ActionScript 3.0 :: Recreate Pen Tool Inside It?
Mar 4, 2012
I've been looking all over with no luck for a way to code the pen tool in AS3. What i want is, in the flash application, the pen tool as it functions in Flash itself. So, for example, i push Ctrl + Enter and test my program, then can use the mouse to click and create a point, click again and it connects with a straight line, or click and drag to create a curve. I don't need anything like hinges where you can go back and edit curves, i just want the click/click drag line functionality.

I would like to recreate the flash selection tool's functionality. To clarify, I created a drawing program that uses the drawing api. Now if a user draws a circle, I would like them to have the ability to stretch and mold it like you can in flash by hovering close to the edge so the ) cursor shows up.

I'm doing some experimenting to try and get the file size smaller and I need to open my swf to make sure some components didn't embed them selfs within the swf. Is there a tool, or a way to open swf to view the contents inside the swf? Such as winrar (which doesn't work) or something of that sort?

Okay so this task needs to work like this:
1) Flash environment starts (as3 code base)
2) Flash receives data from xml
3) PHP tool inserts a dropdown menu of choices into flash environment.
4) Player selects from dropdown
5) PHP captures selections and writes to xml
So first of all, I dont want to do this another way, it has to be exactly like that. Now that having been said, i have accomplished the first two steps. Here is the extremely basic xml i am working with:
< LISTING HELMET="1" TORSO="2" PANTS="1"/>
This stores 3 string id codes which flash loads up. Inside of flash i load those three values and use them to index movieclips to their correct frame. This is done.
So now i need to write a PHP tool that creates three dropboxes on the flash stage, each box should list red, blue and yellow. When the player makes a selection in the dropbox the PHP tool needs to alter the three xml entries to record the player choice. Can you do this with PHP? Or do the dropdown boxes HAVE to be in AS3 and the PHP just be about transferring the data only? As a bonus, as the player makes his choices the PHP tool would update the variables in flash so the images change without rebooting the flash envronment..

I found that .fla files do not save in Flash CS4 when the Deco tool or Spray Brush tool is selected. Is this a bug? Or is there a workaround to this issue.

When I use the Flash CS4 brush tool in "Paint Inside" mode it erases part of the strokes around shapes. For rectangles it erases the stroke on the top and left hand side where the brush head crosses it, though it never seems to affect the other sides. The effect is less consistant with ovals, but it breaks the strokes at some points. I am using Flash CS4 version 10.0.2 on Windows XP, and I have checked for program updates through the Help menu. Here are two examples:

Im trying to convert my company's logo from a jpg to a flash movieclip...I need to do this because the jpg has a static background of white...but I need the background to be transparent so that only the text graphix show up above everything else...assuming I can get a hold of the font used for the logo...how would I do all the fancy shading/lighting with the "bent horizon" look across it? I am by no means a designer...merely a wannabe developer...so I know nothing as far as the pretty part of flash is concerned...here is the logo I am trying to duplicate..

I want to load in external swfs into an mc on the root called 'holder'.In As2, I would just do loadMovie("whatever.swf", this.holder); And if I loaded another swf into that same holder it would replace the contents with the new swf.
But now, I'm trying As3 and doing..var i =new Loader();i.load(new URLRequest("contact.swf"));this.holder.addChild(i)
When I repeat this code, for another external swf, I want it to replace the first one, but it appears to not be doing that. I fear that this addChild, is simply adding more mc's within my main holder mc.
So I don't know how to match the functionality that I liked from As2.

I'm trying to recreate the sky with a rotating clip in the shape of an arc. I've tried the built-in timer that changes the rotation, I've tried the TweenMax class, and I've tried hand-building the animation with a motion tween. In all cases, the movement is jerky--smooth for about five frames, then a sudden jerk of motion. What can I do to make this animation smoother? Clip is about 2400px wide, 400px high, with a reg point about 3000px away that it rotates around.

Im working on a project where i have 5 buttons on one side and a blank window in the middle of the screen. when a button is clicked an external swf is loaded with movieclips of text based on each catergory. 2 of these movieclips of text are long and a request for an index at the top of the page has been made. everything in the movie is working so far except the page index. i wanted to create this similiar to the way an html index works with page anchors.
i have made all the letters and converted them to movieclips. ive added event listeners to those buttons so that the main window's y position is moved when they are clicked. the main swf window will jump down to the desired position but the scroll button remains at the top and theres no way to scoll back up to the top of the page.

I have been trying to recreate the rollOver swapdepth effect (above). Works OK but slow using mc's on the main timeline using the swapDepth behaviors.It appears (on the [URL]) that each swf is loaded independently on top of the main with their own preloaders.This seems vastly more complicated than just swapping depths on a single timeline.

So I'm using PixelFume's Active Blur class to recreate the effect, though somewhat simpler so I rewrote some of it and it seem screwed up to me. I have it on the first frame of an .swf that gets loaded into and container clip in the main .swf via loadMovie. It does what I want it to do, but everytime you load the page it comes up slower and slower. If you click the button to load it like 15 times, it's pretty much 1fps.
The code is as below:
Code:
import flash.filters.BlurFilter;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.geom.Point;
var bottom = bg.getDepth();
this.createEmptyMovieClip("bgBlur", bottom+1);
[Code] .....

i want to send an object and its properties (that have been manipulated) to my server. I then plan to re-create this object and automatically create a screenshot of the object (i do not want to do this client side). i'm planning to use POST and some php for each property as its changed, and then load this data into a server side as3 script. i would like this server side script to take the object in automatically, and create an image server side - is there anyway to doing all this while not prompting for any input (from what i've learnt, flash needs a prompt before saving a file)? i haven't used flex, could it be used here?

I've recently created a Super Text Transition class - its pretty much perfect, except theres on thing that niggles me.
It works by splitting up dynamic textfields into many movie clips, one for each letter - but I cant work out how to position the newly created letter movie clips (each containing a dynamic textfield with only one letter in them) in the right way so it looks exactly like the original text would in the textfield.
Im assuming Im not taking into account certain variables - between textWidth/textHeight, _width and _height of the letter movie clips, leading, letterSpacing blablabla. know the variables to use to recreate a text field with lots of letter mcs?

First time on the site. I have been desperately looking for information on this transition, but I have only gotten so far. I was wondering how to recreate the effect that this site has when transitioning between pages. [URL] As you can see, there is a very nice fade out, then in effect. I know that u can fade in with a motion tween, but when u click the next link, the page just jumps into the next one instead of fading. How can I get that fading both in and out effect?

0: Its not rocket science, but my surname aint Oppenheimer either so... read on if ou dare.
1: this is my third attempt at mastering OO and flash CS5 so, i hope we can all have a laugh after.
2: In short.. I added a 64x64 tiled movie in flash. Read it out in an array, in a.. well original way(just to see if i could get it to work so stop lauging already), and tried to recreate them using a flash class.
2a: The recreate class works but shows the Tiles in a random order, every time a new one?! this is what happens..
