Download Image Using "Save As" Dialogue Box
I've been searching this site and others all day for how to do this.

I'm looking at the "Save As" javascript example .fla that is on this site, but it only works if you're loading your images dynamically. I have an image that I want the user to save by clicking on it. When I use the getURL statement, the image just opens in a new browser window.

Is there a way to use javascript or something to cause IE to bring up the "Save As..." dialogue box when a user clicks on an image in Flash MX?

Save Image With Open / Save Dialogue
Hi

I currently have a button that when click opens a new browser window so a user can right click on an image and save it to their PC using getURL.

Is it possible to have a button open the save dialogue box of the users operating system?

So as soon as the button is click the OS save dialogue box appears.

I'm using Flash CS3 but with AS2.

Thanks

Trying To Download/save Swf
OK.  I'm trying to get hold of the brain.swf from
http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/body/interactives/organs/brainmap/brain.swf

It displays fine on ie, gc, and ff.
FF is the only one to successfully pull it down to save, but after saving it's not functional.

How do they DO that?  And, just as important, how do I download it as a functional swf?

? Save/download File ?
Hi,

can someone help me with this one ?
I want to make a button in flash which does the same as a right-click "save-target as" on a href link.
I have tried the following code:


Code:
on (press) {
getURL (_root.Url=("http://www.???.com/???"));
}

However, this code does not show a messagebox for downloading the file (instead, it tries to embed the file in the browserwindow).

Has anyone experience in this matter ?
Thanks in advance,

DOWNLOAD MP3 (save Target)
Im guessing this is the right place to post this, as Im guessing action script will come into it. I'm trying to make a flash site for a local band, and want to know how I should add songs to it on the sounds page. Ideally I'd like some kind of save target function like you can get on a normal html page.


I was also wondering if it could be an idea to have a song with a play button so that you could stream it if you wanted and then another one that saves target

If there is no way of using the save target I guess the MP3's could be zipped up then i could use getURL.


Thanks

"Save Image As.." Button For Dynamically Loaded Images
Is there a way to make a button that when clicked will open a "save image as" dialog box in Flash MX (basically for FlashPlayer 7).

I know how to do it in Flash 8 using the new flash.net.FileReference class... but since the Flash 8 player (and from what I hear, Flash 9) has the dynamically loaded images SMOOTHING turned off for some unknown reason, I've been forced to publish as Flash Player 7.

Is there a way to do it? maybe using a PHP script or something?

I guess I COULD use the getURL command, open the image in a new browser window and the user could right click to save image as... but that's just sloppy....

Download File And Save It On Local Drive
Hi,

I really need help in the actionScript in Flash 5. I'm new to Flash and I need to finish up a project within a week.

I need to download a file from the server and copy it to my local drive by clicking on a button. How should I go about it? Currently, I have tried using getURL but this will open the file in the browser which I don't wish to. I have tried loadVariables and this doesn't work at all as the file which I want to download is at the server, not at the same drive as my file.fla

Please HELP!

FileReference.download() Not Triggering Save As... Dialog
I'm trying to use FileReference.download for a user to download a file. (obviously)

It's working just fine, for 99% of our users. However, for one user in particular, the "Save As..." dialog box never appears. Does anybody know of any firewall/anit-virus/other security settings that could block this? It's happening in FF 2.0 and IE 6, with Flash Player 9, using AS 2.0.

Save Button To Save Dynamic Mc's?
If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it.

Problem in short :
Working on interactive kiosk - have button that creates dynamic copies of my parent movieclip (picture of lion) The user would click on button to create copies and using "drag" move the lion to where she saw it on the map.

Once the lion "sightings" have been visally logged on the map, and need to be able to give them a "save" button to save what you see on screen.

Because this is created dynamically by the user, I need a way for the user to save it at runtime.

How would one go about this?
p.s I need to be able to show the new saved file from a remote pc.

Any help - you are my hero

Forcing A "Save As" Box To Download A File From GetURL
PROBLEM: I have a music Web site with MP3s (my own band, so they're legal). When people click the links to the MP3s, they download to a temp folder that most people have trouble finding.

QUESTION: Is there a way with ActionScript that when the link is clicked, it opens a "Save As" box so that the user can decide where to save the MP3?

-fscommand doesn't work because it doesn't know where to find the file on the server

-inline JavaScript doesn't work for the same reason. You can specify to open the SaveAs box, but it has no clue what or where you're getting the MP3 from on the remote server.

- tried passing a querystring in Flash to an ASP page and that didn't work either.



Anyone know how to do this? ASP.NET is not a solution, as I don't have the $ to pay for that kind of hosting. JavaScript? VBScript? PHP, perhaps?

Save As Image
Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to create a "Save As...." button in my flash movie? To save a shot of the scene as a jpeg or bmp. It is for an online art sketcher for a client. The user will create a image using various drawing tools and then send the image to a gallery. I do know Director has a "Save as.." funtion but im not really familiar with it. Is it even possible to send an 'image' or symbol of a scene between swf files internally?

Thanks for any help!!!

Save Image
Hi,

I have a project making a basic drawing tool that will allow the user to save the image into a database to be shown on a website. I've made the drawing tool and I understand I will need server-side scripting like php or .net to render the flash data into a jpeg or gif. Just wondering if anyone has any advice, files, tutorials I could take a looksy at...

It is basically the same as the facebook graffiti app, I just need to get the image out of flash and create the image..

Thanks in advance for any help,

Steven.

Save Jpg Image From Swf
Hi,

I am new to flash, dont have much idea about flash scripting. I am working on a project where i need to save the swf file in jpg format on the user system. The situation is :

I have a application similar to MSpaint. In my application we can load a map, fill colors, draw different shapes on the map, do labelling and alike. This all is getting done with the help of multiple swfs. I am loading all the swfs in a single file. But the problem is different swfs which are loaded are at different levels. So I am not able to print or save them together.
If I implement the code to save the final image made on the screen, I end up saving only one of the levels.

I need a technique where in I can save all the swfs as a single layer.

Also I am loading diffrenet swfs in one movieclip.

If any1 can plsssss help.

Thnx in advance...

Save Image In Flash?
Is it possible to save all or a portion of a Flash SWF as a bitmap?

I know you can do this by capturing the screen but I'm talking about a command inside Flash. Also, I know you can do this with some of the 3rd-party projector tools but I need to do it from a SWF embedded in a web page.

If this is not possible, any ideas as to the best way to implement a drawing program that can store the user's drawing in a gallery? I guess I could capture everything they draw in a database and then play it back when they want to view it?

Thanks, Chris.

Save Area As Image...
Hi Guys,

Well; I've made a flash text generator with fancy effects; but I don't want people to have to literally crop it all up.

My need; is a button that can simply grab a certain area of the animation and save it as an image file (Where the user can then choose where they want it). I don't want this to be too web, php etc. orientated; In fact I wish for it to be offline mainly; although a bit of web editing won't hurt.

If this is possible through ActionScript or simple actions in Flash MX, then help me out guys;

Thanks in Advance,
Dan

Another 'save As Image' Thread..
ok.. so I finally wanted to actually try instead of just reading it.. (ie: had a need for it)


I read the same basic threads/posts that go to the same tuts.. however I couldnt get things to work..

not sure if AS, PHP..or if a hosting problem possibly? (permissions)

long story short.. I am trying to get the most straight forward (no filters..no video capture..etc) method to work.

just a clip on stage.. has some scribbles or other movieClip attached inside fo it.. but whatever is inside tis 'containerClip' should be copied 7 sent to a php script to be made into an image..



AS:

PHP Code:



import flash.display.BitmapData;button1.onPress = function(){    output();}function output() {    var snap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(containerClip._width, containerClip._height, false, 0xFFFFFF);    snap.draw(containerClip);    var pixels:Array = new Array();    var w:Number = snap.width;    var h:Number = snap.height;    for (var a = 0; a<=w; a++) {        for (var b = 0; b<=h; b++) {            var tmp = snap.getPixel(a, b).toString(16);            pixels.push(tmp);        }    }        //send to php for image creation    var output:LoadVars = new LoadVars();    output.img = pixels.toString();    output.height = h;    output.width = w;    output.send("http://www.domainname.com/folder/show.php", "output", "POST");}





PHP:

PHP Code:



<?php    $data = explode(",", $_POST['img']);    $width = $_POST['width'];    $height = $_POST['height'];    $image=imagecreatetruecolor( $width ,$height );    $background = imagecolorallocate( $image ,0 , 0 , 0 );    //Copy pixels    $i = 0;    for($x=0; $x<=$width; $x++){        for($y=0; $y<=$height; $y++){            $int = hexdec($data[$i++]);            $color = ImageColorAllocate ($image, 0xFF & ($int >> 0x10), 0xFF & ($int >> 0x8), 0xFF & $int);            imagesetpixel ( $image , $x , $y , $color );        }    }    //Output image and clean    header( "Content-type: image/jpeg" );    ImageJPEG( $image );    imagedestroy( $image );    ?>




I see it looks to be currently set-up for.jpg output.. I would eventually want it to be a .gif or .png.. so does that mean in the AS using getPixe32() instead? or is there other changes?

Thanks


sorry this is AS2.0 only (Flash 8)

this link:
http://www.quasimondo.com/archives/000572.php

source files are sorta working out of the box.. as I see the image being created.. however he is using a custom class with the file upload reference included..and Id like to have something just VERY simple and then move forward..

on click on button..take pre-determined containerClip (and all nested content).. send the data to php script on server,.. php script takes bitmap data/array creates a .png (or whatever at this point).. and then returns some message back to flash.. saying all is complete.. and maybe a url?

at this point.. thing will change.. but Id like to get here if anyone can help or offer suggestions? ultimately I guess id like for it to be emailed..

or just have it open in a new page?..

thanks
