I am going nuts! I have a canvas which I am trying to add a background image to. I am not setting the Y position, but after I add it to the canvas it always starts about 40 px down. If I trace the Y position it still says 0, even after a timer. I have tried to move it to the parent canvas and got the same results.
View 1 RepliesI am new to flex, and do not know how to add an image (or other ui component) to canvas, so user can select it (and see that it's selected), also I want to add a possibility for example to click backspace and remove selected image from scene. How to do that?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to skin a canvas with an image (which is essentially a custom border for the canvas). I've been trying the backgroundImage style as well as the borderSkin style. I can't get the image to scale to the full size of the canvas though. I was wondering what the best way to go about this is.[code]...

I am trying to load a BitmapImage from an embedded source image and add this to a UIComponent. I am attaching the code that I have below. I have not been able to get this to work.
var bitmap:BitmapImage = new BitmapImage();
bitmap.source ="@Embed('sample.jpg')";
var graphic:Graphic = new Graphic();
graphic.addElement(bitmap);
thumbHolder.addChild(graphic);
When I run this I dont get an error, but no image appears in thumbHolder (My UIComponent).
I am adding DisplayObjects to a Canvas using
ContentContainer.addChild(c);
Where ContentContainer is my Canvas object and c is the DisplayObject I have created at run-time. Some of these DisplayObjects also have children of there own which are added at run-time prior to the DisplayObject being added to the Canvas.
I then need to iterate over all the children of ContentContainer but the first time I do this, it says that ContentContainer has no children (i.e., ContentContainer.numChildren = 0). If I do it again tho then it is fine and returns the correct number of children. Is there something I need to call to get ContentContainer to recalculate how many children it has?
I currently am trying to add a custom class which subclasses UIComponent to both a tree and a canvas, but when I try to re-order the tree by dragging I get this error:[code]When I do not add the UIComponent to the canvas, this error does not occur, anyone have any knowledge as to why this happens?

View 1 RepliesI've a custom component where I do some graphics (e.g draw a line) and dynamically add a subcomponent (e.g a label) to it.
If I base the component off Group (which is recommended as per docs since its a spark component) then when I dynamically add a label the graphics part disappears.
However if I base it off Canvas this doesn't happen.
Why is that the case?
Here is the code.

I am trying to make a flash application that can save (to the user's local hard drive) a screen shot of the canvas (or more accurately part of it).I've dabbled with Quasimondo's Bitmap Exporter which did some funky stuff to render an image, ship it to a php script on the server, and bounce it back to the client. But not only is that inefficient it also has two other major flaws:
1) it's written in actionscript 2 so I can't use any actionscript 3 abilities.
2) it breaks as soon as one of the images on the stage is defined as a variable brought in through $_GET rather than hard coded. (the image comes in fine but then the rendered finished product is a blank white image)
I'm creating a flash fun thing where you dress up a character by just dragging and dropping little images, everything is working fine.
I want to add an option to save the image you have created, I can do this but the problem is you have to set a movie clip to capture, the thing i want to capture is a few movie clips layered on top of each other(the finished character).[code]...
I have an Image nested inside a Canvas.
<mx:Canvas>
<mx:Image source="@Embed(source='assets/library.swf', symbol='Waves')" />
</mx:Canvas>
I'd like the Image not to overflow the bounds of Canvas. But when I set width and height on the Canvas, my Image disappears. Canvas also doesn't seem to respect horizontalScrollPolicy.
Seems easy enough, but as the official Flex documentation is down at the moment, I thought I'd turn to SO.

this is the code for 3d rotation [code]i want to rotate the image after dropping them in the canvas.i am able to rotate them in the panel.
View 1 RepliesI have an image loaded from an url and added to canvas as child. Then I am drag and dropping another image on it which also uses the senocular transform so the image can be transformed on the canvas. I have coded in such way that the transform handles shows up only after it's dropped on canvas. The image shows up correctly. But I am trying to save the result image (that is the main image and the dropped image on top of it), I only end up with the main image that was loaded earlier. The dropped image doesn't show up.
Below is the code for handleDrop() that is fired on dragDrop event and prepares the final image.

I want to dynamically add different items to thumbContent canvas and use scroller canvas to scroll. I see than the height of thumbContent bigger than 7977 it truncate from scrolling. So - I see the scroller canvas with empty space on top. Then I scroll to bottom - I see the content of thumbContent and at bottom scrolling I see empty space too.
I know that the question may seem very easy. I am trying to display an image on canvas.I need to do it in AS, and also I need to locate image in specific coordinates.

View 1 RepliesI have an app wer i drag and drop images onto a canvas and then move them on the canvas to arrange them appropriately. After that i shud be able to click on those images and draw connectors between them as the user seems required.

View 1 RepliesI need the exact simple application but the ability to choose a background image from a file on the server as the canvas and I want to save the created image on a server file instead of on the client machine. The ability to change the pencil drawing size would be an additional plus. I work with php and mysql so I would like to use them to store the file parameters, even as a blob in mysql, along with some additional user (server) defined variables (I can do the php/mysql side if I can get the file there, I understand there is an swf to png ByteArray class that might be able to save on server. The project is for an opensource group so the final product would need to remain as such, I would be able to pay for the modifications mentioned above.

View 1 RepliesI made a program in Flex that uses the actionscript 3 drawing api. I am drawing on a Canvas and on every mouseUp event I save the bitmapData in an Image component and clear the the Canvas. That works great, but the problem appears if I want to add a background to the paint that was drawn.
Here are the mxml components:
Code:
<mx:Canvas id="_backgroundColor" width="100%" height="100%" x="0" y="0" />
<mx:Image id="_image" x="0" y="0" mouseEnabled="false" />
<mx:Canvas id="_paper" x="0" y="0" />
And here it is the function I have on the Canvas (_paper) mouseUp
Code:
private function onSaveModifications(evt:PaperEvents):void{
var bmpData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(this._paper.width,this._paper.height,true,0x00FFFFFF);
bmpData.draw(this._paper);
this._image.source = new Bitmap(bmpData);
this._paper.graphics.clear()
}
I want when I set the _background Canvas background color to see it, but I cannot because the Image component(_image) where I save the bitmap is masking it.
This is how I set the background
Code:
this._background.setStyle("backgroundColor",0xff0000)
Do you know how can I make the pixels of the bitmap that weren't drawn to be transparent?
i have a set of images which i've converted to mcs and have given them all different instance names. The first image motion tweens to the right of the screen via actionscript and then the next one will motion tween from the bottom of the screen to the top and then the image after that will go to the right of the screen and next one goes to to the top, and so on. I have this actionscript for the first image,
[Code]...
I need the next image to start motion tweeing up to the top of the screen right when the first image starts fading out. Then when the second images starts fading out the next image is already motion tweening to the right of the screen and so on. Once every image has run through its tween everything repeats. Is there any way of doing this?
My artist drew a beautiful island but it's 5000 in width. We scroll it as it's for a Virtual World. - it's in layers and we scroll the different layers at different speeds. Flash documentation states that the limit is 2880 BUT it does work in the player i.e.: you can see the full island but it does run a little slow.
Should I
a. Create a smaller island of 2880 which is a shame as I would have to get rid of a lot of good stuff
b. Split it into two images and dynamically connect them with code.
Also, I have different layers scrolling at different speeds which would make things more difficult to look natural.
I have created a short animation in Flash CS4 which has one button with a URL link. the button shows up on frame 217, and on that frame I added the following action script:

Basically I want to go to frame2 when the cursor leaves the canvas. The code below contains no errors when tested but it still does not work.
[Code]...
We know that the function gotoAndStop(frame2); works in multiple situations which means the first 3 line is fine. I don't know if the problem is the MOUSE_LEAVE event or this.stage which i suppose is the identifier for the canvas. I sure that there must be an alternative code for the identifier this.stage or the whole code. Any solution on how to fire the given function in the event when the cursor leaves the canvas?
I need to create a gallery to load images and display them. This part is fine:

But, I need a small twist. A transition image i.e. loading image should be displayed while the the image is being loaded.
