URL...I'm thinking of haveing the dots move on a path (the line) clockwise. now I wonder: is it do-able in actionscript?I mean, can I set the line to be a path for the dots in actionscript? I'm thinking of something similar to the setMask() function..
View 2 RepliesSo, I have a simple connect the dots game working by drawing lines. The line is drawn when clicking the right dot.However I want to be able to let the user be able to see the line and the line moves to any dot but only draws if clicking the right one.
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("line",1);
line.lineStyle(2,0x000000,100);
dot_array = ["d1", "d2", "d3", "d4", "d5", "d6", "d7", "d8", "d9", "d10","d11","d12","d13","d14"];

I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.
View 11 RepliesI've almost got a bit of flash finished, The .swf so-far is here: [URL]. For some reason the file won't attach but the important bit of code I have so-far is below. I need to make a line to literally 'connect the dots', each of which is one end of a movieclip, I know it needs to boil down to ' line x,y, to (movieclipname)x,y, but cannot work it out!
time.onChanged = function() {
if(time.text.length == 4) {
var hours:Number = parseInt(time.text.substr(0,2),10);
hours *= 60;
var minutes:Number = parseInt(time.text.substr(2,2),10);

I'm trying to plot data from several entities over time. Each entity will have its own line, so there will be several lines. Each line will be connected, but it's important that dots are drawn to represent data.
I'm aware of the linked bar chart, but at initial inspection, I can't seem to find one that offers me the ability to draw the dots. Anyone knows which library has this? I'm open to PHP, Flex, degrafa, whatever else that gets the job done.
I have the raster of dots on white background. I would like it when I DragOver each dot it becomes white so it looks like you are actually drawing white line by erasing the dots. Ive somehow found the way how to do it by making it transparent when I rollover. But it doesnt work with dragover. How to do it only when I hold down the mouse button and drag my mouse over the dots?
This is the script assigned to MC with one black dot (I copied this MC with one dot into another MC and multiplied it to have the raster):
this.onRollOver = function () {
this._alpha = 0;
} this.onPress = function () {
this._alpha = 50;
}
I've tried also this, but it doesn't work:
var erasepoint = false;
this.onMouseDown = function(){erasepoint = true;}
this.onMouseUp = function(){erasepoint = false;}
this.onRollOver = function () {
if(erasepoint){
this._alpha = 0;
}}
how I draw a line through a path line? An example I have a movieClip that is a pencil and it is moving through a path line, now I want to draw the line that the pencil draw.

the same class is passed to the mxmlc compiler in SWF library as a symbol linkage class and again in a source-path. But the compiler uses the definition from the source-path so creating new instance of that class won't create new instance of the library symbol. How do I tell the compiler to prefer the definition linked to the symbol (the one dfrom SWC)?
I have my design assets in an FLA file and they are linked to classes (e.g. [URL]. Then I export those assets to a SWC library and pass it to the compiler. Now when I create an instance of the class (new MyAsset();) it will be a new instance of the library object.
But there are other classes too in the source folder (e.g. "com.myproject.model.*" so I need to pass the source folder to the compiler too. And that is the problem, now the compiler will use the MyAsset.as definition from the source path, not from the SWC where it is assigned to the library object so if I create new instance of MyAsset now it won't duplicate the library object.

I've been slowly teaching myself AC3 - largely using examples from online tutorials and a collection of books I've bought. I can get simple exercises to work, but I'm losing my way when things get complicated.
For example - packages - I am unclear on how these work and interact with my main programming stream. Now I'm getting to the point where this question seems to be coming up all of the time. But, for some reason, I just can't seem to connect the dots.
I have drawn a dotted line for this illustration:how to animated the dots to give the impression that data in this network line is going from left to right?

View 1 RepliesI have an IK chain of 3 dots. I would like to put random movement on one of the dots 'pt1' so that is randomly bounces around my screen while the other 2 dots follow - something like a snake.

I'm making this interactive map. It's made from tiles of dots, each turned on or off at run time depending on where the user has scrolled to. The tiles are 9x9 dots and I make the map from an array which is 20x40 in size. The swf then shows what is visible as you scroll over that map with a window which is smaller than a 3x2 tile space. The problem I have is that the dots which fall outside of the proposed viewing window still exist so when your mouse hovers over them, even though they're hidden, they still interact.
Here's a picture: Is there some way to mask the interaction of those dots? Each one's a movie clip. I can hide them visually but that's no good, people can still click on them then without even knowing they're there. I've tried loading the exported SWF into a movieClipLoader but that just automatically spills over like this again.
just playing around with stuff and i was wondering if i were to make a small internal site... how i'd go about making it so when you enter your password that it came up with those black dots instead of the letters?
