ActionScript 3.0 :: Printing Code Have And An Image Of The Stage?
Jun 6, 2011
I have problems understanding the way you can print from flash, reviewing the documentation I found the PrintJob Class nad I'm trying to make it work. It was easy with AS2, but now I can't get it to work, I need it for AS3.The issue is, I have a code generated chart, and want to print it, with some extra stuff, but to begin the chart would be fine.this is the printing code I have and an image of the stage. The commented code I've tried also, none of them working. I think that's because the way it's handling the chart, and the (maybe) Sprite the printJob is trying to add.

Is there any way to print all code and scripts that are inside of (and ideally, even imported into a .fla?? I've been brought on board a project with existing code, and I am having a real hard time discovering all the little hidden code bits inside of the Flash file. There's script attached to objects, script in imported .as files....there's script everywhere...and I don't know of any way to -see- all of it and print it out so I can go over it.For instance, in the Actions window, it'd be nice if I could right-click on "Scene 1" and select "Print" and have all of those little scripts print out.Even a way to do a "Flash-file-wide" (including all imported script files) Find/Search would be nice (something similar to Dreamweaver's site-wide "Find and Replace"). It seems like Flash limits its searches to the exact file window you have open at the time.
In particular, I'm currently looking for a function that is called - but whose code I cannot find anywhere. A "Find" inside the main .fla turns up nothing, and I've tried searching the outside .as files and still can't locate it. Just in case it was a built-in Flash library function I wasn't familiar with, I searched for that, too. No dice.Is there any functionality like this? Is it on anyone else's wish list? How does everyone else locate all the code bits on a large Flash project that has been undocumented?

this code(which I think is the code to import an image onto the stage dynamically using AS3 code and convert it to MovieClip, so that i can access mouse_click events on the image present on the stage.):
//Attach code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;

I am trying to replace some code which loaded an external image and triggered and function once completed with code that uses and embedded image. The relevant code looks like this.
Code:
[Embed(source='globe.png')]
public function Globe()
{
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
[code]....
The commented out section is where it used to take the loaded image and apply it to a texturemap.I need to replace the lines of code in the first function with something that calls the second function correctly.
I have tried using function imageLoadComplete (e:Event = null)and calling it with imageLoadComplete(); in the first function but although it compile and runs without error, the program does not work properly. I suspect this is to do with the dispatchEvent(); line which I do not understand.

I'm new-ish with flash and I am making a stand-alone player that I need a few things to print and have hit trouble when I try and do them.I can print the entire stage no problem.
- What I was hoping to do is have 3 print buttons, 1 would print a section of the player. The other a different section. and the last would print the whole stage (which I've already scripted).
- I've had a look at Print num scripts etc, but am hugely confused.
Has anyone got the script for printing a section of a flash stage?PS Can you set those x and y values to print something off the stage

I have a flash stage which is in grey color. I have a blank movieclip which is in light pink in bgcolor. Can anyone tell me why when I tried to print the movieclip, my paper background will be printed grey? Is it because of my flash stage color? How do I fix this? (my original paper is white in color)

I 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.

I have been working on product configurator with AS3 for several months now.I am not proficient with AS3.Now, it seems that maybe my design is all wrong.I
I have a main timeline that has movie clips showing images of different options for the product.On the first frame, I use buttons to select the choice for option 1 from the Option1_mc.Then I store the choice in a variable.I use a button to go to the next choice (frame 10.)
On frame 10, I use buttons to select the choice for option 2 from the Option2_mc.This is stored in another variable.
There are about 10 options that are selected and stored in variables.Some are text values and others are instances of images from the Option movie clips.
I made a Print_mc to use for printjob.I can't get the values of the variables to display in the first frame for printing.

My Flex 3 app prints pages just fine from browsers on Windows using FlexPrintJob (not the browser print function). However, on OSX, the left and top margins show up larger and the page gets pushed off the right and bottom. Basically, the scaling is screwed up, and I can't see any way to adjust the margins in code.Has anyone seen this discrepancy in Flex printing between Windows and OSX? Are there any known workarounds? I've searched all over and I can't find any good info on this (other than 12 unresolved printing bugs in the Adobe Jira DB)
PDF Generation is one route and while its a valid solution for some folks, I need to print directly. I'd like to see stuff like using regular Flash PrintJob, monkeypatches to FlexPrintJob, or just ways I can format my DisplayObjects before sending them to FlexPrintJob. None of the scaling options in FlexPrintJob work. My Flex Component is at 1.0 scale. I'm not sure what else I can do except for mess around with regular PrintJob.

As stupid as my question might sound, i have spent the last 2 weeks reading oop books; but could use some guidance. I have a flash project that is basically a supped up slide show. On the stage i have the following: main_mc (instance name = images_mc) = movieclip which holds "pictures" ui1 (instance name = ui1_mc) = user interface that allows user to draw on picture (when drawing is enabled) ui2 (instance name = ui2_mc) = activates invisible hit areas (buttons) on select pics, when hit area is clicked, we jump to another pic in the main_mc.
I accomplished all of this on the timeline, but am updating the code to OOP. I am having A HELL OF A TIME trying to figure out how to store references to the instances (images_mc etc..), so i can control them from varying class files. I have found it is easy to control the instances from the documentclass, but not from unrelated class files. Example: images_mc.stop(); works in document class; but ovieclip(Parent).images_mc.stop() doesn't seem to work from any class file.(ui2 class file for example);

I see a lot of tutorials about coding actionscript 3 when they use all the code in a Class.I keep thinking every time why they use it in a class, instead of using actionscript on the stage.why it is more functional to code a class instead of putting code in the stage actionscript?

trying to print a movieclip with a white backgroundwhile keeping the stage background black.The movieclip,printResults_mc has a white rectangle in the bottom layer, 850pixels x 1100 pixels. The following function scales printResults_mcto the printers printable area but because isimpossible to predict the aspect ratio of the printable area someblack background always leaks out. I tried making the whitebackground 20 pixels larger than I need (870 x 1120) and thensetting a crop rectangle in addPage of (10,10,850,1100), no luck,the black stage background just fills in the area outside the crop.A simple solution would be to temporarily set the stage backgroundcolor property to white, print, then set it back to black, but I

I have a Flash CS4 Professional version installed in my machine. Here is my problem.
1st - I'm importing an image to stage and set the width and height to match the image. (everything is good, no problem) 2nd - I am using the FLVPlayback components build-in from Flash CS4. It does load the video and everything. (everything seems good) 3rd - Publish the video to my local drive (everything seems good) 4th - I could play the video from my local pc and it loads fine and fast 5th - Upload everthing from my local folder to the Web server, it does display the background image but not the video. It has a white blank screen. What is going on? I copy the exact folder from local to server. What have I missed? How could I make the video to load?

I'm creating a moodboard application where the user can dynamically load an image onto the stage by pressing a thumb of the image in a menu item. I have most of that working but what I would like to know is that, if there is a way the user can interactively scale/transform the image when it is on the stage in the swf file?

I have found 2 different Threads about the topic, which worked fine.[URL]... and it seems that it is close to what I am trying to achieve. However, the codes that they came up with don't seem to work with mine. I attached the FLA.Anybody has a solution so when the stage is scaled down smaller than the original image size, the image stops scaling. And the image doesn't distort. The eagle on the intro scales proportionately and the one when you go to campaign section behaves exactly like I would like to.I've found the website here by the way, which was the starting point of my experimentation.
Code:
//stage properties
Stage.align = "TL";

I'm aware that ActionScript 3.0 is designed from the ground up to be a largely object-oriented language and using it means less or even no timeline code in Flash documents.I'm quite experienced with OOP and am comfortable writing classes. However, since I mostly use Flash for animations, I hardly ever need to write ActionScript code other than for preloaders, subtitles, quality controls, website links and so on. In fact, I still set my Flash movies to use AS2 to this day because I'm used to gotoAndPlay()/gotoAndStop(), AS2 preloaders, subtitles, quality controls and even getURL(). Of course, I really want to move on now that practically everyone's on Flash Player 9 or 10 and now that I've dabbled with other OO languages like Java, C# and Objective-C too.
I'm a complete newcomer to AS3 and am not very learned with AS2 either. Considering my current use of ActionScript, are there any cases where it's still OK to use very simple AS3 code in the timeline instead of moving code to a class, especially since moving to a class might mean unnecessarily increasing the number of LOC from 4 to 40?

I'm starting to learn AS3, and a question comes to mind. Let's say I'm in the authoring environment and I draw a rectangle on the Stage, set some properties - fill color, etc. - and then convert to button symbol.
Question 1 - Is Flash creating AS code that records these actions (create an instance, set properties, etc.)?
Question 2 - If Flash is creating AS code, is there any way we can see that code?

When I'm laying out objects on the code, I noticed that I'm having a hard time getting things to stack properly. I know that I need to be dealing with the index property, but I don't know how.
What are some properties, methods etc that can help me easily move around my objects on the stage and visually stack them properly? (Also, can multiple objects have the same index?)

I have this .fla that loads and xml file along with several other classes. This purpose of this file is to zoom content. Whenever you use your cursor to zoom, it goes to the exact location where your mouse pointer is. My problem is --it only works fine when the image is 200px by 200px or less. The image that I wanna load will be at least 500 by 500. I tweaked the settings but the zoom zooms too slow or too fast. I think the image size conflicts with the zoom.
here is the code in .fla
