Flex :: Actionscript - Unable To Take Screen Shot And Save As Pdf 4.1
Sep 6, 2011
I am using Flex 4.1 and AlivePdf for generating pdf. My requirement is like as follows: I have an array of xml data. I need to iterate that array, develop a chart, take a screen shot of that chart (using ImageSnapshot.captureImage) and save it as pdf in desktop folder. Here, I am using the following code snippet,
[Code]...
e.g. if there are 50 xml then 50 pdf need to be stored in that particular location. The problem is that it is taking too long time. Is it possible to minimize to pdf creation time?
I would like to ask you, how can i make screen shoot(of movie clip for example) by As3 and send this data to php and there make jpg or somethink like this. I do not want JPGEncoder a thinks like this, because it's slow, when i want make screen 2000x2000 px. I need solution which will be quick, so just send data to php and there find solution how this data convert to jpg.
I have an FLV video embedded in a Flash site. It starts with a black screen, so currently as you land on the home page there is just a black space. Is there a way of getting it to sit on the site home page with a different image, ie. a screen shot from elsewhere in the video (without editing the actual video in an editing programme), which displays until the user presses play, then returns to it when the video is finished?
i'm working on a file where i have a screen shot at the beginning of the flash player movie and when you click on the screen shot the movie starts to play. i'd like to convert it to as2 if possible.
I have a flash app based off the Screen shot maker found here: [URL]
Creating a screen shot from an flv on the same server works fine, but when I try to load the contentPath from a remote server the video plays fine, but the .jpg generated in the PHP file is blank with a white background.
Here's the ActionScript:
PHP Code:
import flash.display.BitmapData; vid.contentPath = flvurl; var vidid = vidid;
does anyone know the best way to go about creating a flash movie that lets you click a button to dynamically create a JPEG screen shot of the movie. i looked around and found a thread close to what i am looking for but it was done in AS3.
Is it possible to take a screen shot (using the Print Screen) and paste it from the System Clipboard directly into a web pages text area field (which I would create)? Do I need a browser plug-in? Can Flash do this?
I'm building a kind of avatar creator. At the end, I want the user to be able to capture what they have made and repost it to the site, essentially save out their creation as a web-friendly image - png, gif or jpg.
Ideally they'd save out two versions, a full size and a thumbnail.
In any event, is there a way to do something like this?
I am retrieving the details from the database and printing them in the XML format. It's working pretty good and can even display the same XML format in the Flex. However, I am not sure, how to save this XML file to give it as a data provider for datagrid.
Here is my JSP code :
<% ps1 = conn.prepareStatement("select file from file where status='P'"); rs1=ps1.executeQuery();
How can I make a action script controlled print screen that will save a part of a screen And can I filter a color out of it (so that only that one color will NOT be visible on the saved img) with AS
I have upgraded my CS4 to CS5 on MAC OSX and i'm having problems saving new and existing fla files. It doesnt always do it but it's very anoying when you have done some work and are unable to save it.
I get this message:
unable to save document as (file name)
please try saving to a different filename or location.
even if i try to save as to a different location i get the same message, this ONLY happens in flash CS5 and does not do it on any other application or even flash CS4. To put it bluntly i am absolutely furious with this and when you pay this amount of money should not get this hassle for such a simple action.
I have tried phoneing the adobe support line and it's a joke, you can't even understand the operator to even get anywhere and i just gave up having to repeat myself and asking them to repeat themselves.
I would be grateful if someone out there knows an answer to this or have a contact email for adobe support that i can email them direct. As a flash developer it's critical i can get on with my work without worrying if my work will even save.
UPDATE: I can save files in CS5 as CS4 documents but not as CS5, this is so annoying.
i wrote actionscript so that on the screen, when you click, it creates lines going in random way.but when i click somewhere else, the lines i did before disapears and it creats other line where i've clicked.is there any way to save the lines so it keeps them on the screen and to create others somexhere else without deleting the one before?
Using Adobe Flash CS3 on a sometimes dual monitor setup. After attaching back to my docking station, and starting up Flash CS3, the window is off the edge of the right hand monitor somewhere, and I am not sure where. The mouse cursor makes it look like the window is somewhere off the lower right hand corner of the screen somewhere, but even after holding in the left and up arrows for a long time, there is no motion, and the window never appears. I can maximize the program back to my primary monitor, but this is hardly an ideal solution.
I have found the following registry entry, but am unsure if it applies to what I'm having problems with or what the format of the entry is: HKEY_CURRENT_USERAdobeFlash 9SettingsWindow
Can we Bypass the save dialog box of FileRefernce.save()? If not, then Is there any workaround to save a file from web application in Flex without asking user where to save file?
We installed FMS on a new server - a cloud environment - and set the fms.ini for the correct dedicated IP but we're unable to see the start screen or access any videos.where the IP would need to be added to point to the wwwroot directory?
I need to capture whats currently shown in my app and save it as a image, is a flash app running locally, without apache, just a flash app with AS3, is it possible?
I am developing a small flash application.In my application users should be able to drag different elements from a toolbox into a canvas.At some point a user will be able to save the different elements he dragged as a picture.I wanted to know if there is a functionality that prints the screen in flash.
I am trying to create a Flash movie that allows me to click a button and capture a specific moment in the movie, convert it to a JPG and send it by email.
Making an Flex App. Just wondering if anyone has created something that fits automatically to the users' screen size and how I go about doing this? One of the principle things is that I need an background image, which is obviously going to have to scale / resize to match the users screen.
I don't understand why the fla file is set to read-only.I didn't do anything and it won't let me even change the name and save.I can't save the hard drive or server.
I have a 2D game (top down), and I would like to make the character escape from a shot, but not just walk away from the shot (I mean, don't be pushed by the shot), I want it to have a good dodging skills.The variables are:
shotX - shot x position shotY - shot y position shotSpeedX - shot x speed[code].....
I have a 20 frame movieclip (named mc), and by default the playhead is stopped at frame 0 of that movieclip. At frame 10 I have a movieclip instance there named "apple". Now I want to tell mc to go to frame 10, and immediately access "apple" movieclip. This is what I do (from the main timeline):
mc.gotoAndStop(10); trace(mc.apple);
It prints out null (appled is undefined). However, when I put a timer (say of 5 milliseconds) before calling the trace statement, then it works and can access apple. I don't want to rely on timers, since the timer duration depends on different circumstances. At the same time, I do not want to put code anywhere except the first frame of the main timeline.
I have several SWFs built and ready for playback in a container SWF with volume controls, and next/previous/pause/play/stop controls (a-la a DVD player or VCR). This particular project is a product demo, with different scenes that you can navigate through using the on-screen "remote" or just let it play through. I need to know how to preload all of the external SWFs in one shot. I don't want to load them as the demo plays, or when they're needed. It's fairly critical that they all be loaded during one preloader sequence so that they can play seamlessly between eachother.
I'm pretty new to actionscript and so but I manage to read and understand and alter other people's code a little. I'm testing functions to make myself a First Player Shooter game and now I have problem with the fire delay. I want a limit of let's say 1 shot per second. How do I do that?
I thought that maybe restricting the clickings counted, so it doesn't register the mouse clicks too close to eachother. Or put some kind of interval at the functions delaying the sound and event function, but that seems too hard. The game so far: [URL] As u see one get multiple sounds when clicking a lot and it's possible to get several points by clicking the ball a lot.
Also, when the ball goes behind the tree it's not supposed to be able to shoot. The Flash File: [URL] It's not the exact same, some junk code trying to make the delay... The file I used for help (if someone finds it useful for making a game of their own [URL] Here u see the target isn't shot behind the pics. Is that because it is a button there and a mc in my file?
How can i take a snape shot of swf movie at runtime. I want to put this feature both in online application and ofline application. Requirement is this that when user click on a capture button a bitmap of flash movie should be saved on his/her computer.
I build a web site in flex that some time take input. Will this website works on Touch Screen environment(KIOSK).My question is we have to make any change to handle input such as prompt on screen keyboard when input fields are get focused or it will manage my device and OS of system(KIOSK, Touch screen system) itself.
