ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Drawing Effect In Flash That Many Of Us Have Seen On Various Websites.
Jan 18, 2007
I want to create the drawing effect in Flash that many of us have seen on various websites.URL...I have an object already made in Fireworks. It's just a simple rounded rectangle with a 10 pixel stroke. I'm looking to draw the mask which in turn will give the impression to the user that the object is being drawn (because masks work in reverse).Right now, I have a version already done with a frame-by-frame slow erase of the mask. When played, it makes it look like the rectangle is being drawn. The problem is that it's just too shaky and jumpy. I need a more fluid animation which, like most things, can be done much better in ActionScript. I saw the Drawing API tutorial on Kirupa.com, but it doesn't show how to animate it and I definitely don't know enough AS to do it myself.

I'm a web designer. In a effort to make Flash-based sites for my clients I have gone over stacks of AS books now for months. I just don't get any of it--and I've tried. Moreover, the books all give abstract examples to do just about anything with AE. My needs are very limited: I need to use AS for web navigation in order to create Flash-based websites. Here's an example of what I'd like my websites to do: [URL]
Can anybody point me to Flash templates, demos, tutorials, AS libraries, websites, videos, classes, that focus on Flash navigation, with specific examples of real life websites? Or blocks of code where all I have to do is replace some lines with my own stuff? Or an AS library comparable to jQuery? I know this has to be doable. I don't know any JavaScript either, but I'm perfectly able to fulfill all my web design needs with jQuery.

1) With these technologies is it possible to create a simple web browser that can render websites?
2) Is it possible to run these technologies on the server side? I am guessing no as Flash requires a browser to run within?

What I'd like is the ability to draw a line with the drawing tools in Flash, and have that line appear onscreen as if it were being drawn. I don't think there's a way to do that with the animation tools (I'd like to give it a go, but I have no idea, once I've drawn a line and converted it into a symbol, how I could access the anchor points and whatnot of said line to then do some funky stuff with curveTo, or whatever better solution is out there...

I would love to get some help or advice on how to create an effect in a drawing application. I want to build a drawing application, which is not that difficult. I've found several resources on these type of applications. What I want to do is "merge" 2 examples that I've found. This drawing application makes sense to me and I feel I can modify it to my liking. (sorry in advance I cant post links)

I want to end up with the following effect. Bitmap pencil quickly moves accross the canvas diagonally and reveals an image. The image itself is drawing so I kinda want to make the illusion that the pencil draws whatever is on it. I don't want the pencil to follow the actual line in the image just to ask like a mask and quickly reveal the picture. So I was wondering if there is any cleverer way to achieve this, instead of animating everything manually

i'm a newbie using Flash CS4 and AS3. A retired social worker, I need to create a basic Flash drawing tool for an eLearning project to teach students how to draw their family tree.
The drawing tool would allow the students to add multiple circles and squares to symbolize their family members, plus text labels for names, ages, and they would need to be able to draw connecting lines between the circle and square symbols. Finally, in order to continue work on the drawing, over time, they would need to be able to save their drawings to be re-opened and edited (add new symbols, erase incorrect ones, etc.). Once the drawing is completed, they would need to be able to print a copy.
Being a newbie (but I have done some related scripting: JavaScripting-ECMA-262, HTML, CSS), I am not sure if this can be done in AS3, Flash CS4. But, if it is possible, I would like to learn how to create this.

i am creating a very simple particle system. My only issue is trying to create a blurry trail effect on the particles in motion. I started by creating a large bitmap container, and applying a colormatrix filter and a blur filter . It seems to do the trick , but the issue now, is i have to make this container cover the stage, which has a two unwanted a effects:
-it's slower
-it covers all the content beneath. Perhaps my approach to creating trails is wrong?
i can post the whole class, but before i litter this post with long lines of code, is there a way to place a bitmapdata drawing over content and still get the desired effect. NOTE, if make transparency false in the bmdata, i loose the effect

I am adding "layer" objects to the stage with a depth value.
I have then created my own camera class. When I tell the camera to move to the right what Im actually doing is telling each layer object to move to the left.
The distance that the layer moved to the left is based on the value of its depth variable...
var fCameraDepth = 1;
var fTan:Number = Math.tan( fCameraMovement / fCameraDepth );
oLayer.x += fTan * fLayerDepth
This works well and gives me a really nice parallax effect. The problem I'm having is that I want to be able to tell the camera to look at a movie clip on any layer but I'm having trouble figuring out how to convert the movie clips coordinates to the cameras depth.
Im trying something like this...
var fCameraDepth = 1;
var fCameraPosition:Number = oCamera.x;
// the layer will have a + or - x val compared to the camera so we

I am looking to create a 'tentacle' like effect for a flash animation. A frame by frame animation is not ideal as it is arduous and not very easily manipulated.
I have attached an fla of the effect I am looking for. Ideally it would be a line that snakes in and grows thicker at the back end. I can create it in the way included in the fla but it is not very portable and i cannot overlay different tentacles.
I think that a layer mask would be good but I cannot think of a way to go about it.

When it comes to ActionScript 3 or programming, i'm newb. But I want to create an odometer effect in my flash movie. It's just a plain dynamic text box.[code]FastMile is the instance name of the text box. It works OK - the mileage is incrementing by 1s. After 10 seconds, it starts to increment by 10. Still works OK.But when I want it to start incrementing by 100s, the text starts to shake and I cannot see what's going on.However, the movie stops at 76931 miles as intended.

When someone "click and holds" I want to fire off function over and over, say, once every 100ms while the mouse is clicked. Instead of MouseEvent.CLICK I would look for MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and then start a timer on that event function that calls another function every 100ms. Then, on MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP I would stop the timer. Am I on the right track? Will I be able to get updated X and Y coordinates while the mousedown event is firing?
