ActionScript 3.0 :: Full Browser Image With A Semi Transparent Background?
Aug 24, 2009
Currently I have link on an HTML page, and when the link is clicked, it opens a flash movie with slideshow and a semi transparent black background. The way I have it set up is as follows
CloseButton.as (the close button for the slideshow)
FullBackground.as (the black background)
MainContent.as (loads the slideshow)
then I have
main.fla (loads the CloseBtn, FullBG, and MainContent)
preloader.fla (loads the main.fla .swf)

This is a thing I developed using Flash and Javascript, to set any image dynamically as a background image of a web page and allow all other page content to scroll over the top of it.
[URL]
Would be interested on anyone's comments feedback, particularly about the flash (source code can be downloaded)

I have been trying to work out how the full-browser background was done here: [URL] It scales in a very elegant way: it never stretches the image, stays centered on the image and never causes ugly blank areas around the image. For me, it's become deceptively difficult to achieve! :-(

I am creating a website where the entire background is tiled and it also contains a photo gallery. Now, the photo gallery has to only appear within a limited height but the width could be similar to the browser window. (The website will be a full browser website with a capability of going fullscreen.). I tried a lot of things but the stage calculation requires to be a little different than the general stage properties.
In general, the height and width of the image is directly proportional to those of the stage. But what I am looking at is for the image to be rescaled proportionally to the width of the stage but the height nneds to be about 20-30% less than the height of the actual stage. Basically the background will be visible in that 20-30% of empty space. (And of course other elements)
My scaling of the image code looks like following,
Code:
function scalePic():void {
if ((stageHeight / stage.stageWidth) < imHeight) {
im.width = stage.stageWidth;
im.height = imHeight * im.width;
[Code] .....
And it also centers the image on the stage based on the new stage size.

I want to embed some video into my HTML page. As background I want to use big picture. And above it I want to insert loop video with (i.e.) walking man.So, can I embed video (without flash and any player controls) in page?Can I decode video with transparent background? Is there any codecs which support transparent background (alpha-channel)?

I've been developing in AS2 for a few years now, and I'm learning AS3 at the moment. I ran into a problem about setting alpha on a PNG image.
I have a movieclip that holds a semi-transparent PNG image which comes straight from the library. Now I want to edit the alpha property of the movieclip. In AS2 it all works fine but when I set the alpha property in AS3 all semi-transparent pixels in the PNG image will fill with black first; then the alpha setting is applied.
Do I need to save my PNG's in particular way or do I need to edit settings in Flash to display correctly?

I'm looking to create a site that has video playing full browser in the background. A very perfect example lies here:[URL]..As you can see, the video is scaled according to stage resize while the menus and such stay where they should like a perfect liquid layout. I've watched the Liquid Layout video (from this site i'm pretty sure?) and understand how to position objects on the stage according to stage resize, but I've never figured out how to scale only the video like that. The only way I've been able to do that is by setting my publish settings to NoBorder with 100% width and height, but that defeats the whole liquid layout because it scales your entire swf. I feel like it's some sort of math I'm not grasping.
I'm probably wrong, but I feel like the way I'd go about doing this would be to set everything up as a liquid layout site; that is specify stage align and scale to TOP_LEFT and NO_SCALE. I'd have my liquid menu items positioned accordingly with a resize function and for the background video I'd use a FLV Playback Component that would be manipulated through another as3 function to scale accordingly. I'd use a Playback Component so as to be able to load multiple external videos (.h264) when a link was clicked. Am I on the right track? AS3 only please!

I am trying to find out if it is possible to a) create a semi transparent box in flash, b) motion tween that box into place, c) subsequently use it to run forms and PHP scripts (connect to a MySQL instance, ect). I know that an exact answer to c) will be long and complex, so a simple (general) yes or no will suffice... but if someone could point me in more detailed direction with a) and b), If you need to see the actual project I'm working on, or if I need to clarify my questions,

Once I have a semitransparent object (with alpha not equal to 1) and put a glow filter on it, the glowing area is visible not only near edges of an object, but also under the object. It changes the whole look of an object, while it (probably by my logic) only should have changed the look of edges.
how to glow (or drop shadow) only edges of an object?

I'm trying to make a modal pop up in my Flash application, not unlike the ASP.NET version seen here. I've already got the dialog box made, but I'm trying to add a semi-transparent gray rectangle over everything behind the pop-up, again like the one used in ASP.NET. Is there a way to do this in ActionScript? It needs to be semi-transparent, not fully, so you can still partially see what's behind it. I'm assuming you could apply this property to a Shape class somehow.

I'm a bit boggled by a MouseEvent/layering problem.
I have a filled Shape, with alpha 0.5, on top of a Sprite. The Sprite has various MouseEvent listeners attached to it.
I'd like the user to be able to click on the Sprite. Unfortunately, Flash doesn't pass the events to the Sprite. (It does, of course, if the shape is unfilled.)
Is there any way to tell Flash to treat this object like an unfilled object, rather than a filled one, for the purpose of MouseEvents?

This is probably an easy task for most of you, but how do i get a transparent image to fade to a background image in Flash? I have several transparent product images (.png or .gif) and a patterend background. I import my .png or .gif image and convert it to a symbol. I drag the symbol on my layer but as soon as i add a keyframe, the product image background turns white and loses it's transparency!

I'm trying to create a website with full screen background images (or possibly, a video) but don't know the best way to approach it. The Die Antwoord site does pretty much what I'm trying to accomplish. I'd also like to know how they can use such high resolution images. If I try to use a high res image, the file size is enormous.I also want to do is to be able to change the background image when a button is clicked. What is the best way to do that with large images? Another site that uses similar technology only with a video is the TV on the Radio site.

I'm trying to create a website similar to this one, where the content is a fixed width and height (i.e. made to fit a 1024x768 screen), but the background image is full screen and scales proportionally when the window is resized.
How can I achieve this full screen background using Flash CS4/AS3?

I was wrote the following code to set the background image in one vBox.
vBox.setStyle("backgroundImage", "PreviewBackground.png");
vBox.setStyle("backgroundAttachment", "fixed");
Where the height and width of vBox was 250 x 350 and the height and width of background image was 400 x 400.The problem is that the background image doesn't show the full image. The image has cropped. How can i show the full image as a background image?

How can I fill my whole background with a big image? The photo is 1400*867 and with the solution here it fills up the width but not the height. I don't care if the photo gets cropped in order to fill up the height too.
The CSS3 way (background-size) is perfect but doesn't work in IE.
If you don't know a way with css/jquery could you direct me to a flash script where I could just enter the path of the image and let flash resize it?

I have an app. in which I have placed a ViewStack with (16) Tabs, and Im using a Timer set up to cycle every five (5) seconds through these VS Tabs automatically.
Each VS Tab has an IFrame included to load a particular web site, and I use the auto cycling to not need to go to each Tab manually and wait each time until the page loads before I can use it.
(Note: The IFrame does not need to do anything else other than to show the page nothing else)
All works very well on the work computer running the app. with CPU activity of around 20 to 30%, but when I address the app. on the sever I have increased CPU activity starting with around 30% on the first sequence, and running the second Tab sequence it is going up to around 90% in Semi-auto or Full-auto modes with five (5) seconds beak in between Tab switches and between each sequence.
To explain more in detail I do have six (6) sequences and an arrangement which uses Semi-auto or Full-auto mode (Looping).
I do use (timerName.reset) instead of (timerName.stop) and have also have used (timerName.removeEventListener .) as each Timer sequence get called separately.

I've spent the past few days having a look for this and no luck so far. Basically I have got a multi-page XML gallery with thumbnails. At the moment the images in the gallery stay their original size. I want to make it so that a) the image takes up the entire page of the browser/stage, and b) the image resizes as the browser does, which I suppose might be in the publish settings.
So my question is how can I size this image so it takes up the entire stage? I've tried fiddling around with Stage.width and Stage.height but no luck so far.
Something like this: [URL]is what I mean.
Attached is my .fla, the actionscript code is all within a key frame inside gallery_mc.

I imported a video into flash and have a transparent photoshop layer to create an iPod skin. The video works fine, but I cannot get the "stage" to be transparent so that you do not see the flash background color behind the iPod skin.

I used a colour gradient background image on my stage for my website.Managed to load up the same background onto the browser background.However, the result is not satisfactory as I can see the website background image boundaries against the browser background.How can I get around this? Or is there a code that allows me to change my website background to transparent so that I can only see one browser background?
