ActionScript 2.0 :: Putting A Bitmap Into A MC At A Certain Coordinate?
Jul 27, 2009
I'm trying to make a 2d birds eye map for my user to move around it, and the map moves around instead of the user MC because I always want the user to be in the middle.
Problem is I load the map into an instance of a blank movie clip on the stage from a jpeg on the server, but I want to be able to put items on the map that the user can interact with at certain coordinates, after the map has been loaded, from some gifs I imported into the library as bitmaps.
I can't seem to find a function that will let me load the bitmaps into the MC that already has the map in it though, is it possible to do it that way? If not then any recommendations?

I have made a little drawing program for my daughter, and I have worked in the ability to save and load images that you have made. It's a simple line drawing thing, but she's 3, and it works.Whatand I'm still new with Flash and AS3) is that I can "addChild" to put the jpeg on the stage, but it's on (or over top of) the drawing area. That means that when I start to draw, I don't really add to the picture, instead, it's drawing behind it. I used the line drawing tutorial as the basis for this little app, the basic code is :
Code:
public function DrawMain(){
graphics.lineStyle(theLine,0x000000); //default to black lines

I'm cutting my teeth in actionscript 3 on a game that has a character running through a world. So, I have set up my Hit Testing by using the bitmap data hit test method, since I figured my world is going to be destructible - it'd be nice to update the level and then redraw it and have the character interact with the new change. (That works beautifully) I am however; a bit confused as to how I have my hit Testing set up. I've been messing around with it, and it works for now - but I'm not sure why.. currently, I have a character set up by using a class I built and using a series of animations I created. So, this character has a walking and falling animation, etc. This is a movie clip.
Then there's a bitmap 'emptyBitmap' with bitmap data created - however; I never really added this as a child to the character. This is sized to the dimensions of my character. My level is created as a movielip, then it's drawn to a bitmap - when the level movieclip is changed, the bitmap redraws, and that's how this updates.

I know the topic of "duplicating" movieclips is a hot issue with the new virtual machine. Luckily, I understand the implications. I only am [currently] interested in duplicating a Bitmap. See, I load an image from an URL using 'flash.display.Loader.load', which is a non-blocking operation in Flash Player.However,I may use multiple copies of the loaded image (which is reported to be a Bitmap, naturally) in the display list at the same time.Hence, I naturally do not want to load the image from an URL every time, because I don't want to wait for a non-blocking call to complete. Nor do I need to - I mean one copy is already loaded, so it should be possible to just "duplicate" it, right?
My idea is to do use the bitmapData property of a Bitmap and pass it to the constructor of a new Bitmap object. I have not tried the following in action, but I want to hear whether any of you did and if the following would not work, what would:
Code:
var original_bitmap: Bitmap;
var copy_of_original_bitmap: Bitmap = new Bitmap(original_bitmap.bitmapData);
LiveDocs mention that the BitmapData being passed to a Bitmap constructor is "being referenced", which to me might suggest it cannot be used twice? There is also the BitmapData::clone() method, which I am not sure is applicable here or not.I know this is a lot of talk instead of just trying this out, but I test so much Flash Player code daily just to see "what works" (which should be documented instead by Adobe),

If I have a BitmapData that's already been drawn onto a Sprite. Is there a way to redraw the BitmapData onto a Sprites Graphics object without having to invoke beginBitmapFill and passing in the same BitmapData?

I'm working on a game, and to keep performance good, instead of addChild'ing 50 new sprites to the stage every second, I decided to have each player draw to their own bitmap, and then to the 'master' bitmap. This introduces an issue though: the second player would override all data the first player has put into to bitmap...My basic debugging proof of concept:
Code:
// bitmap test

I have a bitmap which has several frames (packed along the horizontal axis). In order to render them I copy it to the backbuffer (larger bitmap) as follows:

Is there a way to write a bitmap font right into the bitmap being desplayed? Mabey better worded: myBitmap.draw(image, t) draws a picture is there a way to draw text? I'm stuck even if its just a work around in some way I would like to know... (the current work around i have in my head is writing it in a movieclip turning that into bitmap data and drawing it... esentially creating a prototype answering my question... but a built in way would be easier probably).

In AS3, I am loading a png from a zip file (nochump's zip library through ByteArray to Loader). The png can be up to 45k pixels wide but only 120 tall. This creates a problem in flash, as images can only be ~8000 pixels wide. A possible solution would be to split the images into 6 columns somehow. This would probably need to be done in the ByteArray state, because the limitation is in Bitmap and Loader.

I'm using Sandy to animate some objects in 3D. What I currently do to images which are EXPORTED in the library, I want to do to some bitmaps that I create using the DRAW technique. But it wont work :-(
CODE FOR 'CREATED BITMAP' :
ActionScript Code:
var bData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(myObject.width,myObject.height);
bData.draw(mask5);
[Code]....
Sandy doesn't seem to treat the 'created' bitmap the same as those that are exported from the library.

Letīs say I have a bitmap with 3 colors: red, green and blue (not mixed)
What if I wanted to make a bitmap of the red part of the first bitmap?
Iīd like to take the red pixels from first bitmap (and its positions), and make another bitmap.

I haven't worked very much with bitmap manipulation and I need to create an app that can find a bitmap (or a pattern of pixels really) in another bitmap.Are there other methods of doing it besides iterating through the pixels and using getPixel()?I'm of course looking for the most effective solution.

i have a mapMC on the stage and 6 buttons. i need to be able to make the buttons move the mapMC to specified coordinates. the coordinates are set and will never change. i also need an easing from one location to the next. i guess i'll go ahead and throw in a bonus question for any of you aces out there. lets say location "A" is at x=200, y=400. i would like the mapMC to get there and scale 120%. so a button that gets pressed will go to its coordinates and scale acordingly. i can see that this could be script heavy, but for some reason not too difficult.

first have a look at this: [URL] It loads "auto" coordinates from php file, and makes the "auto" move after timeinterval. It is needed tht it could load infinate coordinates, but i fail to do it. If u change setProperty(auto, _x, kord ) to setProperty(auto, _x, x2 ) , it works, but as u can see only with one coordinate.

When I use 3D rotation tool, there is an option called global transform, if it turned off, the object would rotate by its own axes, this is exactly what I want. How can I do rotatation like that with AS3 code? Is there any property if changed then rotationX/Y/Z would rotate object by its axes?

I've usually designed Flex applications myself but this time I'll need a designer to assist with skinning the application. I've worked with this designer for a while, and we could work well on an HTML/CSS environment. He can't code, he sends me sliced PSDs which I could convert to clean code. But I'm not sure how to have him assist me with Flex UI as he's not familiar with the components.How do you guys interface with designers for your applications?

I have a problem when one B.swf file is loaded to another A.swf file.A.swf file size is 400x400.B.swf file size is 100x100.B file has a movie clip (MC) which is animated and position of this movie can be from Y:-100 to Y:200. B file is loaded into the center (X:150, Y:150) of the A file.When B file is loaded, then animation starts. I have a problem: I can see animated movie clip B out of B screen scope (for example: when B.swf file movie clip has _y = -100 I still can see that movie clip in A.swf).

our collaborators misposition the registration points of MCs.Here's the deal: we need to recover the REAL MC's coordinates (not the ones based on registration point). Is it possible? How? I've tried some code already (like getBounds and getRect functions) but all of 'em consider the registration point.
