View 1 Repliesi,m trying to apply a blur filter to the entire stage except one MovieClip!
(You know thouse cool login types )
I gived it a thought and the only ideea i got so far is to put all the content on stage in some movie clip and apply on it the blur filter.
I am creating one movieclip function to use filter inside it. Scenario is I have alert_win (movieClip to show alerts). By default I disable its visibility and then call on some function. Now everything works fine except one thing. I want to draw blur effect on loaded background under that movie clip "alert_win". How can I blur the whole stage except loaded movieclip? Also "alert_win" movieClip is dragable. And on close button of that movie clip I am removing its visibility off.
Here is my code.
_root.alert_win._visible = false;
if(System.capabilities.screenResolutionX > 1024){
import flash.filters.*;
var dropShadowropShadowFilter = new DropShadowFilter(2, 45, 0x000000, 0.3, 3, 3, 1, 10);
_root.alert_win.filters = [dropShadow];
[Code] .....
In this game I dynamically load 9 random pictures onto the stage. They all start off with maximum blur. The idea is that when the user hears a sentence the pictures gradually lose their blur. The sooner the correct picture is clicked on, the higher the score. My problem is, I can't stop the tween when the user clicks on a picture. I've tried it successfully on a much simpler fla, where the images are already on the stage and not loaded from an external source.
Here's my extracted code - the source fla is way too long to attach.
Actionscript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.Strong;
import flash.filters.*;
import mx.controls.Loader;
var totalBlur:Number = 100;//100 is maximum blur,

Would it be possible to take a screenshot of the stage and its contents?
furthermore would it be possible to make the bitmap distort so it transitions downward something like this? [url]...
I am looking for some help on a specific effect. I was pretty good in the old days in flash but I have fallen behind badly and the new action script and such is making my head spin a bit. The effect I am looking to do is like the FETblur,first one on the page, [URL]...
View 1 RepliesI have added some movie clips to the stage using addChild method on Some Mouse Events.Now on an event say Mouse Double Click I want to clean the stage.I checked the Stage class from reference it does not have any method called clear.Neither I have stored the references of the objects, so that i can clear them using removeChild()
View 1 RepliesCan a finished flash file be resized.
Stage is at 1684 x 1322 animated map operated by buttons in a static key located outside of map border, all on stage. Map also pans/zooms.
Two scenarios:-
1) resize stage and all contents down to a different size.
2) resize the animated map down but more so than the static key (sits outside the map) which should remain readable.
Is it possible to programatically export the contents of the stage to a jpg format? The goal is generating a starfield from a Photoshop png object over a background created in Photoshop inspired by van gogh starry night, then the result is exported in jpg of select sizes 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1040.
That can be downloaded from a browser or emailed for use as wallpaper
I am trying to print a snapshot of the contents of a movieclip on the stage...this snapshot is stored in a bmp...then the bmp is attached to a movieclip which is rotated 90 degrees to fit on the page in landscape fashion...so the user doesn't have to alter their printer settings...however when I do mc.rotation = -90; or mc.rotation -= 90; the printout on the page is the bmp sliced diagonally in half...and one half isn't showing...when I tried +90 it worked, but the mc wasn't placed correctly on the page...I also tried +270, and that produced the half cut diagonal bmp again...here is my print code..

I have a Flash CS4 document and I am attempting to resize the stage to accomodate its current contents.When I do so, the stage becomes *much larger* than the apparent contents, and I am trying to figure out why. I have literally examined every frame of the animation, and selected every individual object to see if the selection bounds indicate a rogue "large object"...but none indicate this...what sort of things about the contents might cause this that I am missing?

View 3 RepliesI loaded a swf from external. using loader class. But if i check with the width and height of the loader is differes from loader.contentLoaderInfo.width.
loader.width // 1250;
loader.height // 750;
loader.contentLoaderInfo.width // 750;
loader.contentLoaderInfo.height //420;
From this statement i came to know the loader gets the width of all hidden objects, which are already outside of the stage area. But now I need to increase the size of the stage contents only..
I have built a simple Flash application that will be presented using a projector, the application will show messages in the form of questions that will come from a simple flat-file text file or XML file.
In addition to this I would also like to be able to add my own messages using a simple HTML form.
I've been looking around the web for some resources, but have been struggling to find what I am looking for. The basic idea is that the flash application will loop through these different messages from the XML, but then when a user types in a message that will also appear within these messages. Think of it as a sort of dynamic tag cloud.
I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.
I've searched every possible actionscript forum for this and i cant seem to find it. How can i create an "area" of blur which blurs everything beneath it?Like some kind of masked blur effekt?
View 0 Repliesi want to know how did the creator of otradesign accomplish the effect in his site like the menu and the main contents change size and the menu position according to the size of main contents.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to do this as a bit of a transition. It's always the same movieclip.I just want to give it a duration, actually the same duration as something else I have going on, so I can reuse the variable "fadeDuration"Then I just want to set the maximum blur amount.I have no idea how to go about this. I found two things online, but one looked to be using a plugin, and the other was missing all class definitions and probably asuming you knew which parts were declared at other spots.
View 1 RepliesI have a short TEXT that I turned into a symbol, it is a MovieClip on the stage. I applied a preset motion of blur fly in to it and it does fly in but does not blur. I tried to use the motion editor to increase a blur to 255 but even when I add it on the initial keyframe, there is NO blur.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to blur the edges of a movieClip, and only the edges? If I use the blur filter, It blurs the entire image, not just the edges.
Basically, I have a flv file within a movieClip, and I need the edges of the video to look feathered.
I'm not that great with Actionscript 3.0, so naturally I have an hurdle to leap.
I using the 3D Carousel from flashcomponents.net and I need to figure out how to get the images blur when they are not the front focal on the Carousel. I tried an onRelease (which works to un-blur it), but I didn't know what else to pair it with so when I click on another object it blurs and goes to the back. I don't want it to blur when I roll off, only when another object is clicked.
I have text that I would like to come in to the stage from the side, but I would like it to be a horizontal blur like it is fast, then unblur to a sharp text. Is this something that I can do in all within Flash?

View 1 RepliesI have created a video for my flash application, convert it into a flv file.Now, I have imported it into flash in a layer, then I have created a new layer where I would yo place a mask with gaussia blur. You ca see example in the pic.I draw a mask into flash, converted it into a movieclip and assign to it a gaussian blur from the filter panel.
