I am coding in AS3 and I am using BitmapData to take a snapshot of a movieclip. Is there a way to have the end result BitmapData to support transparency?
How do I take a snapshot of a movieclip without any background?
I am downloading an external swf file, which contains a library movieclip which I want to go through and extract bitmapdata of each frame. to do this I am using a for loop on this bit of code:
Code:
var tmpBMData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(baseObj.width, baseObj.height);
tmpBMData.draw(baseObj);
Problem is, when I stick that bitmapdata in a new bitmap and put it on the stage, the bit of the mc I am interested in is surrounded by a white square. Not sure if this is something I need to handle in the Flex AS3 or the Flash CS5 used to create the swf.
As the title already states i have a (big) problem importing a PNG in a Flex 4 application.Created a PNG file in Photoshop with transparent background. Loaded in Flex application using this code:[code]So when the complete event fires the data has been loaded and it is possible to assign the data loaded to the image component named Thumbnail:[code]Unitls now everything works as expected!But when i try to send the Thumbnail component's data to a WCF service i receive a photo with white background:[code]
View 2 RepliesI want to take a snapshot of a movieclip and add the snapshot to the stage on every frame.
Does anyone know how to do this?
I'm trying to achieve a reflection effect...
On the stage I have a movieclip with an animation inside it, at the moment I've given to its background the same color of the stage to simulate a transparence.Now I've added some decorations to the bottom left corner of the stage and this movieclip lays a bit over the decoration showing that in truth the movieclip is not transparent because it covers part of the decoration.Is there a way to make the movieclip background really transparent?I've checked where I apply colors to elements, but there is not a "transparent" option, or at least I havent seen it.

I have a modal Flex dialog and want to make the background not of the window itself, but the semitransparent modal indicator transparent. (Yes I tried to convince the client they don't want to do this, but apparently they really want to do it). Is this even possible?(prefer a solution using Flex 3's TitleWindow, but Spark/Flex 4 TitleWindow is acceptable)

I have a button in my flex app that creates a popup overtop of everything. However, it seems like flex automatically puts this transparent overlay overtop of the stage when this happens. How do I disable this? I have tried contentBackgroundAlpha="0" and backgroundAlpha="0" with no luck. anyone know what the proper syntax is for disabling this transparency? I have been searching through the docs for a 30 minutes now looking for it.

Maybe, instead of making it transparent I could try to reduce the padding, in order to make only the children visible ?
Is there a way to have a transparent background in a flash application built with Flex 4? I need to put it on a webpage where the html background is visible through the flash.
View 1 RepliesI almost got it, but the part that's giving me trouble is making the header background transparent. I am making a custom MXML skin based on the default Spark DataGrid skin. I tried setting the contentBackgroundAlpha to 0 on the columnHeaderGroup and the headerRenderer, but that didn't work. I tried setting visible to false for either of those, but that made it so that the text didn't show up either, so that didn't work. There is no setting for backgroundAlpha in either of those two, so I'm not sure what else to try.

View 1 RepliesI've designed a Flash site in CS3 using Action Script 2.0 that has a main flash movie sorta floating in space over a gradient background. I want the gradient background to re-size with the browser, so I thought that the easiest way to do this would be to delete the gradient background in Flash and instead recreate the background in Dreamweaver using the repeat background option and then make the Flash movie's background transparent. (I hope I'm making some amount of sense here).
I've found a few tutorials on how to do this, but so far I just get a white background instead of transparent. I've tried choosing "Transparent - Windowless" under Window Mode on the HTML tab in Publish Settings. And I've tried selecting the movie from within DW and clicking the parameter button and adding a "wmode" parameter with "transparent" as its value.
I have a custom component that extends mx:TextArea,but when I try and apply backgroundAlpha= "0" it says The style 'backgroundAlpha' is only supported by type 'components.LabelEditor' with the theme(s) 'halo'.I don't see anywhere specifying that it is not using the Halo theme, unless it has decided to extend s:TextArea despite my not importing it.How can I make this component accept the style instructions or achieve a transparent background some other way?

When I pass it through the function I only get the bottom-right portion of the image. It has a centered registration point. I've tried all registration points too and the top-left (0,0) works but my project is already based around objects having a low-mid registration point: Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

A friend and I are working on a Flash game. He is programming it and needs the different character animations in SWF form. The problem is when he places them in-game, they are surrounded by the white block that was behind the character animation.
How do you make the background of the SWF/flash file transparent so they white block will no longer be visible. I know how to do it in HTML for the web, but this must be different.
What I need to is to alter the html flash generated to have a static background that fills the browser, doesn't tile or scale that my movie can load over. I have messed with all the publish settings and I am sure I am just making all the wrong choices.
