I have a bitmap with many colors inside it. I want each color, when clicked, to preform a different method. How do I determine the pixel's color value and use it for a mouse event? I found bitmap hit detection but I cannot figure out how to use it (because I have many colors inside the bitmap).
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to move the mouse and check how many pixels I "walked" by comparing the positions every frame, my idea was doing it with arrays, but I really don't know how to make it.

"if the mouse goes from the left to right (visa-versa) once, add score +1" and "if the mouse speed which is player controlled - slows down - to then display an error graphic"
how I can check an area of a scene for the presence of pixels of a specific colour.
View 1 RepliesI'm looking for a way to get all of the black pixels from an image that I load in. This is in order to make all of those black pixels transparent.
View 4 RepliesIn another scripting language I have used for other purposes (AutoIt Script) there was a function called pixelSearch where you could find pixel locations based on a color. What I would like to do is develop a SWF that "reads" the colors of an image and applies a sparkle effect to the areas that are deemed bright enough (close enough to #ffffff). Ultimately, it would be really cool if I could make it figure out how large the bright area was to make a larger sparkle effect (increase size of sparkle MC) or that if it was too bright, it would assume it was background and not use the effect in that location.
This effect would be used to load various thumbnails from a database and render them in the browser, each with the same SWF but different image parameters, to make the images sparkle appropriately.
I need to create, from a given Bitmap/BitmapData of a PNG file which has transparent and semitransparent pixels, another BitmapData which is a copy of it, but all the pixels (well, the pixels that are not alpha 0% actually) must have a specified grey color value (0xdddddd).
View 2 RepliesI am using ColorMatixFilter on an Image in Flex. I am really close to getting want I need out of the filter.Basically any PNG file the user uploads I want all pixels that are not transparent to be colored black. I have a function that sets the "brightness" already so I just through a really large negative number at it like -1000 and it does the job but the problem is any pixels that have any alpha to them, say 0.9 or below all end up being white when I encode my PNG file on the server later.

I would like all pixels to be solid black unless the pixel is completely transparent and not sure how to tweak the values to get that out of it.
I have a map (map of a mall, top view) with some colors. I´m removing the part for walking of the map, which has a type of color (say 0xcccccc).
I got all the 0xcccccc color pixels removed (setted to another color), but it seems to remain a bit of gray at the walking part.
The color of that bit it´s close to 0xcccccc. It looks like flash not succeeded while removing the walking part. But instead, leaved some parts (like borders or something) on the bitmapdata.
I´ve tried to remove by script, by picking the colors remained on the bitmap, but the loop doesn´t find these colors.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to do an animation, where a movieclip will orbit around the mouse if the mouse is within 50 pixels of the movieclip. Basically, the mouse will get near an object and the object will orbit the mouse, even if the mouse moves. The idea is that here will be a number of these objects on the stage, and as the mouse 'collects' these objects, each one will orbit around the last one 'collected'.
Here's what i have so far-
Code:
package{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;
public class soundObject extends MovieClip{
[Code] .....
It kind of orbits, but it's not working very well. Also, my conditional statement doesn't work.
I'm working on a school project that will work so that a webcam can scan a grid of colors and determine what color it is and there by playing a sound that is connected to that color. You can then create music by drawing different colors on a grid.
So I managed to import the webcam image to flash, and that's all. How do I Proceed?
* How do I get the webcam to detect colors? (Green, Blue, Red, Yellow and Black)
* How do I connect these color detections to start playing a sound/movieclip?
This is the code id used to import the webcam.
Code:
import flash.media.Camera;
import flash.media.Video;
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
if (camera != null) {
video.attachCamera(camera);
} else {
trace("You need a camera.");
}
I'd like to draw a line from pointA to the mouse position and trace along that line and return the x,y position every 5 pixels.
View 2 Replies1- i have a circular menu, with a zoom effect when you hover on it, with the home button in the center, when you click the home button you load the page then reload the scene 1 ( menu idle ).If i put nothing on the button itself on the scene 1, before the zoom effect, i need to move out of the button to trigger the other scritp there that detect the rollover and start the zoom in.i want to have a special behavior for the home button on the idle state of the menu ( scene 1 ) , When you click the home button from anywhere else, you load back the page, then because the mouse is already on the home button, i want flash to do nothing, but at the second you start to move the mouse again ( remember you are still on the home button) i want it to start teh zoom effect again, not before.
Right now, it is either no zoom effect as soon the mouse is on top of it, or imediatly zoom in with the rollover....And i know it is possible with a very simple command, but i forgot it... i did it before.2- for the same menu, i will have a sub-menu unfolding when you click a certain button, that sub-menu is outside the main menu detection zone. Is it possible to make a shape, turn the alpha at 0, put it under the sub-menu, and use it as detection zone

View 13 RepliesI have movieclip working as button. On mouserollover it scales up a square MC. The problem is that this square will cover other buttons when completely scaled up, and the buttons below that won't "work"When going with mouse from button 1 to 3 it works ok, but from 3 to 1 one then the "top-stacked" button will prevent lower buttons from working properly.As you can see I tried
sq.mouseEnabled = false;
sq.mouseChildren = false;
how to detect the distance of the mouse movement in a certain time. I d like to be able to calculate the distance the mouse was moved from one point to another in certain time (one second) and compare these values.
View 2 Replieswhen you have two movieclips and the bounding box of one movieclip is over top of the movieclip below, how do you detect that the mouse is over the bottom movieclip, and ignore the alpha of the upper movieclip.I tried mouseEnabled = true, I tried mouseChildren = true...I can't seem to make the movieclip that is underneath of the bounding box of the upper clip respond to the mouse.
here's a method I put together to tell me what is underneath of the mouse.When I run this, the movieclip on top has its bounding box overlaying another movieclip...the bounding box meaning, and the transparent area of the top movieclips bounding box.This method returns both images when I'm over the bounding box of the top movieclip, yet I'm only over the lower movieclips actual image shape.
I just want to be able to drag that lower movieclip, and write a function that only returns that lower movieclip under it if I'm only on top of the lower movieclip.
var previousOUM:String = "";
function listObjectsUnderMouse(event:Event):void
{
var pointoint = new Point(mouseX, mouseY);
[code]....
so instead of the pixels being dissolved, the pixels being added? :
ActionScript Code:
var Anim:TransitionManager = new TransitionManager(blackbox);
Anim.startTransition({type:PixelDissolve, direction:Transition.OUT, duration:1, easing:None.easeOut, xSections:35, ySections:35});
basically what i would like is the end point to be the start point and the start point the end point.
I have a swf file that loads into my main movie, and within that swf there is a masked image that i would like to scale using zoom in and out buttons and also by using a slider bar.However i cant find any tutorials that will allow me to combine the two.I have used the following code for the buttons. Which seems to work ok but i would like it to be a little smoother. (using speed or some sort of easing??)
ActionScript Code:
zoomPlus.onRelease = function(zoomIn) {
if (test_shirt.shirt._xscale == 400 && test_shirt.shirt._yscale == 400) {[code]....
but for this code it keeps shrinking my initial object down to 10 pixels by 10 pixels..
I have a movie clip called column1_mc. when I click a button I need to move the movie clip in incremental moves consisting of 30 pixels.
column1_mc._y = 30;
Does not work because that is giving a _y coordinate.For example.I need to make the movie clip jump to _y 300 but make 10x30 pixel incremental jumps. Moving 10 times 30 pixel jumps.
I have a movieClip over which I want to apply color effects such as making it flash white or in any other color.I can actually do this by duplicating that movieclip and use that duplicate as a mask...But, considering that movieClip is animated through code and is kinda complex, it somehow doesn't feel very optimized.I was wondering if there was a way to tell actionscript to "draw the color only over the pixels that constitute the rendered shape", rather than creating a complete duplicate.

View 1 RepliesI have a boat which will follow my mouse, which I have got working via the tutorial situated at: [URL]
That's easy enough.
My problem is not making the boat stop if it collides with another movie. You can view what I currently have here:
[URL]
If you look at this movie you will see the boat following your mouse, and I've inserted a basic island on to the stage. What I want to happen is that if the boat touches the island, it stops. so for example if you were moving your mouse right to left across the island, the boat would stop on the right hand side of the island, but if you moved your mouse back to the right, it would move away from the island and follow your mouse.
I'm not too bothered about it detecting certain areas of the boat, the center point is fine.
If I create the object with AS, how can I attach the classic on(over) etc... to the object I'm creating?Do I have to extend MovieClip or something like that?
my class is
Code:
class menuBar{

draw(mc, Math.round(Stage.height*15/100), Stage.width, 0, Stage.height-Math.round(Stage.height*15/100));

I have an application where I need to detect if the mouse is less than 200 px from the left sie of the screen, then play an animation... Once the mouse is moved back out of the 200 px area I want the animation to reverse.I'm using the Tween Class for animation and have been messing around with onclipevents with no luck like:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if(_xmouse <= 200)
{
_root.theSwitch = "on";
[code]....
This will obviously produce a million "on" traces when the mouse is over there - what is the best method for detecting the change once, setting a variable, then playing the animation?
I have an image gallery thats a group of links that plays on a timeline. It scrolls and repeats, giving a smooth continuity. I've set up and ENTER_FRAME event to a listener of the stage, a Boolean variable based on mouseY conditionals for true and false, and passed a true value to mouseX conditionals that controls the timeline with prevFrame() and nextFrame() methods.
All is fine in the original swf, but once I load it into my flash page those mouseX and mouseY values no longer represent the stage upon which the swf was originally created, that stage doesn't exist. Instead its new parents stage has spanned those parameters far across the page, even making it possible to control playback outside of the page itself. How can I either separate the swf's stage from its parent or re-establish the parameters I had originally set for it?
This is the code for both, First is the Flash Page, the SWF in question is highlighted,
Code:
var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("NewsandLinks.swf");
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
swfLoader.load(swfRequest);
