ActionScript 3.0 :: Way To Clear A Drawing
Mar 25, 2012
I have a project I am working on in which I would like to teach how to cash a scratch off card. I have made the scratch and made it so it will "scratch", however my masking technique seems to not be working how it should...
The idea is that the user would "scratch" the card and then hit "Next" after that it would load a new frame (Progress Bar would move) and then do what they need to on that frame, and so on.
However it would seem that Flash is keeping the users "drawing" and still allows them to draw after the first frame, which is not what I want.[code]...

is it possible to somehow use a the clear() function on a line that has been dynamically drawn only at a certain point? i need a line to be drawn and then gradually erased with time. currently i'm drawing a green line and then a few seconds later, a start up a function that creates a white line above it. it works great if this line is above a white background, but if it's above some other element, you see a white line.

I'm working on a game whose background has many layers that each scroll at different speeds.
Inside each layer I have a Sprite, I've started using graphics.beginBitmapFill, but what I've found is that the graphics.clear() function doesn't actually clear the contents set by the previous call to graphics.begin.BitmapFill. Each frame, I adjust the matrix to shift the layer as needed. Then, I call graphics.clear() and graphics.beginBitmapFill() with the adjusted matrix. Since my layers have alphas in the bitmap, I can see the contents that was drawn the previous frame.

Basically I've got a reasonably complex drawing object in a fla and I want to reproduce it in a class definition using the drawing api. However obviously this is a tedious task, so is there some trick or automated method of doing this?
Last time I needed to do this it was a drawing of an arrow and I ended up writing down x,y,width,height values for everything but this one has curves in it which I don't have experience with drawing anyway.

I cannot get this to work. Without the "var drawing", "var drawing being true or false" and the "if statement", it works fine. But I need to add the "var drawing" so that you can only draw if you turn it on by pressing the "draw_btn" button. Note, I do not get an error, the script "apparently" contains no errors. Here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
var drawing = false
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("myLine", 0);

I've created a drawing tool which allows the user to draw on the canvas, the problem is that if I try to draw over a movieclip nothing happens. Is there a way I can allow for the user to draw over movieclips? For example if I had a background of paper?
Here's the code I'm using for it:
// This code is for drawing the lines on the page
//1.
var drawingLine:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChildAt(drawingLine,0);

I need to draw on stage about 40,000 4x4 squares each a different color. The color is determined by an xml file. I have this working in as2 and have converted it to as3 the problem is the amount of time it takes to draw is causing cs4 to time out. I have extended the script time out to 60 seconds. In cs3 as2 it would draw the squares in about 15 seconds. I was hoping as3 cs4 would improve performance but seems to be the opposite. I have tried several methods such as adding children and various drawing variations. the bellow seems to work the best, but is still causing flash to crash.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.Graphics;
import flash.display.Shape;

this might be a very simple thing to do, buuuut... I've got two UILoaders on my stage, when you click various buttons it makes various pics appear in them, I want to put a button on my main stage that would clear the images out of the UILoaders when it was clicked, and would just leave them blank. Is this possible?

I have a similar problem where I want a text field that by default has the word NAME in it, to become empty when a user clicks on it.
The text field has the instance name 'nam' and is inside a movie with the instance name 'input_text'.
I've searched around and found samples of code where everyone keeps suggesting this:
Code:
textboxinstancename.onSetFocus = function() {
textboxinstancename.text = "";
};

At the moment I have Clock and if I start it a message appears just above the clock saying "Timer started" and if I press the stop or reset, another message appears saying "Timer stopped" or "Timer reset", the only problem with it is that the previous message(s) are still on the screen.
I have an example attached below. I am wondering is there any way to get the textfield to refresh/remove the previous message before showing the current one?

I've got a video page with an XML based playlist all contained in one swf. I can us flash vars to load in variables to the swf to make it play a specific video (eg.[URL]), if you would like to link directly to a video.Is there a way that when i than click to play another video from within the playlist, that it would also clear the variable from the URL? Or have it update the variable (so it would switch from ?vidID=13 to ?vidID=20 for example), and do so without reloading the swf? (the swf loads with a main video page, which lists new videos etc., and than you can choose videos from the playlist)Right now, when you direct link to a video, than choose another video to watch it keeps the same video ID within the URL... which can be a problem if people just copy the URL thinking that is the correct one.

it looks like the problem is that the interval has not been clear so every time i click away from my slide show (for example navigate to my contact swf) and then come back to the slide show the pictures keep looping on top of each other and fading at the wrong times too.
var id, current;
var k = 0, p = 0;
var slide = 1;
function loadXML(loaded) {

I have two key frames on the Stage. The first one is empty; the actual movie starts from the second frame. Under some circumstances I have to clear everything on the stage and reload the movie. I remove all the movie clips and go back to the first frame. Unfortunately, it doesnt work with components. Can somebody tell me how I can remove everything from Stage? I tried btn.destroyObject(btn._name) but it seems it doesn�t work (the object cannot remove itself). And after several times I move back to the first frame, the components go broken

I'm doing a simple navigational menu and the idea is that when you rollover certain buttons, a linked movie clip appears in a certain spot and any other linked movie clips disappear off the stage. I heard about a bug with AS3 in CS4 and tried the following method but it's not working. All the movie clips stay on the stage. Nothing disappears. Where am I screwing up?
