transform single channel of BitmapData object

I have a BitmapData object with an alpha channel. I'd like to know the fastet way to offset that alpha channel in ActionScript3 (FlashPlayer10). By offsetting I mean shifting all pixels of that channel in one direction (wrapping around the image borders) while leaving the color channels as they were. Is there a good way to apply a such ...

Actionscript BlurFilter wrap around

I'm using the standard ActionScript blur filter to blur an image. The image will later be used as a texture map on a cylinder, i.e. it's left and right edges will meet in 3D. This looks bad because the blur filter has discontinuities at the image edges. I'd like to set it so it'll wrap around the image so that instead of truncating the f...

circular colorTransform

Is there a way to apply a colorTransform to a BitmapData in a circle rather than in a rectangle? Instead of erasing rectangular parts of an image by reducing the alpha channel as in the code below, I'd like to do it in circles. _bitmap.colorTransform(new Rectangle(mouseX-d/2, mouseY-d/2, d, d), new ColorTransform(1, 1, 1, .5, 0, 0, 0...

I'm fading out a Bitmap in AS3 by repeatedly applying a ColorTransform every frame to its BitmapData; _bitmap.colorTransform(_bitmap.rect, new ColorTransform(1, 1, 1, .9, 0, 0, 0, 1)); When applying the apparent reverse to fade it back in I get a discoloured image. _bitmap.colorTransform(_bitmap.rect, new ColorTransform(1, 1, 1, 1.1...

How can I copy a masked bitmap maintaining the masking transparency in actionscript?

Hi all - I need to find a way to copy a masked bitmap. I have a bitmap on stage, and a user drawn sprite that acts as a mask.

Why HBITMAP use so little memory ?

Hi, I met an interesting question: load a big (4500x6000) jpeg into memory (RGBRGBRGB....) by libjpeg (cost about 200M memory) CreateDIBitmap() to create a HBITMAP from the data free the memory used now I found that the process use only 5M memory at all.

How can I accurately draw my rotated bitmap?

Hi - I have a container with masked bitmap in it. The scale and rotation of this container changes at runtime, and I need to draw the masked bitmap but cannot figure out the appropriate matrix calculations to do so. My code works correctly to reflect position, scale, offset for centering without rotation. When rotated, the angle is cor...
