Dec 14, 2011I am using a third party flash as3 code to load graphics using sprite. There is a class (load) that takes care of the loading of the graphics.In a new class(getname), I want to be able to1. Load the graphics (done)2. On mouseover change the color of graphics(done)3. Display name of rolled over graphic (not working). I have tried the following in
getname:var feature : load;feature.name;
I get a null object error. Now I have used the mousevent routine(e.target.name) and can display the instance #(instance149). But what I really want is the name of the graphics that the load function loads (graphics and the dbf with all the attributes including the name).

ActionScript 3 :: Direct Access To Sprite Graphics
Jul 27, 2010I"m new to AS3 and I would like to know how can I get to graphics of a Sprite so I could draw it directly from it. I mean I don"t want to use Sprite class as my concrete objects I just want Sprite to hold graphics so if my own object needs to be drawn it asks for graphics to SpriteManager which returns Sprite with required graphics and draws it exactly where I want to not where Sprite's coordinates points to.
View 1 RepliesFlash - How To Erase Part Of Sprite Graphics
May 6, 2009If I have a sprite, with which I have drawn some stuff, how do I erase part of what I have drawn? Preferably I could use drawRect with some "alpha=0" paint. However, I don't believe beginFill lets you set an rgba color (like you can in bitmapdata). Setting alpha = 0 in beginFill doesn't really do anything -- it just draws nothing. In my particular use case, masking isn't an option. Also, calling clear() isn't a good solution since it clears away everything.

IDE :: SWF Optimization - Heavy Graphics - Convert A MovieClip To Sprite
Jun 19, 2009I'm coding games that come with the graphics done. Unfortunately the designer has some bad practices, such as not using Sprite symbols - never. And the files have dozens (even hundreds) of symbols in the library, very few of them with any animation. I would like to re-brand such symbols as Sprite to save some CPU (and maybe even kB), but my graphics-related skills are very low. Where should I start? Check and convert the symbols at authoring time or it's possible to do this at runtime? Can I effectively convert a MovieClip to Sprite (I'm guessing casting to sprite won't help much) or another light image type?
View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Printing Sprites With Scrollrects Using The Bitmap Printing Option Fixes And Prints Most Of The Stuff In The Sprite
Jun 19, 2007I have a sprite that has a scrollbar that uses the scrollrect feature. The sprite has several bitmaps and textfields. When I print the outer sprite (The one with the scrollrect) all of the textfields outside the scrollrect are cut after the first line. In case anyone else is having problems with printing sprites with scrollrects using the bitmap printing option fixes and prints most of the stuff in the sprite. Excluding all textfields outside of the scrollrect. This however can be fixed partially by embedding your fonts.
So now the only problem left is printing multiline textfields that are outside the scrollrect. P.S. Imho the scrollrect should have nothing to do with the printed area of the sprite because the printJob.addPage has a printarea parameter.

View 3 RepliesActionscript 3 :: How Does Graphics Class Work Without Needing To Extend Sprite / Shape
Nov 21, 2010So I'm playing with a project where I want my class to be able to use the functionality of the Graphics class without needing to extend Sprite/Shape. My goal aside, I guess I'm confused as to how it works at all? It's methods don't seem to return anything, and since it's added as a child property of the Sprite/Shape classes , I can't seem to figure out what it's actually doing? It's also one of those classes that can't be instantiated.
At this point, I'm just plain curious. EDIT: I should provide more clear distinction of what I'm looking for as answer. I have read the documentation, but the documentation doesn't account for what AS3 is actually doing. I'm looking for educated guesses about the programatic relationship between Graphics and the the classes that use it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Sprite Button With Graphics And Can't Make It Work?
Aug 22, 2011* I have a flash project called contact
* The document class is ContactClass
I am trying to make a sprite button with graphics and can't make it work. I have successfully added text fields so I know the path is correct. I suspected my code was correct and confirmed it should be, after reading several tutorials showing the process for creating sprite buttons with graphics. Anyway, I imported nearly every class on Earth, but certainly everything which needs to be. Stage is gray and 800x600.The graphics code by itself with appear, but not when linked to the sprite. Also, the sprite won't appear no matter what. Another interesting piece of the puzzle: nothing will trace, not even objects such as textfields which actually appear and function on the stage when I text the code.
public class ContactClass extends Sprite {
public function ContactClass() {
var home_btn:Sprite = new Sprite();[code]....
ActionScript 2.0 :: Attach Graphics Instead Of MC Cause A Graphics File Size Is Relatively Small Than That Of A Graphic?
Apr 9, 2005I was wondering about MC and hey can help to lag a game out. I set up an advanced class system so i don't have to use MC to simulate walls, all i use isthe x,y,width and height. Well anyway since i don't need MC anymore I was wondering if there is a way to attach Graphics instead of MC cause a Graphics file size is relatively small than that of a graphic, I think. If anyone could tell me thats true and show me a way to attach graphics that would be nice. I haven't tried it yet but maybe if I exported the graphic from the library imihgt be able to call its name, but it doesn't have an instance name so im stuck.

Actionscript 3 :: Class Extending Sprite - Set The Sprite's Width And Height Properties?
Mar 5, 2010I 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.

Flash :: Rotating Sprite Moves The Sprite From It's Original Location
Jul 6, 2011I'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;

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.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Divinding Vector Graphics Into Vector Graphics
Jul 28, 2009I have a large vector drawing (imagine 5000x5000) that i want to break up into separate pieces. I know that I can convert this vector drawing into a bitmap and then use the copyPixels method to create many separate bitmaps of the different regions of the original vector drawing, but is there any way to subdivide it into movieclips that just contain vector graphics instead of a bitmap?The reason im dividing a big chunk of vector graphics into smaller pieces is for performance reasons, so flash would only render a small part of this big chunk at a time (only certain regions/voxels/subdivisions are rendered at a time). But bitmaps apparently take up a lot of memory and the system im using would take much less memory if these subdivisions could be preserved in their original vector graphics form.
I imagine I could use masks somehow to achieve this effect (for each subdivision, duplicate the huge image and mask only the region that the subdivision represents), but I dont know the performance costs of masking or if this will create other problems.So is there anyway to split up a movieclip of vector graphics into smaller movieclips of vector graphics the same way copyPixels can with bitmaps?
