August 7th, 2011BitmapData and transparency
August 4th, 2011If you used draw method from BitmapData class to copy some DisplayObject with transparency you may notice that all transparent pixels turned white. This is because you didn’t set properly parameters in BitmapData construcotr.
By default BitmapData fills it’s background with white and to avoid this you have to set fillColor parameter to any transparent color.
var bitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(someWidth, someHeight, true, 0x00ffffff);
bitmapData.draw(someDisplayObject);
bitmapData.draw(someDisplayObject);
