I'm working on a fullscreen flash project. I've got everything working fine, background tile, autocenter, etc one thing I can't find out is how to have a circle gradient over the background (fullscreen / autoresize) [URL]
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create spinning rays in actionscript to use in my website.Below is the rough idea of what i'm trying to create.Is it possible to create absolutely with 0 images.Following is the actionscript code in which i couldn't figure out how to add gradient, transperant background and little radial gradient to create glow effect.
Code:
function CreateRays():Shape {
var ray:Shape = new Shape();
ray.graphics.beginFill(0xFF9900,.5);
ray.graphics.lineStyle(1,0xFF9900,.5);
[code]....
If you paste above code in 1st frame of your scene with nothing on your scene, it will give you sweet rotating rays!
I have a graphic symbol of a circle that has a radial gradient fill of yellow to red. All I want to do is have it change from yellow to red to red to yellow. I tried the advanced color settings but that doesnt quite do what I want. With the color settings.. it changes the complete tint of the object. I want it to look like it is tweening the gradient not the object. So if the object had a yellow center with a red outer edge I want it to chenge to a red center with a yellow outer edge. How do I accomplish this?
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to learn just now how to dynamically create a radial gradient in a circle. All the pages that I can find use the command 'beginGradientFill', but when I use it I get the following messages:
Warning: 1060: Migration issue: The method beginGradientFill is no longer supported. For more information, see the Graphics class..
and
TypeError: Error #1006: beginGradientFill is not a function.
Unfortunately I can't seem to find the replacement, or any other pages that describe an alternative to that function. What is the way to do a radial gradient now?
how to set up 2 pre selected colors to tween a gradient to instead of "random" ones. My Goal would be to use this class as a dynamic background creater and i would like to have different gradient backgrounds on different pages.
View 1 RepliesFor a project I'm working on I'm trying to create a Flash file with a constantly color-shifting gradient that fills up the entire browser window. For a better explanation please see the following link:

Don't worry about the moving balls, those are just there to challenge the frameRate of the movie, which has a maximum of 60. If you look at the background you can see the gradient effect I'm referring to.
The method I'm currently using to create the gradient animation is a simple shape tween on the Flash timeline that tweens between shapes with different gradient colors. I'm definitely not achieving the performance I want using this technique.
I've also tried creating a static gradient and shifting its color over time using ColorTransform, but this doesn't offer any better performance.
So that's a long-winded way of asking what people think would be a better way to create such a color-shifting gradient while getting better performance? Some examples might be through bitmapData or using PixelBender, but I'm not versed enough in these techniques to know which would get me the best performance.
In a project, I've got 2 background (one light and one dark). My main background is the dark one and when I move my mouse I wanna show in a small circle with an alpha gradient the light one.
But I don't know how can I do that...
I try and I've got white mask with the light background in my circle or I've just got the dark background and no mask.
If someone already do that and can explain it to me ?
Sometime ago i ran into some url where they had a code for animating your background. Does someone have an idea how to do it or where to find it.

View 5 Repliesi am trying create a new background as vertical gradient. but i can not find such a option. only horizontal gradient in Flash CS3 ?
View 1 RepliesI have created a sprite gradient box as my background in my flash as3 file (using tweenmax). As i'm trying to make this a full screen swf on the browser window, i set the width and height according to the stage.
My trouble is that when I resize my browser, the gradient box does not resize with it... it only does when i refresh the window with the new width/height.
Is there a way I can put a redraw function in an event handler that will recognize the window resize? If this is hard to understand... can my background become bigger at the same time as the window is being dragged to a new size?

I'm working with Flex 3.4 SDK.
I'm trying to programmatically(yep, must be this way) style/skin a VBox so that its top right corner is rounded, and it gets a two colors gradient brackground.
Modifying examples I found around I was able to accomplish both effects(corner and background) but only separately:
VBox with not all rounded corners: [URL]
VBox with gradient background: [URL]
But what I need to do is to apply both at the same time. And all my coding attempts so far have failed silently.
I am trying to set the gradient background color for my panel via skins. I try to change my code but nothing seems to change. Not sure what to do.
My skin file
/<!-- layer 2: background fill --/>
<!--- Defines the appearance of the PanelSkin class's background. -->
<s:Rect id="background" left="1" top="1" right="1" bottom="1">

View 1 RepliesI have a website already done... but I'd like it to be over a full screen gradient background.I found a lot of tutorials and exemple on how to repeat a symbol picture to make a seamless background just like the one Lee Brimelow made on gotoandlearn.com, but I can't find one on how to make that gradient full screen background.
View 6 RepliesWhat I want is something kind of like this:However, I don't want it to respond to the mouse at all. I just want random sized circles, on different layers, and different alpha values, floating around on their own.I could do in the timeline, with symbols and motion paths, but it wouldn't really be random at all. I thought it would be better in ActionScript.Can anyone point me in the right direction here? If I could even find a tutorial or example of creating basic random movement that would be great. I did find this:...but this isn't what I want either. I don't want 'jerky' movement. I just want them to float in random directions. That code also doesn't seem to be very flexible
View 1 RepliesMy publish settings are Flash Player 9 with Bottom up Load order, and the Size of the stage has been set to 900x561.The HTML is published to load the SWF file as 100%x100% Additionally I added the following to the HTML Headers to disable scrollbars:

I writing the movie with AS3, and I am building a 4 image, gallery.I have 4 Adobe UIloader components that are side by side and have arrows that allow you to browse the images back and forth. The UIloader is configured to auto-resize the images that it loads.The UI Loader Size Is:
W: 175.0
H: 264.0
I am using an XML file to hold image info and I use an URLLoader to import the data into an array which is then feed to the UIloader to load via URLRequest().
Here is my AS:
// Stop the timeline
stop();
// Import functions
[code]....
I first created an image that is the exact dimensions of the URLLoader and it looks OK but somewhat pixelated 1024x768 but on larger resolutions the images are very pixelated. So I created a picture that was 1024 x 1542 and again this looks OK on larger resolutions but is horrible on smaller resolutions.
I'm no professional flash designer but I've got a partially built site at url... and I've used a piece of generic javascript to make the background scaleable, but it doesn't seem to be the most appropriate thing to be doing as it doesn't detect any scaling of the browser while the preloader is running,(eg. if you resize the browser while its loading it wont have resized the background once its loaded), could anyone direct me to a script or tutorial in AS3 that would resize even if adjusted while the preloader is running? I've found a couple in AS2 but i'm not quite smart enough to make it in AS3 myself yet.

I wonder how you can put a fullsize background image to a website using Flash, similar to how www.zugspitze.de does.I can copy the HTML code but what does the flash document looks like?
View 1 RepliesI need to create a fullscreen background when I press a button, so I created this code, it works only if I'm not in fullscreen mode... why??
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE,resizing);
[Code].....
I can't understand why if I push de button to go full screen and then I press the button to create the "ombra" sprite, it doesent work, it doesnt create the sprite, but If I press esc to go out the full screen, it magically apper.
If I press the createOmbra button before going full screen everithing works fine.
I just wana use a full screen background one that fills up the screen and not the browser controls that's not what I want. I mean like this: [URL].
View 6 RepliesI'm creating a site and am trying to achieve a full screen video background like this: [URL]. The idea is that it adapts to any screen resolution/size (is this called ScaleMode?) Which is the easiest way to get this effect - is there some sort of code or application to make it easier? Also, which video size should I pick so it shows correctly in all resolutions?
View 1 RepliesI want to load an image into the background of my Flex app. However, I am wondering about a few things, and have a few contraints.I want it to be much like the way it's done with CSS. See this example of fullscreen background images with CSS.It is very important that there is no white-space (background colour) showing behind the image, and that the image is not stretched. This would mean some of the image would be cut off. This is absolutly fine. Actually, the first five points in the bulleted list on the linked page above are all exactly what I am after.I am relitivly new to the Flex framework, but have a strong AS3 background. So I can do this easily with actionscript using a mask, stage.width/height, the stages RESIZE event, and a little bit of Math. But I am wondering what would be the "Flex" way of doing this?I don't want to narrow the answers, but would I create my own component, that extends canvas, that I put behind all my other content? Or to I set some property of the application?

I'm creating a fullscreen projector that has an FLV file on the stage. I successfully got the FLV to appear non full screen by using the answers for the following question:
Non-fullscreen FLVPlayback
However, the background still goes black just before the FLV comes to the stage.
It runs fine when the projector is not set to fullscreen - background is there along with my close button.
I have used Ultimate 3D Carousel AS2 which is a great little flash script for 3D menus and integrated it with a script i found for getting the background to stretch full screen. But I need it so that the menu stretches larger the bigger the screen is like the background and to stay in the centre. Here is my flash file [URL].
View 7 RepliesI'm currently working on this site, which was made on a linear timeline and just rewinds and fast fowards to the frame with each page on [URL]
This was done with limited Actionscript, but now I need to redo it almost entirely in AS
I figure I need to keep everything on one frame (separate vertical frames, but no animation horizontally) and create movieclips for each page's content and tell it to fade in the content of whatever page is clicked on the nav, and fade out the rest. I will also need to do the same, but with the background images in fullscreen. I also have a problem with the bottom nav. It adjusts to window height on resize, but I can't get it to adjust automatically.
So how do I
1. Tell the movieclips to fade in and out when a button is clicked
2. Get the background images to fit full screen, and also fade in/out for each page
3. Get a movieclip to adjust to screen size without using onResize
I'm creating a flash projector file and need to scale background full-screen.The background is a gradient shape.I made it full screen and resized background so width and height is stage width and height but it still won't work.
View 4 RepliesThis fullscreen code works properly if the stage is 400 x 400 px or smaller than .flv ( I tested it in both in html and swf ).
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, onF);
function onF (event:MouseEvent):void{
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
video.fullScreenTakeOver = true;
}
But the video is not going fullscreen if the stage is bigger than 400 x 400. I have to make a stage big in order to design the rest of my website.
Publish settings : exact fit, 100% width 100% height, flash only Allow Full Screen.
