ActionScript 2.0 :: Diagonal Grid Can Be Done With Other Shapes?
Sep 17, 2004
instead of the grid fading horizontally or vertically, have the grid fade diagonally, or have it fade corner square, then left square beside it and top square above it (corner square) at the same time, then the ones beside those etc. as transition for the image below it, for a screen saver (5 or 6 images in a row). Also I was wondering if this diagonal grid (assuming it can be done) can be done with other shapes (instead of squares).

here is the existing chunk of code:
if (status != FlexFieldInfo.EDITABLE) {
setToolTip(uiComponent, status, entityForm);
graphics.beginFill(0xFFABC0);
graphics.drawRect(0, 0, unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
graphics.endFill();
i would like to replace the background color with a tiling background-image. i understand that "graphics." can only fill or draw. i understand the chunk of "graphics." in the code above needs to change to something else, but i am at a loss of how to call the following image: background-image: Embed("images/bg-uneditableField.jpg");
I have searched high and low unsuccessfully. I am a front-end developer just stepping in to our Flex 3 environment and am not a strong javascript/.as person. Note: our application needs to stay in Flex 3, upgrading is not an option at this time.

I place a group of movie clips with random types (different shapes on a square) in a grid formation The code for placing the movie clips is this (this is in two for loops):
[Code]...
this goes up a single column in the grid and should remove the tiles from the stage depending on each type and it does this (sort of) until it tries to remove more than one of the same type. So if it finds and removes an lShapes it doesn't error until it tries to remove another lShapes and then it gives this error in the output: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. So I am assuming that this means it thinks all lShapes have been removed and thinks I'm trying to remove something that doesn't exist but there are other lShapes on the stage. I am at a loss as to what to do about this.

I have a question about shapes (i mean the flash.display.Shape class). Is it possible to import Shapes directly from the library as Shapes and not as Sprites/MovieClips? Shapes are supposed to be faster than MovieClips/Sprites, right? So why is it only possible to import MCs/Sprites from the library? I understand that generally shapes could be created solely by actionscript, but in my case the shape comprises of many points and is curved - so it's quite infeasible.
Is there maybe some sort of plugin to generate code that would draw the desired shape from a drawn shape in CS4? And a last one: Are there any benchmarks out there for performance comparison between sprites/mcs/shapes? How much performance do i loose by using a sprite instead of a shape?

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.

I 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 want to make a square grid of fixed side length but varying grid number using code.That is, the number of grids should be specified by the user (say 3*3) and after pressing a button, the stage should be broken into 3*3 grids.I don't want any code, just a method on how to do it. I have tried it by using simple loops but the method just fails for no reason I can figure.

Whenever I add paddingRight to a column in the flex grid, it adds the padding to the header as well.Is anyone familiar with how I can add paddingRight just to the column and not to the header? Below is the column code where I was specifying the padding.
<mx:DataGridColumn width="60" headerText="Type" dataField="Grade" headerStyleName="headerLeft" textAlign="left" draggable="false" resizable="false" headerRenderer="GridHeaderRenderer" paddingRight="5"/>

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 downloaded a royalty free flash file, that had a text effect I want for a menu of a project of mine. It didn't had much info, so I bought it, only to find out everything is pretty much done with AS2 (I think, may be AS1).
The thing is I want this menu in diagonal position (4�)
By default I only see:
Actionscript Code:
var xo = 10; var yo = 30;

How would I go about making diagonal link like this one.I drew a retangle so that my text would fit in, select both text and rectangle, F8 turn into button,then I turn them 45degree. When hover the text change color the way I want, but the problem is that the button enters the hover state way too soon when my mouse isnt over the rectangle yet.Seems like as long as my mouse falls within x and y coordinates of the text then it goes into hover state.For example my mouse is under the diagonal box, not in yet, but right under the text and it would go into hover state.

min=50;
max=400;

What I need to do is find the rectangle of a rotated rectangle. I have a house that is diagonal and I need to find the rectangle of the bottom of the house so I can check for collisions. I was hoping to use the rectangles to find intersections. Something like - if (playerRect.intersects(houseRect.bottom){ do something };Every time I try to get the rectangle of a rotated rectangle, all I get is the bounding box which is not rotated.

I'm building a small editor that allows users to place electrical components onto a grid so that they can see how electricity works. I have built a grid using an array and for loops and attach movieclips dynamically to that grid. What I want the moviclips to do is to look in the four spaces either side of itself i.e. up, down,left and right.I have managed to pull the grid coordinates out of the grid which enables me to tell the clip which grid space to look at but have been unable to successfully get the code to work.Here is my code:
myGrid = [[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],
[1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],[code]....

i'm trying to restrict the movement of a mc to the diagonal. so even if i click and drag it towards the x direction, it moves the corresponding distance on the diagonal which is, the 45 deg angle line.same with the y direction..so when i click and move the mouse haphazardly, all the object does is to follow it on the diagonal.But i just cant figure out the math for it. i mean, theoretically i think i need to use the x-component of the mouse when its angle is < 45 and the y-component when its angle is > 45. but how do i find those angles in flash?

I'm working on a volume slider for a type of jukebox and what I'm using is an actual drawing that is on an angle, therefore the volume slider and handle aren't in a straight horizontal line.I've done the basic code to keep the handle within the distance of my slider "line" (left to right), but what I have obviously just constrains it to a rectangle.
on(press){
this.startDrag(false,0,0,32,9);
}
on(release){
this.stopDrag();
}
The slider and handle are both at actual size, that's why it's only 32 pixels wide that I need it to go across and 9 pixels down. I do realize that for what I want, it's much more involved than this simple startDrag code with 4 sets of numbers in it.I'm including the source file in Flash 8/Actionscript 2.0.

i'm working with don't supply me with any symbol/symbols that mean "and" I know || is for "or", ! is "isn't", but if I want to say something like:
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.LEFT || event.keyCode == Keyboard.DOWN)
{
}
except instead of ||, I'm looking for a symbol that means "and" I have 8 renders of a walk cycle in 8 different directions. (stored on 8 different movieclips within the main movieclip.) I want to try making an "if" statement that plays the diagonal animations when 2 arrowkeys are pressed at once.

Currently, I am using the code below. But it is telling me that the circle is starting to hit the line when it's y position is 40. But since the circle actually isn't crossing the line itself (virtually) until it's y position is at about 205, I don't want the trace-action called so early.
Code:
var circle: Sprite = new Sprite();
circle.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);
circle.graphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 10);
circle.x = 170;

I used some code that I found, I think even from you guys the scale an external swf being loaded onto a background movie clip. Works great with the exception that it clips some text and creates some funny diagonal lines and some poor picture quality. I have a feeling that this is down to a slight difference in sizing some where along the line. The stage size is 2560 x 1440 being scaled down to any size, but as I mentioned I don't think the height and width are quite in sync for the widescreen format.
[URL]
// perform initial size check
checkStageSize();
// register to re-check when stage size changes
stage.addEventListener( Event.RESIZE, onResize, false, 0, true );
