I am trying to distort a bitmap, I mean, I have this bitmap in the main stage and I want to drag a section to. I don't know, maybe drag the eye of the character in the picture but I want all the bitmap to react or at least the closest region of the point I am dragging. Is that possible? I know the drawTriangles() that is been use to gave this 3D effect, but I need something different.
View 3 RepliesI added a movieclip and named "bot_mc" in another movieclip. Then, In Action panel, I use bot_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOWN, xxxx). However, when I drag and drop the container movieclip on the main stage and compile. There is no error occurs but the MouseEvent doesn't work.
View 3 RepliesIm trying to do a drag and drop system where the user can drag a movie clip into an area. Although i would like to make it snap to a target instead of just sitting wherever it lands in the area. Problem Two:
The next thing i am trying to do is when the user has a movie clip on a target already, and trys to put another movie clip in that target area, it will replace the one thats in there and go back to its current position. Here is the script of what i have done so far:

I am importing some graphics on the fly, and want to be ableto drag them around the stage, which all works great. My issue isthat if I add a large element, like a border around the edge of thestage, this covers up all the other items so that clicking on themis not possible. I can see them, but when I click, the large itemgets the event, even though visually, it is transparent. There arethings I could do if I was doing all the development of thegraphics in the IDE, but these items load at runtime, so it has towork with bitmap
View 1 RepliesSo I have a BitmapData object that's 400x400, and is mostly transparent with a small area (up to 50x50) of color somewhere inside. That's drawn to a bitmap, and now I somehow need to generate a Sprite that is only the dimensions of the small colored area, and sits in the same place on the screen.The size and position of the colored area is variable, and the operation to create the new Sprite must be near-instantaneous, so no lengthy pixel comparison exercises.
View 2 Repliesi am loading a background bitmap into a sprite. after that i make this sprite draggable. now i would like to have a copy of this sprite where just the area with the non-transparent parts of the bitmap react to the click.
i know that i can determine if a pixel is transparent with the getPixel32() method, but it seems to be overkill to anylyze every pixel... or is it not?
I need to be able to detect a fill area for something similar to a coloring book picture. The user will click inside the area that needs to be filled. The image is user created bitmap content and so the fill area must be detected at runtime. Posting Flex 4 code for review:

I've dynamically created sprites with graphics and added a text field dynamically to each sprite, displaying different text. These sprites (checkers in this case) are draggable. Without the text added to it, the drag area is very precise, dragging only when the circle is selected. However, when I dynamically add the text, there's a significant portion underneath and to the side of the sprite that is also draggable. This is really annoying when one sprite is placed above another because trying to move the sprite below causes the sprite with a lower y coordinate to move even though it shouldn't. When I tried to define a width and height for the text field to avoid this unnecessary space, it made the text much too small!
There must be some way to make it so only the graphics and text are draggable. I don't even mind if there is a square (like the old Flash 5 movie clip square) around the combined object, but there shouldn't be the white draggable space.
For reference, here is the code:
Code:
var i:int = 0;
var Rwidth:uint = 20;
var Rlength:uint = 20;

So I want to fence off part of my stage for dragable MCs. I don't want them to be able to be dragged out of. Say withing 50 pixels of both the left top and right borders, and within 150 of the bottom border.
View 4 RepliesI'm making a mockup for a client and I need to Load the .swf with the exact stage size so the graphic elements do not float outside the loaded movies stage area. [URL]Basic load code I'm using...

I am using the floodfill method to colour-in sections of a bitmap image. That part is easy enough but the issue comes in with the way I am adding an effect to the colour fill routine.
To add the effect, first a copy of the bitmap data is created and floodfill is used on that instead of the original bitmap. Then the bitmapdata.compare method is used to set the alpha value of everything apart from the filled-in section to 0 and the result is saved in another bitmapdata. After that, a 1 px radius circle sprite is added to the stage and is being tweened to the image dimensions and its mask is set to the sprite which contains the result of the compare operation.
This works perfectly except for the fact that the fill sprite has to be tweened to the complete image dimensions irrespective of how small the area is being coloured-in since I am not able to find a way to get the dimensions of the fill area. I am doing an bitmap image update at the end of the tween and I have to disable user interaction till the tween is complete to avoid the errors which come in if another fill-in operation is started before the base image has been updated. If I could somehow get the dimensions of the fill area then the time during which I have to disable the user interaction will go down considerably.
Can We set drag & drop area in flash?
for example, i want to drag a movie clip in the sample_mc, and i want to move only sample_mc's area, it doenst move out of sample mc.
My drag code is
Code:
drag_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopMove);
// Functions
function startMove(evt:MouseEvent):void {
drag_mc.startDrag();
}
i add a picture about i want to do.
Im trying to think how i fix this problem. i have a map at the stage and its big, i need to click and move it. But when i get the final of the image, i continue move it and appears the stage.
How i lock the image when it get the final to dont appear the stage? the cod that im using is:
map.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, move)
map.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, drop)
function drag (e:Mouse Event)
{ e.target.stargDrag();
}

I have a canvas,lets say of dimensions 500x600. I have some controls inside that canvas.User can rearrange the controls by drag and drop. But I want to restrict the drag and drop within that canvas. For example: There is a button in the canvas. User can drag and drop the button anywhere inside the canvas.But if the user tries to drag the button out of the canvas boundaries, it should stick in the canvas boundary. How to achieve this?
View 2 RepliesI have 20 squares, each one has a different number(1, 2, 3, etc.) The number is in a dynamic text box which is centered above the square( the square is a Sprite object called "MySquare".) I would like to make the squares drag and droppable. When I test the movie, the arrow cursor becomes a vertical line when over the number. I can click on the edge of the square but then the cursor automatically goes to the center and the compiler returns the error: property StopDrag not found on flash.text.textField.
Here is ActionScript Code:
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var m1:MySquare = new MySquare();
m1.theText.text="1";

How can I alter this AS from a thread here into something where the person drags the thumbnail to a certain movieclip on the stage(say a red X), then the big actual image loads into another movieclip on the same stage. So basically instead of dragging the thumbnail to on top of the already loaded image to load the new thumbnail, the new thumbnail will be dragged to a different area (the red X) to the left of the already loaded image. If it isn't dragged and dropped on the certain area (the red X) then it eases back to it's thumbnail spot. [URL]

how to make buttons play movie clips in a particular area when I press a button however I'm trying to make the jump up higher.
I have 3 menu items with 3 movie clips loaded just beneath the menu Items. However my first problem is, how do I hide content or even better, only play certain movies when a button is released?
At the moment the code for a button I use is:
on(release){
_root.intro.play();
}
But all the movie clips are overlayed!!

View 4 RepliesI have objects that the user can click&drag. They're PNGs, mainly rectangular, no problem till here.But I then had to put an L-shaped object (a PNG with a lot of transparency), so i've made a movieclip with an shape with the same L shape than the png, and use it as its hitArea:
shape.visible= false;
shape.mouseEnabled= false;
obj.addChild(shape);
obj.hitArea= shape;
This works PERFECT, the mouse events respond as expected, and I can click on objects that are below/above the transparent area of the png/object.All objects are inside a Sprite called playgroundLayer1. The issue comes when I take the L-shaped object and put it on another Sprite (playgroundLayer2), that is above the playgroundLayer1.I this case, I can click&drag on the L, but no object below the transparent area of the L receives mouse events.
