ActionScript 3.0 :: Checking The Pixels Of A Swf File?
May 26, 2010
I have a swf file that's (for example) 500px wide, however, the viewing area (meaning the viewable content) of the swf is 300. The other 200px is masked out. If I try to align the viewing area, then it doesn't work because the alignment is based on a 500px width, not 300px. Normally, I'd just do a little math to make the 200px adjustment, but in my case, I don't know what the size of the actual viewing area is (because the swf is being loaded dynamically). Is there a way I can check color of the pixels, or check to see if there is some type of transparency occurring at a certain point?

so instead of the pixels being dissolved, the pixels being added? :
ActionScript Code:
var Anim:TransitionManager = new TransitionManager(blackbox);
Anim.startTransition({type:PixelDissolve, direction:Transition.OUT, duration:1, easing:None.easeOut, xSections:35, ySections:35});
basically what i would like is the end point to be the start point and the start point the end point.

I have a swf file that loads into my main movie, and within that swf there is a masked image that i would like to scale using zoom in and out buttons and also by using a slider bar.However i cant find any tutorials that will allow me to combine the two.I have used the following code for the buttons. Which seems to work ok but i would like it to be a little smoother. (using speed or some sort of easing??)
ActionScript Code:
zoomPlus.onRelease = function(zoomIn) {
if (test_shirt.shirt._xscale == 400 && test_shirt.shirt._yscale == 400) {[code]....
but for this code it keeps shrinking my initial object down to 10 pixels by 10 pixels..

I have a movie clip called column1_mc. when I click a button I need to move the movie clip in incremental moves consisting of 30 pixels.
column1_mc._y = 30;
Does not work because that is giving a _y coordinate.For example.I need to make the movie clip jump to _y 300 but make 10x30 pixel incremental jumps. Moving 10 times 30 pixel jumps.

how to retrieve information about size (in pixels) of loaded FLV file? Video object returns 2 pairs of parameters (width,height) which are useless because returns always parameters passed in constructor of Video() object. Another pair is (videoWidth,videoHeight) which is always (0,0). I gave up...
I need this information to scale proportionally video clip to size of area designed to display this video.

I want to use an external actionscript file for a set of variables for a movie I'm working on.
However, as I cannot guarantee that the external file would be available (it's for our sales reps to use on their own laptops) is there a way of testing for the #included file?
My idea is that the integrated script looks for the external file: if it finds that file, it is used. If the external file is unavailable, the internal script defaults to its own variables.

I am currently writing a site and one of the things it does is read variables from a database (by using the following code to access a php file which does the database lookup): loadVariablesNum ("loadvariables.php", 0, "POST"); This works perfectly, however following this I load a number of images based on the variables that are returned. i can't work out how to put an eventlistener, or something similar, so i can tell when loadvariables.php has finished loading. Then i can just load the relevant images in the oncomplete section (or the equivalent).

in AS3 to check if a file exists before loading it. There was not very much about so I wrote these classes to do it. There are two classes, the FileLoaderUtils and the UtilEvent. the FileLoaderUtils has the function doesFileExist(url:String) and when called the class uses the URLStream class to attempt to load the file. If the file exists a UtilEvent.FILE_EXISTS event is dispatched. If the URL is incorrect or the file doesn not exist a UtilEvent.FILE_NOT_FOUND event is dispatched.

if I set the stage to be 800 px X 800 px, it does not appear square, neither does holding shift + drawing a rectangle. However, drawing an oval and holding shift seems to create a circle(though it could be I can't notice it because it's too small). Is there some way to make these appear square?

I'm trying to get my program to detect when certain pixels (not shapes) have been hit but don't know what sort of code to use for "reading" pixels. I read about the getPixel method, but it seems that's only for bitmap images?If it helps, I'm trying to put it into use with hitTest, with specific pixels rather than shapes in general.

Is there any way of forcing Flash 8 to use full pixels like photoshop?for instance. I want a button on X: -140 & Y: -30. This is the way I'm used to in photoshop but in Flash you can use (X: -140.5). It takes so much time to remove all these half pixels.

I imported and .png (bitmap) and converted it to symbol however when I place it on stage and look at it the corners (marker with red, edit: basically all the corners are somewhat incorrect) appear somewhat ugly, however when I zoom in to 200% I see that everything is correct. I'm also sure that when importing the .png image the pixels were correct. Why is it so and how to fix it?

i'm using the following code to ease mc's
PHP Code:
MovieClip.prototype.easingY = function(toY){ this.onEnterFrame = function(){ this._y -= (this._y-toY)/3; if(this._y > toY-4 && this._y < toY+4){ this._y = toY; delete this.onEnterFrame } } }
now i have to provide a Y position to move to...is it possible to change this code so that instead of providing a Y position i give it a amount of pixels to move (up/down)? ex. move 100 pixels UP from current y or move 222 pixels down..

I have a square grid with 100 grid squares in it.I want the cursor to display its grid position.Does Flash plot the position based on pixels - ie would my grid square have to be 100x100px or a multiple of that eg 200x200px? Or could it calculate the position no matter what size the square was? eg 186x186px ?

i know i should probably be more specific here, but what my problem is that i want to make something were when mouse is button is pressed a pixzel is created. now i assume you use bitmap data setPixel function. but i don't know how to set it up so you can zoom in as well.me. i'm trying to set it up this way because i want to be able to save it as an image.because i tried it once before but after i had done all this i windedup not being able to save the image properly. it turned out having anti-aliasing around all the pixels.

I have a math issue that I have some problems solving.
screen1
screen2
I need to calulate the pixels inside the squares and put them inside an array:
The main square rotates(see screen2) and i have the angle.
Something like attached code.
I have the following values:
- x/y of the main square. ( reference point )
- Width/height of the main square
- Width/height of all the squares
- Angle of main square..

I actually try to do the following: I have loaded an external image in a bitmapdata object and create a bitmap from it which i attach it to a sprite/MovieClip in order to have mouse events on it. Now under the previous logic i loaded two images (let's say circles) of the same size one that has a particular color and is covered by its black foreground circle. When i press left mouse button and hold it down i want while the mouse is moved to erase the foreground circle's pixels and so the background image starting to appear.[code]...

I'm populating a dropDownList with arrayCollection of strings. I want the width of the drop down list control to match with the size (in pixels) of the longest string in the array collection. The problem I'm facing is: the font width of the strings in the collection are different e.g. 'W' looks wider than 'l'. So I estimated the width of a character to be 8 pixels but that's not pretty neat. If a string that has many 'W' and 'M' is encountered the estimation is wrong. So I want precise pixel width of strings. How can i get the exact length of a string in pixels??
My solution that estimates all character to be 8 pixels wide is given below:
public function populateDropDownList():void{
var array:Array = new Array("o","two","three four five six seven eight wwww");
var sampleArrayCollection:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(array);
[Code].....

I have a Flash object that I need to embed in a page, and I've got it in a wrapper div that is styled to the exact width of the object: 323px. The problem I have is that when I zoom the whole page in the browser (for example, by using ctrl+mouse wheel, or ctrl++ or ctrl+-, the wrapper div zooms, while the flash object does not. Is there a way that I can specify a width in physical screen pixels, so when I zoom in or out, the wrapper div stays the size of the Flash object?

I've got some lines of code to scroll a content-movieclip inside a mask:
ActionScript Code:
ratio:Number = (content_mc.height-mask_mc.height)/mask_mc.height;
var deltaScroll:Number = (this.thumb.y-oldPos)*ratio;
content_mc.y -= deltaScroll;
oldPos = thumb.y;
Now is the problem that at the bottom some pixels are getting lost. The content-movieclip isn't placed high enough so that the bottom pixels are not inside the mask (and therefore invisible). I think this is because ratio got a lot of decimals, and they are getting cut off in deltaScroll.
