ActionScript 3.0 :: Bitmap - Load From The Server And Not Be Embedded To The Swf
Sep 24, 2010
I have a bitmap and I want to load it externally. Since flash cannot understand the format when directly loading it from a server - I want to turn it into a PNG in Photoshop. Because Flash understands PNG. When importing the BMP to Flash stage/library it has an alpha channel and it works properly. When opening in Photoshop it is a flat bitmap without any transparency. The problematic bitmap itself is here: Is there anything I can do with it to turn it into a PNG or GIF that has alpha? I want it to load from the server and not be embedded to the swf.

I'm developing an app that currently is using Loader to get images from another server.This shouldn't currently work since we are still waiting for the owner of that server to put a crossdomain file in place.However, it does work -- sort of .
Loader can load the images fine, without an error.But then the app has a feature in which we are making a larger duplicate of the image to display in a sidebar, we do this in this manner:
var myBitmap:Bitmap = Bitmap(loader.content);
and when this runs we get a Flash player security error 2122, sandbox violation.So while I'm hoping all this will fix itself when the crossdomain.xml file is put in place,I'm confused as to why we only get the sandbox error when we make a Bitmap from the image, and not when we initially try to retrieve the image.
(Incidentally: is there a better way to make a "copy" of an image loaded by a Loader, and then change its width and height for simultaneous display in another part of the stage? I don't need to change its actual dimensions -- I just need to change its display width and height.)

I'm creating an AIR 3.0 app.
For a lot of my graphical assets I'm using the Flex embed metadata to embed bitmap objects as Classes and then instantiating them.
The problem is that it seems these never get garbage collected. I haven't found much info online but I've seen a couple of posts that seem to confirm this.
Anytime one of my classes gets instantiated that has these embedded assets, they always create new instances of the Bitmaps and BitmapDatas rather than reusing what's already in memory. This is a huge problem for memory. And I can't find any way of de-referenciong them or getting them to leave memory.
So the only solution I can think is to just load the graphics from disk rather than using the embed tag. But I'd rather not do this seeing as how when the app is packaged and installed, all of those graphcial assets will be on the end users computer rather than contained within the SWF.

I'm loading a jpeg image from a sub doamin. Image is loading fine initially..But when i try to take the bitmap it's not coming. Here, swf is in one subdomain,image is in one subdomain-these two under the same main domain (Note:bitmap came when I used the same domain for both swf and image). I used "crossdomain.xml" in the subdomain root.(ie; i pasted the xml file where the image exist). It's not working. And I tried like this also - I placed the "crossdomain.xml" file in the main domain root also.
I added in flash file
System.security.allowDomain("[URL]")
System.security.loadPolicyFile("[URL]");
My image is in [URL]
My swf is in [URL]

I created a swf embedded on a web document and hosted on our local server. I have no problem previewing and playing it on flash player 10 but whenever I attempted to play the same swf in flash player 9 I'm getting a popup security warning. I went ahead and registered it on the Adobe website but still with no success.

As I am getting more familiar with FMS and understanding it better with the help of the wonderful contributors here on this forum, I am now curious about players.Players such as Strobe and REOPS to be specific.Are players all SWFs that are embedded in a page? I have seen some players here on the Adobe website that are stand-alone smaller windows that appear over the page. How is this done?So Strobe and REOPS...are we talking SWF code that is editable? You can see I am quite new to this. I'm on a roll, however and wish to continue understanding and learning.

I am working on a prototype of a system that will take stills from an attached video camera, store them in an array, then pull them back from the array and animate them.
Thus far I've been able to create new bitmaps, put them in an array, and draw them to the stage.
I have the video source coming to the stage and I have been able to take stills.
The combined system, however, goes through the array, draws the bitmaps to the stage but they are not the sequence of stills. Instead, it is a set of bitmap objects that change every time I click the mouse to take a new still. My guess is that whatever I am doing wrong has caused the bitmapdata to remain dynamically linked to the video source or to be changed every time a new still has been taken.[code]...

I'm loading a bitmap with FileReference.load() and than dump the byteArray into a Loader object and than add that loader object to stage.The problem is that regardless if I load the loader into a Sprite or add it to the stage, neither the loader or the sprite don't have width or height. It's always 0. So I can't scale the image as I don't know it's dimensions

In Flash, the BitmapData object can be used to store bitmaps in RAM, you can later draw them to a MovieClip using the beginBitmapFill() method.
How do you load an external bitmap file (.jpg) into a BitmapData object?

I am having a problem loading a bitmap/graphic into the place of a movie clip using AS 2.0 on Flash CS3.You see, I am uploading an image into a library, for example, Bitmap1.jpg, and I upload another image to turn into a movie clip, for example, Bitmap2.jpg turns into Symbol 1.I place Symbol 1 onto the screen and I've been trying code after code and I'm not sure how to load Bitmap1.jpg in the place of Symbol 1 using the 'if statement'. I've tried the 'load' functions, but since I've just bought CS3 and I don't have Flash 8, a lot of the functions have changed.Here's an example of my code:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
if(Junior == "Stranger") {
loadMovie("Bitmap1.jpg")
}
Cut to the chase, I'm trying to load "Bitmap1.jpg" or my library name (Bitmap) into the place of Symbol 1 (my MovieClip) when Junior is equal to Stranger, using AS 2.0 on Flash CS3. This code doesn't work on CS3.

I have a Flash button which has a bitmap image. I want to load this bitmap image dynamically.
I was thinking ...
var ClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
ClipLoader.loadClip("img/img1.jpg",_root.mybutton_mc.mycontainer_mc);
However, it do not let me put actionscript 2 in frame 1 of buttons.

Randomly on Sunday night the FMS Admin Console which you can access via [URL] stopped working, as in it would not load. It times out and Firefox says 'Server Not Found' It was working fine on Sunday morning and has been doing for a year now, I rebooted the server and that did nothing. I have no idea why it will not load as the server runs fine and I can still stream and everything.

Example: a vendor returned a Chinese version of an SWF demo with a file size of 14,692kb. Some clients report load times up to 4 or 5 minutes and some time out.
The vendor claims they have embedded only the characters needed for the copy in the demo, however when we ran the SWF files through a decompiler we found embedded Chinese character sets with up to 21,000 glyphs (the entire Chinese alphabet, + characters in other alphabets like Arabic).
My question, would a 14.5 MB SWF file, with 2 sets of embedded Chinese fonts, each with glyph counts of 21,000+ (for a total glyph count of over 43,000), take several minutes to load from the web?

I wrote a program in C# that, when a user press a button, opens a new form containing an embedded flash object. The flash application needs the user to be logged in, so i added to the source something like
swf.SetVariable("__ses", sid);
This works fine for 2 user testing the application, while the third one can succesfully open one table, while all the others appear "black", just like if the loader can't get past the loading step.
