I am trying to create a flash movie (AS3) that would allow the user to draw using his mouse but straight lines only. The user would click to set the start point of the line then as he moves the mouse around the line would move with the mouse until the user clicks again to set the end point. When the user clicks again a new line is created without deleting the previous one.
View 3 RepliesI have a program to draw straight lines in a coordinate plane.i create a movie clip ans input ywo pints of the first line and the line is drawn.But when i input the second data of the second line, the new line is drawn but the first line disappears.
View 2 RepliesI've had a look at the Graphics class in AS3 and come up with a dynamic mouse trail. It works, but it's pretty rough and ready. I wonder if anyone could give it a once-over and see if there is a more elegant and efficient way to accomplish this?[code]is it possible to draw the trail with curves rather than straight lines, so that the curves mimic the path the trail would take to smooth out the jagged lines drawn when the cursor is moving quickly?
View 2 RepliesI'm new to Flex, I've tried to do this using a CartesianDataCanvas inside backgroundElements in mxml, then using ActionScript to draw lines on the data canvas using moveTo(x1,y1) and lineTo(x2,y2), which draws a line between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).
The problem with the above method is the tick mark length is a function of the chart area (which depends on the browser window size).
What I need is a method that:
(1) starts at a data coordinate (e.g. moveTo(x1,y1) works fine for this)
(2) draws a line to a screen coordinate (e.g. lineTo(x_screen, y_screen) where x_screen and y_screen are screen coordinates).
Is there anything that can accomplish this in Flex/AS3?
Alternatively, could I use screen coordinates for both steps above? If so, how to convert between screen and data coordinates? For example, is the upper right corner of the screen always a fixed data coordinate that I could reference is creating such a conversion?
Alternatively, could I save a five-pixel line in Illustrator and simply paste that image in the chart somehow? If so, how to paste it exactly at a data coordinate?

I am very new to actionscript 3.0 & currently i have a project to do that required actionscript.
ActionScript Code:
package{ //package
import flash.display.Sprite;// for sprite, to prevent 1046 error code
import flash.events.MouseEvent; //for mouseEvent, to prevent 1046 error code
import flash.display.Shape; //for shape, to prevent 1046 error code
public class gridDrawLineTesting extends Sprite //for mouseX mouseY

This is the code that I have found from various web and paste it into one. I want to draw straight line & snap to that point at the same time. My problem is when I click at 2nd point, there is a 'extra' line at (0,0) joining towards my 2nd corrdinate point. I want to get rid of that 'extra' line.
I am trying to move a playing card across the screen from the deck to the players hand. The deck is in a stationary position and each player has 2 card places in front of them which are also stationary. The deck is a movie clip called "deck" and the player cards are named "p1c1" and "p1c2"....(player # card #). The animation I am trying to accomplish is to duplicate the "deck" movie clip and move it to the players card. Once it reaches the players card, the stationary card will load the card image and the duplicated movie clip will be removed to make it appear as a smooth transition.

View 1 RepliesI am drawing a set of connected lines in a MC that is created using createEmptyMovieClip. The lines start at (0,0) within the MC and move into the negative x values when the lines move left. The problem I am having is when repositioning the MC. When I tell the MC to move to _x=0 and _y=0, it doesn't move to the stage's (0,0), it still hangs off the left side of the stage. The following image shows the MC positioned to (0,0) (note: the green is the stage):shouldn't the MC containing the drawn lines use its left-most point when being repositioned so that it doesn't hang off the left side of the stage?

Just opened flash for the first time to find that the pen tool will only draw straight lines.It can still plot points and the lines will join up but curves are impossible.Is there some setting that disable drawing curves? I haven't found anything in the annoyingly-online files.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to draw lines on a canvas object. When the width of the Canvas is less that the width of the line, it draws outside the Canvas over other elements. I read about this problem and I try to resolve using a inner Canvas with a longer height so a scrollbar appears.But I also read that this problem can be correct using a mask but I do not know what is the better way. Which do you recommend?
<mx:Canvas id="panelContentECG" width="100%" height="400" backgroundAlpha="0.5" styleName="miCanvas" borderStyle="solid" cornerRadius="20" borderColor="0xFCFE00" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">

I would like to have a possibility, where a user could draw simple lines, but with exact length (5000mm, 3150mm, 3950mm etc).where a user could just click and see the lines. Together these lines would make a floor plan for a house. These lines don't have to have thickness, because it will be just a sketch where walls are located. After user has drawn the sketch i would need the program to generate a text file with coordinates of the lines.

I cannot get the lines to draw onto the top of the MovieClip box_mc.At this pojnt, my solution is to change the alpha of box_mc to 0. Now I can see my drawings which are under the box_mc but keep within the boundries of the MovieClip.Maybe my thinking is too concrete, but I was trying to get the drawing lines to stay on top of the MovieClip box_mc like it was a small drawing board.I have tried place a reference to the stage in various places and use addChildAt() in order to see f I can change the MovieClip's place in the hierarchy but so far nothing has worked.

I have three functions that are drawing lines[code]...
I want the functions to work only when the mouse is in a special place on the scene, not drawing lines outside that place.
I have 4 coordinates from which i created a rectangle(using lines). I also created buttons dynamically. It works great for straight line. But when the coordinates generate diagonal lines im having a problem in making it go below the lines or fitting it inside the figure. See my pic for better understanding. I have also figured out how to rotate the button.[code]...
View 1 Repliesmy requirement is that i want to dynamically draw lines on stage using actionscript only;
the end of each line should be the starting point of the next line. all lines will be of random different lengths, heading in random different directions...
but all line should stay in the bounds of the stage i.e. if the stage is 1024 X 768, lines should not go way out of these dimensions...
I am looking to create a drawing component on a site. that should be straight forward.the issue lies with the fact that I would want to detect any collisions say (4) and then attach MC's to the collision points.in a nut shell.can I get a trace of the drawn path on the stage?????from there I guess I can detect any positional similarities?
