I am trying to create a Photo Editor using Flash One of its features is to change the Opacity of the Image. Now my problem is how to change the Opacity of a bitmapData and save the image so that the resultant image has a changed Opacity.
View 2 RepliesI have created a button with an instance name of 'ClickMe' and also five buttons each with thier own instance name (B1-B5). I want to change their opacity to zero onclick preferably as a tween from where they are now in opacity (100%) to the zero. I need some assistance with this. I know it involves importing classes and creating a function. I also believe I can control the set of 5 buttons with iteration.
ClickMe.onPress = function() { for (var i=1; i<=5; i++) { ['B1_'+i].changeopacity = MyMC!['B1_'+i].changeback; }
I know this isn't how to do it, but is something along the lines of what I need.
I have a scrollbar that I grabbed off a resources site. (code below)I want it so that whenever I put the cursor on the scollbar to move it that the graphical information under the scrollbar comes on (either reveal or opacity to 100%). At the moment the little thumbnails under the scrollbar are on all the time and area bit of a distraction (they are meant to assist in the use of the scrollbar by minimising searching behaviour).[code]

I'm trying to take a 'snapshot' of a movieclip that i've got on the stage with "BitmapData" and then starting a "draw()" command on it. I'm able to get it drawing.. however.. it only takes the things from (0,0).( the upper left corner of the movieclip. Doing a trace on "BitmapData.rectangle" gives me it's X and Y coordinates .. and it's width and height..
How do I change the X and Y locations of the BitmapData for it to start the drawing from? As I have some stuff on the negative side of x.
I'm blitting a map onto the screen with tiles.. and the source of these tiles are BitmapData objects.I know you can change the alpha of a bitmap.. but I'm not too sure if it can be done on the BitmapData object itself.I want some tiles to have less alpha than others. Applying the alpha to the Bitmap.. makes everything on the current screen have an alpha.. but I only need one tile of it..

btw, first I used assigned thumbContainer as the mc argument (outside the loadThumbs() function) and it worked but not exactly what I wanted... because I thought it is supposed to update when the movieclip is animated but it actually didn't... when I use a scroller, only the thumbs that are first loaded to the stage get the reflection..
I've been using BitmapData.copyPixels() to draw graphics onto a canvas (Bitmap).I need to rotate the resulting graphics without the use of draw() because it's vastly slower.How can I rotate the target graphic? I'm assuming that there might be a formula or library that I can use which will first reorganize the pixels that make up a graphic based on an origin (point) and radians.I'm pretty certain that I'm not capable of creating such logic, so if there are any known libraries that do this, that would be awesome.I'd like to achieve something similar to XNA's SpriteBatch.Draw() method, which accepts rotation as its 5th argument.

View 3 RepliesSuppose I have an image in the background with a white box over the image. What I am trying to do is get the box to oscillate it's _alpha property while diminishing to zero. Producing a 'twinkling' effect. I have the actionscript on the box_mc in an onClipEvent (enterFrame) function. Really there will be a lot of these boxes so the oscillation would have to be random.The code I have right now, which just lowers the opacity at a random rate - no oscillation is below:
onClipEvent (load) { h = Math.random();}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (this._alpha>0) { this._alpha -= h;
}}
I have buttons inside/on window01/mc that are still active/clickable when the opacity is 0, I basically have a area on my website that if you click it opens the window corresponding to the button. how do I stop this? I only want the buttons to work when window01 is opacity 100. I'm not a pro at AS so please if you reply, walk me through it a bit or edit my code. [URL] just click in the blank black area below the nav bar and the window will appear. The normal way to get to this window is click products than the buttons.
Code: Select allimport gs.TweenLite;
btn06.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f2);

could someone point me in the right direction of how to pulse the opacity property. Math.sin on something and offset and scale the wave to run from 0-1 ?

View 3 RepliesI'm working with a Flash (CS5) presentation, so I have a "Next Slide" button on my app. Sometimes, I want to be able to fade in certain elements when I hit "Next Slide".My current way of doing this:
Create a MovieClip from a Rectangle with an opacity tween from 100 to 0 (with ActionScript to stop() at first frame).Copy and paste the MovieClip over the place where I want it to fade in, and give the instances a unique name.Add actionscript to the relevant keyframe of the slide with just rectangle1.play().This works fine when running. The only disadvantage is that once I have one of these rectangle MovieClips on my page, I can't see what's behind it, making it annoying to design the presentation.
I have 22 rollover buttons that are a tint. On the rollover, I want the button (75px square) to disappear. On the rollout, I want it to display it's original state.I can't use visibility because it causes a flicker. When I use alpha it resets the opacity to 100% regardless of the number I set it to - e.g. rollover {button.alpha = 0;} / rollout {button.alpha = 50;} still results in a solid box.

View 14 RepliesI'm trying to "fade" out a movie clip when I click on another movie clip. I know how to change the visibility to false or alpha to 0, but I want it to do this gradually rather then instantly.This is the code I currently have placed on the movieclip I'm using as a button, I am only trying to fade the SolidPurple, everything else is working exactly like I want it to...
Code:

this._parent.holderGreen.attachMovie("PathGreen","PathGreen2",1);
this._parent.SolidBlue._visible = false;
this._parent.SolidOrange._visible = false;

(NOTE: I often mix up weather opacity means "fully visible" or "fully invisible". Is Opacity the same as alpha, or the opposite? Just to be safe, I'm using the word "transparency" instead.) Let's say you ask for a color, and I hand you 0x52BD86
Assuming you were wanting a "regular" color, I just handed you a nice little bluish color. However, assuming you wanted a "32 bit" color (that is, including an alpha channel) I just handed you a completely transparent color (0x0052BD86 to be precise), so it really doesn't matter what the visible color was, it's still going to be invisible.That's why AS3 BitmapData has separate methods "setPixel" and "setPixel32".
Would it not be better to have the first 8 bits be a "transparency" value, so instead of 0 being invisible and 255 fully visible, flip them, making 0 completely visible, and 255 completely transparent? That way, if I hand you 0x52BD86, you can basically assume I mean completely visible. Then we won't even need separate functions for 32 bit colors. But, this probably goes deeper than AS3, and likely would mean changing the way color is treated throughout the last couple of years, or? Is there any reason they created the alpha bits like that?
I am having an issue with using BitmapData.draw(stage). I am getting the following error:
SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/bla...bla...bla.swf cannot access null. No policy files granted access. Here is a portion of my code:
var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(2800, 2100); bd.draw(stage);//this is where the error happens All of the files referenced (.xml/.jpg/.swf) are located in the same local folder as the main .swf. How do I get around this error? The main objective is to print the stage using PrintJob(). I am using Flash Professional CS5.5 and publishing to Flash 10.0/10.1. Let me know if I need to supply any more info.
I want to have an object start off with an alpha of 0 but then opacity in to 100% later on the timeline BUT I have to use Actionscript.
