I just wanted to know weather we can Export Dynamic Movieclip into any other video format or even 'swf' through Actionscript. Or if there is any open source available that can perform the job.
View 1 RepliesBasically I have a small flash application that allow user to customize a avatar or something. After the customization, there should be a function that allow them to download the avatar they create as a .jpg file
I know this is possible, had seen something like that before, but how should I start about doing this?
I've wrote some application in Flash cs5, wich allow users to make their own Christmas Cards, but at the end of programming I realized, that I should to provide some function to save user's card to seperate SWF-file...
Please, anyone who knows, help me! I tried to find something in Google, but all what I understand is that I should use ByteArray. But I can't really get, HOW I can use it in my case?
All I have found is this four lines:
var buffer:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
buffer.writeObject(MOVIE_CLIP_HERE);
buffer.position = 0;
buffer.writeBytes(...);
The background is there is a client and a server
Client modifys the movieclip like whiteboard,
then he/she uploads the movieclip to the server.
The server exports the movieclip to swf file and store it in specific directory.
Are there anyway to do that, or simply a way to export movieclip to swf ?
I am making an application and I need to export a movieClip as a PDF. This movieCLip has both images and text. I know how to ad the movieCLip as an image to the PDF, but I need to have the text selectable. No problem...I add every child of the movieCLip to the PDF. No comes the problem. I don't know how to rotate the text inside the PDF. Is there anyway I can rotate it and still be selectable?
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to assign an 'Instance Name' to a dynamic Textfield' using the flashplayer5 export settings? Export gives me this error message : WARNING: This movie uses features that are not supported in the Flash 5 player Symbol=uitelgMc, layer=Layer 2, frame=1:Flash MX Text Field Instance Name Is there a workaround since I have to keep the movie fp5 compatible and I want to use the XML object to load text into the textfileds.

View 2 RepliesI have a script that create and positions a lot of movieclips (almost 2000) in an isometric perspective. These movieclips are in fact each grid of the big isometric movieclip. Okay...The thing is... can I create these grids and positions them and then export it all already created and positioned into and external SWF with all properties or someway to cache this script?I think if I put all movieclips manually and position them manually too... the compilation could be faster and the drag stuff could be faster too.

View 1 RepliesI want to export some vectorial drawings to a vectorial format (eps, svg,...) from a Flash application. Everything is vectorial in my application so it should be possible to do it, but I can't find a solution
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make this game and in trying to make it look more realistic, I'm trying to get the balloon to curve upwards before coming down and hitting the target. Is that even possible? Also, the target are dynamically created with random x and y points, so is it possible to make the end points the x and y point of that target?
View 1 Repliesfirst I had:
maskedImg = getChildByName("current") as MovieClip;
maskedImg.mask = mymask;
and everything worked properly. Then I removed the movieclip from the scene, exported it to Actionscript, and changed the code to
maskedImg = new mymovieclip();
addChild(maskedImg);
maskedImg.mask = mymask;
and now I don't see anything on the scene. If I comment out the line assigning the mask I can see the movieclip although. The mask is created dynamically in both cases.
For some reason, the same code works now, without any problem at all. I don't know what happened, or why, but I no longer have this problem Here's the original post: To put simply, I created a MovieClip, put it with addChild() to stage, and when I tried to call this piece of code:
[Code]...
1) I've created a MovieClip and placed a Dynamic Text into this clip. I've named the text "text_txt";2) I've exported my MovieClip for action script (made it a class) and gave it name "ImageContainer"; And I deleted MovieClip prototype from stage (to create it dynamically later)
3) On main time line in frame 1 I've placed code:
Code:
var clip_mc:ImageContainer = new ImageContainer();
clip_mc.name = "myClip";
addChild(clip_mc);
[Code]...
ADDED: Ha, everything was easy! I should just change one string like this:
Code: MovieClip(getChildByName("myClip")).text_txt.text = "doh";When I placed MovieClip in the beginning everything works fine with Strict Mode! Problem has been solved
I'm trying to do a cleaning of some classes that is added into a MovieClip, but I can't seems to set the MovieClip(Class) to null. What is the proper way to do it?
private var mcHolder:MovieClip = new MovieClip()[code].................
I have built a movieclip (parentMC) that houses two movieclips within it (mcA, mcB).
in mcA, i'm dynamically attaching movieclips from the library through a loop.
in mcB i'm trying to reference a particular movieclip from mcA via "_parent.mcA". Doesn't seem to be working. However, when i reference said movieclips from the loop within mcA - or even parentMC, it works fine.
i have created a movieclip (parentMC) that houses two movieclips within it (childA and childB)
in childA, i am dynamically creating movieclips via a loop:
Code:
var newX = 0;
var pagTotal = 8;
for(i=1; i<pagTotal+1; i++){
[Code].....
...and in childB i'm trying to reference one of these created movieclips via "_parent.childA.pagClip01" so on and so forth.
but they dont seem to be working. when i trace the dynamic clip from within childB i keep getting "undefined" in the output. however, I can reference the movieclip from within childA, and even from parentMC no problem.
i've used _root and _level0 absolute paths and still the same failed result.
I have a problem with loading text from a *.txt file into a dynamic textfield which is located in a movieclip in another movieclip. It seems it can't find the textfield because it is in movieclips. I know I shouldn't work with the '_root' command but in my project it doesn't matter. Also tried making '_root' globalmain to 'this'. But that still doesn't do the trick.
Code:
tdata = new LoadVars();
tdata.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {

I have tried making an application with a dragable movie clip inside that there is a dynamic text box. After draging it to a new place, I�m unable to read the value from the dynamic text box. I have tried calling like this "movieclip_name.dynamic_textbox.text". It dnt worked.I have tried with this code also.
event.currentTarget.parent.getChildByName(disp1).t ext
here 'disp1' is the instance of dynamic text box.
I've a movie clip, with some animations and other things... also a Texfield (dynamic) that i need to change from a AS file.
The dynamic Texfiled instance name is 'tfRandomGeo'
I export the movieclip to AS as com.ui.AniBanner;
And this is the 'clean' class:
Code:
package com.ui {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class AniBanner extends MovieClip {

how does one reference a MovieClip instance dynamically in AS 3.0? Example, I create a new instance of a "marker" MovieClip class that inherently has within it a series of embedded MovieClips labeled: "m1", "m2", "m3" etc ... and I want to be able to dynamically reference those embedded MCs.I used to do this all the time in AS 2.0, and can't recall how to do it in AS 3.0.I know it is something like this:
number = 1;
marker = new StaticMarker();
var thisMarker = this.marker.m[number];[code].........
If I have movieclips called "test1", "test2" and "test3" in the _root, I can use:
for(i = 1; i <= 3; i++){
_root['test'+i]._x = 100;
}

I have an array that houses the names of six movieclips. I randomly select three of them. I am trying to get my randomly chosen movieClips to do what I want them to do. I have tried the following code to get the first to fade in:
[Code]...
But it does not work. The trace comes back with the full movie clip name ex: mcTom, but even though that value comes up in the trace, the AS doesn't see it as a movie clip. Any thoughts on how I can correct this?
What I'm trying to do is create 8 movie clips that I will load different images and dynamic text into using XML. I understand how to work with the XML but what I can't figure out is how to create different MovieClips that house the different images. This is what I have so far:
var thumbHolderArray:Array = new Array;function addThumbs():void{ for (var t:Number = 0; t < 8; t++) var greyMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); this.addChild(greyMC); greyMC.name = "greyMC" + t;

I'm adding text to a movieclip as you can see below. The text is alomost not visible because it's so small. If I don't scale the movieclip then the text becomes clipped. I basically want the movieclip to be a tight container (the same size as the textfield) for the Textfield. The below does not work. How can I do this?
