OK, at first this seemed like the easiest thing to do, but I've tried to make it work a number of different ways and nothing seems to work. I have a movie clip that I want to have constantly moving back and forth across the stage, basically "bounce" off the left and right sides. What's the best way to do this using AS2?
View 6 Replieswell i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.

Using Tween class maybe? I tried the easeOut. But if will write 2 Tween, the 2nd one will overwrite the 1st one, so I only see the obj moving in the 2nd Tween direction, not the 1st Tween direction. I know the coordinates for the 2nd Tween below is not correct (cos all coordinates shld follow the defined reference point), so I need to find out the logo's width and height. But is alright now cos it is for testing purpose.

I am having some dificulty making a path for this enemy i'm trying to create... cause i want him to rotate + move, then stop, then shoot, then rotate back and move off screen... Its easier if you see it.. you can download the swf file in the zipped archive to demonstrate what i mean. I did it there with tweens. Anyway.. i tried and make it but i'm a little stuck on the stopping part... you can also see what i did in the fla file attatched...

View 1 RepliesI have made a simple "maze game".Player is sent to frame 10 if they reach the end goal or frame 20 if they accidentally "rollover" my walls (button). In frame 1, I successfully remove the mouse and add a Movie Clip to the Mouse/Cursor. I remove the MC when they go to frame 10 OR frame 20 and then when they replay and are sent back to frame 1. The MC again appears as the Cursor. GREAT. Now here's my problem. When they are sent back to frame 1, I want the Cursor to be at an exact position to replay the game. Right now, it ends up wherever they have the cursor pointing and if it is touching my "walls", game over immediately. Here is the code I have on frame 1. It is working BUT I need to add code that makes the cursor ALSO go to a specific position.

I have created a motion-tween with three images rotating in a flat circle from the foreground to the back. As the images move to the background, they shrink in size 25% and darken a bit. The motion has three stopping stages, with each image having a period in the foreground.
I am having an issue figuring how to make the images in the front to overlap those in the back as it rotates. I have tried placing each image on a seperate layer and placing the images on a single layer but it doesn't function the way I hope.
I'm working with a web service and am returning an array to a field (that I set the data type as an Array). The result thus far is "[object Object]". How can I get the array values back out as a string?

ok you know when on a button it may "move up" or somthing and then you get off the button and it pops righ back into place.. how do u make it move slowly and fluently back to the position.. like if you have 4 different boxes, and you click it and the arrows move to next box, but if the first box is clicked again, it will moved up to previous box smoothly back to the first box, what code do i need for this...?
View 3 RepliesI would like to be able to move images into and out of Flex by converting back and forth between ByteArrays. I've been having some trouble with this, so I designed a simple test program, and even that I can't get to work. Here's the code I'm trying right now:

So far the process follows top to bottom: Click button 3, image displays, everything is going well. Click button 4, and I get "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2124: Loaded file is an unknown type." after the line "loader.loadBytes(myByeArray);" in the function button4_clickHandler. As far as I can tell I'm using everything as intended.
I tried to create simple animation from this Kirupa's tutorial My aim is to make a circle run from left to right and when it is almost to the edge it will move back to the origin point and it will loop only 3 times. So I came up with totally baby script like this:
[Code]...
But the MC is not move back to the original place. Sorry for not even finish the script for stop looping. Only tweak on play loop it make me very confused. My knowledge is quite in entry level but I eager to learn. Could you let me know what is wrong with the script?
I have an animation that I want the user to be able to move back and forth by clicking Next_btn or Back_btn buttons. Here's what I've done.

I can navigate through the movie correctly, until I navigate back to frame 1 ("start"). After this, when I click on the Next button, the movie goes to the last frame without stopping at "KMT2".
So I have two circles and a square on stage, myCircle1, myCircle2, and mySquare. You can drag the two circles, if you drop either one outside the square it'll snap back to where it originally was, if it's touching the box it'll snap to the center of the square.
I want it so when the second circle (either one) snaps to the center of the square, the first one will go back to it's original co-ordinates. So only one circle can be in the square at any time.
I've attached my as file with the current code.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make an application in cs4 that allows the user to move a stickman into various positions and then play back the sequence of moves. Despite the fact that I haven't even gotten that far yet I also would need an undo and redo button. I have a few ideas regarding this i.e. logging each body part's coordinates as the user moves them and editing the timeline through some sort of 'record' button and undoing by having some sort of array...none of which I know how to implement into actionscript yet.

I'm still new to AS3, and I was wondering how to make an object point in the direction of another object and move towards it if they are a certain distance from one another. I haven't been able to find out how to do this from the Adobe devnet, so I thought I'd ask here.
View 1 RepliesI am having a major problem trying to move an object to another object with a set speed I want object1 to move towards object2 for collision. Right now I control object2 with my keyboard and I want the script to tell object1 to move towards object2.
View 2 RepliesIt's been a long time since I've done any work with actionscript, and alas I've forgotten nearly everything. I've tried to look for a tutorial that would explain basic animation with actionscript, but the one that I found on Kirupa was no longer there.
Basically I'd like to do this:On the stage I have a movieclip and I'd like the movieclip to move along the x-axis to a certain point and then back to the starting point again. The moving speed of the movieclip should also be adjustable.
I condensed my problem down to the lines of code below.I think the code is pretty self explanitory. My problem is that for a reason I can't figure out, it doesn't tween the alpha back to 100. It simply snaps it back to 100 abruptly What am I doing wrong here?
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

Is there a way to size these objects, or is it depedent on the size of the image map?
If I set the rotation for any object on the stage, flash renders it as a 3d object, even if I set the rotation to 0 like this..[code]3d objects render differently and look fuzzier when you look at it dead on than when it is rendering as a 2d object. How do I convert the 3d object back to 2d so that I get the better quality 2d rendering back?

In my app, I switch back and forth between Scene 1 & Scene 2 using gotoAndStop. No problems in either scene the first two times each. After doing Scene 2 the second time and going to Scene 1, one of my buttons is gone and the variable for it is null. The button was created with the IDE, not in my script and exists only in Scene 1. I have nothing in my script that moves it or removes it from the stage, let alone destroying the object itself.
Using the debugger, I noticed that the pointer for the object has changed at the very beginning of the scene (flash.Display.SimpleButton(@146fb21) to flash.Display.SimpleButton(@146fd91)). So it seems to me that display objects made with the IDE are destroyed (var = null) when exiting a scene and recreated when the entering the scene.
what could cause this one button and not any other similarly created objects (buttons, movieclips, textfields, etc.) not to be recreated and only after the second revisit to its scene.
Is there a way to reference the object and its other property base on the position of the target
