ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Draw A Cityscape
Nov 4, 2003
I wanted to dynamically draw a cityscape - just a bunch of straight lines and right angles. But there are lots of x,y coordinates to make the whole thing. Would it possible to put all those coordinates in a text file and then call that from Flash? As in, lineTo(use line 1 of text file, then use line 2, then use line 3) etc.Is this possible? And if so, what sort of AS is used? And does the text file have to be in a certain formate? (like x,y one per line or on one line separated by parentheses, or . . . ?).

i want to draw few countries dynamically, is it possible? the reason i am thinking of drawing dynamically is that if i use a sprite or movieclip which is square container. that will cause overlapping. so when the mouseover one, it might fire overlapping country container too.

I need to take a vector image I was given and add it to an animation whereby it appears as if the swash was drawn from left to right under a word.
Best I can do so far is make it appear under the word, but this isn't what has been asked for.

There have been many posts about how to draw letters dynamically. This is an example of drawing the font outlines dynamically. Not the same as "writing" them, but an interesting technique [URL].

I am trying to draw this image dynamically (attached image) so for example if user gives me value of 24 the graph has to be able to draw circles like in the image and split circles into 24 sectors ( draw 24 angled radiuses from the origin) ... How could this be done ?
The trick is once I accomplish this stage I need to be able to track intersections between each radius and 3 circles!!! Well the idea of the graph is that each radius is an answer to a question and can have a dot in the origin , intersection with first circle , second or third (each one represents answer 1 or 2 or 3 or 4... then it connects all dots on each radius depending on the 24 (in this example 24) answers. I've done this witha static graph where I knew there were gonna be 24 but now it needs to be first drawn dynamically because user chooses the number of question.

I am trying to make an animation where there are several locations(say A,B,C,D,......) made on a map. If a person clicks on one location A and then another location B, I wanted to draw a dotted line from point A (from destination of the plane) to point B (to destination of the plane) using AS3.

I have 4 coordinates from which i created a rectangle(using lines). I also created buttons dynamically. It works great for straight line. But when the coordinates generate diagonal lines im having a problem in making it go below the lines or fitting it inside the figure. See my pic for better understanding. I have also figured out how to rotate the button.[code]...

drawing out line that will serve as a mask im tryin to animate a drawing out of a line, but the line wont be an animation itself, itll be used as a mask that will reveal outline of a rectangle i'm starting right now and im on this stage so far, the problem is i dont understand why this line is not drawing out horizontally, while it should variables xpos and ypos are coordinates of the position i want to start drawing it from, xcor and ycor are the cooridnates that will be used to stop drawing once it reaches this point, then jump is how fast i want the line to draw(amount of pixels) ps:the type is there because i will also make another case for vertical line.
Code:
lineDraw = function(type, xpos, ypos, xcor, ycor, jump){
this.createEmptyMovieClip("temp", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.temp.lineStyle(5, 0x003300,100);
if(type=="horizontal"){

how to make a dynamic unfilled and filled circle. that will take input from a slider to dertermine how much of the circle is drawn. I wanted to use this for a preloader. Unlike the author I would like to use it inside of a document class. I am getting 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method createEmptyMovieClip through a reference with static type document. and 1120: Access of undefined property circ1. The second is caused from the first. How would I get this to work in my document class?
//original code
// x: circles center x, y: circles center y
// a1: first angle, a2: angle to draw to, r: radius
// dir: direction; 1 for clockwise -1 for counter clockwise

I am using the draw() method of the BitmapData to encode a jpeg of part of the image. Now this should be easy enough given the object I want to draw to the bitmap is on the stage at design time so I know its location and dimetions exactly! Heres the code I have in place.
Code:
var myBitmapSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData ( street.width, street.height, false, 0x333333);
myBitmapSource.draw(street, null, null, null, new Rectangle( 96, 5, 571, 450 ), true );
I know for a FACT that no part of the street clip I am drawing out is in negative space, and it's registration is (0,0). However, it cuts off A lot of the top of my image. y=5 in the above rectangle is where I need the top to be, but it cuts the top off of the image... even if I change it to 0, it has no effect.

I'm trying to do some lean blitting for an object that rotates by rotating it once at startup and capturing a BitmapData snapshot of each 5 degrees. The problem I'm having is that the draw() method of the BitmapData object is only picking up pixels in the MovieClip that are below and to the right of the registration point. If I change the MC so that the registration point is in the top left corner, I sometimes get what looks like most of the pixels, but the entire object rotates into and out of the frame, since it's rotating around the corner and not the center.

I need to be able to draw a thick patterend line between 2 points in AS3, I can't use the draw API because it doesn't all me to actually put detail (pattern etc) into the thickness of the line, I thought about perhaps using the line to create a bitmap version and then using that as a mask, but I remember many years ago seeing some examples that use a movieclip as a source for a line.

I am having an issue with using BitmapData.draw(stage). I am getting the following error:
SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/bla...bla...bla.swf cannot access null. No policy files granted access. Here is a portion of my code:
var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(2800, 2100); bd.draw(stage);//this is where the error happens All of the files referenced (.xml/.jpg/.swf) are located in the same local folder as the main .swf. How do I get around this error? The main objective is to print the stage using PrintJob(). I am using Flash Professional CS5.5 and publishing to Flash 10.0/10.1. Let me know if I need to supply any more info.

I have a game where i add some cartoonish ants, that when they are clicked, they need to be removed from stage. There are 4 differend kinds of ants, so im doing a Math.random for picking which one to add. (ant 1+2+3 have 50% chance to spawn and 4th 50%)
Code:
rnd_nbr = (Math.random() * 5)+1;
I have a timer doing 10 tick, and i reset the timer to make neverending. Then i have a math random and if sentences adding mc' to the stage with movement from Tweener, and event listeners for clicks. But i cant figure out how to remove them when clicked. I have done alot of failed tries right inside the click_candy_anty function. I've left them commented out.
Code:
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
var ant_index:Array = new Array(10);//index for ants
var ant_number:int;

Essentially, I've got a MC container that's created dynamically based off an XML file (basically for every <title></title> I've got, it makes a new "card"). Now within the context of each <title></title> grouping I've got <imgs></imgs> in which I specify the path to images that are related.All of that works perfectly, save for the external jpg files actually appearing on the stage. The MC I add them to does, but the external image doesn't.My problem is- I can't add the external images until they're completely loaded (or so it appears). The thumbnail BG I use is blank. So I know for a fact that the thumbnail BG isn't occluding the loaded thumbnails.

How do I draw a line across the USA starting in San Francisco in frame 1, moving through Kansas City in frame 5, and then extending to New York in frame 10. By frame 10 I'd like to see the whole line, representing the whole journey I took in my car over summer vacation.
I can make a "dot" do this in flash (ie without leaving a line trailing behind it) but I don't know how to make the line "grow" across the USA over time.

I am wonder what tools or options I can use in order to have an object look like it is being drawn out while you watch a flash movie.So far all I can think if is draw it piece by piece over a few keyframes, but that could look choppy and take a lot of time.
