Update: Once and for all, how can I draw a line that goes from (0,0) to the opposite corner of the stage?Here is what I have:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
[code].....
I have a little snippet of code that allows the user to create a line with the mouse, and clears the line if they end up touching the hitbox with the mouse, while they're drawing the line. It works fine when it's just thrown onto the main timeline. However, when I try to encapsulate it within a movie clip, it suddenly doesn't work. At all. Are there any suggestions as to why this is happening? Here's the code.

i want to draw a line with actionscript .Here is my code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"[code]......
Dose the Flex has some Tags just like <v:line> or <v:polyline> in VML?
View 1 RepliesAfter some search and reading the Graphics class document, I can't find a way to specify the line style of a line. I mean whether the line is a solid one or a dotted one.
View 3 RepliesApparently, it is not possible to have a chart with several independant horizontal axis. What I am trying to achieve is :
Display a bar chart, organized by any category
Overlay a line (actually a single horizontal line) on top of it (to display some sort of threshold)
I tried doing the following :
[Bindable] public var columnsDataProvider : ArrayCollection =
new ArrayCollection([{"Category" : "Cat1", "Value" : 10},
{"Category" : "Cat2", "Value" : 20}]);
[Code] .....
This is the closest to what I want, except that the line does not start span all the graphs vertically (it is drawn only between the two columns of my bar chart). Is it possible to define a completely independant horizontal axis? I also tried drawing directly on the canvas, but the canvas.lineTo() method only works in "data" coordinate; I would need something that works in "chart/canvas/absolute/whatever" coordinates.
I am making a flex whiteboard application where lines are drawn over an image here is the scenario:
1: main canvas holding the background image and drawing canvas
2: user can move image by dragging image
3: user can draw over image, which is actually drawing on canvas over image.
I'm having problem on erasing lines like it eraser in paint. Searched evry where but didnot find a way to erase drawn lines

the code is straightforward and my Intention should be clear. Still i can get this to work:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

Is there a way to draw a line on a graph (or at least get the position) on specific date?
I have a graph where X is Date data, I want to draw a line with a text on each Year and each 3 months as reference, not part of the graph series.
I want to draw a squiggle line below misspelled word in a Flex Spark RichEditableText component.
View 1 Replies[code]This code is drawing a colum chart with two columns and drawing a line across the top of both columns. I have two requirements: the line need to be dashed as of now the line starts from top right corner of the first column to the same corner of the second column. How can i shift the line to the left, so that it starts from center of first column to center of second column.
View 3 RepliesI am using Flex 4 and AS3 and I am trying to make it so that the user can draw a freehand line with the cursor - I have this part done.However, I also need the line to be a dashed line instead of one solid line like it is now. below is my code I am using. I have found some examples on how to do this, but they are all for straight lines, not for a freehand line.

I am developing a white board application which allows the user to draw line with arrow head (some like Microsoft Word line with arrow feature). I am using graphics property along with lineTo() method to draw a line. Now i have to draw a angular arrow on the last point of line. I am drawing the arrow by connecting the points around last points. As 360 line can pass through this point and each line can have a different angle of arrow.
View 1 RepliesI need to be able to draw a thick patterend line between 2 points in AS3, I can't use the draw API because it doesn't all me to actually put detail (pattern etc) into the thickness of the line, I thought about perhaps using the line to create a bitmap version and then using that as a mask, but I remember many years ago seeing some examples that use a movieclip as a source for a line.
View 1 Repliesdraw a line on mouse movement, not the static line.
I am attaching a sample which is 90 degree bounded as it has been given in animation, I want to make this or such type through mouse movement.
I'm trying to produce a game that on mouse down a dotted line (or just a line) gets dragged out following the mouse until it is realized then it disappears.
View 1 RepliesI want to create a line tool exactly like flash line tool. But the code that I am using shows the line when we release the mouse button. How can I show the lines while it is drawing[code]...
View 4 RepliesI'm making a very simple game that lets you draw a curve by hand (using lineTo to the mouse position on mousemove) but now, I need to check wether the line intersects wiith another part of the same line (e.g. a loop)
I first used an onrollover command, and that worked, but not always because the mouse moved too fast (same with hittest with mouse). Then I pre-drawed the line in another mc, used hittest on it, and if it wasn't intersecting, draw it in the real mc. But that didn't work because it used the bounds to test. I guess the best way is to use some mathematical formula, but that would mean I have to save all my coordinates in an array..
how I draw a line through a path line? An example I have a movieClip that is a pencil and it is moving through a path line, now I want to draw the line that the pencil draw.
View 2 RepliesI have firefox 3.6.15 with flash debug version 10.3. whenever an error occurs a popups comes up with the error and a stack trace but it does not line numbers of each leaf in the stack trace which makes it more difficult to debug. how to configure it to actually show line numbers ?
I think it may relate to how I compile my flash application. (i think!) i use eclipse FDT 4.2 to compile and i added the following compiler flags: -debug=true -compiler.verbose-stacktraces i think these parameters should be enough but I may be wrong.
Im building a pretty simple drawing board in flash, i got this code from this forum and it works fine (there is more to it but this is the drawing part)[code]This works fine. But i want to be able to erase the drawings, step by step this is ths tricky part, ive looked everywhere(ok not everywhere) but in a whole lot of places but the only thing i found is how i could delete everything with removeChild and that in not what i want. Maybe i need to change the function abowe? Please help me to get in the right direction. What should i read about /look at?

View 0 RepliesThis code is from a drawing board, the problem is:
1- When you click outside the drawing area, a dot is drawn (thus you cant click anything except inside drawing area because it will result in undesired dots)
2- When you drag outside the drawing area the dot is drawn (bad), the pencil doesn't draw (good), but if you drag until reaching the drawing area draws (undesired, because it should only draw when you started to drag from inside the drawing area) how to tweak the code or simple add a "deselect" tool option ? That's a link to the fla file ziped, and that's the code of the drawing board: [URL]

i'm working on a class project that allows people to draw on a square, save it, display it for others to see, and then lets anyone to continue drawing on that square.how do i script that? i need to use flash and AS2.0, and i'm trying to do some research on how to do this whole thing, and i'm hearing a lot of things: some say xml, some with php and mysql? whatever it is, i believe this has to be a server-side thing? i don't mind learning light scripting of other languages, but the primary scripting should be AS, since it's a flash class.i'm not sure if this is true, but i think xml, php, and mysql are only text-based? for my project, i imagine that people would be saving an swf and then loading that swf and continue adding. is there a script in AS that generates an swf? maybe jpg is fine too. i just need to be able to save and load something that's image based and not text-based.

how to turn that "Drawing Object" thing off! I cant even fill it in! (the thing i draw) Im using Flash Pro CS5
View 1 Repliesim new to this forum and kinda new to flash and php together...i have this project that would load a swf movie on a drawing board and user could draw something over then swf movie. It should be able to save the drawings to the database, so that the user could just load it for later use. for example if the user draws a zigzag line at frame 5 of swf movie and on frame 10 of the swf movie deletes the zigzag line and draw a circle and then saves it. then loads it later, from frame 1 to 4 of the swf movie the zigzag line should not show but on frame 5 to frame 9 it would show and on frame 10 shows only the circle. or just on the specific frame number of the swf movie it will show. like when user draw on frame 6 then on before or after frame 6 it wont show..the second one might be a bit easier to implement.
how do i save the user drawings over the swf movie? and how do i load it? do i have to save everthing (like x and y coordinates, movieclip names) in a textfile? and use that textfile to recreate the swf file drawn? what ways could i implemnt this? hopefully someone to could point me in the right direction.
I made this one poor class that has a public function which draws with a single loop a shape with curveTo() function (I tested one option to draw straight lines with lineTo() and only curved lines with curveTo() function but in my opinion, that lineTo function where a bit slower, at least in my implementations of testin speeds).I sent to it four parameters (anchor points and the control points) as many times as there were some corners to draw and everything seemed to go well untill I checked which way is faster to draw single rounded rect. Flashs own way beats my version up with huge 120 m/s distance already in some 100 000 iterations. The format of data I tested to send to my class function to draw that goddamned thing were numbers in arrays, numbers in objects and numbers in my own class objects like linked list and the file that holds just four numbers included in arrays or linked list. And two separate arrays, one for anchor points and one for the control points, with just Point Objects were fastest (if I remember correct) way but still that 120 m/s slower than Drawing API in Flash.My function in the class where something like:
ActionScript Code:
public function drawShape(points1:Array, points2:Array, lineOn:Boolean = false, fillOn:boolean = false, lineThickness:Number = 1, lineColor:uint = 0, lineAlpha:Number = 1, fillColor:uint = 0xff, fillAlpha:Number = 1):void{[code]..........
