ActionScript 3.0 :: 'Slicing' Background Image Into Useable Objects?
Mar 9, 2011
I'm looking into doing the following :
I've got this 'map.png' that i'm using as a background image. The map shows a country with all the provinces/states/counties 'outlined' on it.
I'd like to generate the effect when you mouse-over or click on a province you get info on the selected province, maybe highlight it, or its outline.
The best way to do this would be making objects/MC's on top of the image ? Slice out parts of the image ?

I want to embed some video into my HTML page. As background I want to use big picture. And above it I want to insert loop video with (i.e.) walking man.So, can I embed video (without flash and any player controls) in page?Can I decode video with transparent background? Is there any codecs which support transparent background (alpha-channel)?

I am relatively new to Flash CS3 and i have been learning Action-script 3 over the past week. I have come quite a long way and i have made a site in flash but i just have a question.I have been using an image as my background and i am happy with the way flash automatically scales all the objects in my file but the background image does not scale. Is there a way to do this? I have found out things online which show me how to add auto-resizing to the background but this knocks off the flash auto scaling/resizing for everything else.

I have created a booklet in InDesign cs4 that includes page turn transitions. I have saved it as a SWF file and it works perfectly on my PC with the ability to sweep through the page turns. My issue is now, what type of file can I export the SWF file to so that I can view it on an iPad and am still able to have the page curls?

I am developing a website in flex. And in that, i am trying to set the background image of my application. like this: parentApplication.setStyle("backgroundImage", data.image_src);
From a different location.
My issue is that, the images that i have are small and hence they are being stretched when used as background images. I want to avoid that from happening. How can i do it?

I have a number of objects (represented as DisplayObjects) that I wish to blend with each other. However behind these objects there is a background that i do not want to involve in the blending. So basically I want to blend these objects with eachother and afterwards use the result of this blending as a new DisplayObject (for example to put it on top of a randomly colored background).
So what I have is:
var obj1:DisplayObject = getFirstObj();
var obj2:DisplayObject = getSecObj();
var background:DisplayObject = getBackground();
obj1.blendMode = BlendMode.ADD;
obj2.blendMode = BlendMode.ADD;
At first attempt I tried was putting these objects into a common DisplayObjectContainer hoping that blending mode would only be relative to all objects contained by the same DisplayObjectContainer, but this does not seem to be the case.
var objectsPool:Sprite = new Sprite();
objectsPool.addChild( obj1 );
objectsPool.addChild( obj2 );
addChild( background );
addchild( objectsPool );

I have a scrolling background and am trying to place an object on top of it dynamically. I can get the object(which is a picture of a tractor to appear over the background with the following statement attachMovie("tractor_mc","pic",2); however it locates it at the wrong position on the stage. Is there anyway that I can control where the object is dynamically placed on the stage ? im using Flash 8 and ActionScript 3.0

hi guys, i got this image i scaled down by .5. The user is then allowed to add objects to the image such as flowers that are sprites in the library. So basically, a jpeg that is 800 x 800 is down to 400 x 400 on the stage and the user is able to add objects to overlay the image.
i want to save the image with the flowers and objects back to its 800 x 800, how do i redraw this image using bitmapdata properly?

I ran into an odd problem a week ago that I haven't been able to fix. I'm new to Flash so sorry if this has been discussed but my research has turned up nothing. I'm using Flash Develop. I managed to duplicate the problem in a simple program: I set up one large bitmap for the background, not transparent. I then add another large bitmap on top of that, the second layer background, as a child of the main bg. This layer has transparency so you can see the bg through the trees and such. Then I stack a lot of sprites on top of each other, all with transparency. They can be children of the main bg or the second layer bg, doesn't matter. Where the transparency of the sprites overlap the second layer background disappears completely to reveal the main background (like a window around the sprite stack.) The bitmaps I'm using are from embedded png files.
I found that 23 transparent objects causes the 24th object and beyond to disappear. And it only happens when I have a mask set to the main background (a simple filled square for clipping the child sprites that move off-screen.) Also the problem goes away while the background is moving. My project features many objects near each other so the chance of this problem occurring is pretty high. Its not game-breaking but I'm new to flash and my project is nearly complete (and large) so I'm hoping there is something simple I can do to fix this.

I'm working on a tile based game, inspiredb by tutorials from the book "the essential guide to flash games". Please have a look at [URL] -- edit: by the way, the game idea is by no means mine, but i want to replicate the old game "sensitive" from the c64 [URL] for learning purposes I want to add shadows to all objects that stand in the water. However, since I want to keep my sprite count to a minimum, I have put all objects that don't do anything in a background bitmap. The best solution I can think of is to have:
1) a background bitmap (won't change during level)
2) a background shadows bitmap (won't change during level)
3) a sprite layer
4) and a sprite shadow layer at every screen, but this seems like a lot of work for just shadows.

I'm told that the following chunk of script will center the stage on resize, but not knowing much of anything about actionscript,
myListener = new Object(); myListener .onResize = function () { ... } Stage.addListener( myListener ); // later ... Stage.removeListener( myListener );

Is it possible to target and style the div that swfobject (2.1) creates to display flash content?
Basically I want to be able to set a background image to appear in a header div, and then load a tranparent swf file over the top using swfobject. But swfobject doesnt seem to have any reference to the div that it creates when displaying flash content.. only the alternate content div.

I'm trying to create a website with full screen background images (or possibly, a video) but don't know the best way to approach it. The Die Antwoord site does pretty much what I'm trying to accomplish. I'd also like to know how they can use such high resolution images. If I try to use a high res image, the file size is enormous.I also want to do is to be able to change the background image when a button is clicked. What is the best way to do that with large images? Another site that uses similar technology only with a video is the TV on the Radio site.

I've got a 800x600 document that has a panoramic picture scrolling horizontally and buttons in the image.
i've got this piece of code for AS2.0
[Code]...
Otherwise it is working all good, but I'd like it to stay put at the start. Right now it immidiately starts scrolling to right unless I move the mouse on top to stop it. So ye, i need to have it sitting still and only scroll when the mouse is at the edges of the document.
