Flash :: Copy Channel (BitmapData Class) - Eraser Tool

May 3, 2011

I am developing an application similar to MS Paint. I am building a Flash Paint application. The basic structure is this. I have two layers namely topLayer_mc and bottomLayer_mc. The actual vector drawing is drawn on the top layer and onmouseUp of the tool, a bitmap copy of the vector graphics on the top layer is taken and added as a bitmap to the bottom layer. The top layer is cleared subsequently. It is working for the pencil tool.

Now I need to create an eraser tool. This is where things get tricky. In the application there is an option to save the image as png, so alpha has top be preserved. So the coventional method of draw a brush using the vector and using the draw method of bitmap will not work. Of course, on a visual level it would work if the brush drawn using the vector is to have the same color as that of the background. The eraser's are rectangular in shape.

The technique I am tring to use is to use the copyChannel method of BitmapData class. Specify a channels (say GREEN channel )hex value as 00 and make it as the source. Then make the destination channel ALPHA. I got it working without using movieclips as shown below.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Make A Custom Eraser Tool Using Flash?

Sep 26, 2010

I did make a eraser tool. But once I begin to erase a layer, the background layer is visible. I want the layer just below the topmost layer to be visible.
 
For eg consider 2 layers. Layer2 is above Layer1. When I perform erase on Layer2, I see the stage background. I want to actually see Layer1 when I erase from Layer2.
 
Here is the code I used: The comment entry shows that, I have tried that possiblity.
 
import flash.display.BitmapData; 
var linkageId:String = "myimage";
var myBitmapData:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap(linkageId);

Professional :: Stuck On Eraser Tool

Mar 13, 2010

Mac OS 10.4.11; Flash CS3.I cannot change the tool any more. It's stuck on the eraser. It doesn't erase anything, but I can't change it to another tool.I uninstalled Flash, preferences and all, and re-installed it, but the problem persists. Interesting is, my customized workspace is still there, even though I had all preferences and anything else that has the name "Flash" deleted.At the same time the computer opens both CD trays when booting up. Never did that before. So I re-installed the OS, but that didn't help either.

Professional :: Eraser Tool Erase Stuff On All Layers?

Feb 15, 2010

In the previous version, the eraser tool only erase things on the single current active layer, but then in CS4 (maybe it's just my problem), the eraser tool simply erase everything on the stage, no matter which layer they are in, except in locked layer.
 
Is it a bug for cs4 or hv I set something wrong or what?

I have a BitmapData object with an alpha channel. I'd like to know the fastet way to offset that alpha channel in ActionScript3 (FlashPlayer10). By offsetting I mean shifting all pixels of that channel in one direction (wrapping around the image borders) while leaving the color channels as they were.Is there a good way to apply a such a transform to one channel only?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Invert Colors/channel Of A BitmapData Object?

Aug 1, 2007

reason is i'm copying this grayscale Perlinnoise smoke image and makig it such that the darker the color, the more transparent it is. (I'musingcopyChannel.RED/GREEN/BLUE->CopyChannel.ALPHA). But right now, it's the other way round at the moment (ie. the brighter the pixel, the more opaque it is.). I want it to be more transparent instead (inversely proportional), so if i could find simple & fast way invert the alpha channel, it would do me so much more good. (I need a fast method...performance is critical!)

Flash :: Use A New MovieClip As A Class Or To Copy It Without Reference To Its Class?

Jul 21, 2011

I am doing a looping background with 2 identical BG movieClip (B1 and B2). Those 2 are "new" by the same class.

var B1:MovieClip = new BG();
var B2:MovieClip = new BG();

But because this BG class picture is loader from the internet and the picture is rather big. When I addressed its loading by using progressEvent. The picture is really loaded 2 times. Is there anyway I create B2 based on B1 without using new BG() again? Since it definitely makes a new BG with Loader code inside.

Actionscript 3 :: BitmapData Copy Pixels Half Pixel?

Feb 17, 2012

Having trouble trying to scroll BitmapData on a half pixel here is my original code

var speed:Number = 1;
_bitmapData.copyPixels(_backgroundParallax, _screenRect, _zeroPoint, null, null, true);
_backgroundParallax.copyPixels(_backgroundParallax, new Rectangle(0, 0, speed, _backgroundParallax.height), new Point(_backgroundParallax.width-speed,0), null, null, false);
_backgroundParallax.scroll( (speed*-1) , 0);

which works until i change the var speed to .5, which is because .scroll method is expecting int's so i replicated what scroll is doing to try and allow .5 pixels

Php :: Flash HTTP Requests URL Containing RTMPE URL - Get A Local Copy Or A Copy With Content?

Oct 7, 2011

A web channel streaming service streams to a certain IP range, it only checks the IP in example.com/cmd.php?id=xxx (channel number) and outputs an rtmpe stream URL, nothing else.How do I trick it to get my local URL instead of the one on their server? I have considered squid proxy, but is there some way to do it with a firefox plugin or greasemonkey script?

Edit:I will try to specify:It's a streaming service from an ISP and cable provider. They stream for free to people on their IP's. On their webtv page, which is called webtv.example.com, there is a flash player. If you are not on an IP from their ISP, you can't stream anything but the test channel.When you try to change channel via. javescript:videoplayer_changechannel(xxx) it makes this HTTP request:

[URL]

If you are on one of their IP's you will get an RTMP URL, like this:

[URL]

This is what the flash player requests, and if it get's this response it load the channel requested. There is no HTML on the php page, just the URL. Note that the rtmp URL is static.If you are not on one of their IP's it will return a random sentence (something stupid, the programmers having fun).I wan't to trick the flash player into getting the right value, even though it's not on one of the ISP's IP's.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Error #2015: Invalid BitmapData At Flash.display::BitmapData()

I am trying to use the reflect class from "http://pixelfumes.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflection-class-v3-with-source .html" but I keep getting this error:

btw, first I used assigned thumbContainer as the mc argument (outside the loadThumbs() function) and it worked but not exactly what I wanted... because I thought it is supposed to update when the movieclip is animated but it actually didn't... when I use a scroller, only the thumbs that are first loaded to the stage get the reflection..

Actionscript 3 :: Getting BitmapData From Embedded Class?

May 3, 2011

[ Embed('Assests/ui/Main.swf', symbol='backgroundImage')]
private var background01:Class;
private function getBitmapData(className:String):BitmapData[code]....

I want to return bitmapData from a symbol that is embedded in a flash swf file. background01 is the class name exported to as3 in the flash swf file. As you can see from above I'm finding the swf with no problem. and I'm pullin the data back from the swf file with no prob. I can type addChild(new background01) and the image will show up. But when I've tried to cast to a bitmap , bitmapasset and movieclip. It always returns null. I want to get access to the bitmapdata of this image/movieclip. It should be returning a vertex circle drawn in flash and created to be a movieclip symbol. So what I would expect to be returned would be a MovieClip.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Renderer Class That Contains Another Bitmapdata?

Mar 6, 2012

I am using BitmapData to draw the objects in my game. But, I'm not sure I am using this in the best way.In each class I have a draw method where I call a renderer where copy the pixels of my object to the game canvas.For example, I have an Avatar class and its contains a BitmapData instance. There is a method where I draw my character into the bitmapdata of this class and I apply the filters or visual modification I need frame by frame. When I finish this process I copy the result to the main canvas. It is in a renderer class that contains another bitmapdata.I believe this is not the best way to render the objects of a game.
