ActionScript 3.0 :: Drawing Line Between Two Movieclips?

Feb 28, 2011

I am having some trouble drawing a line between two movieclips. One of the movieclips is moved with the arrow keys. The line is created between them, but every time the movieclip moved another line is created. I would like only one line to connect the two movieclips. I am trying to create some sort of "AI." When the line hits a wall, then there isn't a clear line of sight. Here is the code:

ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveguard);
function moveguard(event)

Flash - When Drawing A Freehand Line With The Cursor, How To Make It A Dashed Line

Nov 23, 2011

I am using Flex 4 and AS3 and I am trying to make it so that the user can draw a freehand line with the cursor - I have this part done.However, I also need the line to be a dashed line instead of one solid line like it is now. below is my code I am using. I have found some examples on how to do this, but they are all for straight lines, not for a freehand line.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Line Drawing Effect?

Apr 16, 2009

What I'd like is the ability to draw a line with the drawing tools in Flash, and have that line appear onscreen as if it were being drawn. I don't think there's a way to do that with the animation tools (I'd like to give it a go, but I have no idea, once I've drawn a line and converted it into a symbol, how I could access the anchor points and whatnot of said line to then do some funky stuff with curveTo, or whatever better solution is out there...

Simulate Drawing A Line Or Growth

Nov 9, 2009

With several flashes I'm trying to create, I find that I need to know how to depict a line being drawn or a plant/vine growing (same concept right). Obviously frame-by-frame animation can be used, but that's quite tedious. There must be some other, more productive way to pull it off. Example of the vine: [URL] I've tried shape tweens with shape hints but it didn't render very well at all.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Drawing A Long Line?

Mar 26, 2009

I'm having troubles with the width of a line using the lineTo and lineStyle function, I can put setting the thickness and noScale parameters, and it works fine for no longer lines than 32000 pixels, but when I try longer line, the thickness changes to a bigger width. if you want to try what I'm saying you can prove this by changing the num variable:to 33000 for example:

num = 32000
this.createEmptyMovieClip ("Envolvente", 100);
this.Envolvente.lineStyle(0,0x00CC00,100, false, "none",
"round", "miter", 0.8);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Line Drawing Is Too Slow

Sep 4, 2011

i'm developing a game for mobile devices where I need to draw many objects and some lines(1~3 just occasionally).
 
my problem in short is: Line drawing is too slow for iPhone4

objects are drawn with bitmap, so it's pretty fast with GPU support. drawing lines are slow.

a end point of a line follows mouse cursor, so it changes every frame.

here's how i did it

initialization step:
var img:Shape = new Shape();
addChild( img );

[Code]....

that gives me 47~48 FPS on my iPhone. +2 FPS but still way too slow for a simple line. 
 
without the line, i can maintain my whole game around 30 FPS. with the line, it goes below 20.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Animating A Line Drawing?

myLine.lineStyle(2, 0x000000, 100);

ActionScript 2.0 :: Drawing A Line 'progressively' Using The API

Apr 18, 2007

Drawing a simple line is easy - here's some sample code here from Kirupa:

[Code]....

My First Question is - how can you get it to show the drawing of the line - almost like an animation? This example instantly shows the line - I want the appearance that you're watching the line being drawn. Do you animate the lineTo variable and just keep refreshing? My Second Question is - can you do the same with a Bezier curve? In the end, I'm trying to draw random bezier lines from the left to the right in varying thicknesses and shapes (being able to see them being drawn from left to right).

JavaScript :: Best Method Of Drawing Bezier Line?

Apr 12, 2012

I have a conundrum with a design. Imagine the new Facebook timeline with lots of chronological posts attached to it. However instead of a straight line I need to make a randomized curved line with the content placed against it like so:
The complexity comes in because as the user scrolls more posts are loaded (facebook/google images style) so the line could almost be endless.

As far as I can tell my options are:
SVG - poor support in old browsers
Flash layer - embed will be huge and cause performance issues
Canvas - again the canvas will be huge and might cause performance issues

Question: Are there any cross browser gfx libraries which could do this, preferably with support for IE7/8? Or is there a smarter way to do this which I might be overlooking?

I'm trying to draw two circles at random positions, and draw a line between those two circles - but flash doesn't seem to register the x|y coordinates of the circle in my code.How would I do this. Better yet, how would I do this so that if I were to drag one of the circles, the line would maintain the connection between those points? Here's my code:

var sh = stage.stageHeight;
var cr = 6; //circle radius

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cool Animated Line Drawing?

Jan 31, 2008

so maybe this animation is not that cool. But line 'draw-on's like this are quite common and I cannot find an easy way to do this in flash. I have tried masks, but (as far as I can tell) the line path is too complex for a mask. I have tried animating it using shape hints, but flash just gets hopeless confused as to how I want the line to animate on. I could export this as an swf out of AfterEffects, but the file size seems way too big for what the animation is. I have begun to realize that maybe this type of animation is often achieved using actionscript.
