i'm creating a grid and i can place everything in nice columns but i cannot figure out how to create a new row. here's the code i use:
Code:
var numColumns:Number = 7;
var columnWidth:Number = Stage.width/7;

There's not that I can't do this, I just want the best way on how to. I want to create a grid in as3 and draggable items that snap to the grid. I guess you all know what I mean. The best way seems to create small boxes like explained in URL... Then add an addeventlistener to it that when the draggable item hits it, the x and y need to be set. Or is there an easier way?
View 4 RepliesI would like to create a simple 2D interactive grid. The user should be able to increase and decrease the number of axis (both X and Y simultaneously) that compose the grid, and also the scale of the grid itself (Zoom in and Out).
If this goes well enough, I would like to be able to plot graphical content on the grid that visually changes as the grid itself changes. They should, in some way, be linked to one another and correspondingly affected by the same two parameters. This, however, would be a second step. I am more concerned with the base grid model at this point.

View 14 RepliesI'm having problems creating a grid that will change individual movieclips' frame when rolled over when the mouse is down. My script seems to be acting erratically, when I push buttons, all of the mcs change even though the code to change them is onRollOver.Click on the "Create Your Own Map" button in the bottom left.Then you should be able to use the buttons in the bottom right to select the new color/value of the grid items.Here is the code I am using to do this:

I'm trying to create a grid of hexagons by using nested for loops. I picked up this code trawling the forums but this creates a diamond shaped pattern of hexes rather than neat rows that interlock together. I want to create one row in the first place, increment the x and y placing coords so as the next row is offset as appropriate to lock it into place under row above.
This is the code I'm using, which is clearly not doing the trick.
spacing = 35;
spacing2 = 35;
for (x = 0; x < 10; x++){

View 2 RepliesI am working on a project where I need an interactive matrix of 500x500 clickable elements. I thought this would be an easy task in actionscript3 but boy was I wrong. I was able to create a matrix where each element was a Sprite object with attached Mouse click event. But here the performance problems begin. FlashPlayer10 can handle up to 100x100 matrix, but when I increase my matrix I start getting script timeout in browser player... Here is how my "unfinished" matrix looks like.So how should I approach this problem? I was hoping flash will be able to handle so many elements, but I guess I was wrong. I want to have a pan control to pan around for objects off screen and of course zoom in/out control.It's true I'm not very professional in Flahs and actionscript but a friend who is told me this would be no problem implementing in AS3? I need this in flash as the thing needs to be hosted on website.

I really like the text effect Pom used in the footer contest, and would like to use the same grid-type method of creating mc letters but with a different effect. i understand how to change the parameters and shapes of the letters, but can't seem to figure out which piece of code is purely for the explosion effect. basically, i want the letters but with the 'Repel' effect from[URL] here is Pom's AS:

I'm currently working with the OLAPDataGrid component and got stuck at a relatively simple task: I want to style the last row of the grid differently from the rest, so my cell item renderer needs to know whether he's rendering the last row with content in the overall grid, including those rows currently not rendered because they are outside the visible grid space. AdvancedGridListData's rowIndex property only gets me the row index of the renderer relative to the range of visible grid rows, i.e. when I scroll down the grid, a data item with an index greater than 0 gets the rpw index = 0.
View 2 RepliesI need to create a simple multiplication grid where children will fill the grid. Its an empty grid at the begining, when they start the time start as well.Its a grid of 10 x 10. when they enter the last number, the grid should show what they did wrong and the time they spend. It's an idea of how it could work but if anyone has something that looks like this.

I have tried it by using simple loops but the method just fails for no reason I can figure.

I really like the thumbnail gallery for its simplicity and beauty. But I would like to ad or vertical scroller (I'm unable to find it here too, maybe I'm blind, just I'm more at the end of my seeking options) or a make a grid thumbnails, that will show 2 columns of thumbs and 5 pictures in each columns, then under the 2 columns i would like to ad a sort of arrow or button that if my gallery have more then 10 pictures it will go on the next thumbnail list. I'm not looking for any extra fading effects or special movements. Just would love to have a single thumbnail grid on side, with option to have lists of thumbnails by 10 if there is more then 10 pictures or so.

I'm trying to code the snap to grid functionality. The dragged object should snap to the grid if the distance between the object bounds and a grid line is less than 5px. I found a way to do it if the object's rotation is 0 but it doesn't work if I rotate the object. I need a different approach. Can you point me into the right direction with the algorythm or any source code?

I want to create a website displaying grid-sorted videos (interviews - movies showed in rows and columns). I want it to be 'a page with talking heads'. When users clicks on a video it starts playing. I consider two ways:
The whole website made in flash - dynamically assigned number of videos per row/column and page, depending on the user's screen resolution. Website made in php/html with help of JS and CSS - videos are displayed by YouTube player or other player e.g. JW Player - videos position depends on screen resolution.

Right now I have need of several 56x5 grids of very simple information (0-9) in each slot-- I am just wondering what the most space-saving/easiest way of doing this is?
I could very easily make arrays for each grid, but it would take a lot of space. In the past when I had a similar problem and a lot of time on my hands I created (by hand) png files where each pixel had a separate color based on the information in that spot. I think this is a very good space saver but is very time consuming to create..
Is there a better option? Or is there an easy way to create the png files without wasting so much time painting them by hand?
