I want to create a border around my mask. When I try to add a lineStyle to my code I get an error:1061: Call to a possibly undefined method lineStyle through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite What am I doing wrong?
ActionScript Code:
//create a mask to cover the room container
var roomMask:Sprite = new Sprite;
[code].....
Is there any way to display a border around the shape that is being used as a mask over an image? I've created a custom shape using points and set it as the mask over an image... But when i set it as the mask the lines between the points disappear.

View 2 RepliesI have this code for creating a border around images. (partly from the huge thread on resizeBorder here at Kirupa). The image is loading into a containerMC and that I can align top left, but this code I dont know how to align? Anyone?

I'm trying to make a little program. It works right now by drawing the top shape to the dark gray area, where it then copies itself and changes color. The new shape can be re-dragged as well. What I want to do now is add a dynamic border when I click on the new object, I want the box to adjust to an appropriate size. And on mouse release I want the selection border to disappear on the new shape. I want the selection border to be dashed much like you find in many of Adobe's programs, if at all possible.

im trying to create a flash effect using a mask layer.i want to have a text box which is invisible, and throu the timeline small peices of a mask layer will move over the text box, revealing the text. My problem is this, if i create a mask layer with more than 1 object, when i try to move the objects (for example in different directions so the text will reveal from both sides) then i get a weird movement from the objects (like the sum of both movements i wanted) so i was think maybe a layer can contain only one moving object.So i just cant figure how can i get the effect i want.

View 0 RepliesI am having trouble creating duplicates of a movieclip that stay behind a mask. They keep overriding the layering/masking and end up on top of the mask. The script is below, where "sman" is the mask and "sf1" is the movieclip that's being duplicated.

I'm learning AS3 and I'm doing pretty well at the moment but I've got stuck at a point I can't seem to get past or work out a way to do it. After a few hours of googling I've decided to pick the brains of KIRUPA forumBasically I dynamically create a dozen movieclips. Now I have drag and drop events on these clips and I want to be able to drag a movieclip, drop it onto a trashbin movieclip that i've named 'trash' which would then removeChild the movieclip i've just dropped it ontop of.How would I go about doing this?

Then when I add something else as a child in this class, the mask is still applied to the gallery and it crops it accordingly, however the background in it turns white and hides whatever was behind it. For instance, there is space between the rectangles in the gallery movieclip and then a backdrop from the main class's movieclip shows behind it. When I called "addChild", the space between the rectangles becomes white. The background of gallery renders totally white.
I am attempting to use a "magnifying glass" effect to view a larger layer (e.g., 600x300 ) through a smaller layer (e.g., 200x75 ) by use of a mask layer. I have 4 layers to my code:

I have a startDrag function set up on a loader and mask that when the mouse is down on the loader it drags, when not it doesn't. There is also 2 buttons that control whether mask1 or mask2 is used. What i would like however is when the mouse is down - the area of the loader outside of the mask is visible but only by about 10/20% alpha, that way the user can see where all the image is while dragging. Is this possible? Full code can be seen below and i have attached the zip with the .fla file:

what i am doing is to make something along the lines of the "scriptable mask" tutorial Inigo was kind enough to put up.My idea is to have a large mask behind the whole of my flash site, this masks a colour image with a black & white one (nothing tricky). The image I am using is actually 5 separate images combined, and each is a pic of certain parts of the site.I also have a very basic set of buttons along the bottom... each corresponding to each section.
All I want is to set it up so that when I mouse over the buttons, the _x of the mask moves to correspond with the correct image... really very basic... or so I thought .If anything it should be easier to do than what is in Inigo's tut (where he uses the _x of the mouse to move the mask)... i just cant seem to get it to work with a nice easing effect (its easy to get the mask to simply snap to each coordinate, but I need it to smoothly move).
maybe point me towards a better way to mask. png file is way too big. I have been using the mask layer option to create my own mask around a jpg image by drawing around it on the mask layer. There has to be a fetter and faster way to do this. Is it possible to maybe have a specific color range have an alpha value of 0. Similar to green screening whereas If I put the item I want to clip on a green background flash will auto take out the green for me. and by auto I mean action script maybe. I think this can be done but im not finding it.
how are these guys clipping these images [URL] they have the movie clips set up where the black background on the 3 layers of shoes is getting masked out. When I go into the shoe movie clips I see there is a black background but it just disappears when I go back to main timeline.
ive gotten one movie clip to mask another in the actions frame but i cant seem to be able to mask the flames which are a shape with a movieclip in this as file. im not getting any errors but the mask isnt covering anything look near the bottom at s.mask=mask_mc; there are about 20 "s" shapes spawning per second if that has anything to do with it
Code:
//this package turns an mc into a flaming button that calls a javascript function
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code].....
I was wondering if its possible to mask multiple MC or Sprites under one mask, when using AS3.abc.mask = a;cba.mask = a;something like that
