ok so I am trying to draw a curve and then make it into a mask, the problem is, flash only calculates the mask for a fill and thus using the line does not work. Does anyone know of a way to convert a line to a fill with as3 without using something like bitmap data as I would like to keep it as vector data if possible, below is my code:
ActionScript Code:
line = new Sprite();
this.addChild(line);

i have an xml file and i want my code in flash to read it line by line but its only showing the first line out of 5 lines.Below is the code:

I am trying to dispatch an event but not sure when I should do it to get the right results. The first event "submitClicked" is in the right spot and works great. However, the second event "dataReady" seems like it might be a problem. I need it to be dispatched after this.compiledFormData is set.Does AS3 wait for each line of code in a function to be executed before moving on to the next line?
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
public function submitForm()

This is my scenario: I have a pencil that uses the simple drawing feature. When the mouse is pressed and dragged, the pencil draws a line. Basic stuff. What i want to do is have the line be a 'graphite' type of color, instead of the boring black, red etc. I'm thinking that i would use a mask with the graphite color layer on the bottom, and a blank white layer on top, then when the line is drawn, the pencil is actually erasing the top layer, to reveal the bottom graphite layer.

What would be the best approach at achieving this 'graphite'-style line fill?

I want to use this code on a frame. Is it onLoad I need to use??
Got to the point where the hole in my AS3 knowledge is getting large!Realising I have confusion about the relationship of:Body of code on first frame of AS3 file.(Which I have so far used to create instances of library objects using addchild and make calls to class code).Is this code called the document code? What do people call it?Numerous classes linked together by extending each other etc.Library objects (usually graphical objects)Should it be done differently? have the following problems due to lack of understanding:Addchild complicated from a class but straight forward in main body code.Cant call functions on the main body code from classes, because class code does not know the main body code exists?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to draw a line from x1, y1 to x2,y2 and i want it to be a line that repeats a pattern from an image. All I can see is that you can only draw lines and change their color or thickness but I would like it to repeat an image. Is that possible or do i have to use a really long and thin rectangle with a bitmap fill?The problem is I am making a game where the user will be able to actually draw the line so i have to make it be created dynamically. The game fantastic contraption [URL] has in the game a feature where you draw lines of any length and position that are filed with a picture.

I am new to flash, trying to do some animation character. I have 2 queries
1. What is lock fill; whenever I am trying to fill a color, it shows lock fill....
2. If I am creating a non regular figure like say with pencil, if I draw some part of it & do other part by later; these will be assumed different objects & I am not able to fill the whole figure with a selected color.
if (_root.Limits.Border.hitTest(this._x + xspeed, this._y + yspeed, true))Beginning with (this._x), I do not understand what effect that has on the hit test itself. I understand that the_root.Limits.Border.hitTestcalls a hit test on Border, which resides within the movie clip Limits. What effect is had on the outcome of the hit test by adding in those specific variables, along with the "true" at the end? I'm making a game that of course uses extensive hit test collision detection, and this code is from a sample I've been working on to get my collision detection down pat.

The project is now 'go', but I want to convert the crappy internal code to external. I don't have any of those fancy IDE's. I could get one, if it would help.Does anyone know of any tutorials covering internal to external conversion? Has anyone else done this? Is there a simple list of things to convert to make the code work externally?
