ActionScript 3.0 :: Capture Only A Portion Of The Stage?
Oct 23, 2010
I have done this a million times in AS but not quite getting it in AS3.. maybe my brain is just fried..i have a rectangle_MC that is moving around the stage.. inside that rectanlge_MC i want to constantly redraw the stage, well only the portion of the stage that is covered by the rectangle..o if my rectangle for instance is currently at x:60 and y:80, and its demensions are 200x200, want it to redraw just the ares of the stage that starts a x:60, y:80 and goes to x:260 and y:280..

Right now my stage dimensions are 980 X 800 px. I need to cut or "crop out" the bottom portion of the footer because its height is too long. So I changed the stage dimensions to 980 X 600 px (and changed the corresponding dimensions in the embed tag in the index.html file to match). Doing this seems to cut out the bottom but at the same time adds space to the top and seems to distort the overall spacing. Is there a simple way to crop out the bottom of the stage (just like cropping out a section of a photo)?

I am trying to grab part of stage area using BitmapData and copyPixels method:
bmd = new BitmapData(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
bmdRect = new BitmapData(320, 240);
rectangle = new Rectangle(360, 20, 320, 240);
bmdRect.copyPixels(bmd, rectangle, new Point());
[Code].....
The result i get is an empty .jpg I m pretty sure that the error is in the Bitmap procedure and not the saving one...

basically i would like to screen capture a part for the stage. but i got no idea how to do it as i am very new to flash programming.i am using the PNGencoder to do the process, but i cant actually screen capture the position i want. this is tje sniplet of the code for the process. It is taken from a tutorial with some changes, but it is still lacking of the position of the stage i want to screen capture.
private function export():void
{
var bmd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(216.2, 468.29);
[code]....
the code are working properly for now except it captures the point from 0 x axis and 0 y axis. I need it to be like 150 on x axis and 150 on y axis.

I have a game that allows people to arrange images however they like, but I need a way for users to take a screenshot/image of their design (stage) so it can be emailed. I've found loads of examples that use server side scripts such as php (JPEGEncoder) but this particular program I�m creating is for internal office use only and don�t have access to a server to upload it.

If I have the following code which adds an event listener to the stage, why does it not respond when the capture parameter is set to true. It works fine when it is set to Target and Bubblig (false). My understanding is that all the phases happen...

I am working on a project that requires the stage (and everything on it) to be captured, converted to a bitmap and then that data to be posted to another domain. I have looked at the .getPixel method but that creates a ridiculously long string and more often than not, will crash the swf in the browser. How I could possibly approach this. Oh, I need to do this in AS2 too.

what I'm trying to do is allow the user to pick a section of the stage, click, and have the region defined be copied and show up on the other side of the stage. It may be better explained to think of it like a camera game. The player has cross hairs, can move the square (which tracks the mouse) around the stage, and click to capture that square's pixel information, store it to a new movieclip and display it on another area of the stage.
I've found many resources online about capturing BitmapData, including capturing from embedded FLV videos, but I haven't seem to be able to find anyone who has created something like this which captures from a moving region. However, I have seen it done before in a game that is no longer online from PBSkids.org.
Here is what I have so far. Right now, when I click the movieclip loads all white pixel data and I'm not sure why.
[flash=]import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.geom.Point;
stop();

The problem is not playing part of an mp3, I know that can be done. But I'd like to cut down on bandwidth by loading a specified two-minute portion of each mp3. These files can be up to 20mb, and since users will play many of these songs (and probably move on after a minute or two of listening), it would be very inefficient to load the whole mp3. Can this be done or is there another method you can suggest? Possibly a server side script that slices and/or lowers the mp3's bitrate?

This should be straightforward, but I'm having problems getting a portion of a string from a dynamic textfield, which I need to manipulate. Say I have a dynamic textfield onstage that successfully gets populated with some data from a query string e.g.
Code:
FlashVars: 352746583part1
So basically I want to get a hold of the part after FlashVars: for further manipulation. I've tried something like this: (assuming that above text is visible in a textfield called t1)
Code:
testvar = t1.text;
testvar.toString();
finalvar = testvar.split(":");

I have a Template that I bought for a client that wanted it. It has background looping music and my customer wants to add videos (FLV), no problem. Now she wants the background music to sop when the FLVs are playing and start when I exit the FLV and go to another portion of the site. I hope I am being clear.
I need the background music to sop playing when the FLV videos are playing. I have Google and found nothing really.

I need to know which part of the text is been modified by the user inside a Flex TextArea. I'm listening to TextArea's Event.CHANGE and my code run on everychange but i don't know what the user have done to the text and it's too long to process it again at every keypress or paste
We are still with Flex 3.5 but i may consider Flex 4 if the solution is easier.

I just saw one of the Sears websites in which you can "copy" a portion of the swf using a selection window. Once they click and drag and release the selection window, another swf pops up with their selection in it. Can someone point my in a direction for this copying functionality?

I am making a Flash CS5 application in which the user draws transparent overlays on a Sprite placed on top of an image. The user needs to be able to erase his input as in MS Paint, Adobe Photoshop, or GIMP. Because the Sprite is on top of an image, there is no safe clear color I can think of to draw over the section that the user has just rubbed his eraser over

I am writing a screen scroller for a game I'm making. There's a BitmapData object which holds the background graphic, yet I do not want to show/render it on screen all at once.
For example, I want to show only a 500x500 section of the data but the entire BitmapData is 1000x1000. I wanted to use the scroll() method to scroll the data but my problem is that I cannot restrict how much of the BitmapData is drawn on the Bitmap. I tried setting the height/width properties of the BitmapData to 500x500 (and draw all the 1000x1000), but any data drawn beyond the boundaries I defined is not really drawn.
Another option I considered is to store a different BitmapData object which holds the entire data, and then use copyPixels() from it to the one used on the Bitmap itself, although then I cannot use scroll() and have to use different methods to achieve scrolling.

I am so stumped. How on earth do you remove a portion of a multidimensional array?
For example:
var myArray:Array =[];
myArray[0][0] = 0;
myArray[0][1] = 1;
//trace(myArray[0]);
//[0,1]
How do I remove the second portion ([1]) of myArray[0][1] so that when I do a trace, it produces just 0?
