Jigsaw Puzzle Component for Flash 2.2
his useful gig is a Macromedia Flash MX 2004 UI Component developed and packed as Extension by someFrogs.com. Unlike most other jigsaw puzzle applications for Flash, Jigsaw Puzzle v2.1 recognizes the neighbor pieces put near in right direction and then groups them. This makes the game more real and more fascinating. With this easy to use and customizable tool you can build your own puzzles that can be published for on-line web gaming or compiled as desktop applications.
JigsawPuzzle v2.2 is developed with ActionScript 2.0 and extends Macromedia Flash MX's IUComponent class. The component renders any external image file or any symbol in the library marked as Export for Actionscript accessing the symbol with its Linkage Identifier. So preparing jigsaw puzzles is as easy as providing the component with the Linkage Identifier of the picture symbol. You can also adjust the piece division (4 up to 144), rotation ability of pieces, select one from 5 different shape styles by setting parameters using Flash's Properties inspector or Component Inspector panels.
Methods, properties and events supported by JigsawPuzzle component allow advanced Flash users adjust all of the parameters even at runtime. You can check the samples and documentation to see if application meets your needs.
