Aug 9, 2011I have two sprites that are drawn as rectangles. I want to know if the rectangles are intersecting. I run into trouble when the objects rotate.

Flex :: Actionscript 3 - Find Upper Right Point Of Rotated Rectangle?
May 2, 2010I have a rectangle of any arbitrary width and height. I know X,Y, width, and height. How do I solve the upper right hand coordinates when the rectangle is rotated N degrees? I realized if it were axis aligned I would simply solve for (x,y+width). Unforunatly this doesn't hold true when I apply a transform matrix on the rectangle to rotate it around its center.

Jan 16, 2010The AS3 getBounds function returns a rectangle that is not fitting tightly to a rotated ellipse. Instead it returns an axis-aligned rectangle based on the bounds of a rectangle whose width/height corresponds to the max/min diameter of the ellipse and follows its rotation.
Stack Overflow Q/A about the math of ellipses and bounding boxes
Based on this I took a stab at coding a solution in AS3. So far I have been able to produce a rectangle that fits perfectly along the x-axis, but as I rotate my ellipse it acts very weird along the y-axis. Rather than alternating between 2*r_min and 2*r_max while rotating, it alternates between 2*r_min and 0. My best guess is that I have done something wrong when solving the differentiated t for gradient -> infinity...
Here is an example from my code:
var r_max:uint = 45;
var r_min:uint = 20;
var rot:Number = ellipse.rotation * (Math.PI / 180);
var t_nil:Number = Math.atan( -r_min * Math.tan(rot) / r_max);

ActionScript 2.0 :: Intersecting Text And Image
Feb 2, 2009I am trying to put an text on an image (both have the same color) and the intersection should be white. It works fine with blend mode "invert" when both are black.

Oct 27, 2011So I've been working on a Character class for platformer/ generic side-view style games. The problem is that i might need bits of characters to appear to go through other characters (i.e. char 1 grabs char 2 and runs char 2 through with weapon) the problem with this is that the characters' parts are contained in movieclips to run code on them holding them together and keeping me from having to position them just perfectly every frame in the IDE. it seems I have four choices:
1) Completely reprogram the display list -not practical
2) just hide the area of the movieclip that is intersecting with the other character
3) break apart the characters and merge them into an "interaction manager" movieclip
4) just give up.
I don't have the skills for option 1. Option 3 is ok i guess, but i'd rather try option 2 first. My biggest problem is that i have no idea how i would go about selecting just the intersecting part of the movieclip without reprogramming some part of the display list. If anyone can understand this, please give me something to point me in a direction.
Flash :: Draw Two Intersecting Circle Holes In Graphics?
Oct 25, 2011I need draw rectangle with two circle holes inside. The problem is in circles interception. I want them to join together and cut from background, but they seems to be XORed:
At first I tried drawRect and DrawCircle:
graphics.beginFill(0, 0.5);
graphics.drawRect(0, 0, width, height);
graphics.drawCircle(width/2, height/2, 50);

here getCirclePath returns object with points to draw polygon which looks like circle. Also I tried different combinations of GraphicsPathWinding constants, but no luck.

Actionscript 3 - What Is The Box Model For Flash Rectangles
Jun 29, 2011In CSS, we have a box model to define how border, margin, padding, and fill contribute to the total width and height of a rectangle. I'm porting some of my HTML/CSS design into Flash and can't quite figure out what Flash's box model is. In Flash, I've created a rectangle with gradient fill and a non-scaling 1 pixel stroke. I'm trying to get pixel-perfect positioning and sizing, but the experience has been unpredictable. I'm not really seeing a pattern to the following questions. The answer really changes depending on the exact circumstances.
When you set x and y both to be 0, where does the border lay? Is it off the screen? Is it being cut in half by the origin? Or is it completely visible?When you set width to 100, is the fill 98 wide or 100 wide?What happens to the 1px thick border when the rectangle is not positioned at whole number coordinates?
Example:
var sh:Shape = new Shape();
sh.graphics.lineStyle(1.0, 0x00FF00, 1.0, false, LineScaleMode.NONE);
sh.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000, 1.0);
sh.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
[code]....
I tried to create a 100x100 square at x:10, y:10. When I measured the total width and height in Photoshop, it came out to be 101x101.One would either expect the final dimensions to be 100x100 (border on inside) or 102x102 (border on outside).

Jan 17, 2010I created a small rectangle and made it into a symbol movie clip. then I went inside of it and added a small 100x100 image on the left side along with a description of the image on the right side filling up the rest of the space.
I now want to somehow put it in a container that will automatically add a vertical scrollbar on the right side and somehow add more rectangles on top of each other. perhaps the scroll bar wont be initially on the screen until the container fills to have more than 5 rectangles in it or so.
Is there a component I can extend somehow to add this kind of functionality or does one already exist that I can use?

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Rectangle With Arbitrary Number Of Rectangles?
Mar 27, 2012I'm trying to figure out how to tile a rectangle (the stage) with an arbitrary number of rectangles. Simple tiling where all the tiles are the same size and simply stacked in a grid.I'm doing this with a resizable layout and a number of tiles that is arbitrary and will change over time.
Given a more or less 4:3 or 16:9 monitor I would like a solution that tends toward minimizing the perimeter of the tile and being similar in aspect ratio to the screen. I realize that if I have a prime number of tiles that I won't be able to make a nice grid, but other than that it seems there should be some way to do this.Lets say I have 231 tiles I need to arrange. The factors are 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77 and 231.If the screen is really, really wide 1 x 231. Wide but not not as crazy wide as before 3 x 77. And most likely 11 x 21 is what I would need.So is there an easy way to do this on the fly? Is there a pre-calculated way to make it easy?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Series Of Solid Rectangles?
Jul 13, 2009Fairly new to ActionScript 3. I am creating a series of solid rectangles which will be acting as butttons for my site, a new rectangle is created by looping through an XML List, 1 rectangle for each title in my List. They will be displayed 1 above another down the left hand side of my screen.
What I want to do, if possible, is create a vanishing point on the right hand side of my screen which the rectangles will use to alter their perspectives.Obviously the rectangles with a far different Y position to the vanishing points, will display with a greater perspective.

May 11, 2004I have a pretty simple script that allows you to draw multiple rectangles using the drawing API in MX. I need to create multiple MC containers, so that I can later do other functions to these areas. Now, why the rectangles are drawing in the way they are. If you copy this script into a blank file and run it, you'll see what I mean. Why is it duplicating/replicating/echoing as you draw? If you debug and list Objects, it is creating the MCs properly, so where are these other lines coming from?

drawLevel = 0;
drawOK = "yes";
this.onMouseDown = function() {

To see this in action, click here. alternate link. Notice that with the default settings, the number of items actually in the sphere are less by 13. I believe is the error introduced by my approximation in the first step.
I am not able to figure out a method for determining what the exact radius of such a sphere should be. I'm hoping to learn either a better method, the correct method, or that what I am trying to do is hard or very hard (in which case I will be happy with what I have).
