I'm starting to learn AS3, and a question comes to mind. Let's say I'm in the authoring environment and I draw a rectangle on the Stage, set some properties - fill color, etc. - and then convert to button symbol.
Question 1 - Is Flash creating AS code that records these actions (create an instance, set properties, etc.)?
Question 2 - If Flash is creating AS code, is there any way we can see that code?
I am using the draw() method of the BitmapData to encode a jpeg of part of the image. Now this should be easy enough given the object I want to draw to the bitmap is on the stage at design time so I know its location and dimetions exactly! Heres the code I have in place.
Code:
var myBitmapSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData ( street.width, street.height, false, 0x333333);
myBitmapSource.draw(street, null, null, null, new Rectangle( 96, 5, 571, 450 ), true );
I know for a FACT that no part of the street clip I am drawing out is in negative space, and it's registration is (0,0). However, it cuts off A lot of the top of my image. y=5 in the above rectangle is where I need the top to be, but it cuts the top off of the image... even if I change it to 0, it has no effect.
actully i create a Movie Clip by Code and i Want its appear On stage 5 times ..But its add only single Movie clip on the stage ..program has no error
ActionScript Code:
package com

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 am trying to have flash draw a line from the center of the stage out and increment around the stage. Not sure what math I would use to do this though. So far I have the line going out to a certain point but not sure how to change that point so that it circles around whatever the dimensions of my stage would be.
So far I have this:
var linetox=0;
var linetoy=0;
var _stage=this;[code]...
which obviously moves the destination ending of the line lower and lower, just trying to get it to draw around the screen (like a clock)
As stupid as my question might sound, i have spent the last 2 weeks reading oop books; but could use some guidance. I have a flash project that is basically a supped up slide show. On the stage i have the following: main_mc (instance name = images_mc) = movieclip which holds "pictures" ui1 (instance name = ui1_mc) = user interface that allows user to draw on picture (when drawing is enabled) ui2 (instance name = ui2_mc) = activates invisible hit areas (buttons) on select pics, when hit area is clicked, we jump to another pic in the main_mc.
I accomplished all of this on the timeline, but am updating the code to OOP. I am having A HELL OF A TIME trying to figure out how to store references to the instances (images_mc etc..), so i can control them from varying class files. I have found it is easy to control the instances from the documentclass, but not from unrelated class files. Example: images_mc.stop(); works in document class; but ovieclip(Parent).images_mc.stop() doesn't seem to work from any class file.(ui2 class file for example);

I had a 2 frame setup with some actionscript for each frame. Tried to move it all into one class file and a
1. frame .fla. ; Hiding and showing the resp. moviclips when i virtually move from frame 1 to frame
2. Now I get these ...Error #1069: Property edit_panel_mc not found on flash.display and there is no default value. errors or..
when i thought beeing clever adding the stage. prefix ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property edit_panel_mc not found on flash.display.Stage and there is no default value. The mc's are on the stage... i have a single .as classfile. Why cant I reference them? or how should i do it/ what should i do to change it from beeing .fla script to class script.
I see a lot of tutorials about coding actionscript 3 when they use all the code in a Class.I keep thinking every time why they use it in a class, instead of using actionscript on the stage.why it is more functional to code a class instead of putting code in the stage actionscript?
View 3 RepliesI drew a line, and named it multiLinesHorizontal_mc (It's not on the Stage, but in the Library and exported to ActionScript3). Now I would like to use that multiLinesHorizontal_mc and bring it on stage (25 Horizontal Lines) with space between each row the gap should be 5.
View 9 RepliesI'm trying to create a flash program that uses it's own code to send and create images. Each square has a colour and that colour gets added into the array. A black, then grey, then white is:
filecode = ["Bl", "Gr", "Wh"];
That works fine, but when I try to paste it into an Input text box it will only fill in the first part of the array.
filecode = ["Bl,Gr,Wh"];
So the program has NO idea what I want.The only ways I can think of fixing this is by putting in 402 text boxes to suit every box...But every one of them needs a Variable Name.Or by sending the information straight into the array. But this way you are just looking at what you just drew, and that is not at ALL practical.

Code:

But now I was wondering how hard would it be to animate what you draw for instance how would you animate a simple line?

I have recently had the idea to create a lottery draw, the code below will create 7 randomly selected numbers and place these in the output window. My problem is how to use the 7 random numbers to display the corresponding lottoball on the stage. Should I create a movie for each lootoball or place all the lottoballs in 1 movie on seperate frames and have code goto each frame? I dont know!
pickfrom = new Array();
winlist = new Array();
all = 49;//49 lottoballs the choose from
shown = 7;//show 7 winners
for (i=0; i<all; i++) {
pickfrom[i] = i+1;

my requirement is that i want to dynamically draw lines on stage using actionscript only;
the end of each line should be the starting point of the next line. all lines will be of random different lengths, heading in random different directions...
but all line should stay in the bounds of the stage i.e. if the stage is 1024 X 768, lines should not go way out of these dimensions...

View 1 RepliesI am copying a bunch of shapes from my stage to a set of bitmaps for filtering.
Is there a faster way to do this? Is there a way to copy everything over together from the stage rather than how I'm doing it by copying the shapes in my array one by one?[code]...
