Cartoon Smart ActionScript 2 and 3 Drawing API May Newsletter
The Lesson is compatible with Flash 8 and Flash CS3
Difficulty: Intermediate.
Programmably Create and Animate Shapes using ActionScript 3 or 2*
This two part lesson covers the Drawing API using both ActionScript 3 (in Flash CS3) and ActionScript 2 (in Flash 8). The Drawing API allows you to create shapes using any code. So don't let the word "Drawing" in the title of this lesson confuse you. The traditional Flash drawing tools are totally off limits. Part One covers the basics of creating shapes (circle, squares, etc) and scripted filters (bevels, blurs, glows, etc). Part Two teaches various ways to animate them.
*A note about the code: Most of the line-by-line programming and code explanations will be done using ActionScript 3. At the end of each example, we'll look at the same code using ActionScript 2, which is very similar.
