ActionScript 3.0 :: Convert XML String To Hexadecimal Unit Color
Apr 14, 2008
I have an xml file containing color values to be applied in a series of shapes in my swf. However, when I try to assign the values, it doesn't work, it recognizes only a string and assigns the value 0 to the colors.
I want to ues XML to make various things dynamic in a site, including different background colors. XML values are always as strings and I cannot seem to find how to convert from the string to hexadecimal number that is needed to ues the setRGB function.[code]...
I passed dynamically value for color code But Its number format,but i need Hexadecimal color code?how can i convert numer format to Hexadecimal format in as3?here my code
ActionScript Code: var tf:TextField = new TextField(); tf.text ="jkg"
I want to store textfield data in a variable, the textfield will only contain "red, "blue" etc, and convert these strings into their hex values and then use that variable in beginFill method.
how to convert a decimal value to a hexadecimal with actionscript...
I want to make a funtion which will assign a random color to a movieclip... And the "set rgb" function requires the variable passed to be in hex. Bummer.
Also I could solve this problem if I could convert a string to a hex number insted of a decimal like with parseInt()
I think the solution may lie within the bitwise operators >> and <<, etc,... But I have no clue as to their use...
I have an issue working with the setStyle() on the modalTransprancyColor property. The module did not run on different variations of hexadecimal code, only one that seems to work is 0xDDDDDD. Anything else, this line of code will crash Flash.
I have started working with colors and have got a need for playing with hexadecimals. I tried making a variable which adds two hexadecimals, and it works but when I trace the answer, it comes out in decimals. How can I make it remain in hexadecimal or convert the decimal to hexadecimal?
I parse a file from which I fetch String variables representing Hexadecimal values, in order to use them as RGB color codes.
How to convert these Strings into Hexadecimal values ?
For example, I load a variable with the value "0xFFFFFF" from a file. This varaible is a String. I want to use the value in a SetRGB function, but it can not handle String, and can't do the conversion itself. So, how can make such a conversion ?
my_color.setRGB("0xRRGGBB") does not work. I need my_color.setRGB(0xRRGGBB).
how can i create an opposite of a hexadecimal color? for example, i'd like to convert 0x000000 (black) into 0xFFFFFF (white), or 0xFF0000 (red) into 0x00FFFF (cyan). those are rather basic colors, while variants of colors can have more complex hexadecimal values, such as 0x21B813 (greenish). are bitwise operators required for this? maybe a loop of each digit to calculate it's mirror from 0 to 15, or 0 to F (0 become F, 6 becomes 9, etc.) i'm using ActionScript, so i'm almost certain that this would be done the same way in Java.
Apparently, in order to make a bitmap transparent, one has to convert it to 256 colors from 24. I'm not sure if Flash puts it in 24 or 256, but because I can't create a transparency when using Bitmap() in my code, and from what I see displayed on the screen, it would appear that it uses 24 colors. Perhaps this is to keep things light. Nonetheless, is it possible to convert it to 256 colors?
So I am trying to take an XML document, load it in, then organize the elements into an array of Objects with the elements nodes as the properties of each object.All of that I am able to do so far.What is the real problem here for me is when I try to take one of the properties and try to assign it to a dynamic Textbox's .text property.I can trace the object property, but it will not go into a textbox.[code]Also, I noticed that when the code hits the first output error, it never executes the rest of the code in the changeQuestion function; or else I would have gotten more than one output error.
I have an array of string values that represent accessors to another array. I need to be able to use those to access the secondary array, so I need to find a simple way to convert the string to the actual array accessor.[code]...
However, it seems like there should be some way to cast the string into AS, that Flash can use to access the proper array, without having to do the complex string.slice statement.
Something like: var str:String = ActionScript(arr3[i]); would be much easier to type, as many times as I'm going to need it, than the .slice statements.
It is possible to converta string to a name?want to make a text to speech project that plays the sounds by name and i use the charAt function to split the text.[code]...
how to convert a string to an int...here's the thing when I use Number(myVar) it returns NaN. The string that I am trying to parse has a leading number followed by because I'm using loadVars and in order to make it more readable I'm trying to make a new variable on everyline....how I can do this I just need to remove the .
I want to define color value by using HSL(Hue, Saturation, Lightness) not RGB. Does actionscript have a function for that? For example, I want to write code like the following:
var color:int = hsl(10, 90, 30); sprite.graphics.lineStyle(2, color);
I have been exploring setTransform () and setRGB looking for a way to convert a color .jpg into grayscale. Even triyed using functions to define a Saturation control like the one in [URL]
Is there a way to write a UTF-16 string into a ByteArray in Flash/AS3? Basically I have a string (var test:String="allan"; for example) and I would like to write that into a ByteArray with UTF-16(LE) encoding. In this case it would be "61 00 6C 00 6C 00 61 00 6E 00".
I've tried using utf16le.writeMultiByte( clipText, "utf-16" ); but it just comes out with what appears to be UTF8 (or just straight ASCII given the test string).
