Flash 9 :: Invert Mask - For Complex Camera Moving Animation?

Aug 26, 2008

I'm wanting to render this character as a flash animation (which i will create with swift 3d), could I make the walls of this corridor mask him so that only his head would only be seen as he walked through it, as below?I would later render the animation of walls as normal like so ..lkThrough.html (so that i would have a vector character walking through a bitmap corridor, you may ask why i want to do that, and that's because later on the character will be mainly animating on a still background and i'm trying to conserve download time for the Flash file).

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To "invert" A Mask

Feb 21, 2009

Normally a mask reveals whatever is within the layer below that is overlapped by whatever is on the mask layer. I'm trying to do the opposite. What I'm working on starts with a city street grid. I have an irregularly shaped mask that "grows" from the center, revealing some wireframe city buildings. At the same time I need to remove the portion of the street grid that is underneath the buildings, using the same irregular mask (well, a copy of it, but identical motion/position, growing out from the center). The relevant portion of the street grid is its own movieclip/layer - easy to mask or otherwise manage by itself.

It looks like there is no easy "invert mask" function (and why not, I ask - seems like it'd be pretty straightforward and certainly useful).I'm thinking I could start with a big rectangle and use my mask (at tiny "starting size") to punch a hole in it. Then I could scale the mask until the hole overlapped the street grid completely.

But the problem with that is, then I have this huge mask, and the street grid/city movieclip (which contains all the clips and masks that make up the buildings and street grid) resizes and repositions dynamically to fit the browser window size. The huge mask will change the size of the grid/city movieclip, which will change the way it resizes (basically, Actioscript will now think it's huge so it'll shrink it way down). Is there a way to have Actionscript "ignore" the size of the mask when determining the size and position of the movieclip?Or, perhaps there is a way to resize just the punched-out hole in the middle of the mask, and keep the outer rectangle the same size?How do people usually do this sort of thing - when they need to make something disappear via a "growing" mask?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Invert Mouse X And Y?

Jun 24, 2010

Im trying to make the cursor invert so when you go left on your mouse the mouse pointer goes right, basically the cursor goes the opposite way to your mouse. I have no idea where to start or even if its possible. I assume it be a case of hiding the original mouse pointer then using a MC of a pointer which has the inverted movement applied to it?? The inverted cursor also needs to be able to click a button that would put the cursor back to normal. Im using CS5 so either AS2 or 3

ActionScript 2.0 :: Invert Colors/channel Of A BitmapData Object?

Aug 1, 2007

reason is i'm copying this grayscale Perlinnoise smoke image and makig it such that the darker the color, the more transparent it is. (I'musingcopyChannel.RED/GREEN/BLUE->CopyChannel.ALPHA). But right now, it's the other way round at the moment (ie. the brighter the pixel, the more opaque it is.). I want it to be more transparent instead (inversely proportional), so if i could find simple & fast way invert the alpha channel, it would do me so much more good. (I need a fast method...performance is critical!)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Alpha Mask - Area Of The Loader Outside Of The Mask Will Visible When The Mouse Is Down

Sep 10, 2010

I have a startDrag function set up on a loader and mask that when the mouse is down on the loader it drags, when not it doesn't. There is also 2 buttons that control whether mask1 or mask2 is used. What i would like however is when the mouse is down - the area of the loader outside of the mask is visible but only by about 10/20% alpha, that way the user can see where all the image is while dragging. Is this possible? Full code can be seen below and i have attached the zip with the .fla file:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Scriptable Mask - Large Mask Behind The Whole Of Flash Site?

Aug 19, 2003

what i am doing is to make something along the lines of the "scriptable mask" tutorial Inigo was kind enough to put up.My idea is to have a large mask behind the whole of my flash site, this masks a colour image with a black & white one (nothing tricky). The image I am using is actually 5 separate images combined, and each is a pic of certain parts of the site.I also have a very basic set of buttons along the bottom... each corresponding to each section.

All I want is to set it up so that when I mouse over the buttons, the _x of the mask moves to correspond with the correct image... really very basic... or so I thought .If anything it should be easier to do than what is in Inigo's tut (where he uses the _x of the mouse to move the mask)... i just cant seem to get it to work with a nice easing effect (its easy to get the mask to simply snap to each coordinate, but I need it to smoothly move).

Create Own Mask Around A Jpg Image By Drawing Around It On The Mask Layer

Dec 4, 2009

maybe point me towards a better way to mask. png file is way too big. I have been using the mask layer option to create my own mask around a jpg image by drawing around it on the mask layer. There has to be a fetter and faster way to do this. Is it possible to maybe have a specific color range have an alpha value of 0. Similar to green screening whereas If I put the item I want to clip on a green background flash will auto take out the green for me. and by auto I mean action script maybe. I think this can be done but im not finding it.

how are these guys clipping these images [URL] they have the movie clips set up where the black background on the 3 layers of shoes is getting masked out. When I go into the shoe movie clips I see there is a black background but it just disappears when I go back to main timeline.

Using A Transparant PNG As A Mask?

Jul 1, 2009

I'm trying to use an irregularly shaped PNG as a mask but the mask is just coming out as a straight rectangle, not taking into account the transperancy of the image.
I've found many people complainng about this across the internet, and it is apperantly solvable, I just haven't been able to figure it out.
 
I've tried Trace Bitmap to vectorize the shape, since it's a single solid shape, but I'm getting weird results: [URL] I cant figure out why those lines are appearing across my mask. There's nothing there in the actual traced image, I've even ran the eraser over the affected sections to make sure.

2- now, thats a funny one, i can make mask to make thing appear in an animation fashion style, no probleme as with any Adobe program... however unlike all other Adobe programs, it seem i am unable to find HOW make the exact reversed result... I want to make thing disappear without using the alpha channel, because i want to make it in an animation style way. It is to use for a sub-menu, where when you click the button to open the sub-menu, you see it appear nicely and in an animated way. But when you click again the button to close it, or once you picked your choice, it close the sub-menu in the exact reverse way it was open...
