I have created a custom component - MyImage - that has two children including a Bitmap as well as a Sprite.My display object hierarchy is as follows -
mx:Canvas
view:MyImage
mx:Bitmap

Am working in flex 4 the sample mxml is

on the perpendicular clicks it shows as like the second click. does the scaleX scaleY affects the width height?
i want to know what is difference between width and scaleX or height and ScaleY ..? i search that in internet but i cudnt found good explanation
View 2 RepliesI have placed 3 movieclips named mcParent, mcChild1, mcChild2 and 1 textbox in flash. child are childrens of parent movie clip. child1 and child2 both are of sizes 300 whereas parent movieclip is 600px, textbox is placed inside child2 movie clip .
I have made the flash to auto resize according to the screen area. Everything works well, but after resize it resizes parent and all childrens and textbox which is correct. The problem is with the correct placement of textbox on mcChild2. I have seen that after resize, mcParent width and scalex both changes but the child clips doesn't changed its sizes even they are stretched but there sizes are not updated due to which I am unable to get the exact location of where to place the textbox.
I got a Parent Sprite, let's name it SpriteP, which holds inside it two other Sprites. Sprite1 and Sprite2.[code]Sprite2 is a rectangle. When I rotate it, of course, the height of its parent, SpriteP, GROWS. But I would expect that height to go back to what it should be when I'm removing Sprite2!And it does! If I remove Sprite2 while NOT being rotated, the height of the parent drops back to normal, 200.

When Sprite2 is NOT rotated:
Code:
trace(SpriteP.width + ' ' + SpriteP.height); //100 250.
SpriteP.removeChild(Sprite2)
trace(SpriteP.width + ' ' + SpriteP.height); //100 200. -> works, 200 is good.
When Sprite2 is rotated at 90:

And it does! If I remove Sprite2 while NOT being rotated, the height of the parent drops back to normal, 200. But if I rotate Sprite2, the Parent won't update its bounds.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a Japanese map where on mouse over prefectures (states) would zoom in by some 1.2. If I make every prefecture_mc as a separate layer, then they scale on under another which, when I create all 47 prefectures within one layer, then prefecture_mc:scaleY=1.2; is ignored. It was simple in AS2. besides it was scaling from the center

I have a ViewStack which is dataProvider for a TabBar. There are two VBoxs as children for this ViewStack. It works fine with absolute values for width and height for these VBoxs, but when specified in percentages, the VBox uses all the available space (100%) for any percentage value. find the code and screen shots below.
how can children of a ViewStack be aligned to center? There is no horizontalAlign property for ViewStack and it is not working with horizontalCenter= "0".
Code:
<mx:ViewStack id="viewStack" width="100%" height="100%" selectedIndex="0" horizontalCenter="0" textAlign="center">
<mx:VBox label="Tab 1" width="25%" height="10%" borderThickness="2" borderColor="red"

I have code like the following:
<s:VGroup gap="10" id="group" height="100%">
<s:Label text="This is page 2" />
<s:Button content="Resize Canvas" click="resize(event);"/>
<mx:Canvas id="photoCanvas" color="#567898" backgroundColor="#125567">
</mx:Canvas>
</s:VGroup>
I don't understand why the following does not work:
Pushing the Button resizes the photoCanvas's height (gets taller or smaller). Since the photoCanvas control is a child element of the VGroup shouldn't the container update itself to the new height? The Vgroup has ALWAYS the same height, no matter what the (total) height of the children is! I would like the VGroup to adjust itself and get a height value equal to the sum of its children heights. Is this not possible??
I'm just wondering if hitTest can be affected by the changing x,y coordinates or the changing scale of the parent clips. My platform engine doesn't seem to work everytime I try to add a script to a parenting clip (of a playable character and a computer character) that changes the x and y values of that clip as well as the scale (simulating a camera that keeps both characters in focus).

I am having some problems with clipAndEnableScrolling, it works fine for VGroup when the parent has fixed height, but if the parent doesn't have a fixed height then it doesn't work and the content spills over. e.g:

<s:VGroup width="100%">
<s:Group width="100%">

I'm using a tween on an imported file on MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT that will scale it X/Y up by 1.2. The problem is that the scaling starts in the upper left hand corner and moves out from that point. I want the scaling to start from the center.
Code:
new Tween(clipT,"scaleX",Elastic.easeIn,this.scaleX,1.2,.5,true);
new Tween(clipT,"scaleY",Elastic.easeIn,this.scaleY,1.2,.5,true);
i have a textField wherein i uses embedded fonts, the problem is when i change its size and i do not set the SAME scaleX and scaleY value, it seems to compress the letters inside it when i make it smaller, and stretch the text when i make it bigger... i tried using width and height values (instead of scaleX and scaleY but its the same result)... it seems that the embedded fonts are maintaining some kind of aspect ratio or whatever, and again this only happens when embedFonts is set to true
View 2 RepliesI have one Sprite which acts as a container for two other Sprites. One has a picture the other has a series of hotspots.
If i change the scaleX and scaleY of the picture, the hotspots don't line up anymore. Do you know the correct equation so that any scale i set will always make the hotspots appear at the right place?
I'm trying stuff like this:
hotspot.x *= scaleFactor;
hotspot.y *= scaleFactor;
but i can't quite sort it.
I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):

Having some strange problem getting a width from objects placed on stage using addChild. I am under the assumption that when I add some children to a specific parent, the parents width will increase and I can use that number to immediately act on the parent. The width is 100 when traced no matter when or where I add the children. I can change it statically but the is a desktop app which depends on screen size.[code]
View 1 RepliesChanging the width and height of the parent MovieClip does not bring change in the width and height of the inner MovieClip. The parent MovieClip is placed at Stage and is resized manually. When I assign the dimension of the parent MovieClip to the inner MovieClip through code, the parent MovieClip dimension is changed. I want both MovieClip to be of same width and height at runtime. However, parent MovieClip dimension is changed at design time by me.
Example:There are two MovieClip, one inside another. Now parent MovieClip is placed at Stage at design time and its dimension is (50,50) and the child MovieClip which is inside the parent MovieClip has also same dimensions (50,50). Now, I manually change the parent MovieClip dimension by pressing Q and stretching it with mouse, the dimension of the parent MovieClip is now (100,150) or whatever I like. Now double-click on parent MovieClip and check that inner MovieClip dimension remains same i.e. (50,50)Now in AS3 code, I change the width and height of inner MovieClip like this:
saveheight = parentmc.height;
savewidth = parentmc.width;
now I change the child MovieClip according to the dimensions of the parent MovieClip like this:
parentmc.inner_mc.width = parentmc.width;
parentmc.inner_mc.height = parentmc.height;
but this brings change in parentmc also so I reassign value to parentmc like this:
parentmc.height = saveheight;
parentmc.width = savewidth;
In above case, parentmc and inne_rmc dimension should be same i.e (100 ,150). With swapping the values as above, I get parentmc and inner_mc to be of same dimension, but object size is never (100, 150), I have checked it with pixel-perfect air app.
I have a container object that i add children to. I want to change the height & width of the container without the children scaling. In this case I draw a rectangle in flash which I'll use as the container object then export for AS.

Is there any possibility to change screen width and height not in Flash ( in Properties ), but in Code [ any AS3 line? ].
