"nag to complicate things" aye *raises hand* :)
This effect reminds me a lot of the tricks we used to pull hacking away into the night on C64 assembler though, ie we have 2 bitmaps (front and back), we have a new bitmap and loop a sinus or something like that over all the rows, a positive number is grab rows from bitmap 1 and scale them times the value (0..1) and a negative number is grabs rows from bitmap 2 and scale them times the Math.abs(value). All the paste we copy the grabbed rows to the new canvas. The total flip effect array.length would be 3 x bitmap.rows.length (one block of 1's, one block of 1..-1 and one block of -1's). Making any sense or too short of an explanation? Might not be the best either but I'd think it'd work:) greetz JC On 7/1/07, Amir T Rocker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Thats nice to hear :) I heard software developers have a nag to complicate things Guess that would concern me Thanks for the quick reply. I havent worked with flash for over a year now- so i am a bit out of date :) Please share how to do that without having to work a lot Amir Am 10:01 PM 6/30/2007 schrieben Sie: >ATR> I believe they programmed a AS3 based 3D >ATR> Rasterizer to create this flip - AS3 can do that quite easy since >ATR> it provides all necessities to do so : >ATR> >ATR> ByteArray to hold the pixels >ATR> Matrix to do the transforms >ATR> BitmapData to manipulate and draw .... and more .... > >Flash 8 has everything what is needed for such an effect. > >ATR> Besides if content is retrieved from inside a DB >ATR> or from some kind of Backend, chances are you >ATR> would not have a way to transform the content ON >ATR> THE CLIENT - meaning you would have to convert >ATR> the content from Text to Image on the Server -- arrghhh sounds tricky :) > >If you already know BitmapData, probably you are familiar with >BitmapData.draw(), too :) > >Well, I think you are overcomplicating something, this effect is not >so hard to create as you expect :) > > Attila > >_______________________________________________ >[email protected] >To change your subscription options or search the archive: >http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders > >Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software >Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training >http://www.figleaf.com >http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
