ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Text To Draw An Image
Oct 13, 2009
I need to do everything with AS3 since both the image and the text is loaded with an XML. Practically I have a picture and above it I'll put a white level with alpha 70%, but as you can see in the jpg the white level has a "hole" in it that is created by a text.I thought that a way could be to convert the text in a bitmap and then, if it is possible, to use the newly created bitmap to create the "hole" with the white level.

I am trying to draw this image dynamically (attached image) so for example if user gives me value of 24 the graph has to be able to draw circles like in the image and split circles into 24 sectors ( draw 24 angled radiuses from the origin) ... How could this be done ?
The trick is once I accomplish this stage I need to be able to track intersections between each radius and 3 circles!!! Well the idea of the graph is that each radius is an answer to a question and can have a dot in the origin , intersection with first circle , second or third (each one represents answer 1 or 2 or 3 or 4... then it connects all dots on each radius depending on the 24 (in this example 24) answers. I've done this witha static graph where I knew there were gonna be 24 but now it needs to be first drawn dynamically because user chooses the number of question.

I'm trying to write some ActionScript which will accept a mask and an image, then mask the image and put a border around the result (assuming that the mask is always 100% opaque).
For example, if my mask is a poorly drawn star, and my image is a bunch of flowers, I want the result to be a poorly drawn star with flowers inside it and a border around it. Something like this:

Here's my code :

I am making a snow boarding game in AS3. The problem I am having is that I want to leave a trail in the snow behind the board.
I have had a think and feel that the best way of achieving this would be to use the lineTo() method to draw a line form the snowboards previous position to its current position. If I do this all of the way down the slope I would end up with a line almost 23000 pixels long which seems extremely large and will have a major impact on performance.
If I were to convert the trail movieclip to a bitmap would it improve performance? I am targeting a minimum of flash player 9 which I have found to have issues when handling bmp's over 2880 pixels so I think this method might not work.

I am trying to create a gallery where the thumbnails scroll across the bottom and when you click on the thumb a new large image opens up on top of it from the same image.
What i would like to do is open up the large image but draw a box around this image so it blanks out the background of the site and all you see is that picture.
Its a similar function to the way this site works;

I have a MovieClip that has 2 images inside it:
1) An image from the FLA's library.
2) An image that is loaded dynamically from a server (read from XML file).
When I try to draw the MC into the BitmapData, I get a blank image.
Code:
ActionScript Code:
var destImg:BitmapData = new BitmapData(_root.picW,_root.picH,false);
destImg.draw( mcPicture );

So i've got a piece of an app that's grabbing the JSON result from a Twitter search, then calling a Loader to grab profile images for each result to place next to the text of the result.[code]when it's trying to rescale and draw the bitmapdata.I have a LoaderContext checkPolicyFile = true set when it loads the actual user image source, I have allowDomain and loadPolicyFile set for crossdomain.xml at URL... and I basically have looked at and tried everything in all of google and I still keep getting these security errors and not having the images shown properly.

the problem may be a simple one but I can't figure it out. I have an image loaded into BitmapData. now I want to take text from a textinput and put it on the BitmapData. Basically it's drawing a text on the BitmapData and get the result as another BitmapData that will consist of the original BitmapData with the text drawn over it on a specified position

Is there any way to draw text in a DisplayObject or Shape using only ActionScript? The only way I can find on the web is by creating a TextField, but I can't add a TF to a DisplayObject or Shape.
DisplayObject implements IBitmapDrawable which can be passed as an argument to the draw function of a BitmapData object, which then can be drawn using graphics.beginBitmapFill.[code]...

I know that there is some maths formula involved, I am having problem getting the maths formula..I want my text appear to be parellel with my line drawn, something like this: this is my actionscript coding for the drawline & text input:

I am using the draw() method of the BitmapData to encode a jpeg of part of the image. Now this should be easy enough given the object I want to draw to the bitmap is on the stage at design time so I know its location and dimetions exactly! Heres the code I have in place.
Code:
var myBitmapSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData ( street.width, street.height, false, 0x333333);
myBitmapSource.draw(street, null, null, null, new Rectangle( 96, 5, 571, 450 ), true );
I know for a FACT that no part of the street clip I am drawing out is in negative space, and it's registration is (0,0). However, it cuts off A lot of the top of my image. y=5 in the above rectangle is where I need the top to be, but it cuts the top off of the image... even if I change it to 0, it has no effect.

how to draw a character like Sprite, so that I can do whatever I want with it.I've seen FIVe3D, which has an automated system which exports an AS file with a description about each of the characters (so that they are represented as motifs - it gets the edges of the glyph and parses it into a script with simple actions as lineTo and curveTo).But this example uses JSFL in order to parse the font (jsfl has functions like contours, interior, getHalfEdge, getControl).

I'm trying to do some lean blitting for an object that rotates by rotating it once at startup and capturing a BitmapData snapshot of each 5 degrees. The problem I'm having is that the draw() method of the BitmapData object is only picking up pixels in the MovieClip that are below and to the right of the registration point. If I change the MC so that the registration point is in the top left corner, I sometimes get what looks like most of the pixels, but the entire object rotates into and out of the frame, since it's rotating around the corner and not the center.

I'm trying to create the following component: Just for information, the blank space will contain a text control, and I'm creating a component that represents the black corner with the (i) icon and the "promotion" text. The part I'm having issues with is this component representing the black corner with the diagonal text. The text has to be able to hold 2 lines. And the black corner has to be able to adjust to the text's size. What's more, the text has a rotation... I'm having some doubts on how to do this:
Should I have different controls for each text line? Should I draw the text in the shape (after doing the rotation) or should I just overlap both components? [When I talk about drawing the text in the shape, I mean in the same way as asked in this question] Is there any way to get the proper size of the triangle shape without doing some extravagant calculations?

I'm drawing a textfield onto a bitmap which I use as texture for a 3D object. I'm listening for Event.change, and so whenever the user adds a character I redraw the texture. But to really give the 3D object a 'interactive textfield feeling', I want to draw text selections and draw the caret (the blinking text cursor), but by default these a not drawn when using bitmapData.draw(textField), nor can I find a Event to listen for 'textSelected'.
//is there any event that catches text selection / blinking of text-cursor?
textField.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, redrawTexture);
//...
//is there any way to draw text selection / text-cursor in the bitmap?
bmpData.draw(textField);

I need to be able to draw a thick patterend line between 2 points in AS3, I can't use the draw API because it doesn't all me to actually put detail (pattern etc) into the thickness of the line, I thought about perhaps using the line to create a bitmap version and then using that as a mask, but I remember many years ago seeing some examples that use a movieclip as a source for a line.

I am having an issue with using BitmapData.draw(stage). I am getting the following error:
SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/bla...bla...bla.swf cannot access null. No policy files granted access. Here is a portion of my code:
var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(2800, 2100); bd.draw(stage);//this is where the error happens All of the files referenced (.xml/.jpg/.swf) are located in the same local folder as the main .swf. How do I get around this error? The main objective is to print the stage using PrintJob(). I am using Flash Professional CS5.5 and publishing to Flash 10.0/10.1. Let me know if I need to supply any more info.

I know that using delta of the scrollEvent will give me direction but everytime i try to increment and decrement the y value of the image the image doesn't follow the line of text perfectly it tends to "crawl" if you will.
