code of button that works (but does not open popup):
on (press) {
getURL("URL", "_blank");
}
Here is the code for popup but does not work (opens html page normally):
on (press) {
getURL("URL", "", "width=580,height=400,left=100,top=100");
}

Im currently building a little 3D particle engine in flash the uses sprites.to set the position of each sprite I am using the projectVector function below. (the viewTransform matrix is the particles world matrix concatenated with a perspective projection matrix)
var projectedPoint:Vector3D = Utils3D.projectVector(viewTransform, point);
sprite.x = projectedPoint.x;
sprite.y = projectedPoint.y;

url...The interesting part is that he didn't use perspectiveFieldOfViewLH and instead he defined his own projection matrix. I'm new to the 3d programming, so after reading this explenation of projection matrix:[code]And i got the black screen. All i did was exchanging the matrix from the tutorial with this matrix. I tried to play with it for some time, but with no results. This is the matrix from the tutorial[code]

I have a machine that shoots canon balls into three different barrels, each on a different x axis, I need to be able to shoot at an arc into the target barrel, the target barrel will be randomly determined right before the ball is fired, the barrels will be randomly placed from stage to stage
the friction and gravity applied are constant variables, how can i determine both the correct x and y veleocity to shoot the balls out so that they end up in the correct barrel. I don't want to hard code any variables

But these formulae give me strange result when z are less than zero(z<0) I need build line from A(100,100,100) to B (100,100;-100) As you can see these equations give really strange result when I try to convert B point in 2D dimension

I have a list of items in a database as well as images in a directory folder. I am looking for a flash app that can pull from the database to display the info and also the images and scroll this info vertically with associated links. I need to change this for each client by adding their unique "ID" in the code so their information pulls in correctly.

I have an HTML page called "mypage.html" with a form on it. The form contains a text field called "FName" and when submitted, it loads "mypage2.html" with a Flash file embedded within it.Using actionscript is it possible to pull the passed value "FName" to an actionscript variable. Previous threads mentioned the GetURL parameter but CS4 kicks it back saying it is no longer supported.I'm also a bit confused on whether actionscript can pull variables directly from the browser URL. I found a reference to the variables being placed in the HTML code that embeds the SWF file:<param name="movie" value="mySWFmovie.swf?myvar=heyyou" />'Why would this be the location to configure the passed parameters and not directly from the browser URL?

I created a file that pulls data from the worldofwarcraft.com serverstatus xml page.The data populates a dropdown list and you can choose the server and it tells you if its up or down. The mini app works great on my desktop, when I upload it to my server it no longer retrieves the data.
Is Bliz blocking my server address from recieving the data? Anyone know how to navigate around this. [URL]..If you want to test it grab the swf out of your cache and load it from your desktop, it will work.

I am mostly a front end developer and my code guy at work is not Flash savvy. I have been working with Flash for years, but my coding is limited. Wondering if you might have a tutorial on the following, or some knowledge:
Need to play an FLV video or swf that has que points that grab someone's name from a database and puts that in a dynamic text field and at the end of video sends out a code back that tells the server that the video has been complete. My code guy knows PHP MySQL and Javascript if that will help.

I am trying to pull a text from within xml tags and place them in a text box when certain mc's are clicked. I am using the e.target to find the name of the mc clicked and grab info from tags with the same name as the target mc. The XML link is good as i can get data when doing tests with out using mentioned technique.
ActionScript Code:

Is there a method to pull the value of the current swf file's name? For instance, if I have a movie called 1.swf open is there something I can do like myMovie.name and have the return value be 1.swf?
Problem: I have 24 flash movies. Each movie has different text that needs to be displayed, so what I did was created an HTML file with vars on it like &1=Hello &2=World. Now in my flash movies I load that HTML file, and have a dynamic text box that pulls in the values. This all works, but as it stands I have to change the var the text boxes pull in, and recompile, so instead I was wanting to set the variable to pull in based on the .swf file name, like 1.swf, pulls in the var &1 and 2.swf pulls in the var &2, this way I don't have to keep recompiling, I could just copy the movie 24 times and rename the movies accordingly.

Heres some of the code:[code]I tried putting the info into and array but obviusly its returning an error due to the fact that r.result is a object.Im just looking for a way of pulling info out of the grid and into seperate variables.

I have two scenes, one called "Script" and one called "Animation". On the Animation scene, I have one layer with thirty frames. Each frame is a progressive piece of animation, not converted to symbols or anything, just drawings.
Here's what I want to do. On the script scene, I have ActionScript pulling a random number from 1-30. For example, let's say it picks 17. I then want the drawing in Frame 17 of the Animation scene to appear in the current frame of the Script scene.
I'm beginning to understand this is more difficult than I first imagined, so here's an alternative. I could make a symbol from the drawing in each frame. Then call it Fish01, Fish02, Fish03... Fish30. Then when the random number is chosen, basically have that corresponding symbol appear. And when a new number is chosen, the symbol on the screen will disappear and be replaced by the new symbol.

I know how to create a scrolling pane that pulls in text. I test my methods by creating a text box with text, the convert to movie and make sure the Export to Actionscript is check and then on the Scrollingpane just make sure the target has the correct movie name. If I do this in a blank document everything works but in my Flash project it does not pull the text from the text box and I have no idea why. Has anyone experience this before. I just cannot find out why it works in a blank document and not in my flash project. I tried attaching my flash document but it does not fit.
