ActionScript 3.0 :: Create Generative Art On A Stage?
Oct 4, 2008
My assignment is to create generative art on a stage, such that clicking the mouse creates little .png planets i have designed, at random angles and at random locations around the stage. I'd also like some stars to flash on and off, also at random. Does anyone know the best basic starting point for this project? It must be entirely generated by code (onclick event, with another event refreshing and regenrating it).

I'm using Flash CS3 and wish to create a movie where the stage is a certain size but the actual content of the movie extends further than the stage. The user will be able to drag the stage from left to right to show hidden parts of the movie. Similar to the idea of a horizontal scrolling image gallery but without the scrollbar (see attached for example image).

I have a class that I want to be able to create a movieclip from and then add it to the stage when it's instantiated. The constructor takes two arguments but nothing special.I had one solution that added the movie clip, but then I couldn't modify the _x and _y values of it directly from the .fla. What would be the best way to do this? Should my class extend MovieClip or no?the formatting is something like:
Code:
class Foo extends MovieClip{
private var _mc:MovieClip;

ActionScript Code:
var MapBtnArray:Array = [];
var MapBtnSprite:Sprite;
var i:int;
[Code].....
I'm using to code above to create several sprite on the stage, but when I click on the sprite, the index of each trace work just fine (output of J is according to the target i click); however MapBtnArray[j].x keep equals to "0"
I want the coordinate of the sprite on stage, how come what i get is "0" instead?

I started 2 days ago programming in as3, so I'm building a website and I want to create a pattern for my background.The pattern is a bitmap image 300px X 300px and I want to repeat it along the x axis and y axis of my document.My stage is 1280 x 800)And I want also to have the pattern to fill all the screen in case of the user's screen become larger than the resolution of the stage that I'm building the website on.

I've begun development on a isometric game, and have what I thought to be the hard part out of the way - the map generation from external files, screen-to-isometric conversions, etc. However I'm getting stumped on the "easy" stuff.Basically what I'm trying to do is this. Create a function that will add an object to the map (stage), then add an eventlistener so when it's clicked on, it gets added to the player's inventory. Lets take this sample code:
Code:
public function addObjectToWorld(o:IsoObject):void {
// ...code to add it to the world

I'm starting to learn AS3, and a question comes to mind. Let's say I'm in the authoring environment and I draw a rectangle on the Stage, set some properties - fill color, etc. - and then convert to button symbol.
Question 1 - Is Flash creating AS code that records these actions (create an instance, set properties, etc.)?
Question 2 - If Flash is creating AS code, is there any way we can see that code?

I'd like to create a chain of objects (either movie clips or sprites) that move left to right across the stage continuously. I know I can create two movie clips that contain a series of several 'chain links' and are each a little wider than the stage width. Then I can move both clips across the stage and when the first movie clip is completely off stage reset its x position back to 0. Likewise, when the second clip is completely off the stage on the right, reset it's position off the stage to the left.
This works and gives me the basic effect that I want by creating this uninterrupted moving chain, but it doesn't seem like its the most efficient way to achieve this. What I thought would be more efficient would be to create each link in the chain separately from an individual mc in my library by programmatically adding new instances to the stage.So, I created a single chain link mc and set its export linkage to 'Link' and left the base class to flash.display.MovieClip. Next, I placed the following snippet of the code on the first frame of my movie:
Code:
var xPos:int = 0;
var yPos:int = 100;

I'm trying to create three circles on the stage, one red one green, one blue. When Red overlaps blue, I want the overlapped area to be magenta. When blue overlaps green, the overlapped area should by Cyan. When red&green, it should be yellow, and when all 3 mix it should be white. How do I create the color effect. Right now I have the overlap constraints working and a simple TRACE outputting the color. I need to know how to create the color effect when they mix.

I want to dynamically create multiple buttons on the stage. The number of buttons I want to load will eventually be retrieved from an XML file.
I've made some progress but I'm a little stuck. I have no problems with the XML at all. I've created a button with rollovers and given it a linkage class name and it can be added as a child to the stage.
The problem lies with creating multiple different buttons, each with unique button listeners.

I used the tellTarget method to create advanced rollovers on the main stage. They work great.
I created another advanced rollover button, but this one is inside of a movie clip called "project1_movie". Project1_movie only comes up when a button is clicked, using 'attachMovie' (if that makes sense). The advanced rollover inside of the movie clip "project1_movie" will not work. I get the error message:
Target not found: Target="/rollover1" Base="_level0.project1_movie"
Target not found: Target="/rollover1" Base="_level0.project1_movie"
I did give the rollover movie clip the instance name "rollover1".

I have been looking around for a long time to find a way to create a dynamic text field added to stage using as3 that is arched.I have seen this done in other sites but have had a hard time figuring out. Does anyone know of a component other than Text2Curve that is available? Has anyone already written something that arches a textfield that they would share?Arched text in flash seems to be impossible.

I need to create an object in code which can then be imported to the stage. Specifically it's a circle with an ellipse cut out of it. The size and position of the ellipse masked out need to be parameterized by sliders, and the size of the circle as a whole is also a parameter which might be dragged out on the stage.
Does anyone have an example of how to programatically create an object in action script which can be imported to the library which can take parameters (or rather expose some methods) which can be wired to other things in the project like a knob or slider?

I don't really know that much about Commands in Flash, but I was thinking this could be a possible Command to create.See, I have this puppet made up of dozens of separate pieces, all on their own layers.It's very tedious to click on 10 different symbols in order to move the character's arm, for example.I was wondering if there was a way to create a JSFL command to select each of the 10 symbols on the stage.
I tried clicking each one, and saving the "Change Selection" actions from the History Panel as a Command, but that is location-based.As soon as I move those symbols to a new location, the command I saved no longer selects them.And I can't select the objects by layer or frame, because it doesn't seem to want to save those either.

I would like to create some text on the stage that does not respond to mouse activity. I've found that after adding a piece of text to a class I am using to draw, it covers up some of the mousing area of my class and disables the user from being able to roll over the other graphical elements...
Is there something like:
var t:TextField = new TextField();
t.text = "hello";
t.active = false; //
i know that this is wrong, but I haven't found an equivalent method

I thought would be coded like this:
var sp:Sprite = new Sprite();
sp.graphics.beginFill(0xFF88CC);
sp.graphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 50);
[Code]....
however, I realize even tho im looping that addChild method, its still adding sp, so do I add a new naming convention in the loop, or should I be adding these instances to another display object.... this seems like such a simple thing to do yet I cant figure it out, I also want to randomize the x and y, but this first seems to be the issue I need to address.

I'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.
