I need the user of my Flex application to be able to save a snapshot of part of the UI to a local jpg file. I got the screenshot part down - can generate an image out of any given control. However, the only way I see to let the user save the image locally is to send to my server which would return it with the appropriate Content-Disposition.

I've managed to draw a custom shape onto a canvas and use that shape as a mask over an image. Is there anyway possible to crop the image and save it out in the custom shape?making whatever is outside the shape transparent? The only image cropping i can find is using rectangles, whereas i need a polygon shape.
View 1 RepliesI wrote these functions which I use in conjunction to scale down some BitmapData and save it as a PNG. However, the scaledImage.draw(originalImage, scalingMatrix, null, null, null, true); line with smoothing set to true does not have the intended smoothing effect when I save the bitmap data as a PNG using the second function. The resulting image file is not antialiased at all. Is there anything I'm doing wrong here?
public static function scaleImage(originalImage:BitmapData, size:int):BitmapData
{
// Calculate the scaled size.

I want to save a screenshot of my flash application at the highest resolution as possible ( 300 dpi or more).[code]...
Do you know how to improve the resolution ? Is there any encoder that can make higher resolution pictures ?
On my website people enter, watch a live stream from a remote server (not my server) and when they click on a button it report it to me and what I want to add is the ability for me to take a screenshot of this stream at the very moment when they click that button and save it on the server. They question is how to implement so? Now I just have that stream in an Iframe that shows it as a .swf object Possible solutions I thought of but don't know whether will work are:
Embedding this Iframe inside a flash object that I will create. That means that on the website the users will see a flash object I created that all it does is to show the stream from an url I give it and when the user clicks on a button inside the html it will send the flash the command to save the screenshot now and then save it on my server (don't know how to implement it, so the second question is, if you think it will work, how to do so?).Second solution is to have an open browser on my server that when the user clicks the button, I send an ajax request to the server that will then order the browser to take a screenshot and save it locally on the server. (again, if you think this solution will work, tell me how to implement so).
how can i take a screenshot from flash and save it to disk using php or whatever.

View 7 RepliesI'm new to Flash (CS5.5) but have self taught quite a bit. I created a simple "slide show" model of images which fade in and out to other images—it's a holiday greeting card. How do I save/export/publish (not sure of the correct terminology) this .fla file so that my end result is an image that I can insert (as an image) into an email (outlook) and send. The recipient should be able to click on the image and activate the movie.
View 3 RepliesI made this dress-up type game, and have been trying to figure out how to let the user save an image of their creation. I've been researching and figured out I need to use bitmapData.draw and fileReference.save in the actionscript somewhere. The only problem is I want this to be a standalone .swf if possible. The 'game' is here. This is part of my code:

I have an masked image that is externally loaded onto my stage that the user can drag and position.I then need to be able to record or save where and how the user has positioned the image by either -taking a bitmap copy of where the user has positioned the image (my first and easiest thought of how to do this) -or is it possible to get X and Y co ordinates of where they have positioned it I have a movie currently set up but when the user clicks 'save and continue' it takes a copy of the original position of the image - not from where you have last dragged it to?Full code and attached fla file below
Code:

I would like to take a "screenshot" of the stage within flash and send it as an image by email. I have tried AMFPHP and the method described here - [URL]. This is saving a jpg of a movie on the server, but no email function. I know how to setup a very simple php email file but without attachment. So my problem is I have no idea how to "connect" all those parts together and make it so that when you click the button in flash it'll send the jpg by email directly.

In Flex, I am using graphics.codec.JPEGEncoder to save image files that are edited inside application (normal manipulations like brightness etc.) I am able to save files perfectly. What I want to know is that is there any way I can save the image with a better dpi? Say, for instance the image that is loaded and manipulated was originally of 72dpi, now can I save it with a dpi of 150 or 300 ? If so, how to do it.
Doesn't have to be using the JPEGEncoder, if there's any way to do it at all, like using any library etc, I am okay with it.
Note: If it matters, I am using Bitmapdata to store the image and manipulations and saving the image with JPEGEncoder by supplying it's data as bytearray like below.
var imageBytes:ByteArray = encoder.encode(myBitmapData);

View 1 RepliesMy application consists of displaying a large custom tree like structure to the user that can eventually grow to massive proportions like the dimensions listed in the question. I allow them to export the image with the following line of code tied to a button click event:
var image:ImageSnapshot = ImageSnapshot.captureImage(this, 72, new PNGEncoder(), false);
I've managed to export images close to the dimensions listed but around there it start to get the error message listed below after spinning for close to 15 seconds:

Is the flashplayer plugin for my browser running out of memory? I noticed in my task manager it got up to about 1.2GB of memory usage(I have 4GB on my system). If that is the case is it possible to limit the memory usage for a given function like the ImageSnapshot.captureImage() call above?
Is there maybe a way to generate the component into 2 or 4 ImageSnapshot objects and piece them together afterward?
