[Port] Active Shape

I've had some free time so I decided to port Active Shape to Flash.
The port is almost complete.
It supports all shape and fill types, actions, conditions and expressions. Also, Semi-transparency, Add and Subtract ink effects, and the Semi-transparency effect for text.
The only bug I can think of is that the text is rendered a bit incorrectly, and it hides when the object is rotated.

See for yourself:

The flash version is on the left.

You can get the original object here.

Happy testing.

Thanks for this!

Polygons with only 2 points (Lines) are now rendered.

Thanks Looki, this will be very useful :)

I tested this with the standard example and that didn't seem to export but if starting a new project it works ok. :)

The edges in flash are so much nicer than in MMF so it makes be think MMF needs a new anti-aliasing filter or maybe a few modes available. I remember there was a discussion about this before though so hopefully clickteam will do that sometime.

Note - If someone reads this and your not sure what i am talking about, right click on that image and select 'View Image' and it will load it at a larger size. You can see the flash version looks much better due to it's anti-aliasing.

Oh, I wasn't aware of the example. How weird. It should work fine.

The collision is bugged when I resize the object.

Try resizing it to a larger size and have it bounce in the frame area. It's like the new size isn't taken into account in the collision mask.

Hu... collision shouldn't work *at all*, I haven't implemented it.

Thanks Looki :D

Oh please, do it! :D

It's not so easy. Unfortunately MMF uses bitmaps for all collisions but in this case we don't have any bitmaps!

Minor update: When the hotspot is changed, the shape stays in place.
I'll ask Francois about collision masks ;)

In the default SDK there is a function that asks if a pixel is transparent. I thought it used that one for collision detection as well.

Andos, yeah, I know how to do them in C++, but I'm lost in Flash.

Updated - hot spots are now 100% compatible with the EXE version. At least they should be.

very nice Looki, I did notice that the flash version (on the left) seems to smooth off the ellipses, don't know if you meant to do this, but it's great :D
Keep up the great work

Of course, it's because Flash renders shapes with anti-aliasing (If the quality is set to high).

You rock Looki. :) Its great to have guys like you and Andos around. You guys make most of my favorite extensions!

Thanks so much all you MMF extension makers. :)
