Flash :: DisplayObject Snapshot In Flex 3?
Jul 9, 2009
i'm creating a visual editor in flex and need to let users export thier projects into Image format. But i have one problem: size of the canvas is fixed and when user add element which is out of these sizes some scroll bars added. And user continue working on the project. but when he want to take snapshot of the canvas he just get the visible part ot the canvas with scrollbars. how to get image of the fullsize canvas?
The only solution i found is to check the positions and sizes of canvas child objects and rezise it to fit them. then take snap and resize back. But it hmmmm... too complicated i think. Is there some "easy methods"?

I would like to be able to quickly check if a given DisplayObject is a descendant (not in the inheritance sense - ie. child, grandchild, great-grandchild, great-great-grandchild, etc.) of another DisplayObject. There doesn't seem to be a native way to do this and I can only think of two ways to achieve it: Create the mother of all nested loops. Seems a bit, I dunno, wrong? Dispatch a bubbling event at the 'child' and check if the potential 'parent' receives it.

var is:ImageSnapshot = myImagesnapshot;
var str:String = ImageSnapshot.encodeImageAsBase64(is);
As of now, I am sending my jpeg data to the server with the code above. The problem is that it almost doubles the size of the data. Is there a way to send the image data directly without using any encoding.

I'm trying to capture the redraw event for some MovieClip / Sprite objects that are in a Scroll area.Ideally, should be able to capture the event when Flash Player itself redraws the objects as can be seen with "Show Redraw Regions" in FP Debug.I've tried to use the Event.RENDER to capture this, but it even fires when the object is not visible / redrawn.

In my application a canvas object has height = 90 px & width = 86400 px (indicating number of seconds in a day [60 * 60 * 24] ). The canvas is scrollable and the user can add or delete components in that.Now, I want to have snapshot of the whole canvas & shrink it to size 910x30 to draw taken snapshot in another canvas.Can anybody tell me how to take snapshot of such large Component?I have tried to take snapshot in BitmapData object but as it max width is 2880 can not give whole canvas snapshot.

I'm trying to scale text from 1 to 5, a sort of zoom in type of look. I'm using the code below:
<s:Scale target="myLabel" autoCenterTransform="true"
duration="2000"
scaleYFrom="1" scaleYTo="5" scaleXFrom="1" scaleXTo="5"
>
The text scales terribly. So my goal is to take a snapshot of the text label at a large font, add it to the display list, set the scale to a 5th and then animate the scale up to 1. After that I have to set the text again and do it all over again.
This is a Flex app and that's where my question comes in. I don't know how to take a snapshot, then what to add it to (group?) and then how to erase it and start over again?

var snapshot:ImageSnapshot = ImageSnapshot.captureImage(someSprite);
var file:FileReference = new FileReference();
file.save(snapshot.data,'abc.png');
n the above code I am able to capture an image.But I also want to apply a scalingMatrix(for zoomIn/Out) and a clipping rectangle to it. How to do it? I tried capturebitmapdata too, but with that I can't even get a proper image. See here. So I don't want to use that.

I have a video display in my flex app. which is attached to the camera. The camera resolution can vary depending on the user's selection, While the video display (preview) dimensions are fixed. I am then doing this:
bmd.draw(vidDisplay);
Where bmd is the bitmap.. The problem is the resulting bitmap has the correct size of the camera settings (which is set) but the capture from the video is always the size of the video display inside the bitmap.. I hope i am making sense. The result looks like a little picture inside a bigger image top left justified. I want to have a video display preview with fixed height, but be able to take snapshot with varying resolution.

I am in search of a "simple" way to implement the generation of a JPG from a Flash SWF housed within an HTML page. DETAILS: Once a visitor has assembled draggable objects within the SWF, and to their liking, I would like for them to have the ability to click a button that would render a JPG version of their layout. Hope this makes sense. I have found source codes online, in conjunction with PHP scripting, but am struggling to make this work.

I'm attempting to take an image from a networked camera and store it as a bitmap. I discovered that flash didn't support MJPEG so I found a class someone had written that could talk to the camera and output on the screen. Then I edited it so that I could request the current image at any time and store it in a ByteArray.I've managed to load that ByteArray with a loader class and place it on the stage, but I'm not sure how to save that as a Bitmap?

I've set up Red5 on one of my servers. I've created a "caster" flash app and a "viewer" flash app. Basically this is a "one-to-many" webcam streaming application.Everything is working fine. Users can fire up their webcam and connect to the server and broadcast. Viewers can connect to the streams with the "viewer" app just fine.What I'm trying to implement now, are snapshot and record buttons on the viewer side. Right now I am just focusing on snapshots.I've found lots of examples/tutorials on how to take a snapshot using your own webcam. However, when I try to implement these on the "viewer" side, it doesn't work. When I try to search for code examples on how to capture streaming data, everything that comes up is software for sale.[code]If I use this code in the "caster" app, it works just fine. But on the viewer side it fails. Through trial and error I've determined that the line that is failing is:[code]

I am trying to take a snapshot of an entire movieclip. Here is the function I am using:
[Code]...
When I pass it through the function I only get the bottom-right portion of the image. It has a centered registration point. I've tried all registration points too and the top-left (0,0) works but my project is already based around objects having a low-mid registration point: Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I just want a snapshot of the full movieclip instead of the bottom-right portion regardless of the registration point. edit: No, I'm not here to sell watermelons

I have this flash player we use to create some graphs and charts of our business performance. We use flash because we like those neat-o graphics and overall User experience.The thing is that now I need to generate snapshots (i.e. images) of those charts every Monday so I can save them to disk.Our flash player takes arguments at startup (or runtime) that specify the data we want to load and the date range, and we have LOTS of charts around.
I would like to know if there is any way to create these images in a batch, window-less process in linux. My goal would be to have a script that runs at 2am, automatically loads all the graphs say for the latest week, and creating PNG images for each. All this in one of our window-less (but with X11 libraries) linux boxes.

I have made a flash webcam application to allow the user to take a photo of themselves using a webcam. I have successfully saved the photo in my localhost. However, I would like to set the names of those photos. Currently, the photos names are generated by
$uniqueStamp = date('U');
I also have a textfield in my flash app that allows inputs from user for the photo name. For example if the user write 'MYPHOTONAME' in the textfield, the photo which will be saved in my localhost will be named 'MYPHOTONAME' too. How do I do it in Flash and in PHP? Currently I'm having some problems because I cannot send the textfield string to PHP.
Here is my flash code to send the snapshot to PHP and let the PHP save it in my localhost:
imgBA = jpgEncoder.encode(imgBD1);
sendReq.data = imgBA;
sendLoader.load(sendReq);
[Code]....
As you can see, I tried to pass in $photo = $_POST['photo']; from flash to PHP however I do not know the exact code, can anyone help me?

I am getting really frustrated with this. I have tried a lot of things to get this to work but I CANNOT seem to get the tx and ty values to work properly with every frame. It works great for some frames, then all of the sudden it will cut off a portion of the front of another frame.
Is there any way to ensure that it will never happen again to any frame for any object? Like making the bitmap data larger than the actual sprite or something to create a little bit of padding for insurance?
Looking at how I handled the height, I still have no idea WHY I needed the +3 (because it was truncating 3pixels every time) but it works. But now I am trying to get the width to work properly and I CANNOT find anything that helps. If you can help, PLEASE DO!

I have camera input app in flash (AS3) and I draw some graphics over it. I want to take the image snapshot of the stage visible area but only the video an graphics I draw over video. I want to exclude controls from the image snapshot. My display object layout is in following relation:
-stage
--canvas (Sprite)
---video (Video)[code]..........
Stage size is fixed and I want to take a image snapshot of everything that is child of my canvas element (camera input video and overlayed graphics, but excluding controls). I am able to make this image snapshot when overlayed graphics are inside the bounds of stage size. I do it like this:
var bmpd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(canvas.width, canvas.height);
bmpd.draw(canvas, new Matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, canvas.x, canvas.y));
But this gives me unwanted result when graphics which I draw on top of video on canvas exceed the bounds of stage display area. How do I limit the image snapshot only in the bounds of visible area inside stage?

In regards to as3 project: Is there a way to inherit the properties of a given DisplayObject? I am looking for a single method that will grab something like the x, y, width, height, color, etc. Whatever is involved in the common classes between the two display objects.
Edit:
I don't think I was clear enough... Let me give an example of the type of functionality I am looking for.
var sp1:Sprite = new Sprite();
sp1.x = 30;
sp1.y = 30;
sp1.width = 500;
sp1.height = 30;
var tf1:TextField = new TextField();
tf1.inheritTransform(sp1);
So, in this case I know that the method 'inheritTransform()' doesn't exist, but I am wondering if there is something similar. Or maybe I am missing the point of extending a class in some way? I don't see how the two would relate in such a case.
