how to disable the "auto combine" (or merge ?) of two simple draw objects (line, square etc.) on the same layer in Flash.
When i draw a line, and then a line that crosses it, they automatically merge in a cross. How to disable it ?
I am creating a program that is effectively an sprite creator. I'm very new to AS3, but I know JQuery, JS, PHP, etc. After going through multiple steps of selecting pieces to customize a character, you are supposed to be able to download the final product using fileReference(). Everything works, and I can download the image in the end, but the problem is that I cannot capture all of several movieclips on the stage, I can only capture one. Maybe this will help clarify:

Could it be that each of the movieclips I'm adding to the sprite have children of their own?
I have 2 dynamic objects and I want to build one to contain all the properties:[code]and I need to obtain a third object that looks like that {prop1: val1, prop2:val2, prop3:val3a, prop4:val4};Basically I need a way to iterate through the object properties and to add new properties to the third object. I have to mention I'm quite new to AS3/Flash/Flex.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to merge two display objects into a single new BitmapData object, when it uses the color from one and the alpha channel from the other. The concept seems straight forward enough but I'm getting lost in the BitmapData APIs. I've been trying to use the Alpha blendmode with draw() but that doesn't seem to work.

Now I am trying to make the gallery move automatically to the next image in the array every 5 seconds while still giving the user the ability to click on an image to view the one that they want.Here is my code so far (like i said it works great, but only as a click-able gallery):

I have a rectangular area that I would like to randomly auto fill with objects.I currently have a custom object, that includes a Rectangle property defining the x,y,width,and height of this particular area.Next I want to be able to randomly fill it with more shape objects, which will randomly vary in size, and position. These objects will be stored in arrays, and will be drawn to a bitmap representing this area. please see the attached diagram.

How do you merge FLV files in Flash Pro CS4?
View 3 RepliesI've multiple videos stored as MovieClip objects and would like to merge them into a single MovieClip video object in order to play all of them in sequence (so that a user thinks it's a single video).
View 4 RepliesI have two FLA files, call them MAP.fla and ANI.fla, that I have to merge. One way I tried was to load the ANI.swf in MAP.swf during runtime using the normal way of doing it, using Loader and URLRequest. However, when I try to run it, flash detects errors about methods I have included in ANI.swf.
I do know that the Loader and URLRequest method of doing it works because I tried using it with a different SWF file with simpler content.
P.S. ANI.swf contains methods, instances with classes of their own and timer events. If Loader cannot work on my SWF, is there any other way of carefully doing this without affecing my FLAs?
Below is the error message i am getting.
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

I'm trying to combine movieclips that I've created in multiple flash files and bring them into a single flash file. The structure of this "program" is it has navigation (forward, backward, menu, contents, etc...) and it is timeline based. On each frame there is a MC that is a mini game (matching game, multiple choice, drag and drop) and the user makes there way through each page. The problem that I'm having is that alone in there respective flash files they work fine and there are no errors or bugs. Then when I try to bring these together and essentially make a longer "program" with all of the smaller flash files put together by coping the frame and pasting it into the bigger file it gives me all kinds of errors and output warnings.

Should I write the logic for the objects in several classes and then make a reference to the object in a sprite class like the following :

And then when I need to do damage just call the WeaponSprite's method weaponModel() when I need to acces the methods or should I just merge the two together into one class.?
I'm writing a web based flash app that's written entirely in AS3. I have objects on the screen as part of a GUI. I would like the user to be able to resize the window, or make it full screen. I would like everything to auto-scale with the resize, but also remain in the same relative position on the stage.
View 1 RepliesI'm making an interactive film. At certain points within the film, the viewer has the ability to select from a few options that will direct them to an external video clip (they are flashback scenes). The main story pauses when the user selects a flashback scene and I'm clear on how to achieve this.
However, my issue is that once the flashback scene ends and the external video closes, I'm not sure how the main story will resume. Is it possible for it to auto-play (resume) in some way? My last resort would be to have the viewer select a play button - this is only because I do not want a break in the narrative and want to limit the amount of clicks the viewer has to make.

View 8 RepliesIs there any way to merge cells (vertically and/or horizontally) in a datagrid? At least, for example, is there a way to show that certain datagridcolumns belong to one group. For example, I'll take three columns: column1, column2, column3. All these three should be grouped to the Category cell with a rowspan of 3 -- a "super header" if you will.
View 4 RepliesI am looking for a solution to this issue but I have not yet found anything conclusive. I would love to get some input. What I need to do is basically to take two or more individual PDF-files and merge them into one. Nothing fancy just sticking one after the other and ending up with one file.
I have found AlivePDF and purePDF but those libs both seem to be focused towards generating PDF's from scratch.
I have an application w/ 2 side-by-side pages of text. I have the VDivided box set up so the user can drag it to make one of the documents bigger or smaller.Is there a way to get the look of a VDivided box & the functionality of an Accordian, so that when the user clicks the VDivided box (or double clicks, I haven't decided) one of the documents will be hidden? (For instance, double clicking on the right-most side of the divider will hide the left document, and vice-versa)
In addition, if the user wanted to drag the divider, then they can do that as well. I don't have much, but here it is so far:

View 4 RepliesWhat is the best way to merge two alpha channels? What I want to do is, given channel values, use the value which is greater.
I tried using .merge(), but it appears to only blend channels with a linear value between current and destination value.
I looked into .draw(), which would work well using a blendmode like LIGHTEN, but it doesn't allow drawing per channel so I can't target the alpha channel only. The ALPHA blendmode didn't seem to do anything when used with .draw(), and ERASE gives an unwanted hard edge.
I also looked into .copyChannel(), but it doesn't allow any blending logic, merely copying a rectangular region from one BitmapData to another.
I keep battling the slideshow, and now I have some other doubts. I tried to find the answer to this on other threads on this forum, but couldnïż½t find anything. So, here it goes:I now have a photo slideshow where one photo fades out, and the next one follows, fading in.Between the fade out and fade in, there is a short interval of white, the background of the flash animation. I have to replace this white interval, with the fadeout of the previous image, so that the first and the next image sort of merge. How can I do this?lso, on the very last image of the presentation, there is a jump back to the first image, without the fadeout. How can the loop be made so that the last image fades out too, and not simply disappear?Here is the code Im using right now:
PHP Code:
delay = 3000; //-----------------------function loadXML(loaded) (loaded) xmlNode = this.firstChild; image = [];

I'm working to create an interactive snow globe in AS3. The user would have a choice of dropping several items into the globe - a house, a candy cane, a fir tree, etc. - and, when done, hit a shake button. The globe and items would shake together, then the snow would appear.I've got the drag and drop and snow functionality (using Flint particles). However, I'm not sure how to get the globe and the items to move together once the user hits play.[code]I'm at a loss as to how to get them both to work together. A DisplayObject, perhaps?
