Theoretically it should be possible to combine transformation or color matrices, through addition or multiplication (I'm lame when it comes to such math). Is it possible?
View 1 RepliesI have figured out how to have 3 different color transformations apply to an MC called myPic. I am trying to figure out how to reverse those changes on rollOut. This is what I have so far. Do I need to use delete this.onEnterFrame? I tried but got errors.
Code:
chip1_mc.onRollOver = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
myColor = new Color(myPic);
myColorTransform = new Object();

I'm trying to understand molehill and would like to multiple a vertex by two matrices, say:
output = theVertex * scaleMatrix * rotationMatrix
Im guessing my vertex shader would look something like:
"m44 vt0, va0, vc0
" +
"mul op, vt0, vc1
";
And i would set the matrices with
context3d.setProgramConstantsFromMatrix(Context3DProgramType.VERTEX, 0, scaleMatrix);
context3d.setProgramConstantsFromMatrix(Context3DProgramType.VERTEX, 1, rotationMatrix);
But its not working.Im aware that i could multiple the matrix before putting on the shader, but i am trying to understand AGAL.
I have some problems with doing Matrix transformations on a MovieClip with a Textfield. As soon as I make a matrix transformation the textfield of the movieclip disappears. And I can not get it back.
View 1 RepliesI have a sprite with some objects in it which are transformed in 3D (positioned and rotated). The objects form a coneshape in such a way that the objects that make up the back are hidden.When I use that sprite as a source for the bitmapData.draw() it is drawn from another viewpoint so it seems. In my case the copy is viewed slightly from the bottom and right.
Bottomline:Does anyone know of a way to duplicate the image of a sprite which contains 3D manipulated graphics?
I have transformation matrix properties (a,b,c,d). How to calculate scaleX, scaleY, scewX, scewY and rotation angle from those values?
When only one type of transformation is applied, I can figure out that:
scaleX = a
scaleY = d
scewX = c
scewY = b
rotation = arccos(a) or -arcsin(c)
But when multiple transformations are applied at once I don't know how to calculate those values.
I need to do this outside of flash so I can't use any flash helper methods.
I've been messing around a bit with some low-level bitmap manipulation and having been creating some various color matrices to apply to bitmap data to add "filters" (for lack of a better term).I have seen a number of tutorials online in C# and AS3 about applying various color matrices to bitmaps, but was curious if anyone simply had a collection of these color matrices that map to specific filter styles (black and white, sepia, etc.).
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble with some code, I am trying to get a circle to rotate around a center point, as well as rotate in a circle. at the same speed as its parent circle. however I am having some trouble, and I know it is from how I am transforming the position of its matrix, however I honestly can not find the mistake. below is the code:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
var outcirc: Sprite= new Sprite();
[Code].....
I am using Corey Oneil's collision detection kit, but I am having a problem with rotation. In my code I have:
myItem.rotationY = 180;
However, during a collision detection, having it rotated like this causes an error with this line:
transMatrix1.concat(currentObj.parent.transform.ma trix);
The error is simply "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."
I have not really worked with matrices and rotation. Do I need to make a matrix rather than just doing the rotationY or should I change something else? I cannot manually change the movie clip because it throws off the animation and armatures.

View 1 RepliesI have a number of display objects drawing to the stage, including bitmaps, graphics/shapes, and text. What I want to do is put a layer on top of this that "grabs" or copies the image resulting from all the rendered objects below it.That is, I want to get a bitmap object that contains an image of the all the rendered objects beneath it in the display list. Consider it as taking a screen grab of the stage.The ultimate goal is to be able to then apply transformations on this bitmap, giving the appearance of transforming all the objects that draw under it.Is there a way to get such a bitmap? Or if not, is there a way to apply an image transformation (e.g. rotation, etc.) to the stage after a bunch of objects are drawn onto it?
View 4 RepliesI've started getting to grips with using the BitmapData class and a Transformation Matrix in the hope that I can start making some interesting image effects. However, at the moment Im having trouble figuring out how to shift the newly created bitmap so that any scale transformations are applied from the center rather than the top left corner. See here for example: [URL] The flower on the left is the original, the flower on the right is the new image created using "bitmapData.draw()". It has been scaled up to twice the size, but I want this to happen from the center of the image.

I've mostly seen examples where a Matrix3D object is passed as a vertex constant register in AS3 to the Context3D object. But never seen a matrix in any other types of registers (temporary or attribute).Would there be any way to copy a Matrix vertex constant to a temporary register, and then manipulate individual fields of that Matrix temporary register (ex:for the rotation), with other supplied values (vertex attributes or other constants)
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to figure out if this is possible to execute on a dynamic page.http:[url].....Basically, after all the page has been rendered, Flash needs to take the rendered page and apply 3D transformations to it, and at the end, restore the original rendered page.
View 1 RepliesWhenever I link a set of movieclips together with the bone tool which are inside a containing movieclip, and also set the type to "runtime" instead of "authortime", I get this error when published.
"Runtime symbols with skewed matrices should be wrapped in a movie clip" What does it mean? I need the type to be set to runtime so I can use scripting with it..
I created 2 separate swf files. One is a slideshow and the other is an interactive tool. I have have also converted these two files into a flash projector so as not to worry about plug ins that customer may or maynot have.I have another file right now which is the menu flash file that has buttons pointing it to the flash projector individual files. Since these are exe files, once the customer clicks on it, it will warn that it is potentially harmful and they have to click "run" in order for it to show.

We are trying to build a game in flash with AS3 (Im no pro with this)I've got 7 Movieclips and 7 Buttons.none of the 7 Movieclips should be on stage, they only appear when you've clicked 3 of the 7 buttons. once these 3 are clicked 1 of the 7 Movieclips should appear.Now I've got the code to make 3 selections and make it show 1 movieclip.and I've gotten the code to make a random movieclip appear.My question: How do I combine these two to make them do what's supposed to for the game.[code]
