BitmapData (flash.display.BitmapData)
Object | +-flash.display.BitmapData public class BitmapData extends ObjectThe BitmapData class lets you create arbitrarily sized transparent or opaque bitmap images and manipulate them in various ways at runtime. This class lets you separate bitmap rendering operations from the Flash Player internal display updating routines. By manipulating a BitmapData object directly, you can create very complex images without incurring the per-frame overhead of constantly redrawing the content from vector data. The methods of the BitmapData class support a variety of effects that are not available through the generic filter interface. A BitmapData object contains an array of pixel data. This data can represent either a fully opaque bitmap or a transparent bitmap that contains alpha channel data. Either type of BitmapData object is stored as a buffer of 32-bit integers. Each 32-bit integer determines the properties of a single pixel in the bitmap. Each 32-bit integer is a combination of four 8-bit channel values (from 0 to 255) that describe the alpha transparency and the red, green, and blue (ARGB) values of the pixel. The four channels (red, green, blue, and alpha) are represented as numbers when you use them with the BitmapData.copyChannel() method or the DisplacementMapFilter.componentX and DisplacementMapFilter.componentY properties, as follows:
You can attach BitmapData objects to a MovieClip object by using the MovieClip.attachBitmap() method. You can use a BitmapData object to fill an area in a movie clip by using the MovieClip.beginBitmapFill() method. The maximum width and maximum height of a BitmapData object is 2880 pixels.

applyFilter (BitmapData.applyFilter method)public applyFilter(sourceBitmap:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, filter:BitmapFilter) : Number Takes a source image and a filter object and generates the filtered image. This method relies on the behavior of built-in filter objects, which have code to determine the destination rectangle that is affected by an input source rectangle. After a filter is applied, the resulting image can be larger than the input image. For example, if you use a BlurFilter class to blur a source rectangle of (50,50,100,100) and a destination point of (10,10), the area that changes in the destination image is larger than (10,10,60,60) because of the blurring. This happens internally during the applyFilter() call. If the sourceRect parameter of the sourceBitmapData parameter is an interior region, such as (50,50,100,100) in a 200 x 200 image, the filter uses the source pixels outside the sourceRect parameter to generate the destination rectangle. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData - The input bitmap image to use. The source image can be a different BitmapData object or it can refer to the current BitmapData instance. sourceRect:flash.geom.Rectangle - A rectangle that defines the area of the source image to use as input. destPoint:flash.geom.Point - The point within the destination image (the current BitmapData instance) that corresponds to the upper-left corner of the source rectangle. filter:flash.filters.BitmapFilter - The filter object that you use to perform the filtering operation. Each type of filter has certain requirements, as follows:
Returns Number - A number that indicates whether the filter was applied successfully. If 0 is returned, the filter was applied successfully. If a negative number is returned, an error occurred during the application of the filter. Example The following example shows how to apply a bevel filter to a BitmapData instance: import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.filters.BevelFilter; import flash.geom.Point; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, true, 0xCCCCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var filter:BevelFilter = new BevelFilter(5, 45, 0xFFFF00, .8, 0x0000FF, .8, 20, 20, 1, 3, "inner", false); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.applyFilter(myBitmapData, myBitmapData.rectangle, new Point(0, 0), filter); }See also BevelFilter (flash.filters.BevelFilter), BlurFilter (flash.filters.BlurFilter), ColorMatrixFilter (flash.filters.ColorMatrixFilter), ConvolutionFilter (flash.filters.ConvolutionFilter), DisplacementMapFilter (flash.filters.DisplacementMapFilter), DropShadowFilter (flash.filters.DropShadowFilter), GlowFilter (flash.filters.GlowFilter), filters (MovieClip.filters property) BitmapData constructorpublic BitmapData(width:Number, height:Number, [transparent:Boolean], [fillColor:Number]) Creates a BitmapData object with a specified width and height. If you specify a value for the fillColor parameter, every pixel in the bitmap is set to that color. By default, the bitmap is created as opaque, unless you pass the value true for the transparent parameter. Once you create an opaque bitmap, you cannot change it to a transparent bitmap. Every pixel in an opaque bitmap uses only 24 bits of color channel information. If you define the bitmap as transparent, every pixel uses 32 bits of color channel information, including an alpha transparency channel. The maximum width and maximum height of a BitmapData object is 2880 pixels. If you specify a width or height value that is greater than 2880, a new instance is not created. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters width:Number - The width of the bitmap image in pixels. height:Number - The height of the bitmap image in pixels. transparent:Boolean [optional] - Specifies whether the bitmap image supports per-pixel transparency. The default value is true (transparent). To create a fully transparent bitmap set the value of the TRansparent parameter to true and the value of the fillColor parameter to 0x00000000 (or to 0). fillColor:Number [optional] - A 32-bit ARGB color value that you use to fill the bitmap image area. The default value is 0xFFFFFFFF (solid white). Example The following example creates a new BitmapData object. The values in this example are the default values for the TRansparent and fillColor parameters; you could call the constructor without these parameters and get the same result. import flash.display.BitmapData; var width:Number = 100; var height:Number = 80; var transparent:Boolean = true; var fillColor:Number = 0xFFFFFFFF; var bitmap_1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(width, height, transparent, fillColor); trace(bitmap_1.width); // 100 trace(bitmap_1.height); // 80 trace(bitmap_1.transparent); // true var bitmap_2:BitmapData = new BitmapData(width, height); trace(bitmap_2.width); // 100 trace(bitmap_2.height); // 80 trace(bitmap_2.transparent); // true clone (BitmapData.clone method)public clone() : BitmapData Returns a new BitmapData object that is a clone of the original instance with an exact copy of the contained bitmap. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Returns flash.display.BitmapData - A new BitmapData object that is identical to the original. Example The following example creates three BitmapData objects and compares them. You can create the bitmap_1 instance by using the BitmapData constructor. You create the bitmap_2 instance by setting it equal to bitmap_1. You create he clonedBitmap instance by cloning bitmap_1. Notice that although bitmap_2 evaluates as being equal to bitmap_1, clonedBitmap does not, even though it contains the same values as bitmap_1. import flash.display.BitmapData; var bitmap_1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x000000); var bitmap_2:BitmapData = bitmap_1; var clonedBitmap:BitmapData = bitmap_1.clone(); trace(bitmap_1 == bitmap_2); // true trace(bitmap_1 == clonedBitmap); // false for(var i in bitmap_1) { trace(">> " + i + ": " + bitmap_1[i]); // >> generateFilterRect: [type Function] // >> dispose: [type Function] // >> clone: [type Function] // >> copyChannel: [type Function] // >> noise: [type Function] // >> merge: [type Function] // >> paletteMap: [type Function] // >> hitTest: [type Function] // >> colorTransform: [type Function] // >> perlinNoise: [type Function] // >> getColorBoundsRect: [type Function] // >> floodFill: [type Function] // >> setPixel32: [type Function] // >> getPixel32: [type Function] // >> pixelDissolve: [type Function] // >> draw: [type Function] // >> threshold: [type Function] // >> scroll: [type Function] // >> applyFilter: [type Function] // >> copyPixels: [type Function] // >> fillRect: [type Function] // >> setPixel: [type Function] // >> getPixel: [type Function] // >> transparent: false // >> rectangle: (x=0, y=0, w=100, h=80) // >> height: 80 // >> width: 100 } for(var i in clonedBitmap) { trace(">> " + i + ": " + clonedBitmap[i]); // >> generateFilterRect: [type Function] // >> dispose: [type Function] // >> clone: [type Function] // >> copyChannel: [type Function] // >> noise: [type Function] // >> merge: [type Function] // >> paletteMap: [type Function] // >> hitTest: [type Function] // >> colorTransform: [type Function] // >> perlinNoise: [type Function] // >> getColorBoundsRect: [type Function] // >> floodFill: [type Function] // >> setPixel32: [type Function] // >> getPixel32: [type Function] // >> pixelDissolve: [type Function] // >> draw: [type Function] // >> threshold: [type Function] // >> scroll: [type Function] // >> applyFilter: [type Function] // >> copyPixels: [type Function] // >> fillRect: [type Function] // >> setPixel: [type Function] // >> getPixel: [type Function] // >> transparent: false // >> rectangle: (x=0, y=0, w=100, h=80) // >> height: 80 // >> width: 100 }To further demonstrate the relationships between bitmap_1, bitmap_2, and clonedBitmap the following example modifies the pixel value at (1, 1) of bitmap_1. Modifying pixel value at (1, 1) demonstrates that the clone() method creates an instance based on values of the bitmap_1 instance instead instead of refering to the values. import flash.display.BitmapData; var bitmap_1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x000000); var bitmap_2:BitmapData = bitmap_1; var clonedBitmap:BitmapData = bitmap_1.clone(); trace(bitmap_1.getPixel32(1, 1)); // -16777216 trace(bitmap_2.getPixel32(1, 1)); // -16777216 trace(clonedBitmap.getPixel32(1, 1)); // -16777216 bitmap_1.setPixel32(1, 1, 0xFFFFFF); trace(bitmap_1.getPixel32(1, 1)); // -1 trace(bitmap_2.getPixel32(1, 1)); // -1 trace(clonedBitmap.getPixel32(1, 1)); // -16777216 colorTransform (BitmapData.colorTransform method)public colorTransform(rect:Rectangle, colorTransform:ColorTransform) : Void Adjusts the color values in a specified area of a bitmap image by using a ColorTransform object. If the rectangle matches the boundaries of the bitmap image, this method transforms the color values of the entire image. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters rect:flash.geom.Rectangle - A Rectangle object that defines the area of the image in which the ColorTransform object is applied. colorTransform:flash.geom.ColorTransform - A ColorTransform object that describes the color transformation values to apply. Example The following example shows how to apply a color transform operation to a BitmapData instance. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.ColorTransform; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.colorTransform(myBitmapData.rectangle, new ColorTransform(1, 0, 0, 1, 255, 0, 0, 0)); }See also ColorTransform (flash.geom.ColorTransform), Rectangle (flash.geom.Rectangle) copyChannel (BitmapData.copyChannel method)public copyChannel(sourceBitmap:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, sourceChannel:Number, destChannel:Number) : Void Transfers data from one channel of another BitmapData object or the current BitmapData object into a channel of the current BitmapData object. All of the data in the other channels in the destination BitmapData object are preserved. The source channel value and destination channel value can be one of following values or a sum of any of the values:
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData - The input bitmap image to use. The source image can be a different BitmapData object or it can refer to the current BitmapData object. sourceRect:flash.geom.Rectangle - The source Rectangle object. If you only want to copy channel data from a smaller area within the bitmap, specify a source rectangle that is smaller than the overall size of the BitmapData object. destPoint:flash.geom.Point - The destination Point object that represents the upper-left corner of the rectangular area where the new channel data is placed. If you want to copy channel data from one area to a different area in the destination image, specify a point other than (0,0). sourceChannel:Number - The source channel. Use a value from the set (1,2,4,8), which represent red, green, blue, and alpha channels, respectively, or a sum of any of the values. destChannel:Number - The destination channel. Use a value from the set (1,2,4,8), which represent red, green, blue, and alpha channels, respectively, or a sum of any of the values. Example The following example shows how to copy a source ARGB channel from a BitmapData object back onto itself at a different location: import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; import flash.geom.Point; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.copyChannel(myBitmapData, new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 80), new Point(51, 0), 3, 1); }See also Rectangle (flash.geom.Rectangle) copyPixels (BitmapData.copyPixels method)public copyPixels(sourceBitmap:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, [alphaBitmap:BitmapData], [alphaPoint:Point], [mergeAlpha:Boolean]) : Void Provides a fast routine to perform pixel manipulation between images with no stretching, rotation, or color effects. This method copies a rectangular area of a source image to a rectangular area of the same size at the destination point of the destination BitmapData object. If include the alphaBitmap and alphaPoint parameters, you can use a secondary image as an alpha source for the source image. If the source image has alpha data, both sets of alpha data are used to composite pixels from the source image to the destination image. The alphaPoint parameter is the point in the alpha image that corresponds to the upper-left corner of the source rectangle. Any pixels outside the intersection of the source image and alpha image are not copied to the destination image. The mergeAlpha property controls whether or not the alpha channel is used when a transparent image is copied onto another transparent image. To simply copy pixels (with no alpha used), set the mergeAlpha property to false. Then all pixels are copied from source to destination. By default, the mergeAlpha property is TRue. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData - The input bitmap image from which to copy pixels. The source image can be a different BitmapData instance, or it can refer to the current BitmapData instance. sourceRect:flash.geom.Rectangle - A rectangle that defines the area of the source image to use as input. destPoint:flash.geom.Point - The destination point, that represents the upper-left corner of the rectangular area where the new pixels are placed. alphaBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData [optional] - A secondary, alpha BitmapData object source. alphaPoint:flash.geom.Point [optional] - The point in the alpha BitmapData object source that corresponds to the upper-left corner of the sourceRect parameter. mergeAlpha:Boolean [optional] - A Boolean value:To use the alpha channel, set the value to TRue. To copy pixels with no alpha channel, set the value to false. Example The following example shows how to copy pixels from one BitmapData instance to another. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; import flash.geom.Point; var bitmapData_1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var bitmapData_2:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00FF0000); var mc_1:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_1.attachBitmap(bitmapData_1, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var mc_2:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_2.attachBitmap(bitmapData_2, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_2._x = 101; mc_1.onPress = function() { bitmapData_2.copyPixels(bitmapData_1, new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 80), new Point(51, 0)); } mc_2.onPress = function() { bitmapData_1.copyPixels(bitmapData_2, new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 80), new Point(51, 0)); }dispose (BitmapData.dispose method)public dispose() : Void Frees memory that is used to store the BitmapData object. When this method is called on an image, the width and height of the image are set to 0. After a BitmapData object's memory has been freed, method and property access calls on the instance fail, returning a value of -1. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Example The following example shows how to release the memory of a BitmapData instance, which results in a cleared instance. import flash.display.BitmapData; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.dispose(); trace(myBitmapData.width); // -1 trace(myBitmapData.height); // -1 trace(myBitmapData.transparent); // -1 }draw (BitmapData.draw method)public draw(source:Object, [matrix:Matrix], [colorTransform:ColorTransform], [blendMode:Object], [clipRect:Rectangle], [smooth:Boolean]) : Void Draws a source image or movie clip onto a destination image, using the Flash Player vector renderer. You can use Matrix, ColorTransform, BlendMode objects, and a destination Rectangle object to control how the rendering performs. Optionally, you can specify whether the bitmap should be smoothed when scaled. This works only if the source object is a BitmapData object. This method directly corresponds to how objects are drawn using the standard vector renderer for objects in the authoring tool interface. A source MovieClip object does not use any of its on-stage transformations for this call. It is treated as it exists in the library or file, with no matrix transform, no color transform, and no blend mode. If you want to draw the movie clip by using its own transform properties, you can use its Transform object to pass the various transformation properties. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters source:Object - The BitmapData object to draw. matrix:flash.geom.Matrix [optional] - A Matrix object used to scale, rotate, or translate the coordinates of the bitmap. If no object is supplied, the bitmap image will not be transformed. Set this parameter to an identity matrix, created using the default new Matrix() constructor, if you must pass this parameter but you do not want to transform the image. colorTransform:flash.geom.ColorTransform [optional] - A ColorTransform object that you use to adjust the color values of the bitmap. If no object is supplied, the bitmap image's colors will not be transformed. Set this parameter to a ColorTransform object created using the default new ColorTransform() constructor, if you must pass this parameter but you do not want to transform the image. blendMode:Object [optional] - A BlendMode object. clipRect:flash.geom.Rectangle [optional] - A Rectangle object. If you do not supply this value, no clipping occurs. smooth:Boolean [optional] - A Boolean value that determines whether a BitmapData object is smoothed when scaled. The default value is false. Example The following example shows how to draw from a source MovieClip instance to a BitmapData object. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; import flash.geom.Matrix; import flash.geom.ColorTransform; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc_1:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_1.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var mc_2:MovieClip = createRectangle(50, 40, 0xFF0000); mc_2._x = 101; var myMatrix:Matrix = new Matrix(); myMatrix.rotate(Math.PI/2); var translateMatrix:Matrix = new Matrix(); translateMatrix.translate(70, 15); myMatrix.concat(translateMatrix); var myColorTransform:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform(0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 255, 0); var blendMode:String = "normal"; var myRectangle:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, 100, 80); var smooth:Boolean = true; mc_1.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.draw(mc_2, myMatrix, myColorTransform, blendMode, myRectangle, smooth); } function createRectangle(width:Number, height:Number, color:Number):MovieClip { var depth:Number = this.getNextHighestDepth(); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc_" + depth, depth); mc.beginFill(color); mc.lineTo(0, height); mc.lineTo(width, height); mc.lineTo(width, 0); mc.lineTo(0, 0); return mc; }fillRect (BitmapData.fillRect method)public fillRect(rect:Rectangle, color:Number) : Void Fills a rectangular area of pixels with a specified ARGB color. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters rect:flash.geom.Rectangle - The rectangular area to fill. color:Number - The ARGB color value that fills the area. ARGB colors are often specified in hexadecimal format; for example, 0xFF336699. Example The following example shows how to fill an area that is defined by a Rectangle within a BitmapData with a color. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.fillRect(new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 40), 0x00FF0000); }See also Rectangle (flash.geom.Rectangle) floodFill (BitmapData.floodFill method)public floodFill(x:Number, y:Number, color:Number) : Void Performs a flood fill operation on an image starting at an (x, y) coordinate and filling with a certain color. The floodFill() method is similar to the paint bucket tool in various painting programs. The color is an ARGB color that contains alpha information and color information. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters x:Number - The x coordinate of the image. y:Number - The y coordinate of the image. color:Number - The ARGB color to use as a fill. ARGB colors are often specified in hexadecimal format, like 0xFF336699. Example The following example shows how to apply a flood fill a color into to an image starting at the point where a user clicks the mouse within a BitmapData object. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); myBitmapData.fillRect(new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 40), 0x00FF0000); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.floodFill(_xmouse, _ymouse, 0x000000FF); }generateFilterRect (BitmapData.generateFilterRect method)public generateFilterRect(sourceRect:Rectangle, filter:BitmapFilter) : Rectangle Determines the destination rectangle that the applyFilter() method call affects, given a BitmapData object, a source rectangle, and a filter object. For example, a blur filter normally affects an area larger than the size of the original image. A 100 x 200 pixel image that is being filtered by a default BlurFilter instance, where blurX = blurY = 4 generates a destination rectangle of (-2,-2,104,204). The generateFilterRect() method lets you find out the size of this destination rectangle in advance so that you can size the destination image appropriately before performing a filter operation. Some filters clip their destination rectangle based on the source image size. For example, an inner DropShadow does not generate a larger result than its source image. In this API, the BitmapData object is used as the source bounds and not the source rect parameter. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceRect:flash.geom.Rectangle - A rectangle defining the area of the source image to use as input. filter:flash.filters.BitmapFilter - A filter object that you use to calculate the destination rectangle. Returns flash.geom.Rectangle - A destination rectangle computed by using an image, the sourceRect parameter, and a filter. Example The following example shows how to determine the destination rectangle that the applyfilter() method affects: import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.filters.BevelFilter; import flash.geom.Rectangle; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, true, 0xCCCCCCCC); var filter:BevelFilter = new BevelFilter(5, 45, 0xFFFF00, .8, 0x0000FF, .8, 20, 20, 1, 3, "outter", false); var filterRect:Rectangle = myBitmapData.generateFilterRect(myBitmapData.rectangle, filter); trace(filterRect); // (x=-31, y=-31, w=162, h=142) getColorBoundsRect (BitmapData.getColorBoundsRect method)public getColorBoundsRect(mask:Number, color:Number, [findColor:Boolean]) : Rectangle Determines a rectangular region that fully encloses all pixels of a specified color within the bitmap image. For example, if you have a source image and you want to determine the rectangle of the image that contains a nonzero alpha channel, you pass {mask: 0xFF000000, color: 0x00000000} as parameters. The entire image is searched for the bounds of pixels whose (value & mask) != color. To determine white space around an image, you pass {mask: 0xFFFFFFFF, color: 0xFFFFFFFF} to find the bounds of nonwhite pixels. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters mask:Number - A hexadecimal color value. color:Number - A hexadecimal color value. findColor:Boolean [optional] - If the value is set to TRue, returns the bounds of a color value in an image. If the value is set to false, returns the bounds of where this color doesn't exist in an image. The default value is TRue. Returns flash.geom.Rectangle - The region of the image that is the specified color. Example The following example shows how to determine a rectangular region that fully encloses all pixels of a specified color within the bitmap image: import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); myBitmapData.fillRect(new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 40), 0x00FF0000); mc.onPress = function() { var colorBoundsRect:Rectangle = myBitmapData.getColorBoundsRect(0x00FFFFFF, 0x00FF0000, true); trace(colorBoundsRect); // (x=0, y=0, w=50, h=40) }getPixel (BitmapData.getPixel method)public getPixel(x:Number, y:Number) : Number Returns an integer that reresents an RGB pixel value from a BitmapData object at a specific point (x, y). The getPixel() method returns an unmultiplied pixel value. No alpha information is returned. All pixels in a BitmapData object are stored as premultiplied color values. A premultiplied image pixel has the red, green, and blue color channel values already multiplied by the alpha data. For example, if the alpha value is 0, the values for the RGB channels are also 0, independent of their unmultiplied values. This loss of data can cause some problems when you are performing operations. All Flash Player methods take and return unmultiplied values. The internal pixel representation is unmultiplied before it is returned as a value. During a set operation, the pixel value is premultiplied before setting the raw image pixel. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters x:Number - The x position of the pixel. y:Number - The y position of the pixel. Returns Number - A number that represents an RGB pixel value. If the (x, y) coordinates are outside the bounds of the image, 0 is returned. Example The following example uses the getPixel() method to retrieve the RGB value of a pixel at a specific x and y position. import flash.display.BitmapData; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); trace("0x" + myBitmapData.getPixel(0, 0).toString(16)); // 0xccccccSee also getPixel32 (BitmapData.getPixel32 method) getPixel32 (BitmapData.getPixel32 method)public getPixel32(x:Number, y:Number) : Number Returns an ARGB color value that contains alpha channel data and RGB data. This method is similar to the getPixel() method, which returns an RGB color without alpha channel data. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters x:Number - The x position of the pixel. y:Number - The y position of the pixel. Returns Number - A number that represent an ARGB pixel value. If the (x, y) coordinates are outside the bounds of the image, 0 is returned. If the bitmap was created as an opaque bitmap and not a transparent one, then this method will return an error code of -1. Example The following example uses the getPixel32() method to retrieve the ARGB value of a pixel at a specific x and y position: import flash.display.BitmapData; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, true, 0xFFAACCEE); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var alpha:String = (myBitmapData.getPixel32(0, 0) >> 24 & 0xFF).toString(16); trace(">> alpha: " + alpha); // ff var red:String = (myBitmapData.getPixel32(0, 0) >> 16 & 0xFF).toString(16); trace(">> red: " + red); // aa var green:String = (myBitmapData.getPixel32(0, 0) >> 8 & 0xFF).toString(16); trace(">> green: " + green); // cc var blue:String = (myBitmapData.getPixel32(0, 0) & 0xFF).toString(16); trace(">> blue: " + blue); // ee trace("0x" + alpha + red + green + blue); // 0xffaacceeSee also getPixel (BitmapData.getPixel method) height (BitmapData.height property)public height : Number [read-only] The height of the bitmap image in pixels. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Example The following example shows that the height property of the BitmapData instance is read-only by trying to set it and failing: import flash.display.BitmapData; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); trace(myBitmapData.height); // 80 myBitmapData.height = 999; trace(myBitmapData.height); // 80hitTest (BitmapData.hitTest method)public hitTest(firstPoint:Point, firstAlphaThreshold:Number, secondObject:Object, [secondBitmapPoint:Point], [secondAlphaThreshold:Number]) : Boolean Performs pixel-level hit detection between one bitmap image and a point, rectangle or other bitmap image. No stretching, rotation, or other transformation of either object is considered when doing the hit test. If an image is an opaque image, it is considered a fully opaque rectangle for this method. Both images must be transparent images to perform pixel-level hit testing that considers transparency. When you are testing two transparent images, the alpha threshold parameters control what alpha channel values, from 0 to 255, are considered opaque. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters firstPoint:flash.geom.Point - A point that defines a pixel location in the current BitmapData instance. firstAlphaThreshold:Number - The highest alpha channel value that is considered opaque for this hit test. secondObject:Object - A Rectangle, Point, or BitmapData object. secondBitmapPoint:flash.geom.Point [optional] - A point that defines a pixel location in the second BitmapData object. Use this parameter only when the value of secondObject is a BitmapData object. secondAlphaThreshold:Number [optional] - The highest alpha channel value that is considered opaque in the second BitmapData object. Use this parameter only when the value of secondObject is a BitmapData object and both BitmapData objects are transparent. Returns Boolean - A Boolean value. If there is a hit, returns a value of true; otherwise, false. Example The following example shows how to determine if a BitmapData object is colliding with a MovieClip. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Point; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc_1:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_1.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var mc_2:MovieClip = createRectangle(20, 20, 0xFF0000); var destPoint:Point = new Point(myBitmapData.rectangle.x, myBitmapData.rectangle.y); var currPoint:Point = new Point(); mc_1.onEnterFrame = function() { currPoint.x = mc_2._x; currPoint.y = mc_2._y; if(myBitmapData.hitTest(destPoint, 255, currPoint)) { trace(">> Collision at x:" + currPoint.x + " and y:" + currPoint.y); } } mc_2.startDrag(true); function createRectangle(width:Number, height:Number, color:Number):MovieClip { var depth:Number = this.getNextHighestDepth(); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc_" + depth, depth); mc.beginFill(color); mc.lineTo(0, height); mc.lineTo(width, height); mc.lineTo(width, 0); mc.lineTo(0, 0); return mc; }loadBitmap (BitmapData.loadBitmap method)public static loadBitmap(id:String) : BitmapData Returns a new BitmapData object that contains a bitmap image representation of the symbol that is identified by a specified linkage ID in the library. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters id:String - A linkage ID of a symbol in the library. Returns flash.display.BitmapData - A bitmap image representation of the symbol. Example The following example loads a bitmap with the linkageId libraryBitmap from your library. You must attach it to a MovieClip object to give it a visual representation. import flash.display.BitmapData; var linkageId:String = "libraryBitmap"; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap(linkageId); trace(myBitmapData instanceof BitmapData); // true var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth());merge (BitmapData.merge method)public merge(sourceBitmap:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, redMult:Number, greenMult:Number, blueMult:Number, alphaMult:Number) : Void Performs per-channel blending from a source image to a destination image. The following formula is used for each channel: new red dest = (red source * redMult) + (red dest * (256 - redMult) / 256; The redMult, greenMult, blueMult, and alphaMult values are the multipliers used for each color channel. Their valid range is from 0 to 256. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData - The input bitmap image to use.

You can use the logical OR operator | to combine channel values. The default value is (1 | 2 | 4). grayScale:Boolean [optional] - A Boolean value. If the value is true, a grayscale image is created by setting all of the color channels to the same value. The alpha channel selection is not affected by setting this parameter to true. The default value is false. Example The following example shows how to apply pixel noise to a BitmapData object for both a color and black-and-white bitmap. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; import flash.geom.Point; var bitmapData_1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var bitmapData_2:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00FF0000); var mc_1:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_1.attachBitmap(bitmapData_1, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var mc_2:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_2.attachBitmap(bitmapData_2, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_2._x = 101; mc_1.onPress = function() { bitmapData_1.merge(bitmapData_2, new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 40), new Point(25, 20), 128, 0, 0, 0); } mc_1.onPress = function() { bitmapData_1.noise(128, 0, 255, 1, true); } mc_2.onPress = function() { bitmapData_2.noise(128); }paletteMap (BitmapData.paletteMap method)public paletteMap(sourceBitmap:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, [redArray:Array], [greenArray:Array], [blueArray:Array], [alphaArray:Array]) : Void Remaps the color channel values in an image that has up to four arrays of color palette data, one for each channel. Flash Player uses the following formula to generate the resulting image. After the red, green, blue, and alpha values are computed, they are added together using standard 32-bit-integer arithmetic. The red, green, blue, and alpha channel values of each pixel are is extracted into a separate 0 to 255 value. These values are used to look up new color values in the appropriate array: redArray, greenArray, blueArray, and alphaArray. Each of these four arrays should contain 256 values. After all four of the new channel values are retrieved, they are combined into a standard ARGB value, which is applied to the pixel. Cross-channel effects can be supported with this method. Each input array can contain full 32-bit values, and there is no shifting when the values are added together. This routine does not support per-channel clamping. If no array is specified for a channel, the color channel is simply copied from the source image to the destination image. You can use this method for a variety of effects such as general palette mapping (taking one channel and converting it to a false color image). You can also use this method for a variety of advanced color manipulation algorithms, such as gamma, curves, levels, and quantizing. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData - The input bitmap image to use. The source image can be a different BitmapData object, or it can refer to the current BitmapData object. sourceRect:flash.geom.Rectangle - A rectangle that defines the area of the source image to use as input. destPoint:flash.geom.Point - The point within the destination image (the current BitmapData object) that corresponds to upper-left corner of the source rectangle. redArray:Array [optional] - If redArray is not null, red = redArray[source red value] else red = source rect value. greenArray:Array [optional] - If greenArray is not null, green = greenArray[source green value] else green = source green value. blueArray:Array [optional] - If blueArray is not null, blue = blueArray[source blue value] else blue = source blue value. alphaArray:Array [optional] - If alphaArray is not null, alpha = alphaArray[source alpha value] else alpha = source alpha value. Example The following example shows how to use a palette map to convert solid red to green, and solid green to red in a single BitmapData object. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; import flash.geom.Point; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00FF0000); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); myBitmapData.fillRect(new Rectangle(51, 0, 50, 80), 0x0000FF00); mc.onPress = function() { var redArray:Array = new Array(256); var greenArray:Array = new Array(256); for(var i = 0; i < 255; i++) { redArray[i] = 0x00000000; greenArray[i] = 0x00000000; } redArray[0xFF] = 0x0000FF00; greenArray[0xFF] = 0x00FF0000; myBitmapData.paletteMap(myBitmapData, new Rectangle(0, 0, 100, 40), new Point(0, 0), redArray, greenArray, null, null); }perlinNoise (BitmapData.perlinNoise method)public perlinNoise(baseX:Number, baseY:Number, numOctaves:Number, randomSeed:Number, stitch:Boolean, fractalNoise:Boolean, [channelOptions:Number], [grayScale:Boolean], [offsets:Object]) : Void Generates a Perlin noise image. The Perlin noise generation algorithm interpolates and combines individual random noise functions (called octaves) into a single function that generates more natural-seeming random noise. Like musical octaves, each octave function is twice the frequency of the one before it. Perlin noise has been described as a "fractal sum of noise" because it combines multiple sets of noise data with different levels of detail. You can use Perlin noise functions to simulate natural phenomena and landscapes, such as wood grain, clouds, and mountain ranges. In most cases, the output of a Perlin noise function is not displayed directly but is used to enhance other images and give them pseudo-random variations. Simple digital random noise functions often produce images with harsh, contrasting points. This kind of harsh contrast is not often found in nature. The Perlin noise algorithm blends multiple noise functions that operate at different levels of detail. This algorithm results in smaller variations among neighboring pixel values. Note The Perlin noise algorithm is named for Ken Perlin, who developed it after generating computer graphics for the 1982 film Tron. Perlin received an Academy Award for Technical Achievement for the Perlin Noise function in 1997. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters baseX:Number - Frequency to use in the x direction. For example, to generate a noise that is sized for a 64 x 128 image, pass 64 for the baseX value. baseY:Number - Frequency to use in the y direction. For example, to generate a noise that is sized for a 64 x 128 image, pass 128 for the baseY value. numOctaves:Number - Number of octaves or individual noise functions to combine to create this noise. Larger numbers of octaves create images with greater detail. Larger numbers of octaves also require more processing time. randomSeed:Number - The random seed number to use. If you keep all other parameters the same, you can generate different pseudo-random results by varying the random seed value. The Perlin noise function is a mapping function, not a true random-number generation function, so it creates the same results each time from the same random seed. stitch:Boolean - A Boolean value. If the value is true, the method attempts to smooth the transition edges of the image to create seamless textures for tiling as a bitmap fill. fractalNoise:Boolean - A Boolean value. If the value is TRue, the method generates fractal noise; otherwise, it generates turbulence. An image with turbulence has visible discontinuities in the gradient that can make it better approximate sharper visual effects, like flames and ocean waves. channelOptions:Number [optional] - A number that indicates one or more color channels. To create this value, you can use or combine any of the four color channel values: 1 (red), 2 (green), 4 (blue), and 8 (alpha). You can combine the channel values by using the logical OR operator; for example, you can combine the red and green channels by using the following code: 1 | 2. grayScale:Boolean [optional] - A Boolean value. If the value is true, a grayscale image is created by setting each of the red, green, and blue color channels to identical values. The alpha channel value is not affected if this value is set to true. The default value is false. offsets:Object [optional] - An array of points that correspond to x and y offsets for each octave. By manipulating the offset values you can smoothly scroll the layers of a perlinNoise image. Each point in the offset array affects a specific octave noise function. Example The following example shows how to apply Perlin noise to to a BitmapData object. import flash.display.BitmapData; var bitmapData_1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var bitmapData_2:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00FF0000); var mc_1:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_1.attachBitmap(bitmapData_1, this.getNextHighestDepth()); var mc_2:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_2.attachBitmap(bitmapData_2, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc_2._x = 101; mc_1.onPress = function() { var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10); bitmapData_1.perlinNoise(100, 80, 6, randomNum, false, true, 1, true, null); } mc_2.onPress = function() { var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10); bitmapData_2.perlinNoise(100, 80, 4, randomNum, false, false, 15, false, null); }pixelDissolve (BitmapData.pixelDissolve method)public pixelDissolve(sourceBitmap:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, [randomSeed:Number], [numberOfPixels:Number], [fillColor:Number]) : Number Performs a pixel dissolve either from a source image to a destination image or by using the same image. Flash Player uses a randomSeed value to generate a random pixel dissolve. The return value of the function must be passed in on subsequent calls to continue the pixel dissolve until it is finished. If the source image does not equal the destination image, pixels are copied from the source to the destination using all of the properties. This allows dissolving from a blank image into a fully populated image. If the source and destination images are equal, pixels are filled with the color parameter. This allows dissolving away from a fully populated image. In this mode, the destination point parameter is ignored. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters sourceBitmap:flash.display.BitmapData - The input bitmap image to use. The source image can be a different BitmapData object or it can refer to the current BitmapData instance. sourceRect:flash.geom.Rectangle - A rectangle that defines the area of the source image to use as input. destPoint:flash.geom.Point - The point within the destination image (the current BitmapData instance) that corresponds to the upper-left corner of the source rectangle. randomSeed:Number [optional] - The random seed to use to start the pixel dissolve. The default value is 0. numberOfPixels:Number [optional] - The default is 1/30 of the source area (width x height). fillColor:Number [optional] - An ARGB color value that you use to fill pixels whose source value equals its destination value. The default value is 0. Returns Number - The new random seed value to use for subsequent calls. Example The following example uses pixelDissolve() to convert a grey BitmapData object to a red one by dissolving 40 pixels at a time until all 8000 pixels have changed colors: import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Point; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.onPress = function() { var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10); dissolve(randomNum); } var intervalId:Number; var totalDissolved:Number = 0; var totalPixels:Number = 8000; function dissolve(randomNum:Number) { var newNum:Number = myBitmapData.pixelDissolve(myBitmapData, myBitmapData.rectangle, new Point(0, 0), randomNum, 40, 0x00FF0000); clearInterval(intervalId); if(totalDissolved < totalPixels) { intervalId = setInterval(dissolve, 10, newNum); } totalDissolved += 40; }rectangle (BitmapData.rectangle property)public rectangle : Rectangle [read-only] The rectangle that defines the size and location of the bitmap image.

Edge regions outside the scrolling area are left unchanged. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters x:Number - The amount by which to scroll horizontally. y:Number - The amount by which to scroll vertically. Example The following example shows how to scroll a BitmapData object. import flash.display.BitmapData; import flash.geom.Rectangle; var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 80, false, 0x00CCCCCC); var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth()); mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, this.getNextHighestDepth()); myBitmapData.fillRect(new Rectangle(0, 0, 25, 80), 0x00FF0000); mc.onPress = function() { myBitmapData.scroll(25, 0); }setPixel (BitmapData.setPixel method)public setPixel(x:Number, y:Number, color:Number) : Void Sets the color of a single pixel of a BitmapData object. The current alpha channel value of the image pixel is preserved during this operation. The value of the RGB color parameter is treated as an unmultiplied color value. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters x:Number - The x position of the pixel whose value changes. y:Number - The y position of the pixel whose value changes. color:Number - The RGB color to which to set the pixel.

This method is similar to the setPixel() method; the main difference is that the setPixel32() method takes an ARGB color value that contains alpha channel information. Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8 Parameters x:Number - The x position of the pixel whose value changes. y:Number - The y position of the pixel whose value changes. color:Number - The ARGB color to which to set the pixel. If you created an opaque (not a transparent) bitmap, the alpha transparency portion of this color value is ignored.

Using the threshold() method, you can isolate and replace color ranges in an image and perform other logical operations on image pixels. The threshold test's logic is as follows: if ((pixelValue & mask) operation (threshold & mask)) then set pixel to color else if (copySource) then set pixel to corresponding pixel value from sourceBitmap The operation parameter specifies the comparison operator to use for the threshold test. For example, by using "==", you can isolate a specific color value in an image. Or by using {operation: "<", mask: 0xFF000000, threshold: 0x7f000000, color: 0x00000000}, you can set all destination pixels to be fully transparent when the source image pixel's alpha is less than 0x7F.
