Flash - Draw A Bitmap In Graphics-Object At Any Position?

Mar 30, 2011

Is it possible to draw a Bitmap to a Graphics-Object like

this.graphics.beginBitmapFill(bitmapData, matrix, false);
this.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, w, h);
this.graphics.endFill();

with an offset?

A simple moveTo(x, y) call before beginBitmapFill does not work :/ Neither does changing the x and y value of drawRect... (That just seems to have the same effect as an translation with the matrix...) Additionally I don't want do draw that thing in a separate Graphics-Object and add that one into the other...

ActionScript 2.0 :: [mx] Storing The Current Position Of An Object

Sep 4, 2003

I've always wondered if there was a way to retrieve and store the current position of an object. i am trying to develop a background slideshow using penners equations. but i get into trouble because you have to define the start position. so let's say you click button 1, and the object moves from x =0 to x = 200. Now when i press button 2, i want the object to move from x = 200 to x = 400. and if i then press button 4, i want it to move from x=200 to x=800 and so on. So i need to go from the current position to any of the new positions. i could do this simply using the normal inertia code.

Actionscript 3 :: Tween Position Relative To Current Position?

Jan 23, 2010

I have a tween set on a timer:

var manTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,14);
manTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveMan);
function moveMan(e:TimerEvent):void {[code]....

I just need to make the tween's position relative to it's current position, as opposed to starting at the stage's 0 position then moving the the stage's -40 position. It needs to start at its current position the move -40 from that position.

IDE :: Graphics Class - How To Get The Current Shape

Dec 9, 2009

My application has a lot of dynamically loaded shapes... Now i am working on an interface to change the color properties of each Sprite. The first idea was a simple colorTransform. But afaik this only allows for transforming the existing colors. I also want to be able to define a NEW fill, i.e. GradientType.LINEAR / RADIAL.

SOLUTION 1: There may be an undocumented method to retrieve a graphics current points. With that i could loop through this Array with lineTo and redraw the current shape with the new solid / gradient fill.

SOLUTION 2: Create a newSprite with the chosen GradientType, size it by currentSprite.getBounds(); and then use newSprite.mask = currentSprite; to fake my desired fill... However, i am afraid of the impact this creates on the application as there may be more than 200 of these Shapes displayed on stage... overlapping each other.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Record The Current Position Of Any Of The Items Item In Order To Use That Data To Change The Position Of The Item After The User Clicks?

Jan 2, 2010

If I have several items that move across the screen but the user can click any of them at any time, how do I record the current position of any of the items item in order to use that data to change the position of the item after the user clicks?

This is what I am doing: I have 11 images that slide accross the screen. The user can click any of them at any time. When he clicks one I am scaling the image so it looks like it is comming forward (z axis) and then the rest of the images are scaled down so it looks like they are going back on z axis. So what I am trying to do is get the current position of the image when the user clicks the image so that I can use that to correctly estimate the scaling and moving of the image to make it look like it scales from the center and not from the top left corner. So if have a variable that gets the current position of the image being clicked I'm thinking I can change its position using something like: x = currentposition + -45;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Position Graphics In A Circular Pattern ?

Jan 13, 2010

how to position graphics in a circular pattern and they space out evenly depending on how many graphics are in a given array.So now, I want to be able to rotate the graphics in a clockwise or counter-clockwise pattern (not a sprite container that holds all of the graphics, but the graphics themselves.)

Code:
private function weaponChange(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
if(e.keyCode == LEFT_KEY1 || e.keyCode == LEFT_KEY2 || e.keyCode == DOWN_KEY1 || e.keyCode == DOWN_KEY2) {
for(var i:uint = 0; i < _weaponSymbols.length; i++) {[code]....

So this gets each graphic to the next location just fine. Now notice what I have in red... I want the graphics to animate along the parameter of the circle. All I need to do that is to identify the x,y coordinates between the two graphics. I can just subtract the y of one graphic from another... the x is something I have no idea how to do...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Checking Current _x Position With A Loop?

Apr 3, 2009

I have this tween function that moves an object 100 pixels as soon as it enters the frame.

if (currentValue % 15 == 1) {
var rab1:MovieClip = rabbit1._x;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (rabbit1,"_x",Regular.easeInOut,rab1,(rabbit1._x = rabbit1._x + 100),2,true);
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){
this.stop()
}

My idea is to set up a loop to watch the tween, once it advances its 100 pixels from where it started I want to do a few things before I go to the next frame. Right now I'm using a timer, but it limits my ability to control the playhead.

I've been trying to create a loop to check the current _x and trace it so I can see it advancing as its tweening but it's simply too advanced for me.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Set Current Frame Based On Mouse X Position?

Mar 26, 2009

I am attempting to create 360 degree spin-around product viewer. So far I have a movie clip with 24 frames, each one with a different 15 degree angle shot of the product. Upon playback of the movie, the product appears 3D, spinning 360 degrees.

That was the easy part. Now what I need is to be able to click and drag the product to change which view you are seeing (or which frame in the mc you are on) thus producing a spinning effect. How can you code, in AS3.0, that when the mouse is clicked and drug, go to a certain frame based on the current X position of the mouse?
