ActionScript 3.0 :: Draw A Rectangle With Dotted Line With It?
Jun 21, 2011Is there a way to apply styling to the line of a rectangle that is drawn using AS3? So instead of the solid stroke, can I apply a dotted or a dashed one?

View 1 RepliesAfter some search and reading the Graphics class document, I can't find a way to specify the line style of a line. I mean whether the line is a solid one or a dotted one.
View 3 RepliesAs i understand, flash cant assign dashed or dotted linestyles. Ive googled it for a while and found 2 classes which actually draw dashed and dotted lines, but i can't manage to implement it with my drawing tool.

View 2 RepliesI 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.

View 4 RepliesI'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..
In Flash CS4, when I draw a rectangle (or circle, or anything) with a color that has 0 alpha, nothing is drawn. Also, if I select a piece of drawing and change the color to 0 alpha, the drawing (e.g. rectangle) disappears!I know I can draw a non-transparent rectangle, convert it to movie clip and set the movie clip's alpha to 0, but I'd like to avoid this.

Basically this is not working. I used this question to improve - still nothing.Why doesn't this Flex App draw a simple rectangle?
i don't know if i'm posting at the right topic but i would like to know if anyone can tell me how to auto draw a rectangle around an image? for example, the image loads and is static then a rectangle is drawn around the image starting from the top left corner and goes around the rectangle back to the start of the image.

I'm trying to draw a filled rectangle with no border. Here's the code for my test project:
ActionScript Code:
myMC = this.createEmptyMovieClip("", this.getNexthighestDepth()-1);
myMC._x = 0;
[Code].....
If you take a look at the coordinates, this was suppose to draw a 180x22. Well, it looks lika it draws a 180x22 rectangle, but only if the zoom is at 100%. If I zoom in on the flash player, there are two problems:
1) the line, as it is scaled, goes over the shape edge. Basically, as the border line has 1 pixel, Flash starts do draw it half pixel up and half pixel left; 2) the rectangle is in fact a 179x21 pixels, instead of the 180x22.
I'm sending an example project on an attachment. In this example I have 2 vertical rectangles which act as buttons:
1) the first button draws the rectangle step-by-step;
2) the second button cycles through 3 different styles:
2.1) line with 1 pixel, normal border rescale. This is the style at start;
2.2) no line;
2.3) line with 1 pixel, no border rescale.
The background is a checker texture, with 1 pixel per square. This gives you a perfect look on how the line is drawn.
The drawing instructions are executed on the yellow movieclip, which serves as reference, considering that it has the desired dimensions (180x22). *
If you zoom a couple of times you'll be able to see the problems I'm experiencing.
All you have to do is to click the first vertical button several times to draw the lines, to press the second vertical button to reset the draw and to change the border style, and finally to look at the draw with some zoom in, in order to see it in detail.
So, what can I do in order to draw a perfect rectangle, meaning that the border will not go outside the shape (it would be nice that when the border is rescaled, it does it inside the boundaries of the shape) and the rectangle has right dimensions (why am I missing one pixel in each direction?).
* By the way, is there a way to draw in a movieclip using the lineTo in such a way that the drawing is on the topside instead of the bottomside? I had to make the yellow rectangle partially transparent in order to see my drawing.
How would I draw a rectangle on the stage with 40% alpha? using bitmaps, bitmapdata, and copypixels?
View 2 RepliesI'm learning ActionScript 3.0 and I made a small app to draw rectangles on stage. Now I want to drag&drop them around. I want to be able to click on an object, without triggering the stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickEvent); but when I click on an object, it also triggers that event. How can I save the click on object from triggering that event on stage?
Here's the code:

package {

import flash.events.*;
public class main extends Sprite {
var startX, startY, endX, endY: Number;

View 3 RepliesIs it possible to draw a rectangle dynamically using 'lineTo()' and have it fill with a gradient that is 100% alpha on one side and 0% on the other?
View 2 RepliesMy idea was to create a method for drawing rectangle with rounded corners, but while being able to specify which of the four corners (any, all, none,etc.) you wanted to round. The method below does the trick, but for some reason my corners don't match the same curves that I get using the same radius with drawRoundRect(). In other words, if I call my method (and set all four corners to be rounded) and compare that with the same call to drawRoundRect() the actual curves of the corners are slightly different.
HTML Code:
public function drawComplexRoundedRect(startX:int,startY:int,rectWidth:int,rectHeight:int,radius:int,canvas:Sprite,roundTopLeft:Boolean=false,roundTopRight:Boolean=false,roundBottomLeft:Boolean=false,roundBottomRight:Boolean=false):void{
if(roundTopLeft){
canvas.graphics.moveTo(startX,(startY+radius));
[Code] .....
Then compare
HTML Code:
var canvas:Sprite = new Sprite;
drawComplexRoundedRect(0,0,200,200,25,canvas,true,true,true,true);
with
HTML Code:
var canvas:Sprite = new Sprite;
canvas.drawRoundRect(0,0,200,200,25);
and you will see the two rectangles are not identical.
Im probably overlooking something simple, but when I try to draw a rectangle Flash is automatically applying a corner radius. I've tried resetting the options in the Properties Inspector, which resets to the default, but soon as a draw a shape it goes right back to a random radius.
