Actionscript 3 :: Retrieving Index Of Specific Filter?
Sep 24, 2010
i have a few filters on a sprite. on mouse over i would like to access one of the filters in the filters array, but i'm having a bit of trouble trying to accomplish this.
To achieve a zoom effect in our 2D flash game, we make the background of the game much bigger than the visible stage. This becomes a problem when the background is complex or when we apply a grayscale filter to the background. Is there a better way to do zoom? Or, is there a way to apply the filter to only a specific area of a movieclip?
I am curious if this is an okay implementation of the Array.filter() method.
[Code]...
I was not able to figure out an implementation of the callback function for the filter() method, where the callback was outside of the getGallery() function. I wonder if there is a way to get the isGallery function outside of the getGallery scope?
Does anyone know a way, to return the length, preferably in pixels, of a specific line in a multiline textfield. In this case, I need to know the length of the last line.
I'm generating an integer elsewhere in my code which I want to use to lookup the appropriate index in my_array.However, the number I'm passing to the [] access operator could be positive or negative, and it could be more or less than my_array.lengthFor Example:
But that really just gives me back the original XML (since I'm asking for the root where those conditions are met I get the root). I understand why my approach doesn't work, but I don't know where to go from here./grandParent
Is there any way of applying a ColorMatrixFilter to one rectangular area of a DisplayObject, leaving the rest untouched? The DO is a container, and the user interacts with objects in it, so taking snapshots to change its appearance isn't an option.
I'm trying to get an absolutely positioned DIV to display in front of a Flash object; I can get this to work in every browser except Chrome.There are a couple of similar questions on here, but nothing pertaining to a problem with Chrome specifically. I've tried several of the suggested solutions, such as setting the 'wmode' param to 'transparent', and setting z-indexes for both the flash object and the div, but nothing seems to work.URL...There is some green text: "Click here to begin", which should appear in front of the Street View panorama. In Chrome, you can see that the DIV appears in the correct position, but is then obliterated by the Flash object.
I'm looking for an efficient way to filter a specific color from a bitmapData object in ActionScript 3. Currently I use a loop with readByte32(). This takes about a second to process which is unacceptable. I have been trying to get paletteMap() to work but so far haven't been able to grasp its API (any truly useful links? Google has failed me...). Here's my current logic, which I want to improve:
I need to insert string in another string in specific index. var str1:String = "A"; var str2:String = "LoremIpsum"; I need str2 to be "LoremAIpsum", insert str1 in index 5 in str2.
I would like to edit a cell by the row and column indexes so essentially do the following:
advDataGrid[2][3] = "Dogs"
so that I am setting the data grid row 2 and column 3 to Dogs. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this!
Side note: I need this because I am trying to allow the user to copy a section of an excel file to a section of an AdvancedDataGrid like Google Docs does. I am using this idea to do it: [URL]
I have a textBox and I am using it as a mail address input field where the user can type in several addresses, a bit same as in hotmail. Each address is rendered into a clickable button. Thus upon double-clicking on a specific address I want the item to be editable. After having edited the address when the user taps enter, the item is added to the list of mail adds.I am adding it using the code below:
flowBox.addChildAt( myItem, myindex);
However addChildAt seems to add the item as the last item in the list. But I want it to add the item the position where it was originally. Say the item was at position 2 in the mail list, after editing adn tapping enter, it should add at position 2 itself and not at the end of the list.

I have a advanced datagrid and populating some data by using arraycollection. And i am filtering the arraycollection, the arraycollection index got changed.
awhile back I completed the load random swf tutorial provided here on kirupa. But now I want to load specific swf files when the screen is refreshed or when someone clicks on the home or index. here is the code, can anyone point me in the right direction?
I looked at the following example in the AS3 Reference: [URL] It is unclear to me looking at the package example how to apply this in standard ActionScript 3 without packages to a Movie Clip resident in my Library that gets called at RunTime. how I would push the DropShadow filter onto my Movie Clip at RunTime?
What I want is a hint how to make a specific thing happen while clicking a specific button. Like "if I click button 1, do this". Would like to use this script though I'm gonna add buttons over time and this is an easy way to have the functionality working.
Here's the code:
Attach Code
function hitButton(btn) { btn.onRollOver = function() { this.colorTo (0xC4006A);
i need to change the colour of a graphic in a specific movie in a specific frame. if i have a movie clip instance-named "sidetext" thats 15 frames long, and i want a graphic in the movie, called "letterp" to change to one of four colours that i want it to randomly at frame 10 and stay that colour uintil frame 15, how can i do this?
how do i export specific frames not all frame. ex: if flash has 1 to 200 frames. here i want to export 51 to 150 frames as a movie. if there is any command or plugin to export movie like this.
so i need to make a flash that will do the next things.if user press button "x" on the next frame should display "x" text from a xml.if user press button "y" on the next frame should display "y" text from a xml.
I have been doing really well figuring everything out up until now.[code]How it stands, what is this link pointing to? Can I make it target a specific frame in a specific movie clip?And if someone would be so kind and explain what this is saying in 3rd grader terms.
Basically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:
Code: //About Us Button function test2(evt:Event):void{
