is there a type of variable that understands that 360 is less than 0
[Code]...
this works as long as i dont cross the 360/0 threshold (it may be -180/180 since i removed the +180)
What is an alpha threshold?

photoNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * (photos.length));
loader.load(new URLRequest(photos[photoNumber].path));

I'm trying to use threshold to change the colours in a bitmap image according to a lookup table. I've tried the following line of code to convert each colour to another, but without any luck:[code]
View 0 RepliesI am stuck with a requirement to display a horizontal line on a ColumnChart to indicate a threshold level. I have the data to the Chart as an ArrayCollection.
Is it possible to get the location of a value that is shown on the y axis? I think I will be able to place a line or 1px high canvas on top of the Chart to achieve this. Or better, is there any built in functionality that i may have overlooked or is there some open library that can achieve something like this?

Code:
bmd.threshold(bmd, bmd.rect, new Point(), "==", originalColour, newColour);
I have not had much luck so far, I've only managed to generate a black and white image, or nothing at all.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to do some augmented reality projects with flartoolkit . I can now put simple 3d objects on my marker and it works fine , but I wanna give my project some events that the user can interact with. I'm trying to trace the rotation of the marker. there's a container:DisplayObject3D which my application uses to add the 3d objects , I traced this :"trace(container.rotationZ)" but it's just returning 0 . I studied another AR application's source code and it was using the rotation of it's container object without problem .and I think I should mention that I'm using the exercise file of seb lee delisle papervision3d course from [URL]. anyone has any experience with flartoolkit? the main functions of my my code is as below:

Is it possible to have the child movieclip rotate separate of the rotation properties assigned to the parent? so ultimately giving the child element it's own axis?I've customized Lee Brimelows (gotoandlearn.com) 3D carousel to spin on the x axis to make it a vertical carousel. I've also rotated that by 45 degrees on the y axis to see all the items, and wrote a snippet of code to hide the left portion of the carousel. The entire carousel is contained within the 'container' movieclip, and inside of that are my carousel items (as seen below), with the larger item being the item in focus.
On rollover of the item in focus, I want to rotate it so it faces the viewer (as seen below),basically removing the 45 degree rotation applied to the container.The problem i'm running into is when you rotate the container (changing the rotationX of the container), the axis basically rotates with it, so when i rollover the next item 'in focus', the following happens..(in the example where it appears how it want it to, the carousel is at a rotationX of 0, so it works fine)
Program A has a cannon that aims to line up with where-ever the mouse is pointing, in 360 degrees, and fires when the mouse is is clicked. Program B has an eye instead of a cannon that should in theory do similar functions when the capslock key is toggled, but instead only has a 90 degree range of motion from the Right of the eye toward the bottom (quadrant 4 only). Where did the ther 270 degrees of rotation disappear to?
[Code]...
i.m trying to create a 3d rotation much like the widely used carousel only the rotation i desire consist of four upright(90 degrees) movieclips resting on a slanted, 30 degree plane which rotate onEnterFrame or following a tween on a oval like path - then pause for a given number of seconds at the four movieclips positions equal in distance on the plane
function around() {
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);

Why isn't there the Z, rotation X and rotation Y fields in my motion editor panel?
View 1 RepliesI'm using a very wide object in Flash CS3, and I didn't have a problem with the pasteboard automatically expanding to contain it in Flash 8 Pro, but apparently CS3 has limits as to how far it'll let the pasteboard expand, -2880 px to 3620 px or thereabouts. This means I have to move my object off of x:0 y:0 to work with it. This won't kill me, but it does seem to be a step down from Flash 8. Anyone have any news on why this change was made, and if there's any way to correct it?
View 4 RepliesI am doing an animation with a movie clip that needs to follow the mouse on the Y axis only smoothly and needs to stay inside a fixed dimension. (e.g. the mc could moves 200px left or 200px right maximum) And I want it to stop smoothly too when it reach the limits.
View 1 Replies1)i dont know how to make limits! ... and what i mean by that ... for example ... how to make a car unable to move on the buildings ?or how to make the a car dont fall out of the screen ?
2) i also need something ? .. what is the function that could make the screen Zoom In , or Zoom out ??
3) also i wants to know ... how to make the screen Move like to make a car in the middle of the screen and moves as it moves ?

View 2 RepliesIf we have a Bitamp with more than 16777216 pixels (or one side larger than 8191 px) Flash 10 doesn't show it (Flash 9 and earlier has smaller limits even).One solution to this is to use scrollRect to limit the size displayed.OK, that works.
But Flash 10 has another problem, if we use any 3D property (rotationX, z, etc), flash transforms your MC in bitmap, so we can reach the above limit even when we are not working with bitmaps...A bigger problem is that although our MC could be really small (at least less than 16777216 pixels), when we apply a 3D transform like rotationX, the displayed MC can grows enough to reach the limit. And... we can't use scrollRect with 3D MC. But we have a trick here too, there are two ways to use scrollRect with 3D:
1. Create a 2D parent, then create the 3D displayObject inside of that parent.
2. Set cacheAsBitmap to true for the 2D parent.
3. Create a grandparent container to hold the first two items.
4. Set cacheAsBitmap to true for the grandparent container.
5. Apply scrollRect to the grandparent container.
These methods are really differents, with the second I couldn't use scrollRect to avoid reaching the bitmap limit. I think that's because in the second we apply scrollRect to the parent and 3D to the child, so nothing breakes our child from growing.With the firs method we apply scrollRect to the child, and the 3D property to the parent.
Code:
var p: Sprite = new Sprite();
var c: Sprite = new Sprite();
p.addChild(c);

View 1 Replieshey I have a large map in an mc and navigation buttons to control the map.
2 questions:
1.Does anyone know how to set limits on this? my image is w2200 h2980? stage is 1000w x 740h I am using code like this? Th buttons are either 1 or a 0 so i think the limit function needs to be in this section.
2. does anyone know how to adjust the script for zoom so that the image will zoom in n out without refocusing on a specific point. my large map move to a specific location as it zooms. it would be cooler if the the map zoomed in and out based on current location.

I am making a SUDOKU generator(ActionScript2.0), which would (for now) generate the full and correct sudoku table. To do that I need to use recursive functions for calculating all the possible values. The problem is that when I try to run my program I get this error :
Code:
256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.
This is probably an infinite loop.
Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie.Is it possible to somehow work around this limitation?

View 3 RepliesI often need to divide quantities in recipes. Normally, this is straightforward: I have an array of items to divide and a total, so I can do something like
[Code]...
However, this time I have been handed a curve ball: some of the items have a maximum amount they can be. For example, item A has a maximum amount of .25, item B is maximum of 1, the other items have no limits. So if the total amount is 3, and I am dividing it by 3 items I can't simply set each one's amount to 1 (as I normally would, as the code above does). I need to set the amount of A to .25 so there is still the .75 "left over" that I now need to apply evenly to the remaining items.
So that means the other 2 items B and C would be 1.375 each -- but, as I said above B also has a limit (of 1), so B would be 1 and C (no limits) would get the whole .75 remainder, and be 1.75. So A=.25, B= 1, C=1.75 for the total of 3. My question is, even conceptually, how would I approach a problem such as this in AS?
