ActionScript 3.0 :: Objects Are Too Small After Resize?
Jan 18, 2010
All I want is to create a line (which is part of a rectangle) with a certain height (60), which I can then resize to another height. This works if I do it by hand (or mouse ), but if I use AS3, the line (or whatever object I'm using) is too small. Not only that, but the bigger the enlargment, the bigger the difference! I have attached an .fla file that contains two examples:On the right a rectangle that is being created with AS3, on the left two lines, one is just a Drawing Object, the other one a copy of that and made into a MovieClip symbolach example will be enlarged (by 200px) and in each one you can see that this results in a gap between the end of the line and the control object (red). Also, I measured the length of the line and it is indeed to short.
So I have a Flex bar chart that resizes dynamically, and if I have only a few items, the height shrinks and the horizontal axis and label shrink along with it. If the height of the chart is small enough, the label shrink down to practically nothing. How can I enforce a minimum height for the axis itself? Or even a minimum font size for the labels? I've tried setting the font size on the axis renderer and the axis label renderer and Flex still wants to resize the labels how it wants.
After read a lot about ball physics, watch some examples and few days of trying making pinball with bitmaps, I use simple (easy to work with) and fast performance Physics AS3 engine for bitmaps [URL] but still cant fix problem: if ball is moving too fast and object on path is too small, there will be no collision detection (code works perfect only with bigger objects or if ball is moving slower). I am not good at physics and maths. Here is function code which make physics for ball on every frame rate (but maybe its better to change it to setTimeout):
function showFrame(e:Event) // onEnterFrame{ var collisions:Array = collisionlist.checkCollisions(); if(collisions.length) // if collision{ var collision:Object = collisions[0]; // get collision information var angle:Number = collision.angle; // get collision angle [Code] .....
How do you publish some movies like this. When you resize your browser, an alert message would say that "THE RESOLUTION IS TOO SMALL" something like that.
But I keep getting an "Error #2030: End of file was encountered." This is (probably) because the class I'm serializing is too big for the "String" object type in AS3. Is there a limitless object for storing an array of characters (or better yet binary), or am I going to have to make my own class? (like one with an array of strings)
I got on stage a bunch of squares (sprites), so when the browser change size, I need to re-draw this squares and re-calculate max numbers of that can fit on the page, and so on..., my issue is I call three functions in the resizeListener
I have is as I add objects from other classes to the stage, is there a way to automatically add them to the resize event I have on the main stage to keep them in position in my fluid flash layout? Currently I am declaring all the variables in the project at the top of my primary class, adding them to the stage in the opening function, and then finally adding them to the resize event.
IE 8 Flash CS4 v10 Windows XP Home SP3 (NOTE: The word "Resize" refers to an HTML change of the movie size; it does not refer to a Window resize)
Objective: Display a transparent 800x600 flash movie in IE, stretching movie to 100% width and height of webpage but keeping the objects within the movie from getting re-scaled. Objects are re-positioned at runtime via ActionScript with values meant to be relative to stage dimensions.
Problem: The movie resize is messing up the object re-positioning. The movie is indeed stretching to 100% of the width & height of the browser window's client area, but the objects are repositioned relative to something else (perhaps screen dimensions, but not sure). Result: Objects which were programatically positioned relative to original stage size are spaced way too far apart in IE, in some cases off the screen entirely, though they were not like this in the Flash editor.Question(s): Why are objects which were positioned within the original stage dimensions being kicked off the browser screen while the movie itself remains entirely on-screen even after resize? What dimensions/values are guiding the automatic post-resize repositioning of the objects? (These proportions appear to be different from the change in proportions of the movie itself.)
I have been looking for a tutorial or thread to help me figure this out. I am trying to make a site that when the browser is resized the objects in the site either resize or keep their position and stay visible. The link below is an example of exactly how I want this to work.[URL]...
Im working in AS2, and Im not sure if this can be done in flash alone or needs to be done in html or a combination of both.
if i wanted to modify the xy size properties of several pieces of media through a looping function and an incrementing variable how could i do it? resize multi objects through loop & incrementing variable
I have an object inside my flash file and i want to lock the object on 0 x-axis 0 y-axis but when i re-size my SWF file my object's location changed to another location how can i fix that?
I'm writing a web based flash app that's written entirely in AS3. I have objects on the screen as part of a GUI. I would like the user to be able to resize the window, or make it full screen. I would like everything to auto-scale with the resize, but also remain in the same relative position on the stage.
I am working on image and i like to scale or resize the image by dragging and resize option.same working as "free transform tool" in flash (design part); i need same functionality in application.
I'm having a bit of a problem here. As per the title, my flash swf file works fine when tested from the IDE, but when I publish it and open it through the browser, the stage doesn't seem to resize along with the window.I post below a bare-bones example. The "back" movie clip should resize, only it remains at the starting dimensions
I have Buttons which I have rotated vertically within a Canvas, that is working fine. The problem occurs, when the user resizes the window to a small size a vertical scroll bar appears, I would rather have each button squashed upto a smaller size.
I have a main movie here that loads in an external swf through a container mc. everything is aligned and positioned to where it should be, and they are also set to that value onresize. the problem is, when my swf is loaded in, it works fine and is in the right position, same when you resize it. BUT, if you resize the window before the swf is loaded, it misaligns, until you resize!!
I've got a large bitmap (1920 x1306) that my client wants as a bg image, scaled to the swf size on load (930 x 575); but that can "grow" up to its original size if/when a user expands the browser window. All the rest of clips in the display list are to remain in place (except for a copyright clip, which they want to always be 14 pix above the bottom of the browser frame. I've tried loading the bitmap dynamically at full size and then using scaleX,scaleY to set it's initial smaller (930x575) size, and I've tried just setting the height/width of the dynamically loaded image using the math of scaleX,ScaleY just in case the scaleX "transformed" the bitmap so that it couldn't return to its original size. Both make the bitmap the right size. But the resize function below did nothing to it, (or the copyright.y.) THEN I tried just putting the bitmap into the display list (both sizing methods work here, too). But even as an original member of the compiled display list, the resize event is still not reaching the target. Everything I've seen on the web says this should work - but...no luck.
I had a quick question, I have a movieclip with 15 frames in it with an image on each frame, and a stop action on each frame. On my main stage I have 15 different buttons, which when pressed will change the movieclip to that particular frame (so pressing button 3 would make the mc go to frame 3). I'm still rather new to AS3, but I figured the most simple way to do this was a function which was called when the buttons are pressed
I need to export a 60 animation from flash. It has text and image animation on the timeline, no actionscript. The swf file when published is 5 mb. When I export as an .mov, it is 768 mb. Also, there is some jumping and stuttering.
Actionscript Code: function createNames(){var counter:Number = 1; for each(var ca:Categorie in arrCategories) if(ca.Name == currentMonster.name) for each(var ch:Channel in ca.Children)
I've got an mp3 file of about 2 secs, that should be looped in my movie, but every time between the 2 secs there is a small pause where there's no sound.[code]...
It's pretty common on many Architectural and Engineering sites to have a small movie on the home page. For example: URL... I've made similar movies for my websites using flash, and there always seems to be a lag and an image icon while the movie to loads. Here is a site where the movie loads unnoticeably: hensonarchitect com. Is there a way to use flash and have the movie load without an image icon placeholder? The flash movie that I have in mind is only 90kb, so a preloader isn't needed.
I guess I did not finish my project yet. I have a script that will stop sound on click of the mouse, but I have a little animation running but I need to stop it with the same click of the mouse ( together with the sound) just insert stop() stop entire project and this is not good, this is a loader and it need to have ability to continue even some one shut sound of.
