View 1 RepliesI am attempting to adapt a face detection application for a project I am working on. It works great, and displays a sprite of a vector square where it detects a face. The problem I am having is that I would like to place a bitmap image (from a source file) instead of a vector square. Here is the snippet containing the drawing of the vector:
Actionscript Code:
/*** Creates a rectangle*/
private function _createRect() : Sprite {
var rectContainer : Sprite = new Sprite();
rectContainer.graphics.lineStyle( 20 , __rectColor , 1 );
rectContainer.graphics.beginFill(0x000000,0);
rectContainer.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
return rectContainer;
}
I'm pretty sure that this is the only part that needs altering in order to swap the square with a bitmap though.
I'm importing and playing an external FLV in my movie using the FLVPlayback component and providing captioning for it using the FLVPlaybackCaptioning component. It's working great. (CS5, AS3, Windows 7)
By default the captioning box plays directly on top of the FLVPlayback Component. I want to separate them, so for instance, i can put content (images and such) in between the Playback component and the caption box.
this is my code it works, but my loader text keeps popping up in the corner not in the middle like I want it to, any one know what I'm doing wrong?[code]
View 0 RepliesI would like the cursor to appear and blink in the first text field in a movie clip that gathers information to be sent to a php. The following does not work. stage.focus = textField; textField.setSelection(textField.text.length,textF ield.text.length); And the only other things I find are for custom cursors. I just want the visitor to see the blinking cursor in the firstName_txt input box when the page appearss. Also, if the visitor tabs from one input text field to the other, the blinking cursor appears in the first three input text fields but not in the fourth. Yet, the visitor can enter text in the fourth input text field.

I have played some more with Flash and come upon something that i would know more about.I tried to make:A scene. when I click the left mouse button on the stage an object(from the librery [graphic]) will be place exactly where the mouse is.I did not really know how to approach this, but tried anyways.
This is my code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, addApple);
Function addApple(event:MouseEvent):void{
//I dont know what to put here to place an object(apple) from the libery
//onto the stage where the mouse is.
};
Ive managed to create a for loop that finds the highest value in an array:
array[0]=max
for(e=0;e<array.length;e++){
if(array[e].value > max.value){
array[e]=max
}
}
but Im trying to create a for loop that places all the values in that array from lowest to highest

It's been a few years since I've last used ActionScript, so I'm a bit rusty Anyways, I have 16 buttons in my library with linkage names btn0-btn15. I can successfully add them onto the stage by saying something like:
Code:
var tempBtn:SimpleButton = new btn0();
stage.addChild(tempBtn);
I'm going to be tinkering with the buttons layout and positions, and I would like to add each of the different buttons to the stage dynamically with a for loop. I've been trying different variations of this:
Code:
for (int i:int=0; i<16; i++) {
var tempBtn:SimpleButton = new ["btn" + i]();
}
but I just can't seem to find the right syntax for doing this correctly.
I have an action script for a movie clip to rotate around (instance_name.rotation -= 1. and this works fine, how ever i need it to rotate around a point outside of the movie clip. i think i need to move the registration point but i dont know how to do this.
