Actionscript 3 :: Flex - Placing Items On The Canvas Element?

Oct 11, 2009

I am writing simple game on flex. In the game there are 2 objects Board and Stone (both are extended from the Canvas super class)When I started to place Stones instances to the Board Canvas, I come across the problem, I can't understand how to set Stone on the defined position on the board.So if for example board (canvas) has following attributes: x = 25, y = 25, height = 100, width = 100How can I for example place a Stone (canvas) in a point 25, 25.

Flex :: Placing Images Into A Collage Canvas?

Apr 28, 2010

I've got an array of different sized images. I want to place these images on a canvas in a sort of automated collage.

All my images have heights divisible by 36 pixels and widths divisible by 9 pixels. They have mouseDown functions that allow you to drag and drop. When dropped the image goes to the closest x point divisible by 9 and y point divisble by 36. There is a grid drawn on top of the canvas.

I've sorted the array of images based on height, then based on their widths.

imagesArray.sortOn("height", Array.NUMERIC | Array.DESCENDING);
imagesArray.sortOn("width", Array.NUMERIC | Array.DESCENDING);

I'd like to take the largest image ( imageArray[0] ) to put in corner x,y = 0,0. Then randomize the rest of the images and fit them into the collage canvas.

Flex :: Drag And Drop (list Items To Canvas)

Jun 27, 2011

I just started using Flash Builder 4 (yesterday infact).

I have two lists and a canvas. When dropping a list item onto the canvas, i want to trace what item it is (the label and data) and which list it came from. From there, i want to add an image to the canvas according to the dropped item.

Here's my current code

private function componentDragEnterHandler(event:DragEvent):void {
DragManager.acceptDragDrop(Canvas(event.currentTarget));
DragManager.showFeedback( DragManager.COPY );

ActionScript 2.0 :: Placing Intro And Common Element Setup On Main Timeline?

Sep 14, 2006

I'm building an animation intensive website and I want to keep my code centralized on the first frame of the main timeline. Most of the intro animations (like building the sites common elements such as menu, header, etc...) have to be done on a timeline since they are pretty complex. Would you keep the main timeline with only one frame and attach the animations via actionscript, or would you place the intro animations on the main timeline, stretching it out?

I usually place the intro and common element setups all on the main timeline cause that gives me more control on linking animations together. For example: the intro plays, then the menu loads in, then some special effects popup, and then the home content is loaded in. But since some people advocate for single frame main timelines, I'm wondering if there is a better approach.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Placing Xml Menu Items Inside A Movie Clip

Jul 14, 2009

I have a basic XML menu that dynamically attaches the menuItem instances to the stage. They are being attached to the root timeline, but I want to put all of the actionscript inside a movieclip called "menu1_mc". I am having some trouble with the proper syntax, because when I move the code inside of the movieclip, I can't get them to attach to the stage unless I still reference _root. I'd like them to attach at (0,0) of the menu1_mc movieclip.

Flex :: Force The List To Load All The Items, Not Only The Visible Items?

Aug 15, 2010

I'm creating a facebook application in flex. I'm actually working on the friends component that shows your friends who are using the application. now, each friend has a profile image.

I created the component using a s:List element.

In the Skin Class of the element i configured the requestedColumnCount to 3, which means it shows 3 friends. i added buttons to scroll left and right in the list.

Whenever I scroll to see a different friend, for a half of a second i see no image because the List component is loading the image in order to view it.

is there a way to make the list preload all the elements so i won't have this kind of problem ?

Actionscript 3 :: Flex - Possible To Have Flex DataTips On Canvas Rather Than Chart Objects

Jan 17, 2010

Flex charts, like AreaChart, have wonderful built-in support for displaying data "tool tips" when a user hovers over a point supplied in the data of a graph. You can hover over any of the bar graph examples on this page for a demonstration. I have a graph situation where I optionally draw in some dots as reference points on CartesianDataCanvases supplied to my AreaChart through it's <mx:annotationElements> and <mx:backgroundElements> tags.

I would like to have the same hover data-tip functionality that the AreaChart has, but applied to these dots. I realize that I am just drawing on canvas, and that no actual dataProvider supports these dots, but if there was a way to supply the CartesianDataCanvas with an array of data values or something to that effect,

Flex4 :: Placing Flex-component In Middle Of Screen

Sep 6, 2011

When using BasicLayout (i.e. absolute positioning) - what is the best approach to place a Flex component in the center of the application?In the test case below I'm using x="{width/2}" but this gives me at least 2 problems:How do I account for the component dimensions (the ProgressBar in the test case)?Is the binding {width/2} a good idea to use? Wouldn't it send unnecessary DATA_CHANGE events in some cases?And finally I wonder, how this all applies to full screen applications using StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL - because currently my application is aligned to the top-left in the full screen mode and there is a white dead zone on the right of it. (Which is at least a change from pure Flash/AS3 behaviour, where the full screen content is displayed in the center of the screen and 2 dead zones on the left and right).[code]

Aligning The Canvas To The Right In Flex?

Dec 8, 2010

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:Canvas backgroundColor="#A8A8A8" height="100%" right="0" top="0" width="100">
</mx:Canvas>

[Code]...

My code above works absolutely fine, until i resize my browser window to a size below 800px width. When the browser window is make of lesser width than 800px, the canvas with background color #A8A8A8 is on the right of the window, but the problem is, when I move the scroll bar, the canvas should remain on the right of the window. Which does not happen, and that is what my problem is.

How can I solve this issue. What should I do to keep my canvas be on the right=0 all the time.

ActionScript 3.0 :: "mouse Off Canvas" - Go To Frame2 When The Cursor Leaves The Canvas

Feb 24, 2011

Basically I want to go to frame2 when the cursor leaves the canvas. The code below contains no errors when tested but it still does not work.

[Code]...

We know that the function gotoAndStop(frame2); works in multiple situations which means the first 3 line is fine. I don't know if the problem is the MOUSE_LEAVE event or this.stage which i suppose is the identifier for the canvas. I sure that there must be an alternative code for the identifier this.stage or the whole code. Any solution on how to fire the given function in the event when the cursor leaves the canvas?

Flex :: Canvas - 3 - Custom Tab Navigator

Aug 4, 2010

I'm trying to create a custom tab navigator that has to look like. Also, when there's a rollover, the borders of the arrow have to be in blue (like the label in the current tab). For that purpose, I've created a custom component: a hbox containing a label and a canvas with 3 images inside (for the arrow tip that has to change depending on the currentState). Then, I thought of overlapping the components in order to get the blue highlight color (ex: arrow button 3 is over arrow button 4. The image of the arrow tip in button 3 will be transparent outside the arrow, so that we can see the black color of the following button).

I'm now trying to position the components inside the canvas ... but I cannot. After the creationComplete event, I assign the label text and I was calculating the coordonates of the component but it doesn't take into account the label width... -_-'
