View 7 RepliesI've recently decided to trace over an animation from a cartoon as a reference for my own animation that I am making. Now, my hang up is that I use the line tool for the tracing, and then convert the lines to paint so that I can shape them better to match how the characters from the show look. Where the legs connect to the body the line get gradually thinner from where it started.
I don't have a tablet and trying to do it with the mouse leaves too many lumps. The results are not acceptable, nor efficient. In all, I have about forty frames to optimize my traced lines, to the good looking tapered paint. The show was done in flash, so I know it must be possible in CS5. Aside from the subselection tool (Which horribly warps my lines and is extremely tedious for a frame by frame animation), does anybody know a more efficient way to do this?

My code is on the main timeline.I call a function loop to draw lines between them.The lines are drawing between the right x, y values BUT between those values on the main stage, not those values within the kite.For example, dot1_mc is at x100, y0 inside kite. the line that should go from its center, draws from stage x100, 0.How do I draw the lines inside kite so that they draw between the dots?Heres my code that draws the linesPHP Code:
function loop():void{ lineDrawing.graphics.clear(); var a:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot1_mc.x, kite_mc.dot1_mc.y); var b:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot2_mc.x, kite_mc.dot2_mc.y); var c:Point = new

We have some dozens of SWF files and we need remove a certain fill of each SWF file, to each frame! That fill is purple color and it should help, but we aren't SWF experts.
What we want is developing a tool (in Delphi, C++ or any language) able to read each SWF file and modify it, generating a new version without that purple fill.
I was wonder how i can make a bar that fills up as part of the movie progresses.
View 1 RepliesI am very new to Flash CS4, however I was able to create a preloader with help from a Dan Carr tutorial.Here is my source
import fl.video.*;import fl.controls.ProgressBarMode;
// Set Variablesvar flvControl = display;var flvSource = "op.flv";[code]....
The movie loads and plays but the preloader only loads part of the way. How would I go about having the preloader progress bar load all the way then have the movie start?
I'd like to create a load bar that fills up, then goes back down (where back to start would == a fully loaded page), almost like an 'elastic loader'.

View 2 RepliesIs it possible to draw a rectangle dynamically using 'lineTo()' and have it fill with a gradient that is 100% alpha on one side and 0% on the other?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to draw a box shape on screen which fills with a gradient, but according to the angle between your start and end mouse points. ie, if you draw from 100x100 to 200,200, the angle will be 45 degrees and it will draw your gradient fill within 100x100 to 200,200 on a 45 degree angle.
Trouble is, I can EITHER get the angle working just fine if I fill the entire shape, or the angle isn't right but the fill area is correct. Please see the attached fla and click drag within the red box, trying out the 2 matrix arrays in thereto see the 2 x scenarios listed above.
I am creating a chart using mxml. The mxml tags only create a chart with a horizontal axis and vertical axis. My result event handler has actionscript code that loops through the xml result set and creates all the series (line series and stacked bar). This part of the code works fine. Now I need to use the functionfill function to set individual colors to each series. All the examples I have found call the functionfill from within an MXML tag, like so:

I wanted to e to replace the standard flex bar chart bars with my own image. This worked by embedding the image and setting as a bitmapfill. however these images dont scale well even tho i have applied 9 slice scaling when embedding.

I've attempting to create a tiling image that fills the stage using AS3. Its all well and good until the stage is resized - once this happens things being to look very poor. At first I thought it was a smoothing issue but now I realise that the same image is being drawn over itself again and again. As I want to eventually have this over video, I need the transparency. If I use an opaque image, obviously you cant see the problem.
I've tried adding a condition to remove the child that is being drawn to in several ways but this dosen't seem to work. You can see these commented out in the code below.

I have a 4x4 set of square buttons that I need to give instance names to. They will be named 'btn_1' thru 'btn_16'. Is there any shortcut to assigning the names or do I have to go through 16 times clicking on the button and clicking down to the 'instance name' text box?

View 2 RepliesI want to scrub the timeline using a shortcut. What I mean is... I want to use something like the arrow keys to go forward and back and frame, each keypress taking me back and forth, without having to manually scrub. Hitting Enter and Enter again is not useful enough for what I'm seeking.

how I can have my swf fill the entire browser (as in publish settings 100% w & h etc) but not stretch/distort the text and images in the swf.
There is a site [URL] that does this. It fills the whole screen yet when you resize, the objects do not become distorted.
I may have the wrong approach with publish settings width & height 100%??
I've been trying to embed some svg files into an AS3 project using the Embed meta tag. For example:
[Code]...
However when displaying these files as Sprites only some of the gradients are surviving the embeding process. From what I've found simple (2 step) horizontal gradients seem to stand the best chance of being preserved, but sometimes other kinds of gradients are as well. In one case simply rotating an object 90 degrees causes the gradient to vanish when displayed in flash. Does anyone know a rough set of rules to use when creating svg gradient fills so they are preserved when rendered in flash? BTW: I used Inkscape to create the images in question.
Update: Bizarrely the solution to this seems to be setting the opacity of any object in the svg file whose gradient isn't displayed properly to a value below 1. Don't ask me why this works but it does. It does however have the unwanted side effect of the objects edges not being rendered as smoothly.
i have a graffiti-looking font that is "outlined", that i need to somehow use actionscript to turn the text into fills, then fill in the middle of each character to make solid letters.
is it even possible to use AS to convert text to fills?
even if i need to use bitmapData somehow, is it possible to do what i'm trying to do?
I am really tired of searching a solution to make my site to a fullscreen flash site..What i want to make is a site that fills the screen without extra spaces and all..The funny thing is it is working fine in swf but not in html..When viewed in html there is a big white space to the right..I have tried several solutions for this line making the html "width and height to 100 %" and scale mode to " noscale" It didnt work I tried changing the html code itself like this:-
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Is there way to use bitmap fills instead of solid colors for the Coloring Book by Zelwyn?I want to color shapes with bitmap fills. If the user changes his mind, then he could recolor the shape with a new bitmap.It would be the exact same as the coloring book, except using image bitmap fills.
View 4 RepliesI have a Flash file for an advanced preloader that fills up a circle with an image as the file loads. The problem is that the readout on screen is the percentage loaded. I am trying to get it to read kilobytes loaded over the total number of kilobytes, with the image synchronized with the amount loaded. I can actually send you the .fla file via e-mail so that you can see what I have.
