Copy Artwork On A Stage Layer Into Movie Stage?
Oct 8, 2009I have drawn a pecked line route, sitting on its own layer, using flash tools, over a base map.

Using Vector Or Raster Graphics When Manipulating 3D Artwork?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3 :: How To Optimize Illustrator Artwork In Flash
Apr 29, 2010I'm working on a flash project that incorporates a lot of artwork done in Illustrator CS4. I've been copy-pasting directly from Illustrator into Flash, and I add some animations as well. Final file is going to be a one single swf file which will be a part of UI for an application and .net will be the core for this. But now flash becomes unusable slow to respond for actions. My machine is a fast i7 with 6gb of RAM, so I don't think that's the issue. We are going to use this file with dual core atom processors. Does anyone have ideas for alternative importing techniques, optimizations within illustrator, anything at all that will make this more manageable?
View 1 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Copy Illustrator Artwork Into Flash?
May 23, 2011I have produced some vector artwork in illustrator for use inside a Flash Project. When I import the artwork into Flash the importer appears to place all of the element into many nested groups and creates folders in my library. Is there a way to import the graphics from illustrator as flat shapes rather than these nested groups?
Currently I am importing into Flash and having to go into each group and cut the shapes out and paste them into an empty MovieClip which is very time consuming.
Actionscript 2.0 :: Components Make Artwork Disappear?
Feb 26, 2009when I inserted the code some of the symbols on stage disappeared. This did not surprise me because I did not understand the code, but then when I deleted the code it did not revert back. I dismantled the frame and dragged new symbols on stage and I still could not see them when I tested the movie. Checked to see if any code was written anywhere else but could not find any. The only code I had was a gotoAndStop which I was using simply to view that specific frame. when I removed the gotoAndStop finally the images appeared. If I placed a stop on the frame I wanted to view, then it worked fine but a gotoAndStop did not work as I was left with a white screen. Finally I had to recreate everything in a new document and then the gotoAndStop worked, but I have noticed that if I drag certain components on stage then I have a similar disappearing act.

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML - Display Album Artwork In The Audio Player
Mar 7, 2007I'm trying to work with an .XML playlist. I actually need it to do a lot of things that I can't figure out how to do..

I also want to add a few other data fields, I would like when you click on the song title to play the audio track, but also show the Artist name, the song title, the artist record label, a link to the artists website and a short section for comments from the artist about the song. Is it possible to do something like this, using this tutorial? <song title="song" artist="artist" src="mp3s/song.mp3" /> How would I add an image to this?

View 6 RepliesActionScript 1/2 :: Click Broadcast - Placing Artwork And Contents On Timeline
Jan 6, 2010I'm making some elearning courses and we are trying to combine semi-automation with the ability to place artwork and content on the timeline. Basically we have a series of small tasks -- read this, click this button, see the result, and so on. We have a "highlight" area component that indicates the area a user is to click. Currently that component dispatches and event from the instance when it is clicked and the main timeline is listening for the event and then moves them ahead to the next task when they have clicked properly.
So the following code:
myClickAreaInstance.addEventListener("clicked",handleClick)
And the handleClick function and removing the listener all has to be handled on the timeline. And for a given task there might be an intro animation and the click area component might not come in until the end. So where to put that code and how to automate it becomes tricky. So I first dug up AsBroadcaster and could use it sort of like Mouse or Key classes.
AsBroadcaster.initialize(ClickArea)
ClickArea.addListener(this);
function clicked(obj){
//handle click broadcast
[Code] .....
Would it be better to us AsBroadcaster or EventDispatcher?
Flash :: Graphically Speaking Isn't What Really Makes A Game 'rich' Artwork?
Sep 10, 2010I've been thinking about flash and html5 and though each of them can draw circles, rectangles, curves, and do things with images, doesn't it really come down to the artwork? Game play aside (I know ugly games can be fun), all the talk about which looks best canvas or flash or something else, kind of moot? Don't the great games, graphically speaking, have great artwork and modeling so that as long as the engine can handle it, the programming anything other than events associated with those models and artwork doesn't matter? I'm watching my kid play Frontiersville on Facebook and I'm thinking, I could program those events but it's the artwork that's grabbing people and good gameplay keeps them. In the end does the platform really matter for games?

The SWFOBJECT FAQ (question 21) indirectly suggests that this problem does not occur with static publishing. Is this correct? Is it still advisable to implement a solution to this stageWidth/stageHeight problem, even if you are using static publishing?

I always thought that stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight give you the dimensions of the stage you set in the properties panel no matter what.

Oct 24, 2010I have a moving vehicle on the stage, which should change directions according to where I click on the stage.I already made it work using this formula:var angle:Number = Math.atan2(dy,dx)*180/Math.PI+90;However, I need the car to tween to the correct angle, instead of just "jumping" to it. While this is easy enough to do, the car sometimes takes the longer turn (especially when I click in the bottom-left quarter of the stage), and it seems unnatural.

May 17, 2011In my AS3 code all the elements on the page are dynamically positioned depending on the current width and height of the SWF - providing it's not under a certain value, then the items are back in their original position.
When debugging in the Flash player the size all reports correctly however when run from a web browser it does not - initially.
This is my HTML & PHP code for the entire page:
HTML Code:
<?php
function hashId($fn) {
$hash=md5_file($fn);

But I cannot get the size to report correctly without, say, clicking a button.
It seems to me like I need to force flash to re-draw the screen, but I had no luck trying to do that.
