ActionScript 3.0 :: Randomly Show Bitmap Every Second?
May 30, 2011
I'm doing an AIR/FLASH PROJECTOR random bitmap application. The bitmaps(pictures) are stored in a server. In my application, there are 1 button 'ROLL', which will toggle the randomly picking of butmap and show them out.
Q1:Currently, I'm able to retrieve the picture from server when I clicked the 'ROLL' button and show it on flash stage, but how do I set a limit to stop the same bitmap from showing up again and again on my next roll? (it should only show up 1 time)
Q2:The other issue that I dont know how to create an animation every 0.5second, changing the picture to another picture (trying to show the thrilling feeling).For example, when I clicked the ROLL button, the application will randomly pick 1 picture and some other pictures to do a simple animation. The picture will keep changing at an interval of 0.1seconds or so, and will slow down to interval of 0.2seconds, and slow down again and again. Finally, after doing that animation for like 5seconds or so, the "randomly picked picture" will show up. And this randomly picked picture will not show up again at the next roll.

I have a password engine already made. But I got this idea of making 3 different passwords each time the game is being played. I already achieved to set these 3 password and the Input textbox accepts them. The thing is when the game ends, it give a password for another game. I want to set that dynamic text box that give you the password to randomly shows one of the 3 passwords I've set. So, how do I make a function that everytime the game is being played,set a different text on the dynamic text box, from one of the 3 passwords I've set?

Ive created a empty movie clip then tied it in to a bitmap that exists in the library called "red" (I made it available for export). The bitmap does not show at all, when run. I don't want to use the function attachMovie.
var movieClipHandle:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("picture1_mc",this.getNe xtHighestDepth());
var myBitmapData1:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("red");

I am writing a screen scroller for a game I'm making. There's a BitmapData object which holds the background graphic, yet I do not want to show/render it on screen all at once.
For example, I want to show only a 500x500 section of the data but the entire BitmapData is 1000x1000. I wanted to use the scroll() method to scroll the data but my problem is that I cannot restrict how much of the BitmapData is drawn on the Bitmap. I tried setting the height/width properties of the BitmapData to 500x500 (and draw all the 1000x1000), but any data drawn beyond the boundaries I defined is not really drawn.
Another option I considered is to store a different BitmapData object which holds the entire data, and then use copyPixels() from it to the one used on the Bitmap itself, although then I cannot use scroll() and have to use different methods to achieve scrolling.

I have this problem with text set to bitmap text rendering. With fonts like pixel fonts like standard 07_51, Kroeger etc. I can't get them to show the right accents. This shows on stage and in runtime and it occurs with static, dynamic fields and input fields. When I choose anti-aliasing then it's ok, but that isn't the purpose with those pixel fonts, right? I've set the correct font-embedding settings.
I checked it on two computers with Flash CS4 v10 on MacOS X 10.6.2, Belgian Keyboard, FontExplorer Pro for font management.

I'm cutting my teeth in actionscript 3 on a game that has a character running through a world. So, I have set up my Hit Testing by using the bitmap data hit test method, since I figured my world is going to be destructible - it'd be nice to update the level and then redraw it and have the character interact with the new change. (That works beautifully) I am however; a bit confused as to how I have my hit Testing set up. I've been messing around with it, and it works for now - but I'm not sure why.. currently, I have a character set up by using a class I built and using a series of animations I created. So, this character has a walking and falling animation, etc. This is a movie clip.
Then there's a bitmap 'emptyBitmap' with bitmap data created - however; I never really added this as a child to the character. This is sized to the dimensions of my character. My level is created as a movielip, then it's drawn to a bitmap - when the level movieclip is changed, the bitmap redraws, and that's how this updates.

I know the topic of "duplicating" movieclips is a hot issue with the new virtual machine. Luckily, I understand the implications. I only am [currently] interested in duplicating a Bitmap. See, I load an image from an URL using 'flash.display.Loader.load', which is a non-blocking operation in Flash Player.However,I may use multiple copies of the loaded image (which is reported to be a Bitmap, naturally) in the display list at the same time.Hence, I naturally do not want to load the image from an URL every time, because I don't want to wait for a non-blocking call to complete. Nor do I need to - I mean one copy is already loaded, so it should be possible to just "duplicate" it, right?
My idea is to do use the bitmapData property of a Bitmap and pass it to the constructor of a new Bitmap object. I have not tried the following in action, but I want to hear whether any of you did and if the following would not work, what would:
Code:
var original_bitmap: Bitmap;
var copy_of_original_bitmap: Bitmap = new Bitmap(original_bitmap.bitmapData);
LiveDocs mention that the BitmapData being passed to a Bitmap constructor is "being referenced", which to me might suggest it cannot be used twice? There is also the BitmapData::clone() method, which I am not sure is applicable here or not.I know this is a lot of talk instead of just trying this out, but I test so much Flash Player code daily just to see "what works" (which should be documented instead by Adobe),

I'm working on a game, and to keep performance good, instead of addChild'ing 50 new sprites to the stage every second, I decided to have each player draw to their own bitmap, and then to the 'master' bitmap. This introduces an issue though: the second player would override all data the first player has put into to bitmap...My basic debugging proof of concept:
Code:
// bitmap test

In pure AS3, I have a pixelbender and a large bitmap. The pixelbender is configurable with a distance parameter to affect only a small area of the bitmap.

Is there a way to write a bitmap font right into the bitmap being desplayed? Mabey better worded: myBitmap.draw(image, t) draws a picture is there a way to draw text? I'm stuck even if its just a work around in some way I would like to know... (the current work around i have in my head is writing it in a movieclip turning that into bitmap data and drawing it... esentially creating a prototype answering my question... but a built in way would be easier probably).

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.

I'm using Sandy to animate some objects in 3D. What I currently do to images which are EXPORTED in the library, I want to do to some bitmaps that I create using the DRAW technique. But it wont work :-(
CODE FOR 'CREATED BITMAP' :
ActionScript Code:
var bData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(myObject.width,myObject.height);
bData.draw(mask5);
[Code]....
Sandy doesn't seem to treat the 'created' bitmap the same as those that are exported from the library.

I haven't worked very much with bitmap manipulation and I need to create an app that can find a bitmap (or a pattern of pixels really) in another bitmap.Are there other methods of doing it besides iterating through the pixels and using getPixel()?I'm of course looking for the most effective solution.

That's to say,user can upload .ppt file to my server side,then other people can browser these ppts in the page ..
Since I have googled "embed powerpoint in web page" ,it seems that there is not a good idea to implement this and support the cross browser,so I thought the flash.
This is a slide show using the flash: [URL]

URL...that has videos in the work section (click work, then the tv icon or the radio icon at the bottom of the page) that will randomly not load.THe weird thing is that the files have never moved, and yet, the same computer on the same ISP using the same browser that could view the videos 2 days prior, suddenly cannot.I'm also having an issue where the flash won't even load on startup randomly.This had happened one time in the past, and I took the page from a test area of the site and put it live, and it solved the problem. So my last ditch plan z is to make a mirror to link to in case the videos aren't loading for a user.

I need to call external SWF's so they randomly appear within my main SWF. When one ends, the next will start and so on. I searched the forum and found a thread with the code below and have run in to an issue.
Each of the external clips is set up exactly the same... same length, same tweens, etc.
The code below is sitting the first frame, on the top layer within my main SWF:
randomClips = new Array ("Journey.swf", "Doobies.swf", "LedZep1.swf", "PinkFloyd1.swf", "Stones.swf");
function randomBackground() {
[Code].....
The main movie is one frame long and has three layers. The top layer has the Action Script (above), the bottom layer has my background image, and the middle layer holds the empty movie clip named mtClip
When loaded to the server, the movie plays and one of the external SWF's will load. When it ends, I need one of the other SWF's to load. What happens is that rather than randomly playing one of the other SWF's, it repeats the original external SWF. If I refresh the main SWF, it randomly selects one of the external SWF's and it will constantly repeat.
The external SWF's have no Action Script. I tried it with putting a Stop on the last frame, but that didn't help.
