ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Create Bitmap Of Loader Content And Resize It

Mar 10, 2010

I am loading a fairly large image file and want to create a bitmap of the loader content. I want to then use this Bitmap and resize it according to the current dimension of the stage. However, I also want to keep the loader content as "originally loaded" as a reference in case the stage is resized and the user wants to view this particular image again. The way my AS is written as of now, I am manipulating the loader content. How do I not do this? How do I "copy" the loader content so I can manipulate the bitmap copy while leaving the loader content unaltered?

<AS>
var lightboxImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap();
function resizeLightbox():void{
lightboxImage = myLoader.content;
lightboxImage.width = myLoader.content.width;
lightboxImage.height = myLoader.content.height;
[Code] .....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Convert Loader Content To Bitmap

Oct 12, 2009

I've seen mention of there being some security risk with loading images and leaving them in loaders. A few articles I've run across said that you should always draw them as a bitmap when the loading is done.

Is there any truth to this? I have a few loaders I have left in my project, do I need to hand their content off to a bitmap? What is the advantage of always having a bitmap represent the loaded image?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Bitmap Loader Security - Can't Access The Loaded Content

May 3, 2010

I'm writing a simple little test app consisting of 'main.as' and 'test.png', both within the same subdir on my harddrive. I'm compiling via command line with mxmlc, and testing via 'open with...' and Chrome. The code uses flash.display.Loader.load( "test.png" ) - but I can't access the loaded content (or even draw it to a bitmapdata!) due to security exceptions.

My goal is to get the image into something (preferably a bitmapdata!) I can draw to other bitmapdatas, as I understand this is fastest for gaming. I've tried all sorts of things, including creating a 'crossdomain.xml' that goes in the same dir as the above files (and doing the appropriate LoaderContext thing), tried various system.Security things and still no joy.

Actionscript 3 :: Bitmap Too Big - Limitation Is In Bitmap And Loader?

Mar 30, 2011

In AS3, I am loading a png from a zip file (nochump's zip library through ByteArray to Loader). The png can be up to 45k pixels wide but only 120 tall. This creates a problem in flash, as images can only be ~8000 pixels wide. A possible solution would be to split the images into 6 columns somehow. This would probably need to be done in the ByteArray state, because the limitation is in Bitmap and Loader.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader Event.INIT Fires But Loader.content Is Null?

May 9, 2009

The title describes the problem: Loader.load() is firing the INIT event, but in my listener it's reporting loader.content as null. The description for INIT event is "Dispatched by the associated LoaderInfo object when the properties and methods of the loaded SWF file are accessible."I'm loading a lot of JPG images, and 95 percent of the time it works fine; the init listener fires and reports valid loader. content.I absolutely need loader.content available because I need to set the bitmap smoothing property to true.I've tried using Event.COMPLETE and it has the exact same problematic behavior.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Content To Load Into The Loader And Have Its Content Change Once Click On The Other Button Flash 8

Aug 15, 2009

I'm have made some buttons (movie clip) and when I click on it, I want a file (home.swf) to load in a loader (mx.contents.loader) and I want the other buttons to do the same, all load into the same loader. I have no Idea how to do that. The way I have it set up now, the home.swf will load over the entire screen and that is not what I want. I just want the content to load into the loader and have its content change once I click on the other buttons. Here is a copy and past of that I have at the moment, I'm using Flash 8 to do it all.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load External SWFs, AddChild(Loader) Versus AddChild(Loader.content), Etc?

Jul 29, 2009

I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);

This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);

[code]....

What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Get Bitmap To Resize

Dec 17, 2009

I've got an image that I need to programatically add to the stage. In Flash CS4 I did an Import to Library, Export for ActionScript, gave it a name 'myphoto', then inside of a custom class that extends Sprite, I do this:

var bmd:BitMapData = new myphoto(100,200);
var myphotoBitMap:BitMap = new BitMap(bmd);
addChild(myphotoBitMap);

It shows up on the stage much larger than 100 x 200. I tried
 
myphotoBitMap.width = 100;
myphotoBitMap.height = 200;
 
but that gets ignored, the image is still far too large.
 
I tried resizing after the Added and AddedToStage events, thinking maybe my resizing commands were not working because the image was still being processed in some way, but this doesn't work either.

Flex :: How To Resize Images (Bitmap) Using AS3

Jul 8, 2011

I am loading an image using a Loader. Once loaded, I can get the bitmap data using Bitmap(event.target.loader.content).bitmapData.
However since the images I am loading are quite large (around 2000 x 1600), I would like to reduce the size and create a new smaller bitmap maybe 200 or 300 pixels wide, sort of like a thumbnail. I think it has to do with creating a new BitmapData with the new size. However I am not able to get that working properly.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Resize Bitmap Data After Draw

Mar 1, 2012

So I am working on this project for work and we have a bunch of sprites with transform matrix that contain the rotation, scale, x, and y coordinates of various parts of a character, i.e arms, legs etc. so we are then drawing the individual sprites onto the same bitmap data. Then we store it in a vector and display it later.

The problem is the models are too big. So I want to resize them, without having to rebuild the entire matrix, since I don't want to go through every matrix in the sprites and manual calculate the scale, rotation, x, and y after it has been made samller. Is there a easy way to do this? To resize the bitmap data and maintain the data that is already set up to construct the model? I can't share the code but the psuedo code is: we create a bitmapdata of a specific width and hight.

We the loop through all the children of a wrapper sprite and do a bitmapData.draw of each of the children and use their matrix for the second param, and then have it build to the bitmap.rect.

Flash :: Copy To Bitmap Loaded In Sprite From Loader

Feb 25, 2010

I want to load an external image (dest) and display it on the stage, and i want to load another image (src) which will not be visible. When i hold the left mouse button on the image that appears on the stage, then a function that start copies the src image to the dest will be invoked. Actually i want to reproduce the scratch effect on an image that hides another underneath. here is my code [ the copypixels function is triggered on mouse_move event for debug purposes ]

package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.BitmapData;

[Code]....

Although the two images are loaded into memory and the first one is shown on the stage, when the mouse_move events triggers the corresponding handlers the copy does not work.

Flash - Auto-resize Of Loader And Loaded SWF?

Jun 10, 2011

is there a way to set the loaded SWF's height and width to always use 100% of the Loader's height and width? pretty much like when you're embedding a swf to an HTML page... I know that you can do this by setting the width and height of the Loader on every stage resize, but is there another way wherein you can just specify height and width is 100% and then loaded SWF will automatically resize according to stage and Loader's current dimensions?

try loaded a SWF file which has coordinates based listeners and it seems that the loaded SWF doesn't reposition its listeners correctly even if the stage is already resized... take this swf for example [URL] i tried using an SWFLoader in flex which scales the content and also a normal AS3 flash.display.Loader and it seems that both fails to reposition the listeners correctly.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader Resize Not Working In Distributed SWF?

Jul 5, 2009

I have recently created a game in Flash CS3 with AS3 which displays a random picture (this is a pretty integral part of the game).I have written a small procedure to resize the picture to an appropriate size for the flash application. This is as follows:

ActionScript Code:
function onComplete(ev:Event):void {
var maxheight = 240;
var maxwidth = 400;

[code]....

Here is where it is called, please just take for granted that d_arr[1] contains the correct URL of the image I want to load :-)

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onComplete);

[code]...

This resizes the picture when it is fully loaded. This seems to work fine on my own site, but on the sites to which mochi ads has distributed it, it doesn't resize the image at all, even if it is left to fully load.
