How can i make an object draw progressive lines by limiting the length of the line and the controlling the direction in which it must be drawn??
View 2 RepliesI would like to have a possibility, where a user could draw simple lines, but with exact length (5000mm, 3150mm, 3950mm etc).where a user could just click and see the lines. Together these lines would make a floor plan for a house. These lines don't have to have thickness, because it will be just a sketch where walls are located. After user has drawn the sketch i would need the program to generate a text file with coordinates of the lines.

I have an 11 minute video (.MOV) that I want to convert to an FLV. The file is about 29GB. I first tried to convert it using the CS3 Video Encoder but only the first 5:00 were converted. I tried this a few times with different settings but got the same results. Then I switched to Cleaner but again, only about 5:00 was converted. The length is not exactly the same but close enough for me to think that there might be a 5:00 limit to how long an FLV can be. Or is there a limit to the size of MOV the encoding process will handle?

View 4 RepliesMy Flash movie has connected to a server via Socket. The server has sent some data over the Socket connection. This data consists of a 4-byte message header which describes the length of the incoming message and then the message itself. In this particular case, my message has a length of 500040 bytes.
My code receives the first installment of this long socket message in a block of 4,380 bytes. I know this because of trace statements in my socketDataHandler function. It peels off the 4 bytes at the beginning and interprets them to get the incoming message length of 500040. The remaining 4376 bytes go into a ByteArray var (a property of my class) called buffer. As more blocks of data arrive, the socketDataHandler function is repeatedly triggered and the extra blocks are concatenated into the buffer.

I have a function ( basically its the click on a reset buttons ) that sets back quite a loooooot of variables and text boxes. But after ( I think 200 lines ) , actionscript simply stops with that particular function and doesnt even give me an error.So it looks like there is a lines per function limit or something like that.I also tried it with an external .as but its the same.Creating functions for all these commands didnt work either.The only thing I can do is move a few lines up so that they get processed earlier.... ( but the last few still don't work )I even tried to make a function with 300 lines of myTextField.text = "hello"and a line: myTextField.text = "how are you" at the endDidnt work... it stayed at hello.
View 1 RepliesI have a progressive download video that i made using the File>import>import video method, I had no trouble rendering the f4v file from after effects, importing it and customizing the buttons ect. but when i test movie using the "bandwidth simulator" it seems to load the entire movie before playing instead buffering to a certain % then playing. I have looked everywhere in flash and on the internet for an answer but cant find one
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to limit the number of lines people can enter in an input textfield. I tried stuff with maxScroll, but that doesn't check if people press enter, so i end up with too many lines of text. I then looked at maxChars, but it's no use either, because users can still enter as many lines as they want.Is there no way you can combine maxChars and maxScroll? there also is "textfield.onScroller" which checks if the textfield is being scrolled. Can't i use an eventhandler based on onScroller? Like:[code]this results in people not being able to edit messages anymore after they reach the end of the textfield.I have no idea how to limit the number of lines in an input textfield. Anyone?

Just opened flash for the first time to find that the pen tool will only draw straight lines.It can still plot points and the lines will join up but curves are impossible.Is there some setting that disable drawing curves? I haven't found anything in the annoyingly-online files.
View 2 RepliesI need to generate three lines of text (essentially jibberish) that are each 60 characters long, including a hard return at the end of each line. The lines are generated from a dictionary of words of various lengths (typically 1-8 characters). No word may be used more than once, and words must be separated by spaces. I think this is essentially a bin-packing problem.
The approach I've taken so far is to create a hashMap of the words, grouped by their lengths. I then choose a random length, pull a word of that length from the map, and append it to the end of the line I'm currently generating, accounting for spaces or a hard return. It works about half the time, but the other half of the time I'm getting stuck in an infinite loop and my program crashes.

I'm trying to draw lines on a canvas object. When the width of the Canvas is less that the width of the line, it draws outside the Canvas over other elements. I read about this problem and I try to resolve using a inner Canvas with a longer height so a scrollbar appears.But I also read that this problem can be correct using a mask but I do not know what is the better way. Which do you recommend?
<mx:Canvas id="panelContentECG" width="100%" height="400" backgroundAlpha="0.5" styleName="miCanvas" borderStyle="solid" cornerRadius="20" borderColor="0xFCFE00" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">

how to draw aliased lines through actionscript?
View 3 RepliesI cannot get the lines to draw onto the top of the MovieClip box_mc.At this pojnt, my solution is to change the alpha of box_mc to 0. Now I can see my drawings which are under the box_mc but keep within the boundries of the MovieClip.Maybe my thinking is too concrete, but I was trying to get the drawing lines to stay on top of the MovieClip box_mc like it was a small drawing board.I have tried place a reference to the stage in various places and use addChildAt() in order to see f I can change the MovieClip's place in the hierarchy but so far nothing has worked.

I am trying to create a flash movie (AS3) that would allow the user to draw using his mouse but straight lines only. The user would click to set the start point of the line then as he moves the mouse around the line would move with the mouse until the user clicks again to set the end point. When the user clicks again a new line is created without deleting the previous one.
View 3 RepliesI have three functions that are drawing lines[code]...
I want the functions to work only when the mouse is in a special place on the scene, not drawing lines outside that place.
I have 4 coordinates from which i created a rectangle(using lines). I also created buttons dynamically. It works great for straight line. But when the coordinates generate diagonal lines im having a problem in making it go below the lines or fitting it inside the figure. See my pic for better understanding. I have also figured out how to rotate the button.[code]...
View 1 Repliesmy 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...
I am looking to create a drawing component on a site. that should be straight forward.the issue lies with the fact that I would want to detect any collisions say (4) and then attach MC's to the collision points.in a nut shell.can I get a trace of the drawn path on the stage?????from there I guess I can detect any positional similarities?
