ActionScript 3.0 :: Textfield Painted Into Bitmapdata Bug ?

Jan 24, 2009

If I create a simple Textfield and place it on the stage, it looks good.If I take the same Textfield, and paint it into a BitmapData (first putting the Textfield into a Sprite so I can paint it), the resulting BitmapData is not the same, pixel for pixel, as the original textfield on the stage.refer to the attached image for a zoomed in view on the differences in the aliasing. What can I do to keep the two pixel-for-pixel identical?

Code:
private static function doTest( stg:Stage ):void
{
var tf:TextField = new TextField();[code]....

Flash :: Achieve A Smooth Painted Curve For A White Board App?

Feb 23, 2010

I'm building a simple white board app in ActionScript 3. Most white board or painting apps in ActionScript tend to use an interval, timer, mouseMove event, or enterFrame event to track the mouse position and paint lines or brushes in between the tracked points.

What I'm trying to achieve is the nice smooth painted line that a program like Photoshop can render while painting with the brush tool. In Photoshop, no matter how fast you move the mouse around the canvas, the painted lines always end up with a nice smooth curved edge. In my app, using any of the methods mentioned prior, there is always latency between the function calls that render the brush to the stage. Thus, using any of those techniques can result in a sharp cornered line when moving the mouse very quickly in a circular manner.

This is no surprise to me, I just have no idea how I could achieve a smoother line like Photoshop's brush tool. Mind you, the brushes for my app are mostly based on shapes and do not or cannot use the drawing API to draw continues lines. In other words, graphics.curveTo() is not an option. I am also rendering the Sprites or Shapes generated by the brushes to a BitmapData instance.

ActionScript :: Custom Flex/ UIComponent Keeps Getting Painted Multiple Times During A Resize?

Nov 19, 2010

I've created a custom uicomponent and whenever the browser or its specific container is resized, a repaint occurs but the contents of the component get drawn again and again and again...So, if I move the container I'll end up with multiple circles drawn on top of each other but offset depending upon where the container is when the repaint occurs.My updateDisplayList code is below.Do I need to do some sort of clear so that it doesn't contiuously getting duplicated like this?

override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number, unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);

Actionscript 3 :: Scrollbar With Sprite And Rectangle Won't Move Text, Just The Rectangle It's Painted On?

Mar 8, 2010

For those of you still with me, I am tasked with making some scrollable content in Flash. Load in a TextFile using LoadURL(), then display it. To get the text, we've written our own class TextFieldExtended, which is basically just there to give the textfile location to the constructor and then have the class do the various steps of getting it and loading it for you.So I needed to get a Scrollbar, which I got hereThe thing is, it works with Sprites.After trying to get it to accept TextFieldExtended, I bumped into a block, since the scrollbar relied heavily on a Sprite property that TextFieldExtended didn't have or could have.

So I tried adding the TextFieldExtended instance to a Sprite instance using addchild.A problem occurs here that I do not know how to handle. It seems that a Rectangle is drawn and the Text is drawn on that. I say this because the scrollbar moves the Rectangle up and down a bit, but the text doesn't scroll, just the Rectangle it is positioned in and the text then moves along with it.My question: can this be fixed, or is does this implementation of scrollbars need a lot of adaptations before this is possible?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Error #2015: Invalid BitmapData At Flash.display::BitmapData()

Oct 14, 2009

I am trying to use the reflect class from "http://pixelfumes.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflection-class-v3-with-source .html" but I keep getting this error:

btw, first I used assigned thumbContainer as the mc argument (outside the loadThumbs() function) and it worked but not exactly what I wanted... because I thought it is supposed to update when the movieclip is animated but it actually didn't... when I use a scroller, only the thumbs that are first loaded to the stage get the reflection..

Actionscript 3 :: Quickly Rotate The Pixels That Make Up BitmapData Without Using BitmapData.draw()?

Dec 29, 2011

I've been using BitmapData.copyPixels() to draw graphics onto a canvas (Bitmap).I need to rotate the resulting graphics without the use of draw() because it's vastly slower.How can I rotate the target graphic? I'm assuming that there might be a formula or library that I can use which will first reorganize the pixels that make up a graphic based on an origin (point) and radians.I'm pretty certain that I'm not capable of creating such logic, so if there are any known libraries that do this, that would be awesome.I'd like to achieve something similar to XNA's SpriteBatch.Draw() method, which accepts rotation as its 5th argument.

Actionscript 3 :: Graphic Object BitMapData Type The Same As BitmapData Type?

Dec 29, 2009

The title might be a little misleading. Look at my code and I will explain

public static function loadTile(tileDir:String = "empty"):void
{
if(tileDir != "empty")
{
tPoint = new Point(0,0);
tRect = new Rectangle(0,0,30,30);

[Code]...

I am trying to do tiling with sprites. I want my tiles to be interactive, so that is why I am using the sprite object instead of using regular bitMaps to represent my tiles. You might be wondering why I wouldnt just use graphics.beginBitmapFill(tImage); and graphics.drawRect(0, 0,tWidth ,tHeight ); to pick out the tiles I want to use. Well reason being is because it turns out that drawRect() first and second parameters actually alter the location of where the actual sprite sits at.

So if I set the x and y properties of the sprite to x = 20, and y = 20. then I set my drawRect(20,20). it actually adds an extra 20 pixels to my x and y coords of my sprite. And I know the reason why, I just need to know a better way.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Changing Background Color Of TextField When Said TextField Is Selected By User?

May 5, 2010

I am looking to change the background color of a input textField when the user selects that testfield to start populating it. I have done a bunch of searching and I keep coming up with this type of answer...

Code:
myTextField.onSetFocus = Set(evt:Event){
// Change color
}

Problems...

1) Is onSetFocus/onKillFocus still available? From what I can tell it is not.

2) I have my text objects encapsulasted in a class so I do not believe I am able to do it like I have been suggested.

ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField On Separate Frame Is Null Then Becomes A Textfield?

Jun 29, 2010

Attached is basically a recreation of the problem. What I'm basically trying to do is a tooltip window with 4 frames. Each frame has different textfields but also some the same. Like the "Weapon" frame has textfields called namebox, typebox, levelbox, and damagebox, while the "Armor" frame has namebox, typebox, levelbox, and defensebox.

In the attachment there is a Movieclip called awd on the stage. It has 2 keyframes in it called "Weapon" and "Drop" each with their own textfields but they are both called "box". I have a click event listener that makes awd go to its second frame and outputs the second child in awd, which will be the textfield. The problem is when I click the first time, awd goes to the second frame but it outputs null instead of Object TextField. When I click again it outputs Object TextField. If I trace the number of children it gives me 2. So I don't know how it can be null.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Scroll TextFIeld Objects - Change The TextField.y Value

Mar 17, 2009

I've got a flash document using AS3. It dynamically reads data from an XML file, and creates a bunch of single line textFields. Could be like this:

<XMLdata>
<Line>this is line 1</Line>
<Line>this is line 2</Line>
<Line>this is line 3</Line>
</XMLdata>

So, for each node, it would create a new TextField, and change the textField.y value so that they are "stacked" on top of each other. All this if fine, except that if you hae so many "lines" (or textfields) that the "stack" is taller than the Flash Document size. What I would like to do is have a scroll bar or something so you can scroll the stack of TextFields. Doesnt' even need to be a scroll bar. Maybe an arrow button at the bottom, and when you click on it, it scrolls down. One for up too.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Set The Focus Back To The Textfield And Put The Caret At The End Of The Textfield?

Jul 24, 2011

I have a numerical stepper,and a user can click on a textfield, then click the up and down arrows on the stepper to change the font size,i then try and set the focus back to the textfield and put the caret at the end of the textfield, but the stepper keeps focus anyway.Here is the event handler for when the stepper value is changed.Get the textfield's current format, change the size, set the new format, then focus on the textfield and set the caret position, but the caret just stays inside the stepper.

Code:
private function handleChangeTextSize(e:Event):void
{
var tField:TextField = Main.LAST_FOCUSED_OBJECT;[code]....

I've had problems with other components too with the exact same focus issue and the only solution i've ever come up with is to set a timeout for like 100 milliseconds to set the focus back then and it works. another way to do this without the "hack"?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Reference To TextField To Update TextField

Jan 22, 2010

I have two text fields and the user can use a button to underline text in either field. I have a listener on each field that keeps tracks of the last clicked in field.
 
public function setLastActiveTextField(event:FocusEvent):void {            lastTextActiveField=event.currentTarget;            trace(lastTextActiveField.name);        }

[Code]....

lastActiveTextField is defined as an Object.  When the highlight button is hit, it reports the correct the range,  but I can't figure out how to send the formatting to the actual textfield without setting up another if (lastActiveTextField.name==field2) control.  Also, stage.focus won't work because the object isn't really on the stage, I guess.  There has to be a way to refer to the textField object.
