ActionScript 3.0 :: Created A Sprite Gradient Box As Background?
Apr 10, 2009
I have created a sprite gradient box as my background in my flash as3 file (using tweenmax). As i'm trying to make this a full screen swf on the browser window, i set the width and height according to the stage.
My trouble is that when I resize my browser, the gradient box does not resize with it... it only does when i refresh the window with the new width/height.
Is there a way I can put a redraw function in an event handler that will recognize the window resize? If this is hard to understand... can my background become bigger at the same time as the window is being dragged to a new size?

I'm trying to create spinning rays in actionscript to use in my website.Below is the rough idea of what i'm trying to create.Is it possible to create absolutely with 0 images.Following is the actionscript code in which i couldn't figure out how to add gradient, transperant background and little radial gradient to create glow effect.
Code:
function CreateRays():Shape {
var ray:Shape = new Shape();
ray.graphics.beginFill(0xFF9900,.5);
ray.graphics.lineStyle(1,0xFF9900,.5);
[code]....
If you paste above code in 1st frame of your scene with nothing on your scene, it will give you sweet rotating rays!

I would like to be able to make changes to a colour gradient of a sprite from my library, as opposed to one drawn dynamically. So the code I thought would look something like this:
Code:
var radType:String = GradientType.RADIAL;
var radMatrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
radMatrix.createGradientBox(120,120);
var radColours:Array = [0x3174d0, 0x15396f];
var radAlphas:Array = [1, 1];
var radRatios:Array = [0, 255];
var myLibrarySprite:spriteInLibrary = new spriteInLibrary();
myLibrarySprite.graphics.beginGradientFill(radType, radColours, radAlphas, radRatios,radMatrix);
addChild(myLibrarySprite);
I've been using essentially this code (plus a bit for say drawing a square) happily to gradient fill sprites that are dynamically drawn. I don't get any errors from this.
I have tried adding myLibrarySprite.graphics.clear() but that does not make a difference.

I have created a Sprite that contains 3 movieclips that act as masks for another movieclip. 2 of the moviclips have an alpha gradient but I cannot get the alpha to work. I have the three masks because they are separately animated.Here is my code.
var maskContainer = new Sprite();
maskContainer.addChild(WebPageMaskEndT_mc);
maskContainer.addChild(WebPageMaskEndB_mc);[code]....
NOTE: I have also tried setting cacheAsBitmap for the 3 individual masks but no results.

I need to export the gradient settings of a rectangle created with the Flash editor. Our artist creates a rectangle with the gradient in a .fla. Is it possible to retrieve the gradient parameters from the .swf or from a flash plugin I could write?

In a project, I've got 2 background (one light and one dark). My main background is the dark one and when I move my mouse I wanna show in a small circle with an alpha gradient the light one.
But I don't know how can I do that...
I try and I've got white mask with the light background in my circle or I've just got the dark background and no mask.
If someone already do that and can explain it to me ?

I'm working with Flex 3.4 SDK.
I'm trying to programmatically(yep, must be this way) style/skin a VBox so that its top right corner is rounded, and it gets a two colors gradient brackground.
Modifying examples I found around I was able to accomplish both effects(corner and background) but only separately:
VBox with not all rounded corners: [URL]
VBox with gradient background: [URL]
But what I need to do is to apply both at the same time. And all my coding attempts so far have failed silently.

I have a website already done... but I'd like it to be over a full screen gradient background.I found a lot of tutorials and exemple on how to repeat a symbol picture to make a seamless background just like the one Lee Brimelow made on gotoandlearn.com, but I can't find one on how to make that gradient full screen background.

I'd like to fill the .graphics section of a sprite AFTER a series of lines and arcs are drawn. To draw the shape, I need to use a series of moveTo() and lineTo() statements, so the standard beginFill() won't work for me. The final shape will always be closed, but I don't have the lines/arcs in sequential order.

I created a class, extended the sprite class, and now in the constructor I am trying to set the Sprite's width and height properties which are inherited from the DisplayObject. However, after I set this.width and this.height, and print the values, I get 0 for both.
What the heck is going on? When I view the livedocs I see that DisplayObject has width and height listed as public properties. I have been able to instantiate a Sprite directly, and set the width and height after it's been instantiated, so I don't get it.
package {
import flash.display.*;
public class ScrollBar extends Sprite {[code].....

I'm doing a simple rotation on a sprite but there's a weird behavior where the sprite does not rotate around it's top left. I think I'm rotating along the top left of the test class instead of the sprite child. I would like to rotate the rectangle around it's top left corner (kinda like a clock hand). The code is pretty short so I'll let the code + pictures explain my problem:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
[Code]....
I've read a lot of stuff about rotating around a fixed point, I've tried doing it with movieclips instead of sprites, I even copy pasted a tutorial on rotation and nothing works.

Then the numericStepper is drawn as if it is squished to 20% its normal height. If I pre-set mySprite width and height before adding the numericstepper, the trace output is 0,0 after adding it and it is not displayed at all. Is there some way I can make the sprite only adjust to correctly fit the numericStepper OR resize it afterwards without distorting the numericStepper component?

I have only one question but phrased it 3 ways:
1) Is it better to pre=render things say in photoshop or have flash render them?
2) if I have a field of stars that drift along; is it better to create that Star Field in photoshop as a single picture (say a .png) or to create a star in my library and add it to a movie clip and then have that drift along?
Lets say I have a blur effect on my stars and have an equivalent on the photoshop.
3) I have heard (and experienced) adding effects like blur takes a fair amount of CPU and memory so was wondering if I created the effect in photoshop and then imported the 'blurred' object into my flash if I could cut down on system resources?
