ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Print A Masked Shape?
Dec 10, 2010
I'm doing an application where the user can draw shapes on a movieclip, and the 'paint' in those shapes are masked by a background the user chooses before painting. So far, so good.
The problem is, the user is able to print the draw he just did. But when he hits the 'Print' button on the application, the printer prints either the whole mask, or the shape all in black (according to what movieclip i put in the PrintJob function), which it's not good.Is there anyway I can print this masked shape?

I need to print a movieclip that has a mask, the mask is there because the content will be larger than the screen, so the movieclip has a scrollThe thing is that when I print the movieclip, it only prints the visible area (the masked one), and if I remove the mask it only prints the visible area (up the the stage height).

Is there anything to opposite of setMask. Actually I want that, when I click a button then a movieclip will be masked by some predefined shape (working as mask object). when I click another button he mask will be gone. That means the object under the mask will go out of the mask.

I am trying to create a print button on the last frame that will allow the user to print just that frame. I've tried using the printjob object, but all that I can get to happen is print a blank sheet of paper. Here is the code that I have so far:
function printScore(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();

I am trying to make a print button that will print the contents of a mc...this mc basically holds a dynamically drawn floorplan which can be zoomed and panned...I want to be able to print the contents of the mc, and only what is viewable in the mc at the time of the print...so if you are zoomed in, all that prints are the actual objects visibly seen in the mc...I think it may be with the print command using bmovie but I have no idea how to assign a #b lable to the frame.

I am not able to print more than 5 pages in one go. I want to print almost 12 pages in one print job. I am creating the movieclips of each page by adding the dynamic data in to it and store in an array. When all the movieclips created and stored in an array(pagesAry) then it call the following function to print those pages:
private function sendToPrinter():void
{
pj = new PrintJob();
try

Getting error: Print job canceled as it took more than 15 seconds to complete.

I am trying to take a snapshot of the masked region of an image... so, I load my image then perform the following functions:
private function manageLoadedImage(e:Event):void
{
_bitdata = e.currentTarget.content; // get the bitmap
_bithold.addChild( _bitdata ); // add the bitmap to a sprite on the stage
[Code]....
I have a movie, inside that movie I have a thumbnail editor name ThumbEdit.
ThumbEdit has a movieclip on its stage called "holder1". In the document class of ThumbEdit I create a sprite "_bithold" and place it on the stage at holder1.x and holder1.y. When the image loads, I add the image to _bithold and then mask _bithold with a shape. So, I want to grab a snapshot of the masked region of _bithold but I'm not sure how I should go about doing that.

I have a three masked pictures all are movie clips on the main timeline and the mask works ok. The problem I am having is a set of buttons on the main timeline which allow you to move between the frames the three pictures are on. They allow me to do this ok but when the movie is started the first time one of the buttons is pressed the masked pictures can be seen on screen briefly before the screen displays the material properly.
This is the script I am currently using:
room_pic.setMask("mc_mask");
mc_mask.onEnterFrame=function(){
this._x=this._x+this._xmouse*0.300000;
this._y=this._y+this._ymouse*0.500000;}
I have three layers the main picture which is a bitmap; the three masked pictures are in the layer above this; and the mask object is in a layer above this and is a movieclip.

I have an empty movie clip(say A) on a layer and then I have masked it with a display object(say a rectangle). Now I have an movie clip(say B) containing a input text field and I am adding this movie clip(B) dynamically in movie Clip(A).
When I compile it, the input text field is taking input for sure, cz I have applied some traces on change event of that field. But the characters inside the field are not showing up.

ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Base extends MovieClip {
public var baseHP:int = 50;
var newRect:Shape = new Shape();
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Shape. 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Shape. What does it mean by "undefined method"? I am somewhat of a newby, so sorry if there are any stupid errors

This has me stumped and frustrated! I have some simple bitmaps that I've masked with graphics. When I use the playhead to watch the movie, it looks fine. When I preview or publish, the masked images are missing completely. What could I be doing wrong? A couple additional notes - the layer with the graphic (symbol) is rotated and the layer above it (mask) is also rotated at an angle. I don't see how that should matter at all...

I need to find a way to copy a masked bitmap. I have a bitmap on stage, and a user drawn sprite that acts as a mask. I need to capture/copy the masked area bitmap, maintaining the transparency created by the masking to eventually encode as a png.
I could find no documentation on how to accomplish this using copyPixels(), or any other directions.

I have a Movie Clip object with a timeline, and it has 3 layers: a layer to stop the timeline at the last frame, a layer with regular drawing with mask attribute and a layer containing a target movieclip with the instance named 'target', that is masked by the layer above.
The drawing is very simple, not even a movieclip, just vector drawing. It's supposed to show the target movieclip only on regions where the mask layer has some drawing, right?
So, I created the method to load an image, listen to the complete loaded event and add the image to the target masked movieclip, but it disappears after the first frame! If i delete the layer with the mask drawing, works fine.
Here's a smaller version of the code.
package
{
import flash.display.*
import flash.events.Event;

Having some strange problems with masks in FMX 04: We're developing an accordion style interface. The problem is that buttons and images/mcs that are outside the "masked area" of each module are somehow clickable, or are "invisibly" pushing other content up/down. So basically the buttons/mcs are hidden, but Flash is still seeing them somehow. Is this normal mask behavior? Is there a solution besides setting the button to _visible = false? This is effecting my interface in other ways as well.

Basically I'm trying to resize images in flash to fit the masked area but proportionately....
My mask area is:
Code:
width = 478;
height = 420;
now consider that the the max width I want my pictures to be. This doesn't have to be exact. Now what I came up with to resize proportionatly is:
Code:
//width & height are my mask deminsions ( which i wanna resize my pics to)
//width_orig & height_orig are the deminsions of each new loaded pic.
height = (width / width_orig) * height_orig;
width = (height / height_orig) * width_orig;
That does scale them proportionatly but some of the times it will resize a lil bit smaller than the image area which I don't really want. Like I said this doesn't need to be exact. I would prefer it to be a lil bit bigger than the masked area. I just need to make sure the pics are scaled proportionatly.
