Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
It seems to me that that would work as a Sprite too - less memory
overheads (not by much, mind, but it'll help if there's a lot of them)
also, would you be better off making your class variables protected
or private? Those variables are being set by the constructor, anyway,
and if you use get() and set() methods on them you could add tweens
and variable checking (for instance) etc if they're changed once the
shape is initialised

Onderwerp: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
I am creating a custom Class that draws a simple rectangle for an
application. Here is the class
DrawRectangle.as
public class DrawRectangle extends MovieClip {
public var _w:Number;
public var _h:Number;
public var _x:Number;
public var _y:Number;
public function DrawRectangle(w:Number, h:Number, x:Number,
y:Number) {
this._w = w;
this._h = h;
this._x = x;
this._y = y;
Init();
}
private function Init():void {
var MC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
MC.graphics.lineStyle(1, 0xFF);
MC.graphics.beginFill(0xFF, .3);
MC.graphics.drawRect(_x,_y,_w,_h);
addChild(MC);
}
}
}
I wrote it without the last line ( addChild(MC) ) and it didnt
work. It
did
not work Event when In the Main Class I added the addChild() like
this:
var M:DrawRectangle = new Rectangle(100,100,20,100);
addChild(M);
I thought The addChild should be put outside the class. And No It
only
worked when I add the addChild() in the class and out the class... It
works
But I want to understand Why??
How can I set it to draw from the class iteself??
Thanks.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
Oh yeah I'll make the variables private and make their setters and getters.
Any ways thanks for the help everybody.
Hasta!

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
Right. I guess I was trying to address your issue about having to add it to
the display list twice. You'd still need to addChild( instance of
DrawRectangle ); But having DrawRectangle extend Sprite and then drawing
directly on this.graphics solves the problem of doing it twice.

RE: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
Because within your class which extends MovieClip, you are creating a
new MovieClip, which you draw on, and thus also has to be added to the
display list.
Also, you do know about :
sprite.graphics.drawRect()
right? So what is this class going to accomplish?
Any reason you are using MovieClip over Sprite? MovieClip just adds
unecessary overhead in this case.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
To clarify Jason's response:
You're adding two different things. In the first case, you're adding a
child movieclip (with a rectangle drawn inside it) to the empty
DrawRectangle instance. In the second case, you're adding the
DrawRectangle instance to the screen.
You should rewrite your init function so that it draws directly to the instance:
private function Init():void {
graphics.lineStyle(1, 0xFF);
graphics.beginFill(0xFF, .3);
graphics.drawRect(_x,_y,_w,_h);
graphics.endFill();
}
Finally, since this class does not have frames, it should extend
Sprite, not MovieClip.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
Aha I get it... But can I make a work out in order not to put addChild() in
the main Class? I mean that once I Make an Instance of the class it adds it
on the stage by itself.
Thanks

To clarify Jason's response:
You're adding two different things. In the first case, you're adding a
child movieclip (with a rectangle drawn inside it) to the empty
DrawRectangle instance. In the second case, you're adding the
DrawRectangle instance to the screen.
You should rewrite your init function so that it draws directly to the
instance:
private function Init():void {
graphics.lineStyle(1, 0xFF);
graphics.beginFill(0xFF, .3);
graphics.drawRect(_x,_y,_w,_h);
graphics.endFill();
}
Finally, since this class does not have frames, it should extend
Sprite, not MovieClip.

I am creating a custom Class that draws a simple rectangle for an

DrawRectangle.as

addChild(MC);
}
}
}
I wrote it without the last line ( addChild(MC) ) and it didnt work. It
did
not work Event when In the Main Class I added the addChild() like this:
var M:DrawRectangle = new Rectangle(100,100,20,100);
addChild(M);
I thought The addChild should be put outside the class. And No It only
worked when I add the addChild() in the class and out the class... It
works
But I want to understand Why??
How can I set it to draw from the class iteself??
Thanks.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
You could just draw the rectangle directly on the graphics of the
DrawRectangle:
graphics.lineStyle(1, 0xFF);
graphics.beginFill(0xFF, .3);
graphics.drawRect(_x,_y,_w,_h);
Because it extends MovieClip (or Sprite, hopefully, as Steven suggests, it
has its own graphics property.
Then you can think about renaming your class from DrawRectangle to
Rectangle, since it not only draws it, it is one.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom DrawRectangle Question
Nothing Changed..The Code is the same and it is not autoadding...
By the way I Know that There is allready drawRect() but I will be adding
some more functionalities to the class that drawRect has not.
