If I skin a button and use the AS3 graphice.clear() and graphics.lineTo and beginFill to create a shape, the button overlaps other items in the container.
When I use the and mxml to create the same shape, the button is neatly positioned inside the container.
I am trying to draw a line from x1, y1 to x2,y2 and i want it to be a line that repeats a pattern from an image. All I can see is that you can only draw lines and change their color or thickness but I would like it to repeat an image. Is that possible or do i have to use a really long and thin rectangle with a bitmap fill?The problem is I am making a game where the user will be able to actually draw the line so i have to make it be created dynamically. The game fantastic contraption [URL] has in the game a feature where you draw lines of any length and position that are filed with a picture.

using pencil tool inside flash i can create stippled line style, well, im using graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY) to create a drawing API but i need use some in this line a style like stippled stroke, or if is possible use stroke ( and how ) to make the same line using stippled style?
How to custom this line?
I have one simple app, loads an image and then via class that extends shape the user is able to draw. Now I want to create an eraser tool so the user could erase something that he dislikes. As far as I know the easiest way is to make:
Code:
lineStyle(size, 0xffffff,1);
moveTo(mouseX, mouseY);

i want to bend the movie clip which is create by mc.graphics.lineTo() command.
when start my project this line is crate between two point "P1" and "P2", after some activity i want that line to bend like bow. i know the "curveTo()" function but i dont want to use it.
I'm drawing a line using this code:
this.graphics.moveTo(posx, posy);
this.graphics.lineTo(2*posx,2*posy);
But now I want to remove it, but I can't clear the whole this.graphics object because it contains more information that is useful for me. How can I remove this line without clearing this.graphics object? Is there any method to draw a similar line over it to hide or replace the line?
I wanted to check if there is a easy way to build an arrow for a line... currently I am trying to draw a triangle at end of the line- doable but a load of geometry to handle as the line could be at any angle and- anything build-in available?

View 2 RepliesI'm extremely new to flash programming, and suddenly my teacher give me assignment to make a flash about mirror reflection line. Here is my as code to draw a simple line after following some tutorial online.
[Code]....
this is the thing: Using "lineTo" i get a line drawn on stage when dragging a mc. Then i should have four mc (note1, note2, note3, note4) added randomly over this line. I mean, the line is drawn and then over some parts of this line, using x and y of some of the points drawn there, this movie clips should be added randomly. I can make the mc appear randomly, but always in the same point (mouseX, mouseY); i cannot access others x and y of the drawn line. This is my code (noteContainer is a sprite):
Code:
private function drawingAPI(event:MouseEvent):void{
sprite1.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
}

I am working on Drawing API. There is a movieclip on stage which I am animating using Tween class. I just want to draw a line from the initial position of a the movieclip to it's final position. I can draw line, but I can see the lines being duplicated each time the enterframe runs. I just want a single line do be drawn from the movieclip's initial position to it's final position.

I was reading the 'Isometric Transformations' tutorial by Danko Kozar and I have a few questions. I understand what all the code does, but not how it does it. First of all, how does the following code work:
transforms x,y,z coordinates into Flash x coordinate
xFla = function (x, y, z) {
// cartesian coordinates[code].....
I understand that it converts 3d coordinates to 2d coordinates, but I don't understand how. What numbers whould be punched into x, y, and z to acquire certain desired effects?Also, what's the difference between moveTo and lineTo:
red line
style(1, "0xFF0000", 100);
plot(0, 0, 0);
draw(200, 0, 0);
I'm trying to animate a line by drawing using tweenmax and lineTo, but flash seems a little confused about the coordinates of things. The lines are also drawn a little shaky. Here's my code:
var childArray:Array = new Array(sC0,sC1,sC2,sC3);
var curChild = 0;
function drawLines(){

I have drawn a series of lines using flash's graphics.lineTo command, and placed them in an array to be referenced later. Based on certain user interactions, the clips that hold these lines can be shifted to the right, causing the lines to move with them, no longer connecting to the point they originally connected to. So I need to extend the lines by the amount their parent clip was shifted (I've called this incVal). So what I need to do is find the point at which each of these lines ended at, and draw from that point to the left by incVal. How do I get that ending point of the line?
This is my code:
To draw line and add it both to the clip and to an array for future reference:
line.graphics.lineTo(localPoint.x,localPoint.y-10);
membersRef.addChild(line);
parallelArr.push(line);

I'm working through a book called Foundation Game Design with Flash, and I'm finding the Flash IDE confusing. I've been programming for several years, so working with AS3 directly is far easier than trying to understand symbols and nested symbols and the difference between graphics and movie clips and scoping issues and all that -- when tied into the IDE.
How many of you who are making games in AS3 also use the Flash IDE? Can anyone recommend a resource that is AS3 heavy and Flash IDE light? I don't care how much time I may or may not save by using things like the timeline, I just want to understand what I'm using.
is it possible to align the stroke of a graphic with actionscript? for example, the following code creates a black rounded rect with a grey stroke that is automatically centre aligned.
var t:Sprite = new Sprite();
t.graphics.lineStyle(5, 0x555555);
t.graphics.beginFill(0, 1);
t.graphics.drawRoundRect(25, 25, 200, 75, 25, 25);
t.graphics.endFill();
the lineStyle function doesn't seem to offer any built-in functionality for aligning the stroke. in Adobe Illustrator, you can align a stroke to be either centre (half in/half out of the fill), inside (bordering within the fill) or outside. (bordering outside the fill).
How can I Tween drawing a line mc.graphics.lineTo(); ? I just see tweener has an onUpdate property awesome.
View 0 RepliesI have an application that creates a chart dynamically. This chart has a lot of information plotted on it (4-6 stock trends). I want to be able to toggle some of those lines with a button. Each trend is drawn with something like this:
Code:
// establish a new Vector object for the commands parameter
var line_commands:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int>();
line_commands.push(1,2,2,2);
// establish a new Vector object for the data parameter
var line_coord:Vector.<Number> = new Vector.<Number>();
// use the Vector array push() method to add a set of coordinate pairs
line_coord.push(0,0, 75,50, 100,0, 125,50);
graphics.drawPath(line_commands, line_coord);
How would I toggle the line I just drew? My first idea would be to put some of this code inside a function and redraw the line with the same color of the movie's background color. I don't know if this is the best option, I was wondering if I could draw this line inside a Sprite or Movie Clip and just toggle its visibility?
I am trying to delete a single line using graphics.clear() method but it clears all the instance of lines created by lineTo() method. I want to remove a single line upon click from bunch of its multiple instance.
View 2 RepliesI need to replace multiple contiguous new line/line feed characters in flex with a single new line character.
Example:
The string
"My name is blah blah
My name is blah
"
Should be converted to
"My name is blah blah
My name is blah
"
Hope the example makes it easier to understand.
I am using a component to render it.
I guess using regex would be the easiest way to do this, but still it would be great if people can point me out to references/examples to get this done with ease.
I am using flex 4.5.
I need to read a large CSV file (8-15 MB) and generate a LineChart in Flex AIR. Since Chart need data in structurd format like XML. When I read CSV and convert it to XML object 8 MB file size become 24 MB XML object and not able to graph.
Best solution is to read Line by line and read only part of data. How can I acheive this in Flex AIR ? Is it possible to read line by line in Flex.
Otherwise what are the best ways to draw a graph in FLEX using large data.
I was wondering about MC and hey can help to lag a game out. I set up an advanced class system so i don't have to use MC to simulate walls, all i use isthe x,y,width and height. Well anyway since i don't need MC anymore I was wondering if there is a way to attach Graphics instead of MC cause a Graphics file size is relatively small than that of a graphic, I think. If anyone could tell me thats true and show me a way to attach graphics that would be nice. I haven't tried it yet but maybe if I exported the graphic from the library imihgt be able to call its name, but it doesn't have an instance name so im stuck.
