[Extendflash] getCustomStroke() - Seems like serious bug

[Ibis Fernandez]

Hi Thomas,
 
Thanks it’s good to hear that I’m not going crazy hahaha,
 
In regards to your suggestion, I don’t think that would be a work around at
all because it just doesn’t work around it.
 
>>> fl.getDocumentDOM().setStrokeColor("#cc00cc");
>>> fl.getDocumentDOM().setStrokeStyle('solid');
 
Those, only affect the properties of a selected stroke on the stage, and
even when a stroke is actually selected the, color transformation and any
other properties passed to it only affect the selected outline. The value of
the color chip for the stroke in the toolbar, property inspector, and the
color mixer doesn’t change…
 
What needs to happen here is that the colors in the property inspector are
the ones that are changed… when these properties are changed anything else
that is selected on the stage, if any, will follow.

Hello:

Although there is a bug here, a viable workaround is:

fl.getDocumentDOM().setStrokeColor("#cc00cc");
fl.getDocumentDOM().setStrokeStyle('solid');

How did you submit the bug? Do you have a bug number? We are looking into
the problem and will make sure it gets fixed. I am not sure there is much of
a workaround here but if we find one, we will send it as well.

Yes I have, and it’s still buggy. I have also tried defining the alpha like
“#RRGGBBAA” and no luck

 

I have also tried defining the Toolbar and selection parameter and the only
thing that accomplishes is to lock up the other two panels properties and
color mixer to null and lock up the toolbar chip so that you can’t change
it. According to the new manual, leaving out the parameter applies the
setting to all selected items, the tool bard and the properties panel, which
is what I want.

 

If you try the very same function in flash mx 2004 it works perfectly fine.
(works in mx2004 perfectly).

 

I’m pretty sure this is a bug, I went ahead and submitted it, and hopefully
it can be looked at by someone at macromedia.

 

Note: this is snipplet that sets up a new color for the fill…

 

var fill = fl.getDocumentDOM().getCustomFill();

fill.style= "solid";

fill.color = "#CCCCCC";

fl.getDocumentDOM().setCustomFill(fill);

 

The snipplet for the stroke is exactly the same except for the the words
“fill” which are changed to “stroke”.

 

var stroke = fl.getDocumentDOM().getCustomStroke();

stroke.style= "solid";

stroke.color = "#CCCCCC";

fl.getDocumentDOM().setCustomStroke(stroke);

 

Both bits work perfectly fine in flash 7. But only the fill part works in
flash 8.

Sorry, I don't have time to test this at the moment, but have you tried
passing the color value as 0xCCCCCC instead? 

 

stroke.color
= 0xCCCCCC;

 

Perhaps they're expecting this format, and misinterpreting your string
version.
