Flex :: Move Images Into And Out By Converting Back And Forth Between ByteArrays
Jun 21, 2010
I would like to be able to move images into and out of Flex by converting back and forth between ByteArrays. I've been having some trouble with this, so I designed a simple test program, and even that I can't get to work. Here's the code I'm trying right now:
[Code]...
So far the process follows top to bottom: Click button 3, image displays, everything is going well. Click button 4, and I get "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2124: Loaded file is an unknown type." after the line "loader.loadBytes(myByeArray);" in the function button4_clickHandler. As far as I can tell I'm using everything as intended.
I have created a motion-tween with three images rotating in a flat circle from the foreground to the back. As the images move to the background, they shrink in size 25% and darken a bit. The motion has three stopping stages, with each image having a period in the foreground.
I am having an issue figuring how to make the images in the front to overlap those in the back as it rotates. I have tried placing each image on a seperate layer and placing the images on a single layer but it doesn't function the way I hope.
I have an Air application with remote service in codeigniter. I'm trying to save a bytearray that I received from the Air app but when I save the data I get empty files with the correct filename.So there must be something wrong with my bytearray or the way I save the data. Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong? I've debugged the Arraycollection I sent and the bytearray is definitely in there.This is where I make my arraycollection to send to my codeigniter amf
ActionScript Code: var ldr:Loader = Loader(event.target.loader); var b:Bitmap = Bitmap(ldr.content);[code]....
I want to extract/read the button icon image as a Flex image component, then apply transform filters to it to make it black/white and then apply image as an icon to another button. So far I can get the icon out as an Object by doing this: var iconImg:Object = myBtn.getStyle("icon"); Not sure how to convert that Object to an image.
I am trying to take images I am placing in a flex canvas component to a bitmap. I was able to get to the point where I'm not getting an error but then no image shows up and the image I save out as a jpg is blank. I imagine I'm not setting the bitmap data correctly but can't figure out what I am doing wrong.
Here is the code where I am converting it to a bitmap:
I'm having a task in which I have to read and save images in the database.I'm using C#.net Webservice and SQlserver2008 database and I'm saving image as varbinary format.How I can read images from local system and convert it into byte array in Flex ?How to show images in Flex that are recieved in type Bytearray?
well i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.
Using Tween class maybe? I tried the easeOut. But if will write 2 Tween, the 2nd one will overwrite the 1st one, so I only see the obj moving in the 2nd Tween direction, not the 1st Tween direction. I know the coordinates for the 2nd Tween below is not correct (cos all coordinates shld follow the defined reference point), so I need to find out the logo's width and height. But is alright now cos it is for testing purpose.
I have CS3, but was trying out the CS5 trial. Unfortunatedly i forgot to save my .fla back to something CS3 could use! Smooth I know, but does anyone know of a way to convert back, or would anyone with CS5 be able to save my file as something CS3 could use? If that is even possible.

I am having some dificulty making a path for this enemy i'm trying to create... cause i want him to rotate + move, then stop, then shoot, then rotate back and move off screen... Its easier if you see it.. you can download the swf file in the zipped archive to demonstrate what i mean. I did it there with tweens. Anyway.. i tried and make it but i'm a little stuck on the stopping part... you can also see what i did in the fla file attatched...
Is there a way in actionscript to convert an image to text data, i want to do an air app that converts an image to text and saves it in a text file, i also need a way to convert that text back to an image,
OK, at first this seemed like the easiest thing to do, but I've tried to make it work a number of different ways and nothing seems to work. I have a movie clip that I want to have constantly moving back and forth across the stage, basically "bounce" off the left and right sides. What's the best way to do this using AS2?
I have made a simple "maze game".Player is sent to frame 10 if they reach the end goal or frame 20 if they accidentally "rollover" my walls (button). In frame 1, I successfully remove the mouse and add a Movie Clip to the Mouse/Cursor. I remove the MC when they go to frame 10 OR frame 20 and then when they replay and are sent back to frame 1. The MC again appears as the Cursor. GREAT. Now here's my problem. When they are sent back to frame 1, I want the Cursor to be at an exact position to replay the game. Right now, it ends up wherever they have the cursor pointing and if it is touching my "walls", game over immediately. Here is the code I have on frame 1. It is working BUT I need to add code that makes the cursor ALSO go to a specific position.
I've got an upload button I've made in Flash that links to a PHP script and I was wondering if there was any way I could convert all the images to PNGs as the user uploads them?
<?php if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], "Parts/userdata/" . $_FILES['Filedata']['name'])) {
I am loading an external swf file into my swf file in CS4 with AS2. The reason I am doing this is that the external swf file contains a sequence of images and I tried to convert it to flv video but using many tricks and software out there (like converting to AVI and then to FLV) but there was always LOSS in quality. My question is! Is there a SWF player component much like FLV player component, because I need to give the user the ability to stop, pause, rewind etc.... the loaded external swf file?
I am using Flash Professional CS5 and a sequence of small images that I want to convert to a MovieClip to use in actionscript 3. I have a blank actionscript 3 file. I go to Insert -> New Symbol, name it 'blue', set it as a Movieclip and tick 'Export For Actionscript'. Then I press OK. I get the message about creating a new class and click OK. Obviously this creates 'blue' in my library. I then go to File -> Import -> Import To Stage and select my first image of four, 'blue1.png'. It asks if I want to import the sequence of images. I have blue1.png, blue2.png, blue3.png, blu4.png, so I click Yes and the images appear on the timeline, stage and my library. Can I now use the class 'blue' in my main actionscript file? Currently, in my main actionscript file, called BubbleVillage, I have some very simple code:
Code: package { import flash.display.*; public class BubbleVillage extends MovieClip { public function BubbleVillage() { private var firstblue:blue; firstblue = new blue(); addchild(firstblue); }}} When I save and test the movie, I get a blank screen.
I'm doing a flashlight in pixel bender and works great. I pass, as parameters, the center of the flashlight.Now, I want to have more than one flashlights (n value).I don't think so I can use Arrays in Pixel Bender, so I thought about ByteArrays but I don't know how to use it in Pixel Bender.
I am trying to load swf as byteArrays. I am able to load the swf, however I am unable to access movieclip properties. I have the code below.. How do I get access to movieclip properties?[code]...
I'm having issues with a dynamic text box not displaying the any text. I've tested this on the main timeline, and everything works. When I move the textbox back a couple of MC's, nothing displays.
_root.bullets_mc.flip_mc.points_display.text = "You have a total of "+formatNumber(totalEntries) + "Hits";
ok you know when on a button it may "move up" or somthing and then you get off the button and it pops righ back into place.. how do u make it move slowly and fluently back to the position.. like if you have 4 different boxes, and you click it and the arrows move to next box, but if the first box is clicked again, it will moved up to previous box smoothly back to the first box, what code do i need for this...?
I tried to create simple animation from this Kirupa's tutorial My aim is to make a circle run from left to right and when it is almost to the edge it will move back to the origin point and it will loop only 3 times. So I came up with totally baby script like this:
[Code]...
But the MC is not move back to the original place. Sorry for not even finish the script for stop looping. Only tweak on play loop it make me very confused. My knowledge is quite in entry level but I eager to learn. Could you let me know what is wrong with the script?
As you can see when the bird flies across the screen it leaves part of it at the end, then clouds and the wolf do the same thing.This is all vector based artwork. It doesn't make sense becuase the simple images or complex images both leave a portion behind when rendering.The video plays perfectly in Flash. I tried importing it into iMovie and the same problem occurs.I don't even know what this is called so I can't seem to find any support on the issue
I have a web application developed in Adobe Flex 3 and Python 2.5 (deployed on Google App Engine). A RESTful web service has been created in Python and its results are currently in an XML format which is being read by Flex using the HttpService object.Now the main objective is to compress the XML so that there is as less a time between the HttpService send() method and result events. I looked up Python docs and managed to use zlib.compress() to compress the XML result.Then I set the HttpService result type from "xml" to "text" and tried using ByteArrays to uncompress the string back to XML. Here's where I failed. I am doing something like this:[code]Its throwing an exception at byteArray.uncompress() and says unable to uncompress the byteArray. Also when I trace the length of the byteArray it gets 0.[code]
I'm trying to combine two ByteArrays to send it out as post data using URLRequest.. Whenever I try to simply add them up, the request becomes get instead of POST and the data for some reason doesn't get included.
I have an animation that I want the user to be able to move back and forth by clicking Next_btn or Back_btn buttons. Here's what I've done.
[Code]...
I can navigate through the movie correctly, until I navigate back to frame 1 ("start"). After this, when I click on the Next button, the movie goes to the last frame without stopping at "KMT2".
does anyone know if there is any possibility to do simple elementwise math on bytearrays without having to program it explicitely, e.g. a built-in function for multiplying all elements of a bytearray (of type float) by a constant or adding the elements of two bytearrays (with specified datatype)?
how do I script a movieclip to repeatedly fade/move/scale from x to z back to x to z again and again..I've tried onEnterFrame with ..if statements and whatnot but with no luck.[code]
