View 2 RepliesHow do I make a line dotted programatically? A line can be made dotted if drawn in the IDE, so it's got to be possible, but there doesn't seem to be anything in the Graphics (lineStyle) class to allow for this.

View 5 RepliesI've tried to incorporate Flash seamlessly into a website and the results are pretty clean, but when people actually click a button on the SWF, a grey dotted line appears around the sides of the Flash.This is in Firefox 3 only, but that's what the client uses.
View 7 RepliesAfter some search and reading the Graphics class document, I can't find a way to specify the line style of a line. I mean whether the line is a solid one or a dotted one.

I am using actionscript to place every thing on the flash dynamically. However, when I was finished I noticed a tiny little bug that I just can't fix. Whenever the stage.height is an even number one of the objects is misaligned by half a pixel. When ever the stage.height is odd it is perfect. See images below for what I mean. Here is the related actionscript (called upon load and resize):

View 2 Repliescreate those mix and match things that you often see on those fashion websites (You would select what variety of clothing you would want by clicking through the different items until you get the combination that you want, and then submit that choice to the store).

I followed the 3D Carousel tutorial from gotoandLearn http:[url].... I was able to put in my images and change the features to how I want, but for the life of me can't figure out how to make the thing auto rotate.
var tw:GTween = new GTween(container, 0.8, {rotationY:targetRotation}, ease:Exponential.easeOut});
tw.autoRotation = true;
But when I added it it just gave me errors and the carousel would not load.

View 14 RepliesI'm trying to make a popup alert modal window thing with an external class. I have a simple swf set up with just some random sample text, a rectangle, and a button. What I want to happen is for the "alert" class to initialize upon startup of the swf and then when I click the button (instance: btn), the alert will show up. If I get rid of all AS in the swf and set alert as the document class, it shows up just fine, so I think it should be working, but for some reason I get this instead when I try the button function:

I have found some examples on how to do this, but they are all for straight lines, not for a freehand line.

movieclip.somefunction = b2._x;
and below is what I'm using...

I keep feeling like this is just a case of not RTFM hard enough, but I'm just not seeing the answer. Is there a way to use AS3 to dynamically set leading in a dynanmic text field?I've found the getLineMetrics function, which returns a TextLineMetrics instance. This instance can tell me what my leading already is, but when I try to change the value I see nothing change onscreen. Likewise, I don't see any setLineMetrics function to go along with the text field. Is there just no way to change it?
View 4 RepliesI am using FlashBuilder 4 and doing a simple application in flex. I am displaying a graph with 10 random values and based on the values I am trying to change the itemrenderer dynamically like CandlestickItemRenderer and BoxItemRenderer. Now my requirement was, if the values are > 10. I want to show my chart with CandlestickItemRenderer else i want to show the remaining spots as BoxItemRenderer. I am failing to do this. Either I am getting all the shapes as BoxItemRenderer or CandlestickItemRenderer. I am sending the code as a text file along with this.
