ActionScript 3.0 :: Determining Contents/colour Of Objects On A Frame
Feb 25, 2010
I want to use flash's gui to do some tweens, creating line black and white drawings (which I know how to do).
NOW THE CHALLENGE:
I now want to be able to extract/infer from the stage which pixels are black and which are white (and fill up a array).
I have two lines of inquiry;
1. Convert the vectors created by the tweens into a "bitmapdata" and then use the getPixel() method to reference the pixels. - This would be great for me (if I could do this on a frame by frame basis), but I do not know how to convert the tween created vector into a bitmapdata object
2. Do some magic and be able to know what vector lines are on the stage, including their position, length etc.

I have written code that continually adjusts the colour of a targetted movie clip using a Color object called 'myColor' and an Object called 'colTransform' to adjust the colour of a movie called 'myClip':
//creates colour object and links it to movie
myColor = new Color(myClip);
//creates object that dictates colour adjustment
colTransform = new Object();
//adjusts object
[Code]...
I could also write a loop that loops through a number of objects and applies the colour changes to each in turn but I'm looking for a simpler solution - is there a way of doing this?

I have a number of graphical called "Arms1", "Arm".... "ArmsN".
I would like to change the colour of all the objects.
I have a _global.armColour variable that I would like to access and all the graphics to change to that colour.
How do I great a for loop to create N number of these:
armsColor = new Color(_root.ArmsN);
and set N number of these.
armsColorN.setRGB(0x000099);
N = say 10.

I've got two functions running that change the colour of certain objects within my stage. I'm wondering if I can combine them into one which would half the code (and eventually quarter the code because I'm planning on adding two more colours).

I have 25 textboxes on stage named sw1 through to sw25. I want to evaluate the contents of each box using a for loop. How can I do this. Note the following code does not work for me.
for(var i = 1; i<26;i++)
{
var t = "sw"+i
trace (t.text)
}
I get this error message when I run my program:
Property text not found on Number and there is no default value. at Mastercalendar_fla::MainTimeline/frame1(E)

Im using Color transform to change the stage background color.
However on the first pass it works, jumps to frame 3 and changes colour. Then I have a button which sends back to frame 2 and transforms colour to original.
On the second frame 3 does not change colour. The action script on frame 3 seems to only be executed once but it still manages to load the image from the url. So some of it is being executed.

I need to allow the user to create a circle with a specific radius and colour in a certain frame (lets say frame 2), and then add that circle as a symbol to a different frame (say frame 1). First off, im simply creating a circle.. This is what ive got in frame 2 so far:
(in Frame 2 of the timeline)
Code:
stop();
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.Graphics;
import flash.display.Shape;
[code]....
Ive got this much working, but I dont understand how to convert the output of this function to a symbol usable in another frame..

Is it possible that contents (huge) in the first frame will detect preloaders scripts?when the contents are being exported to the first frame? I know one solution that the instance of the image or a movie clip can be used. But when I am using dynamic content I cant use instances anyway.

I want to create a flash document that allows me to change the colous of an image using a colour palette of my own. I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to start this, hence i would need to know what to do and how to do it. I basically want the image to be a simple 2d image that i will create using different layers in photoshop and import them into flash, the layer images will all be one colour so the colour of the whole layer changes. so the colour palette will be on the side of this and when i click on an image and then a colour the image changes to the colour i clicked.

I am parsing colour codes that I get from a Flex(Flash ActionScript) application, then creating HTML div elements with that same colour. My Problem: The colours are all only 8 digits long. So they cant be RGB colour values can they? What color value format are they in? If I can figure the format they are in I can convert them to RGB. Maybe the last/first digit signifies its 0. alpha value?
PS: Should I convert the colours to RGB or something else?
This is an example of the colour code values I getting from the flash application:

I have 3 frames each with a movie clip called map_mc. Each different map_mc have different objects that call the CollisionDetect class. Heres whats happening. objects from frame 1 will start freaking out when I goto frame 2. How do I remove only the event listeners from objects only on frame 1?
I have been trying this.currentFrame but the problem is that all the objects are inside map_mc on the first frame so no matter what it will always be 1. On the other hand MovieClip(root).currentFrame will always give me the current frame but wont tell me what the objects frame is relative to the stage.What I want to do is have something to this effect:MovieClip(root).this.currentFrame would output that this object is on frame 1 and MovieClip(root).currentFrame will tell me that the stage is on frame 2 so I can remove the listeners accordingly.

i have a background and i want to be able to change the colours of it using a colour picker... if the MC was to cover the whole stage... how could i then get a colour picker and make it so it would change to whatever colour i wanted from the colour picker?

I have built a simple Flash application that will be presented using a projector, the application will show messages in the form of questions that will come from a simple flat-file text file or XML file.
In addition to this I would also like to be able to add my own messages using a simple HTML form.
I've been looking around the web for some resources, but have been struggling to find what I am looking for. The basic idea is that the flash application will loop through these different messages from the XML, but then when a user types in a message that will also appear within these messages. Think of it as a sort of dynamic tag cloud.

I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.

I'm working on a mock project (no real client involved) and just sent the site out to some friends to view and give feedback. All of them saw what I was seeing and said it looked great. One person however, said the site looked like it was loading in weird. He sent me a video of what he was looking at. It seems like the contents of my 3rd frame are already loaded in at frame one and the ones that load in dynamically in frame 3 never come in at all. Lots of things going wrong here. Below is a link to the live site and a link to a zip file containing all working files. Inside the zip is also a couple of video files, one is a video of what the site should look like (Vid1.mov) and the other is a video of what my friend was seeing (Vid2.mov).

I have a script where i need an objects X and Y Position to change when you enter a certain frame.
On layer 1 i have an input text field with the instance of "message_txt" that runs along all 5 frames in the timeline.
On layer 2 i have 5 frames each with its own actionscript on. The user navigates between frames with simple 'gotoAndStop(4)' etc... on each next or back button.[code]...

I have an object (button) on frame 2 of my timeline, with the name btnMenu. When clicked, i want to return to frame 1 in the timeline. Actionscript 3 does not allow me to bind the eventlistener to the button from my code on frame 1.Layout:layer 1: Actions, only on frame 1layer 2: btnMenu, only on frame 2 (with an empty frame in front)Code:
stop(); // don't automatically go to frame 2
btnMenu.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function() { gotoAndStop(1); }
(and other code to go to frame 2 obviously)The error i get is "can't find method/property of object that is null" (roughly translated).

On the stage there is 20 pixels before the thumbnails are supposed to be layed out, so I have tried to accommodate this. So the objects I want to create are the thumbnails. My problem is they are not showing up, and I have a valid image URL in the XML. Can anyone tell me how I would fix this? How do I do this in AS3?

I've finished a game and now I'm in the process of installing the mochiads preloader. The problem is that all of my exported assets load before the preloader.So I searched around learned that there are a few things that I must do:-Turn off "export on first frame"-Set classes to export on frame 3-Put all of my exported assets in a movieclip on frame 2Now this does shift everything to load on frame 2, except the problem is that all of these assets are now absent from my game for some reason. I get no errors or anything

I'm working with a movieclip right now that has two frames in it. I want the user to be able to go back and forth between the pages by clicking on tabs on either page. The button that they click on is only present on the frame that it is applicable (so, the button to switch to frame 2 is only present on frame 1, and vice versa).
I want to control when they are able to click back and forth, and be able to turn the buttons on and off whenever I need to, but since the button to switch back to frame 1 is only on frame 2, when I reference it from the main timeline, the button registers as a null object. How do I refrence an object that is not present on the first frame of a clip?

I am looking to create an animation (perhaps frame by frame) that corresponds with the coordinates of an object. Specifically, I want to have a draggable object's coordinates (locked to the x-axis) indicate where the playhead of a specific movie clip should be. In other words, let's say that I have a 100px wide stage and I want each px location of an object on that stage to correspond to a particular frame of a movieclip. In concept, I feel that it should be as easy as loading an objects coordinates into a variable, then passing that variable on with a simple math equation, adjusting it for movieclip length... but right about then my brain gets fried. Finding out how to lock a draggable object to the x-axis has been pretty easy, but from there I'm stumped. I'm not particularly well versed in AS3 but I do like to think I understand the concepts.
