Feb 13, 2009I'm trying to work out how to create a simple demo that works as follows: A ball falls from the top of the stage.Player is able to draw a line anywhere on the stage. The ball will bounce/roll along the line such that the player can guide it at will. I don't think the coordinate rotation will be a problem for me but I can't figure out how to transform a line drawn by the player into a hit detectable sprite -- or realkly any way that I can get those line coordinates into my coordinate rotation routine. To keep it simple, I'm just working on the first part of the problem, getting the line to where I can hit test or know its position.Here is my code so far:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;[code]........
It always traces 0,0 instead of my current line coordinates - and even those I don't think would be sufficient.

Jan 16, 2011Internally Flash obviously keeps a list of the primitives drawn using Graphics so I wondered if you have many such primitives in a Sprite, can you re-position/remove/alter individual items rather than clear and re-draw everything? Or is this deeper into the bowels of Flash than you're allowed (or recommended) to go?

Jan 5, 2012After shearing a drawn square, the path is left open: i.e. after printing (via printJob) the swf, and opening it in Illustrator, it's clear the path wasn't closed. (the same when you use drawPath or lineTo to create the sheared shape btw).
how to make sure the path is closed? For example:
var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
square.graphics.lineStyle(4);
square.graphics.drawRect(100, 100, 100, 100);

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: StartDrag To Path - Passing Custom Drawn Shape Like Curve
Nov 19, 2009I am currently looking to see what the bounding are for the start drag method. And by the looks of it the bounding is set by passing the rect() object to the dragUpdater/ constructor. My question then is can you pass a custom drawn shape like a curve or what ever? By the looks of it you can not as specified by the adobe reference doc.
startDrag()method
public function startDrag(lockCenter:Boolean = false, bounds:Rectangle = null):void
So from this I would conclude that to have a custom drag path one would have to create a custom class.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clips To Follow Path?
Oct 25, 2009I am working on a circular gallery 6 images/movie clips and two buttons. I would like to have these images move around a circular path, clockwise when the right button is hit and counter clockwise when the left one is hit. I am just learning action script so my understanding of it is extremely basic. I don't necessarily need all the code just conceptualize how this would be done. I don't want to use the time line (if that's not possible just let me know).The only things I can think of would be to have the images move on a path or painfully swap out the buttons for new ones that look exactly the same but move different clips for each scenario.

This should leave one line on the screen, then they are free to move their mouse and repeat the action again.

Nov 2, 2010On mouse move i have a line drawn using lineTo method. This works like in Paint or most drawing programs: the mouse drawing like a pencil. What i need now, and dont know how to accomplish, is to add a number of mclips over that line. And this mclips should be over the line but separated to each other (different x and y of the drawn line). So in the end when moving the mouse the user should get a line and, every certain distance, a number of mclips over it.

May 2, 2010make my hero go back to his shelter when he finds some food or when he approaches an enemy. It looks like this:
1. The hero is in the shelter.
2. The hero is hungry.
3. The hero leaves the base to hunt some animals down.
4. The hero is full and is headed back to the shelter.
5. He moves in the direction of where the base is.
So, once again, how do I make my hero go back to where he came from? How do I make my hero's x and y position to fit the way back home?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect Angle Of A Line Drawn With API?
Jun 26, 2011I'm drawing a simple line with API and I would like to know how to detect what angle the line has and where a ball hits it.Scenario: the player draws a random line in a random angle, a ball comes in from random points and hits the line, the ball then bounces off the line depending on where it hit the line (and of course depends on the line's angle).I draw the red line with this: (on a 400x400 stage)Actionscript Code:graphics.lineStyle(2, 0xFF0000, 100);graphics.moveTo(150, 150);graphics.lineTo(250, 250);The grey, green and purple lines are just demonstation of the ball movement, comming in from outside the screen, hitting the line and bouncing off in different directions. I just made a guess on the angle they will bounce off in.
I just can't figure out how to detect the line's angle and where the ball hits it. So all I have is a ball flying in from random positions and hitTests the line (not coded yet, but no problem to do ball movement and hitTesting with line), I don't know where to go from there until I know how to detect where it hits the line.I know this is a double post (from the Games section), but I realized this place seems to have more activity and not many seem to visit the Games place anymore.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Mc Over Some Points Of A Line Drawn With LineTo Method
Nov 1, 2010this is the thing: Using "lineTo" i get a line drawn on stage when dragging a mc. Then i should have four mc (note1, note2, note3, note4) added randomly over this line. I mean, the line is drawn and then over some parts of this line, using x and y of some of the points drawn there, this movie clips should be added randomly. I can make the mc appear randomly, but always in the same point (mouseX, mouseY); i cannot access others x and y of the drawn line. This is my code (noteContainer is a sprite):
Code:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Toggle Line Drawn With Graphics.DrawPath?
Mar 7, 2011I have an application that creates a chart dynamically. This chart has a lot of information plotted on it (4-6 stock trends). I want to be able to toggle some of those lines with a button. Each trend is drawn with something like this:
Code:
// establish a new Vector object for the commands parameter
var line_commands:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int>();
line_commands.push(1,2,2,2);
// establish a new Vector object for the data parameter
var line_coord:Vector.<Number> = new Vector.<Number>();
// use the Vector array push() method to add a set of coordinate pairs
line_coord.push(0,0, 75,50, 100,0, 125,50);
graphics.drawPath(line_commands, line_coord);
How would I toggle the line I just drew? My first idea would be to put some of this code inside a function and redraw the line with the same color of the movie's background color. I don't know if this is the best option, I was wondering if I could draw this line inside a Sprite or Movie Clip and just toggle its visibility?

Actionscript 3 :: Get Ending Point Of A Line Drawn With LineTo In Flash?
May 10, 2011I have drawn a series of lines using flash's graphics.lineTo command, and placed them in an array to be referenced later. Based on certain user interactions, the clips that hold these lines can be shifted to the right, causing the lines to move with them, no longer connecting to the point they originally connected to. So I need to extend the lines by the amount their parent clip was shifted (I've called this incVal). So what I need to do is find the point at which each of these lines ended at, and draw from that point to the left by incVal. How do I get that ending point of the line?
This is my code:
To draw line and add it both to the clip and to an array for future reference:
line.graphics.lineTo(localPoint.x,localPoint.y-10);
membersRef.addChild(line);
parallelArr.push(line);
