flash actionscript: Hi eveyone,

I work in the music auditorium @ the college and I would like to build a tool
in flash that allows the following things:

1.- Be able to move certain instruments to a particular place in an empty
auditorium template on the screeen.
2.- Have a button that takes a screenshot/snapshot/screen capture of what I
have dinamically put in place over the auditorium template and e-mail it to a
particular e-mail address that will never change.
3.- Have another buttom that takes that image and be able to print it in local
printer.

Is there a such of an actionscript that could allow me to take a
snapshot/screenshot from a dynamic created flash animation?

I don't want to use PrtSc key from the keyboard, it has to be automatically
generated when user push a button.

Please advise on how to accomplish this task.

Thanks in advance.

The basic syntax for the print() function, which you can associate with a
button or other trigger in your document to activate printing, is shown as
follows:


print (target, ?Bounding box?);


The target parameter specifies the location of the frames that print, and the
bounding box parameter specifies the print area.

This is not possible with Flash unless you look into using a 3rd party plugin...

Flashjester has something like this if I remember correctly...

A side note, you can save the variables to a database and allow a user to
login and access the database to display they saved movieClip locations... :-)

Thanks MyFlashMXIN,

It is a brilliant idea, I never thought about it, but it seems that it will be
more code involved to accomplish this task.

I will try first .:}x-=V!P=-x{:. suggestion to see if I can resolve this
issue with it.

Thanks you guys.
