ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A List Of All These Open 'plots' In An Array?
Nov 26, 2009
I'm building a kind of dynamic level generator, at the moment I have it draw a grid of alternating coloured squares/plots (for visual debug), currently set at 1 pixel which I then scale up so they are easier to see. I make a list of all these open 'plots' in an array(maybe a dictionary would be better?)... Next I draw a random selection of roads on top of my grid in another sprite. Ranging in width from 2 to 8 plots. First drawing all the horizontal, and then the vertical ones. Now I'm wondering what would be the best way of finding all the plots/pixels that these roads occupy?I thought perhaps I could draw the roads into bitmap data, and then find the x,y values of all the black pixels? something like:
PHP Code:
var bData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(roads.width, roads.height, false);
bData.draw(roads)
I have a line chart with 4 line series with diamond, circle, box and triangle as item renderer for the plots for these 4 line series.Now my requirement is I want to show labels for the plots in the chart. It should be like this : I tried with some item renderes but not getting it correctly since I want to use the circles and triangles to render the plots.
Flex has a plotchart component and a linechart component.. but I am looking to make a chart that has lines connecting points as well as larger dots with rollover info. Is this easily possible? Would I have to create a custom component from scratch to achieve this?
I have a Flash animation that is entirely created with AS 2.0. It creates a line graph based on some data. It works perfectly as is, but I'd like to add a little flair. As it plots the points and connects the lines, I'd like to have a tiny pause between each. I'd like the user to see the line being drawn across the screen rather than it all appearing instantaneously.Is there any code that can make a script "pause" for a set amount of time?
When a user selects a category from the first drop down box then i want the 2nd drop down to be updated based on the selection of the first drop down. I have created multiple ArrayCollections whose names are set to the "data" values of the first drop down, for instance:
[Bindable] public var countries:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {label:"USA",data:"USA"},
I'll start by posting my code then explain what I want it to achieve.

What I am attempting and failing to do after much trial and error is to have a random ingredient from the ingredientList array pushed into the previewIngredients array making sure the new value going in is not already in the preview ingredients array. If the same value is there I want it to keep choosing an ingredient from the list array until it finds a value thats not in the preview array then push that one in there. It feels like I'm getting close but obviously I'm either going about it the wrong way or just missing a little somthing somthing out.
I have flash cs4, and I am using a list component. I know how to open swf when somebody clicks on the list, but is there any way to tell the component to open a .pdf file on a new window using the list component?
When a combobox is elected in the flex app, there is a quick flicker, then the combobox needs to be selected again in order to get the dropdown to open. After that, the dropdown works as expected, but only while selecting the control subsequent times while on the form. Reloading the form requires the double selection again.
how to populate a list box component located within a seperate mc in my swf with an array... the array comes from a response from a webservice call. I am not currently on the computer with my source code available so lets just use the following....
listdata[i] = the array i want to populate the list box with..... (listdata1, listdata2, listdata3, listdata4, etc. etc.) movieclip1 = the MC within my fla containing the list box component mylist = the actual list component
... just not all that familiar with the format of actionscript when working with objects... using CS3 and as2 btw,
When you open flash by default your greeted with the welcome screen, right? Ok. Question is how do I erase the "open recent item" list? I don't want to see anything there. Is there a cache setting I can reset or erase to do this?
Is there a way to have a flash control scroll through a number of images with descriptions without knowing Flash?Perhaps like LightBox but with nice scrolling.
I use the Open Resource Window (Command-Shift-R) a lot in Flash Builder and it saves me a lot of time. But I canīt seem to get it to work with my projects xml files. I know this has been working on previous projects ut I canīt find any settings for this.
Could someone share list of active and popular open source Rich Internet Applications or desktop application (not library or framework) that are built by Adobe AIR/Flex? The popularity and quality I am looking for are something like Azureus/Vuze (Java), XBMC etc. [url]...
I am trying to add data from my XML list into an array. I keep getting a error in the output panel and I marked what line it is failing on. Can someone share with me how to do this?

For my work i'm trying to get an Array properly into a text field. The array is being taken out of XML and then turned into the array and fed into a textfield. But it shows up like this:
I'm currently working on a project where I need to access multiple devices with differing IP addresses and Ports. I've defined "buttons" that will go to specific devices depending on the user input (sorry, hard to explain but I'm sure you'll get it). Everything works like a charm but I'd really like to see if there is a better way to code the following (maybe with an array) but I can't get it to work.
I will have up to 20 different devices so I'd like to streamline the code instead of having a bunch of "if" statements. As you can see, it's all the same just incrementing the TKsocket name.
Is it possible that object can be store in array list. package { // Importing object from flash library import flash.text.TextField; import flash.display.Sprite; // Creating class public class Show extends Sprite { [Code] .....

So, pretty much I have made a little flash app for a project at uni, and I have a tree which these little bat creates land onI have drawn the tree as a MC, and then use a hitTestPoint function to check wether the centre point of each bat character is touching the tree. If so land... blah blah pretty simple.Except I need to create a function that actually randomly spawns these characters on the tree. So to do this i would ideally have a get function that collects every x and y point on the and stores this data into a list
I want to sort an Array list in flash as3. xmllistcollection class work for flex but how can i do that in cs5 ,i hav tried to import the swc but it does seem that class in to this flex swc.

[URL] -heres a intresting portfolio site at the bottum they have 3 columns i want to do they same thing where they select from the first list they select from the secong list then the description shows up and loads a swfs which of these two methods would be easier to use
Basically each row in my table is a different food. I have columns for basic things like description. But, I have a "ingredients" array, and "how much" array, in an array. Basically on my end I can go ingredientsArray[0] howMuch[0] to display the ingredient and how much of it. So, Id like to save both of these arrays in a cell for the row of the food. I heard I could serialize the array, and save it. But I need it to be searchable. (Also, there is no set limit to how many ingredients. So I cant like have a column for each thats why I am going the array route). I'm doing my programming in AS3, and usng AMFPHP to connect to Mysql.
Premesis:I am using actionscript with two arraycollection containing object with value to be matched...Let's assume I have two list of elements A and B (no duplicate values) and I need to compare them and remove all the elements present in both, so at the end I should have
in A all the elements that are in A but not in B
in B all the elements that are in B but not in A
now I do something like that:
for (var i:int = 0 ; i < a.length ;) { var isFound:Boolean = false;[code].....
I cycle both the array and if I found a match I remove the items from both of the array (and don't increase the loop value so the for cycle progress in a correct way).I was wondering if (and i'm sure there is) there is a better (and less CPU consuming) way to do it...
