I have a label and I need the pixel value of the end of the text of the label. I will later later need to set a icon in fronto f the end of the text. I tried label id.x and y but it seems not working. Also for some reason when I do something like <label id>.x+5 it gives me a implicit coercion error...not sure why?
I am looking for a fairly simple image comparison method in AS3. I have taken an image from a web cam (with no subject) passed it in to bitmap data, then a second image is taken (this time with a subject) to compare this data, from these two images I would like to create a mask from the pixels that match on both bitmaps. I have been scratching my head for a while, and I am not really making any progress. Could any one point me in the right direction for pixel comparison method, something like getPixel32()
I have a text, e.g. "hello world". I want to know, what's exactly the textwidth and textheight in pixels depending on a certain font, e.g. Arial, 12, bold. Is there a possibility to calculate the exact size?
I'm trying to do that exploding text effect when it gets converted into pixels and the pixels wander around and recombine to form another word.Themovieclip of a square 5pixels wide and high has instance name of 'a'. What I'm doing right now is to create an array of points and duplicate the movieclip of the pixel and make it move to those points.[code]
I was wondering what the code to get something to go to a whole pixel value is. I'm using pixel fonts inside of a movieclip and when the movie clip is moved through actionscript and lands in a different spot with easing, the fonts look bad because i suspect that they are no longer on pixel values.
I made a menu by attaching movieclips and specifying the text as a variabel. the main movieclip is called meny, then I attach the movieclips txt and pil (pil is norwegian for arrow) inside it, and specify the y pos. This works on my mac, but when I see it on a PC the text is down by aprox. 5-8 pixels.
How do I programatically get the pixel dimensions of my SWF. I tried using stage.width and stage.height, but this seems to be a tight bounding box on all the objects in the video, not the actual viewing area. I also want these pixel dimensions to be accurate as javascript dynamically resizes this SWF.
I have a Flash CS3 movie (AS2) wich uses pixel fonts. The text is within a movie clip that uses the tween class to move with ease. Whe I publish it, everything OK, the text looks very crispy. But I want this movie to be centered in the browser window so I've used the tags <center> </center> in the html file as you can see below. When you play the movie it plays in the center but... with IE8 the text is blurred if the browser window is maximize, but crispy if you minimize the window!! With other browsers it works well with all windows sizes, IE7, Firefox, Safari...
I am trying to get the alpha values in the rect of one (playball_mc) clip inside another bigger clip (dst_mc). The clip dst_mc has a bitmap attatched and also has a shaderFilter that calculates the alpha values.ut I only get alpha values of 0xFF.Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or where the alpha value gets lost?
CODE:var rSource:Rectangle=new Rectangle(playball_mc.x,playball_mc.y,80,80) dst_bmp.draw(dst_mc);bmd1.copyPixels( dst_bmp , rSource, new Point(0,0) ); for
Is there a way to retrieve the color of a generic pixel on the screen using the mouse pointer inside the Stage of Flash Player? With the getPixel method of the BitmapData class you can get the color of a pixel only if the mouse is over a bitmap image, but what if I need the color a generic pixel on the screen?
When the user clicks a point inside the triangle, we will get the x and y coordinates, do some calculation with those values and get some (lots) of pixel coordiantes accordingly (all of those calculated points will be within the triangle). And finally, change the color of those points (something different than triangleShape fill color).
I have a website with a Flash banner. This has worked fine in all major browsers (IE7/8,Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera) for some time, but when I upgraded to IE9, the banner is displayed with a 1 pixel shim on the right-hand edge, which is throwing the layout off.know past versions of IE would display line breaks as white space and I wonder if that's what's going on here. I'm using the AC_FL_RunContent() function to display the Flash file.I'm not sure where to look to debug this, but I'd like to fix it sooner rather than later
I am trying to set a constant hue value for entire image with using ColorMatrix. My goal is to make entire image look with same color without loosing brightness of any area. I found a way to shift the hue values of an image by using ColorMatrix but i couldn't find any way to set same hue value for all pixels. I can do it with iterating every pixel of image but this approach is too slow. I am not sure if it is possible to do it with ColorMatrix and i am open to possible solutions other than ColorMatrix approach.I can do this with iterating pixels but not with ColorMatrix.I am trying to do this on Android but i believe the question is not directly related to the android since ColorMatrix approach is common on other platforms like Flash, C# etc.
Working on a Flash iOS app and I need to utilize a couple Apple APIs. I was thinking, would it be possible to write Pixel Bender classes to access their API? If so, could someone provide a small example to get started? Or is there a different / better approach for this?
I write a Pixel Bender kernal for my flash.I know that the pbk would run in another thread.But when I run my swf, the GPU usage shows 0%.I want to know does the Pixel Bender with Flash would use the GPU.

I have a simple character rigging system that I'm working on and I'm running into a bit of a snag. I am trying out the system with a new character animation which has more subtle movements which flash appears to be using pixel snapping on. The result is that, since the eyes, nose, and mouth are all separate pieces and children of the head, their pixel positions are all being snapped a little differently and it looks like the pieces are just floating around on the face.
More background: The assets are SWF files loaded in at run time, they are not cached as bitmap, the issues only appear with small movements that make single pixel differences noticeable, the same animation loaded in as one swf and not rigged looks fine, but this is likely because that swf's x and y position is not changing, just the assets in it. It seems to me like flash is treating the loaded in facial assets as bitmaps with pixel snapping turned on.
I have written this code that tranisitions through 3 pictures using the pixel dissolve properties for AS3. I am trying to create a loop so the the transitions will loop infinately through the pictures. This is the code I have written. I was thinking about possibly adding my pictures to an array and writing a for loop, but im kind of new to AS and am not too sure how to go about it.
I'm doing a flashlight in pixel bender and works great. I pass, as parameters, the center of the flashlight.Now, I want to have more than one flashlights (n value).I don't think so I can use Arrays in Pixel Bender, so I thought about ByteArrays but I don't know how to use it in Pixel Bender.
I recently started using FF_Hero on a project but I noticed that the bottom 3 pixels are not displaying effecting g,y,q. It has nothing to do with the text box size. Non pixel fonts work fine...is there a work around?
