ActionScript 2.0 :: Tiling A Background With 100% SWF?
Sep 1, 2005I am using this code to create a tiled background on a site I'm working on.
tileBG = function () {
tile_width = 128;
tile_height = 128;[code]....
It works great, but because I'm publishing my SWF with noScale at 100% width and height, the background doesnt fill the whole swf, only the size of the actual stage in the FLA. Is there any way I can change this so It will fit accordingly?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Convert MC To Bitmap For BG Tiling?
Jan 25, 2009I'm building an XML driven video player that will allow users to customize a wide variety of layout/visual features for the player, and one of the important features is letting them switch between a regular background image, and a tiled background. I've been playing around with various methods for tiling using the Bitmap class, and its been working fine, as long as I load the image from the library. However, when I try to load the image dynamically (i.e. through XML), it doesn't jibe.
Here's the code for the tile:
function tile() {
var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("linkageIDForBitmap");
this.beginBitmapFill(tile);
this.lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
[code]....
Again, if I write a variable which references the xml node, and use that variable in the loadBitmap function, it doesn't work. I'm assuming this is because the dynamically loaded tile doesn't have a linkage ID attached? Not sure how to do that...
My other thought is to simply load the tile into a movieclip (as I do with all the other content), and then convert the movieclip to a bitmap, then proceed as normal with the code above. I've searched the boards for a method to do this, but have come up empty.
Full Browser Flash Non Tiling
Aug 13, 2009I've seen the Full Browser Flash video which has tiling in the background.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Tiling And Scaling Flash

ActionScript 2.0 :: 100% Width And Height Tiling?
Aug 8, 2005I was trying to work into my 100% width and height backgrounds i have been putting into flash (code at bottom).The question I have is, the duplicate background tutorial only works for the defined space of the flash stage, ie: if the stage is 900x600 - the background will duplicate for that, but anything beyond is just the stage color.How can I make the background duplicate across the entire browser window.
Here is the code being used for my 100% w/h backgrounds (not tiled):
Code:
// Control stage size without content resize.
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.bgFull_mc._width = Stage.width;
_root.bgFull_mc._height = Stage.height;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Error #2015: Invalid BitmapData At Flash.display::BitmapData()
Oct 14, 2009I am trying to use the reflect class from "http://pixelfumes.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflection-class-v3-with-source .html" but I keep getting this error:

btw, first I used assigned thumbContainer as the mc argument (outside the loadThumbs() function) and it worked but not exactly what I wanted... because I thought it is supposed to update when the movieclip is animated but it actually didn't... when I use a scroller, only the thumbs that are first loaded to the stage get the reflection..
Actionscript 3 :: Quickly Rotate The Pixels That Make Up BitmapData Without Using BitmapData.draw()?
Dec 29, 2011I've been using BitmapData.copyPixels() to draw graphics onto a canvas (Bitmap).I need to rotate the resulting graphics without the use of draw() because it's vastly slower.How can I rotate the target graphic? I'm assuming that there might be a formula or library that I can use which will first reorganize the pixels that make up a graphic based on an origin (point) and radians.I'm pretty certain that I'm not capable of creating such logic, so if there are any known libraries that do this, that would be awesome.I'd like to achieve something similar to XNA's SpriteBatch.Draw() method, which accepts rotation as its 5th argument.

Mostly articles on building tile-based games with PBE.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Create A Tiling Image That Fills The Stage?
Jul 2, 2010I've attempting to create a tiling image that fills the stage using AS3. Its all well and good until the stage is resized - once this happens things being to look very poor. At first I thought it was a smoothing issue but now I realise that the same image is being drawn over itself again and again. As I want to eventually have this over video, I need the transparency. If I use an opaque image, obviously you cant see the problem.
I've tried adding a condition to remove the child that is being drawn to in several ways but this dosen't seem to work. You can see these commented out in the code below.

Dynamic TXT Flash Blog?
Jul 21, 2009I've maintained a blog on my site, and it's a real pain to post in it because everytime I do it, I get TXT files from people using PCs (I use macs), and when I copy and paste that text into flash, it adds double the lines they used. So I have to edit them to take out all the extra spaces.
If that wasn't bad enough, The titles and content use different fonts and different sizes, so they're two different static textfields. And to set each posting apart from the other, I added a line between them. But for it to look good, this has to be in the exact middle between the end of one post, and the next post's title. But since each post has a different size, it's also a pain to measure that distance everytime I add a post. So I was thinking, one way for me to solve all this is to make a movieclip which does all the calculations by itself, and draws text from an external textfile. Maybe using HTML text I can have two different fonts and sizes in one textfield, instead of two?
Anyway, what I want is to just get the new post from people, paste the new text inside the TXT file, overwrite the one on the server with it and voil, that way I don't even have to open flash when adding new posts.
Anyone have a good way to do this? And then, for extra coolness, maybe if I get this working, I could make a page where the posters could log in and post...this page would save the post to the txt and that would make posting a lot easier because then they don't need me to post!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Possible To Create Flash XML Blog
Apr 28, 2011Is this as simple as using an XML image gallery's setup? The thing is, for a school project we can do whatever we want, but there has to be a blog. Since we want to make our site in Flash, I had this thought to use XML so my other team members (who have no clue on how to work with flash) could just as easily update the XML file and we have our "blog". Now the way I had this in mind (but I'm not that experienced with XML) is I have a movieClip container which would be added at every new XML line. Within this movieClip there would be a textField to fill with our babbling and a sprite/movieClip which will hold an image. That's about it.
