I've made most of my application now, which allows the user to draw on a canvas, I'm just not sure on how I would go about creating a button which allows the user to switch to an eraser, or what code I would even use?
View 3 RepliesI have a requirement to create a drawing tool. I have completed till where on mouse down i can draw and on mouse up i stop the drawing. Now i want a eraser in place; something very similar to what is there in paint. So on mouse down of the eraser and moving over the line segment should erase the portion of the lines.
View 5 RepliesI did make a eraser tool. But once I begin to erase a layer, the background layer is visible. I want the layer just below the topmost layer to be visible.
For eg consider 2 layers. Layer2 is above Layer1. When I perform erase on Layer2, I see the stage background. I want to actually see Layer1 when I erase from Layer2.
Here is the code I used: The comment entry shows that, I have tried that possiblity.
import flash.display.BitmapData;
var linkageId:String = "myimage";
var myBitmapData:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap(linkageId);

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'm making a Flash game, and I've encountered a really weird problem while trying to draw a polygonal shape in Box2D.
Here's the code I use:
var fixtureDefs:Array = new Array();
...
var fDef:b2FixtureDef = new b2FixtureDef();
fDef.density = 0;
[code]....
Where vertexArray is a valid array containing 4 b2Vec2 vertices, making up a convex shape.The problem is, when I test, collisions don't work right for that body. Most other objects -enemies, user-controlled characters - pass straight through, as if the body isn't there at all. Some raycasts pass through as well.
Infuriatingly enough, one kind of bodies I have (a custom enemy) somehow does detect the body and collides with it. The raycasts that particular kind of enemy attempts do work - when your character hides behind the polygon, it's like they can't see him.The other weird thing: when I try the same code, only go for SetAsBox instead of SetAsArray, it works exactly as it should.I'm using a custom ContactListener class, but I haven't done any contact filtering (unless it's possible to do that without realising).I'm using the Flash 9 version of Box2D 2.1a.
I'm trying to construct an animation illustrating the angle of a circle.The user types in a value and the handle gets rotated on a timer tick. (Press Enter or the ndra-button to see the effect): Example So far so good.Now - my problem is when the rotation gets bigger than 360 degrees. I would like the arc's alpha to get darker, to see it draw upon the "existing" arc line. But I don't know how to do that and I can't find code for doing it, either.[code]The DrawingShapes.drawArc method comes from here.If anyone could point me in the right directon on how graphic updating works. I tried not removing the lineHolder from stage when it's updated, but that just made the line's alpha 1 instantly. I would like it to "gradually" get filled in when the arc exceeds 360 degrees.
View 1 RepliesAs the heading dictates, i want to place bitmap files on the faces of the 3D object that i have created.Basically i found this tutorial code on a 3D rotating cube that is able to be rotated by the mouse. I have modified it to change its shape from a cube to a 'plane' or rectangular style object.
Code:
var vertsArray:Array = [];
var facesArray:Array = [];

Want to get custom image and which should be dragabble into drawing area...Below is the sample design which exactly i am looking for.
How to get custome image which i have rounded in red mark aslo i t should have input and output ports for ex:For TwoWaySplit.EU.OTHERS it contains IN as inputport and for Outputports:OTHERS and EU.same in the case with TwoWaySplit.US.OTHERS it contains IN as inputport and for Outputports:OTHERS and US and for main component it contains one input port and three output ports as shown in the diagram.Along with that node it should also display those ports and also when we move the node those ports should also move.
I'm trying to make annotations on an image. I want to store all these annotations into a collection so that I can later remove or edit particular note(annotation).I'm creating a UIComponent instance for example markUp and doing
markUp.graphics.lineStyle(2, drawColor);
markUp.graphics.moveTo(x1, y1);
markUp.graphics.lineTo(x2, y2);

View 3 RepliesIf you see google finance or other such charts, they usually have a small pentagon on the chart that indicates when the dividend was paid. Note the D markers in the screenshot [URL]. In this link you will see A,B,C,D .... along the charts X-Axis. If you choose a larger data range say 2005- 2010 , then you will see blue dividend markers along the x-Axis. Is there any thing in Flex that will allow us to do that?

For the game I am making, I'm using a self-made sprite managing system.I've got three classes: SpritesManager, SpriteGroup extends Movieclip and Sprite extends Movieclip.The idea is: SpritesManager is holding an object: "mainSprites", SpritesManager also hasa method "newGroup", wich creates a new SpriteGroup in mainSprites.In this way I want to make a system for creating and managing some sort of Movieclip-tree.For example:mainSprites.enemies.badEnemyThe method newGroup in SpritesManager has a param "name" wich is the name of the SpriteGroup to create.Here's where I'm stuck: how do I create a new SpriteGroup referenced to as "name" in mainSprites?

Mac OS 10.4.11; Flash CS3.I cannot change the tool any more. It's stuck on the eraser. It doesn't erase anything, but I can't change it to another tool.I uninstalled Flash, preferences and all, and re-installed it, but the problem persists. Interesting is, my customized workspace is still there, even though I had all preferences and anything else that has the name "Flash" deleted.At the same time the computer opens both CD trays when booting up. Never did that before. So I re-installed the OS, but that didn't help either.

View 2 Repliesget the zip file which will be very helpfull. I made some screenshots in photoshop for help.
1). map jpg: That's the map
2). the map is covered with a black layer
3).the user changes (somehow) the _alpha property (before starting revealing the image) to -let's say- 60% and reveals with the eraser the path of the map up to some point.
4).the user sets the _alpha of the cover back to 100% in order to get the picture shown in the example.
My AS3 application basically does the following (pseudo code from main application class) 3 or 4 times by adding custom objects to stage:
_movieClipClassVariable = new MyCustomSpriteSubclass();
_movieClipClassVariable.addEventListener(MyEvents.READY, function(event:Event):void {
_hideLoading();
mcHolder.addChild(_movieClipClassVariable);});
_movieClipClassVariable.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myClickHandler);
private function coverClickHandler(event:Event):void {
}
What is the right way to allow Garbage Collector to recycle _movieClipClassVariable after it is not necessary? Assign null to it? Remove all listeners? Use weak reference for listeners?
