View 5 RepliesI'm trying to work out how to create a simple demo that works as follows: A ball falls from the top of the stage.Player is able to draw a line anywhere on the stage. The ball will bounce/roll along the line such that the player can guide it at will. I don't think the coordinate rotation will be a problem for me but I can't figure out how to transform a line drawn by the player into a hit detectable sprite -- or realkly any way that I can get those line coordinates into my coordinate rotation routine. To keep it simple, I'm just working on the first part of the problem, getting the line to where I can hit test or know its position.Here is my code so far:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;[code]........
It always traces 0,0 instead of my current line coordinates - and even those I don't think would be sufficient.
On mouse move i have a line drawn using lineTo method. This works like in Paint or most drawing programs: the mouse drawing like a pencil. What i need now, and dont know how to accomplish, is to add a number of mclips over that line. And this mclips should be over the line but separated to each other (different x and y of the drawn line). So in the end when moving the mouse the user should get a line and, every certain distance, a number of mclips over it.
View 2 RepliesI'm drawing a simple line with API and I would like to know how to detect what angle the line has and where a ball hits it.Scenario: the player draws a random line in a random angle, a ball comes in from random points and hits the line, the ball then bounces off the line depending on where it hit the line (and of course depends on the line's angle).I draw the red line with this: (on a 400x400 stage)Actionscript Code:graphics.lineStyle(2, 0xFF0000, 100);graphics.moveTo(150, 150);graphics.lineTo(250, 250);The grey, green and purple lines are just demonstation of the ball movement, comming in from outside the screen, hitting the line and bouncing off in different directions. I just made a guess on the angle they will bounce off in.
I just can't figure out how to detect the line's angle and where the ball hits it. So all I have is a ball flying in from random positions and hitTests the line (not coded yet, but no problem to do ball movement and hitTesting with line), I don't know where to go from there until I know how to detect where it hits the line.I know this is a double post (from the Games section), but I realized this place seems to have more activity and not many seem to visit the Games place anymore.
In Flash CS4, I'm trying to change the stroke width of my line or shape, with it selected, but the stroke width slider is greyed out (thus, unadjustable). Is it possible to edit a stroke width after something has been created? If so, how can this be done? I've tried selecting the line in all kinds of crazy ways, but still can't edit it.
View 3 RepliesI want to the user to be able to draw a line and then have a sprite follow the line as its path. Also, it would be nice if the line could be cleaned up after the user draws it with his/her mouse so that it is made up of clean curves/spline.
View 1 RepliesAt the moment I am using two mini objects within the line to calculate the slope of the line I have.
I was wondering if there was some easy function within as3 to find the slope of a line that had been drawn out, if not... I suppose I have my own theories on how to do it, such as checking for hit tests in a circle until I find the line.
this is the thing: Using "lineTo" i get a line drawn on stage when dragging a mc. Then i should have four mc (note1, note2, note3, note4) added randomly over this line. I mean, the line is drawn and then over some parts of this line, using x and y of some of the points drawn there, this movie clips should be added randomly. I can make the mc appear randomly, but always in the same point (mouseX, mouseY); i cannot access others x and y of the drawn line. This is my code (noteContainer is a sprite):
Code:
private function drawingAPI(event:MouseEvent):void{
sprite1.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
}

I have an application that creates a chart dynamically. This chart has a lot of information plotted on it (4-6 stock trends). I want to be able to toggle some of those lines with a button. Each trend is drawn with something like this:
Code:
// establish a new Vector object for the commands parameter
var line_commands:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int>();
line_commands.push(1,2,2,2);
// establish a new Vector object for the data parameter
var line_coord:Vector.<Number> = new Vector.<Number>();
// use the Vector array push() method to add a set of coordinate pairs
line_coord.push(0,0, 75,50, 100,0, 125,50);
graphics.drawPath(line_commands, line_coord);
How would I toggle the line I just drew? My first idea would be to put some of this code inside a function and redraw the line with the same color of the movie's background color. I don't know if this is the best option, I was wondering if I could draw this line inside a Sprite or Movie Clip and just toggle its visibility?
is there a way using AS3 to get objects to follow a path (a drawn line) or will i have to set waypoints?

im making a game where when you click a line is drawn in the direction you clicked. I need to use hitTest with it, how would i go about doin that? here is the stuff.This is on the main timeline, it links to the gun. "bullet" is an empty clip

gun.onEnterFrame = function ()
{
var angle:Number = Math.atan2 (_root._ymouse - this._y, _root._xmouse - this._x);[code]....
i Need to hitTest the line drawn in ^ with a clip called enemy. How would i go about doing that?
I have drawn a series of lines using flash's graphics.lineTo command, and placed them in an array to be referenced later. Based on certain user interactions, the clips that hold these lines can be shifted to the right, causing the lines to move with them, no longer connecting to the point they originally connected to. So I need to extend the lines by the amount their parent clip was shifted (I've called this incVal). So what I need to do is find the point at which each of these lines ended at, and draw from that point to the left by incVal. How do I get that ending point of the line?
This is my code:
To draw line and add it both to the clip and to an array for future reference:
line.graphics.lineTo(localPoint.x,localPoint.y-10);
membersRef.addChild(line);
parallelArr.push(line);

I've got a movieclip of a rectangle in my library which I place on stage to attachMovie. Then I create an empty movieclip which I want to use as a mask on that rectangle clip through setMask. Users kan draw into that empty movieclip. My intention is that only those areas of the rectangle clip become visible where the user is drawing a line. So I used this:
Actionscript Code:
_root.attachMovie("clip", "clip", 0);
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("line", 1);
clip.setMask(line);_root.onMouseDown = function() {
line.moveTo(_xmouse, _ymouse);
line.lineStyle(10, 0x00FF00, 100);
this.onMouseMove = function() {
line.lineTo(_xmouse, _ymouse);
updateAfterEvent();};};
_root.onMouseUp = function() {
this.onMouseMove = null;};
But that doesn't work: both the line drawn and the rectangle clip become invisible. I know it works because without the setMask part the line is drawn. The other way around does work (line.setMask(clip)): the rectangle clip is now masking the drawn line so only the line becomes visible within the rectangle region. But I want it the other way around: the rectangle should become visible through the lines that are drawn!
I am trying to draw a line from x1, y1 to x2,y2 and i want it to be a line that repeats a pattern from an image. All I can see is that you can only draw lines and change their color or thickness but I would like it to repeat an image. Is that possible or do i have to use a really long and thin rectangle with a bitmap fill?The problem is I am making a game where the user will be able to actually draw the line so i have to make it be created dynamically. The game fantastic contraption [URL] has in the game a feature where you draw lines of any length and position that are filed with a picture.

View 11 RepliesHere's the deal: I have a dynamic textbox on stage containing htmlText populated from an xml file. The text contains a hyperlink created by an anchor tag who's href attribute calls an actionscript function. When the link is rolled over and rolled out, the line break changes if the text is extremely close to the right edge of the textbox.As far as I know the problem has something to with autoSize being true and the font being embedded. I believe when you rollover the link in the htmlText, the autoSize causes the text to be redrawn and somehow this time it breaks it instead of letting it go right up to the edge of the textbox.
Originally I had solved this problem by first calculating the height of the textbox with autoSize on, then turning autoSize off and setting the height manually. As I said this worked for years but, alas, it is doing it again.Just to make sure I turned autoSize back on and practically every screen with a hyperlink did have the same problem so turning autoSize off definitely fixed it, at least 99.9% of the time.I can quick fix it by changing the width of the textbox, even 1px so that the last word of the culprit line isn't so close to the edge. However, I am wondering, has anyone ever run into this problem before? Also, it would be nice to know the actual cause of the problem rather than just using work-arounds.

I'm importing text from an XML file into a textField. It includes a couple of image links.I'd like the images to display next to each other, but Flash seems to be forcing a linebreak between them.Note I'm using (pound ampersand 10 semicolon - seem to get converted to linebreaks in this forum) to create linebreaks manually - not that it should have any bearing. Have tried separating image tags with nonbreaking space, regular space - also made sure textField was plenty wide enough. No luck.Is this just "the way it is" or is there some way to get my images to display inline?Sample XML:

I'm trying to setup a button to exit my swf.I used:
System.exit(0);
But always get the error:
SecurityError: Error #2018: System.exit is only available in the standalone Flash Player. at flash.system::System$/exit() at menu_fla::MainTimeline/sair_fc()
How should I do this?
I have installed the CS3 on a Dell workstation with Windows XP SP3 and when I try to exit when finished, Flash will not exit. It seems like it is trying but will not close. There is no error, the program just sits there. You have to right click on the program and click close to get it to close. Then the program wants to send a error.

I have a Template that I bought for a client that wanted it. It has background looping music and my customer wants to add videos (FLV), no problem.

I need the background music to sop playing when the FLV videos are playing. I have Google and found nothing really.
