ActionScript 3.0 :: Draw A Line Following A Moving Point?

Apr 12, 2011

I have a motion tween right now with a moving point that is following a copied and pasted motion path. Is there a quick way to have the point draw a line behind it as it moves along the motion path??? I can't seem to find a good way to do it in AS3.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Draw Line From Any Point A To B Dynamically

Feb 19, 2011

I am trying to make an animation where there are several locations(say A,B,C,D,......) made on a map. If a person clicks on one location A and then another location B, I wanted to draw a dotted line from point A (from destination of the plane) to point B (to destination of the plane) using AS3.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Draw A Pixelprecise Line From One Point To Another

Feb 15, 2010

I wish to draw a (hair-)line, from one point to another. The drawing-api at [URL] gives a nice explanation, but flash is slightly off. The lineTo statement draws a line towards the specified point, not to. It's probably a matter of opinion, but I'm fairly confident that we all agree that drawing a line from (1,1) to (5,1) should result in a line 5 pixel long. That's how we've all learned it when we were young, that how other programming languages do it, etc. (One could state that 'going to school' doesn't mean you actually enter the building , but that's just avoiding the issue) But not Flash. Drawing this line results in a line of only 4 pixels long, the line stops at coordinates (4,1). I can see the benefits in this when drawing (transparent) connected lines and closed shapes, but it has it's drawback when creating single lines.

I'm probably not the first one to run into this problem. Maybe it's just a setting somewhere? How do I get flash to draw a line to the exact point I specify? Preferably without having to analyze the direction of the line and moving the destination coordinates one pixel further.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Draw A Line That Keeps Moving Using Just It?

Feb 22, 2011

I'm trying to draw a line that just keeps moving using just AS3. Like when a heart beat monitor flat lines. The reason is I'm adding this to arduino project so when you breath into an alcohol sensor the line will move up if you have been drinking. I just want to be put on the right path.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Draw Straight Line And Snap To That Point

Nov 19, 2009

I am very new to actionscript 3.0 & currently i have a project to do that required actionscript.
ActionScript Code:
package{ //package
import flash.display.Sprite;// for sprite, to prevent 1046 error code
import flash.events.MouseEvent; //for mouseEvent, to prevent 1046 error code
import flash.display.Shape; //for shape, to prevent 1046 error code
public class gridDrawLineTesting extends Sprite //for mouseX mouseY
[Code] .....

This is the code that I have found from various web and paste it into one. I want to draw straight line & snap to that point at the same time. My problem is when I click at 2nd point, there is a 'extra' line at (0,0) joining towards my 2nd corrdinate point. I want to get rid of that 'extra' line.

Flash :: Draw A Line From A Point To Opposite Tangents On A Circle? Cone/wedge Shape?

Apr 15, 2011

This should be a bit of simple geometry: How do I calculate the points to draw the lines in the code below so that it makes a 2D cone or wedge shape?

UPDATE:I should have mentioned my aim is not to draw a wedge shape, but to draw a line from a random point to the edge of an existing circle.If you're more comfortable with algebra than actionscript,

Tablet Is Moving Steadily When Draw With The Pencil Tool The Line Starts To Zigzag And Squirm

May 5, 2010

Flash 8, CS3 and CS4 on Windows XP. The issue is that seemingly randomly, when I draw with the pencil tool, the line starts to zigzag and squirm, even though my mouse/wacom tablet is moving steadily. It's little tiny squirms that go in all different random directions. It's pretty much impossible to draw anything when this is going on, and I usually have to do something else for a while and hope it's still not doing it when I come back.

ActionScript 2.0 :: A Line From One Point Past Another Point And Whether It Hits An Object?

Aug 19, 2009

I am using AS2 with Flash 8 Professional So, my problem is that I currently have a man in the middle of the screen, who shoots a line towards the mouse when I click. However, when I use hitTest to see if the line collides with another object, Flash recognizes the line as a large box if it is diagonal, so the hitTest isn't very accurate. The line only satys there for one frame, so I can't have the usual moving-bullet-style. I am either looking for a way to create an imaginary line with AS from the starting point to the mouse and beyond, and tell whether or not this line intersects with an object... or some other way that I haven't thought of to fix my problem. Keep in mind that the line rotates from a center point towards anywhere around it for 360 degrees.

Actionscript 3 :: Movieclip - Draw Line Without Using The Draw API?

Apr 5, 2012

I need to be able to draw a thick patterend line between 2 points in AS3, I can't use the draw API because it doesn't all me to actually put detail (pattern etc) into the thickness of the line, I thought about perhaps using the line to create a bitmap version and then using that as a mask, but I remember many years ago seeing some examples that use a movieclip as a source for a line.

ActionScript 2.0 :: API-draw: Check If Line Intersects Another Line

Apr 13, 2005

I'm making a very simple game that lets you draw a curve by hand (using lineTo to the mouse position on mousemove) but now, I need to check wether the line intersects wiith another part of the same line (e.g. a loop)

I first used an onrollover command, and that worked, but not always because the mouse moved too fast (same with hittest with mouse). Then I pre-drawed the line in another mc, used hittest on it, and if it wasn't intersecting, draw it in the real mc. But that didn't work because it used the bounds to test. I guess the best way is to use some mathematical formula, but that would mean I have to save all my coordinates in an array..

I can make a "dot" do this in flash (ie without leaving a line trailing behind it) but I don't know how to make the line "grow" across the USA over time.
