I'm trying to create spinning rays in actionscript to use in my website.Below is the rough idea of what i'm trying to create.Is it possible to create absolutely with 0 images.Following is the actionscript code in which i couldn't figure out how to add gradient, transperant background and little radial gradient to create glow effect.
Code:
function CreateRays():Shape {
var ray:Shape = new Shape();
ray.graphics.beginFill(0xFF9900,.5);
ray.graphics.lineStyle(1,0xFF9900,.5);
[code]....
If you paste above code in 1st frame of your scene with nothing on your scene, it will give you sweet rotating rays!
I have a graphic symbol of a circle that has a radial gradient fill of yellow to red. All I want to do is have it change from yellow to red to red to yellow. I tried the advanced color settings but that doesnt quite do what I want. With the color settings.. it changes the complete tint of the object. I want it to look like it is tweening the gradient not the object. So if the object had a yellow center with a red outer edge I want it to chenge to a red center with a yellow outer edge. How do I accomplish this?
I've been trying to learn just now how to dynamically create a radial gradient in a circle. All the pages that I can find use the command 'beginGradientFill', but when I use it I get the following messages:
Warning: 1060: Migration issue: The method beginGradientFill is no longer supported. For more information, see the Graphics class.. and TypeError: Error #1006: beginGradientFill is not a function.
Unfortunately I can't seem to find the replacement, or any other pages that describe an alternative to that function. What is the way to do a radial gradient now?
my first time trying to draw a multi-color gradient in actionscript 3. So I got this code from the help docs, but I can't seem to get a vertical gradient, whatever formula or number I use for rotate, it stays stuck on the default horizontal gradient :(
So it has been posed to me to create a Radial Gradient Blur on a still frame of a video. I wanted to ask the community how they would go about doing this after posing my own solution.
Here is the concept solution to me:
1. Create a bitmap from the still frame 2. Create a gradient filled shape with alpha from 0-100, center out. 3. Apply a blur filter to the bitmap made from the video still 4. Set the bitmaps mask to the gradient filled shape 5. Position and overlay the newly created/masked image over the video itself to generate the gradient blur effect.
EDIT: Here is a link to a good example for what I am trying to achieve. I know it can be done.
Indeed, i would like to inrease the RGB values of my radial gradient of my shape every 1 or 3 frames. I did it manually, but its very long. So i would like to know if anyone can help me to make it with code, it's will be most efficient and fast. I've already created my shape with a radial gradient. Now i would like just to increase the RGB values of my radial gradient.[code]
let's say i have this object on stage and it is called myShape and i want to manipulate it via action-script and apply a gradient color to it .. no if it is a fill color i could have used the colortransform method but i don't think that it will work ..
import flash.geom.* import flash.display.* var fillType:String = GradientType.LINEAR;[code]........
now when i test this i don't get any errors but i doesn't apply any thing ..
I'm trying to draw a gradient in Flash using beginGradientFill and drawRect, but when the rect being drawn is partially outside the bounds of the parent, the gradient isn't drawn at all.
For example, consider the code below: function testGradient():void { var g:Graphics = container.graphics; var width:Number = container.width; var height:Number = container.height; [Code] .....
When the rectangle being drawn lies within the bounds of container, everything works: However, if the rectangle lies outside of the bounds of the container, the gradient isn't drawn at all. For example, if the code is changed to: ... var x:Number = 10; var y:Number = 10; ... Then the gradient disappears: Short of doing the math required to draw the box inside the bounds of the parent (and fixing up the gradient so it looks correct), is there any way to deal with this?
I've got a question about a swf that needs to be opaque. I've got a gradient fill in the .swf that creates a nice background. But I want to import this file in a flash/xml website and the file has to be opaque in order to work properly.
This is the code: import flash.display.StageAlign; import flash.display.StageScaleMode; import flash.display.GradientType; import flash.display.SpreadMethod; import flash.display.InterpolationMethod; import flash.geom.Matrix; [Code] .....
Right now I just have a single color as its background via textarea.setStyle("backgroundColor", "0xe3ecca") However, is it possible to say, create a gradient (the only way I know how to do so is with the beginGradientFill that you use while using the drawing API) as a variable and then apply that as the background to the TextArea component somehow?
How do I rotate my gradient around so its not always a left/right gradient? What value do I manipulate? I want to learn how to rotate to specific angles.
Basically I redraw a circular object ("moon") every frame, reposition it and rotate it. I want a gradient fill that's offset to the left (-x) by the circle's radius. Instead of wasting your time talking about what I think it might be, I'll just show you the code . . .
For simplicity's sake, I've changed the colors to blue, red, green (in that order). Only the last one's showing up. I've tweaked the vales in the matrix itself for hours, but I can't really change anything. I can get the gradient fill to center on the circle, but that's the best I've done so far . . .
ActionScript Code: var centerX = Stage.width/2; var centerY = Stage.height/2; var radX = 210;
Is there a way to customize / influence / set a gradient fill for an object? I want to have a gradient background take on different colors depending on an input value... If there is a way, then an explanation / example would be nice... if not, I'll just put a semi-transparent object infront of a black-to-white gradient and assign a solid color to it..
transparent gradient not importing as designed. I created a button in Illustrator and exported as SWF. When I imported into Flash, it is displaying improperly (flawed). What is the full-proof solution for this?
Really don't want to have to go the bitmap route or re-create directly in Flash.
When doing a gradient fill on an area chart, the gradient ratios are used only between the min and max of the chart. The area below the min is then filled with the last color in the gradient.
To make sure that it was using the ratios only between the min and max I inserted a zero (0) into the chart and the gradient expanded to the full height. I also checked the gradient values by creating a with the gradient fill.
How do i get the ratios to be effective through the entire fill not just between the min and max?
In a project, I've got 2 background (one light and one dark). My main background is the dark one and when I move my mouse I wanna show in a small circle with an alpha gradient the light one.
But I don't know how can I do that...
I try and I've got white mask with the light background in my circle or I've just got the dark background and no mask.
If someone already do that and can explain it to me ?
I have created a sprite gradient box as my background in my flash as3 file (using tweenmax). As i'm trying to make this a full screen swf on the browser window, i set the width and height according to the stage.
My trouble is that when I resize my browser, the gradient box does not resize with it... it only does when i refresh the window with the new width/height.
Is there a way I can put a redraw function in an event handler that will recognize the window resize? If this is hard to understand... can my background become bigger at the same time as the window is being dragged to a new size?
