hi

 

is it possible to have a number of movie clips on the stage to form an image then i would like to group them together to export or save that group as an image like a jpeg or similar

can it be done in as3??

 

i would really appreciate any help because if this cant be done i cannot go ahead with my project idea

and buy the license. this would really solve a huge problem i can forsee in the future

 

cheers

I have never personally saved something out as a JPEG, but I seem to remember seeing some articles about doing that online, so I think it is possible. Obviously TransformManager won't do that for you - you'd need to handle saving the stuff out as a JPEG on your own, but again, I'm pretty sure it's possible. I'm also 99% sure that you must involve a server-side script, and it tends to be pretty bandwidth-intensive, so you may not be happy with the performance.

 

Good luck!
