Oct 28, 2008One thing that's really frustrating me about Flash is that the info panel doesn't display real-time width or height values.So if I'm drawing a rectangle, I can't just draw it out as do in Photoshop to say 400 X 200. I'll need to set this manually after I draw a small box.

Feb 7, 2010So I have a simple as3 project i'm creating in FlashDevlop and I was hoping to create the layout as a simple swf thats loaded in then move the assets where they need to go. Things like roll over states would be stored on different frames to make it nice and easy for designers so they don't have to know flash. And loading it is no problem but how do you target the movie clips inside it or how do you even attach it to the root? When I say target I mean as in how would I target it to change say the height or width. I know this is broad question so even pointers to a good FAQ or example project would be helpful. I spent a little time on google but all im finding is how to load a SWF not how to deal with it afterwards.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Manipulating MovieClips In An Array
Jan 19, 2011I have a rather unusual problem. I've got an Array consisting of ten different MovieClips (all pre-placed on the stage), and would like to be able to manually use the gotoAndStop and gotoandPlay commands on these via the array. I've tried ActionScript Code: //This script does not work IconArray[1].gotoAndStop(1); however it simply throws out an error. Is such precise manipulation of MovieClip arrays even possible, and if so, how would I code it? (Nb: I've looked at the ForEach method, but couldn't find a way to make it sit my current dilema).
View 4 RepliesLoading And Manipulating MovieClips Fullscreen
May 5, 2009I am working with a site that's similar to : [URL]. When you click on Wedding Site and then go to the gallery, you will see the pics loading full screen and the navigation bar on top of the pics. What I have done is I have made each one of this pics a separate .swf file so
they load individually once they are called using the " loadMovie("pic1.swf") code line. On layer 10 (being at the very top) I have my menu so it will always display on top
of anything else. Now on layer 3, frame x I have a movieclip called : fotos_mc,
inside this fotos_mc on layer 1, frame 1 I call the swf using the code above:
"loadMovie(pic1,swf");
However when the picture loads, it covers the full screen on top of my navigation menu, on top of my logo etc. Which I dont understand why if the layer where I have placed my fotos_mc is under layer 10 which contains my menu and my logo.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Manipulating The Imported Movies?
Oct 28, 2005I have a list of external movies. I want to import them only once and then use them as many times as I want. I need to attach them to other clips the same way I would attach them if they were in my current library with linkage option on.suppose i have a movie called s1.swf in the same location with my movie. then I have this code:
Code:
function createObj(objname, whichMc, level) {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(objname, level);
_root[objname].createEmptyMovieClip("mc", 1);
[code]...
I don't know why the event handler for the movie "mc" is not invoked ... I have no trace record in the outpus window.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Duplicating And Manipulating Loaded SWF?
Nov 12, 2010I am trying to make a card game.
The main fla file loads an external swf file that is a movie clip that has the card art images (one card art on each frame)
This works good and I can view the loaded swf on the stage.
public function FinishedLoading(loadEvent:Event):void {
LoadedMovie = MovieClip(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
addChild(LoadedMovie);
}
What I want to do in another function is to duplicate the load swf, so that I can have 52 of the same object, each with a different picture. I need to know how to create an instance of the loaded swf.
I would like to control each instance of the loaded swf by telling each one independently of each other to go to and stop at a specific frame such as 3 or 17, or 43, based on what card is needed at that time.
This code creates an error:
var NewCard:MovieClip = new LoadedMovie();

Oct 19, 2010using the shape tool you can draw basic shapesthen using the subselection tool you can re-shape them by relocating certain points
What i want to do is create a tween whereby one of the points is movedthe problem is you have to convert to a symbol first and after you have done that you cant change the shapes shape.so how do i go about using a motion tween to change the shape of a shape?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Manipulating Class References In A Array?
Feb 27, 2010i retrieve a list of instances located in a array to manipulate them in a variable holder. Normally, the operations can be made between two instances stored in a simple variable to variable fashion and it works realy fast.I analysed two main operations: retrieving references in a array to a variable and get or set a value from the variable reference.Here are the objects used to perform the test operation:
var v4:Vector.<Person>= new Vector.<Person>();//List of Persons instance
var refHolder:Person; //Typed referencevar refHolder2:*; //Not typed reference
Test #1: looping 200 000 times and only retrieving references from the array v4.[code]........
So my conclusion with that test is that with a typed reference you spend more time assigning a reference than manipulating a value from the reference With a not typed reference, the time spent is in manipulating the reference in the variable.Which one should i use or what should i do to have better performance with manipulating references from arrays?
Here are the files i used to test this:
reference.swf //Online example
reference.zip //Source file
ActionScript 3.0 :: Manipulating Flash Library MovieClips?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading In An Image At 300 Dpi Manipulating It And Saving It As A 300 Dpi Png
Feb 27, 2012I have a project where the user uploads a large 300dpi image, then manipulates it (drag it, rotate it, position it). And the user can reuse this 300 dpi image, basically to make something like a t-shirt pattern. Then when the user is ready, they save this t-shirt pattern, and the save format is a large 300dpi png. This saved png file is for printing. Now I figure I can have PHP take bitmap data (as binary I assume) and the php can create the png. Is it a good idea to use Flash for this? I will have to scale down the users loaded 300dpi image so they can position. Then I assume scale it back up when it comes time to save Does anyone think Flash can't handle this?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Manipulating And Displaying Remote Images?
Oct 22, 2009I've been handed a few Flash files written in CS4, but in ActionScript 2. I know enough ActionScript to be dangerous, but I am far from a Flash developer.
At the high level, the Flash file loads an image, rotates a portion of the center of the image, and allows the user to drag the rotated piece into the proper position (solving a puzzle, basically).
This worked GREAT when the images were loading from the local server. We've changed to remote cloud hosting for the images, though, and now are experiencing issues.
The images still load (we have all of the security and cross-domain policy files in place), but any time we try to rotate the center portion of the image we get a plain gray box instead of the rotated portion of the image.
What's weirder is that the rotated image portions show up fine in the IDE Flash player. But when viewed through a web browser the static portion of the image will load, but the rotated portion will not.
