Copy / Paste function

[skiplan]

Hello,

 

Is there a function to copy/paste a TransformItem?

 

If not, how can I do this easily?

 

Thanks a lot for answer.

No, I'm sorry but there isn't copy/paste functionality built into TransformManager. You'd need to duplicate your DisplayObject yourself (which is easy if it's just a Bitmap or something, using its bitmapData duplicating a complex MovieClip or something that has custom properties/methods, children, etc. is more challenging). Once you have your object duplicated, though, it is easy to copy the transformational data by simply using the transform.matrix data like myNewObject.transform.matrix = myOldObject.transform.matrix. Then just addItem() to your TransformManager and you're done.
