How can I move a ball to the left once the left arrow is pressed, so the ball moves to the left side and should automatically return to the right once it reaches the end of the stage... And the same thing should be applied to the right arrow.
View 1 RepliesI've attached a file which makes a ball move to the left when pressing the right arrow key.[code]On a Key.RIGHT it goes through a for loop. Shifting the ball 200 times 1 pixel to the left. Every iteration it tests for a hit with coordinates 100/50 (indicated by the red crosshairs). If there's no hit it moves 1 pixel to the left. If there is a hit it stops moving (no ball._x--).Funny thing is: while it eventually finds a hit, it does a final For Loop. Even though it should find a hit during that last loop when the ball is passing the crosshairs, it doesn't and moves the ball a final time 200 times 1 pixel to the left. Ending up with below image.URL...Why doesn't it find a 'hit' for that final For Loop while it's clearly passing it?

View 9 RepliesI'm working on an online portfolio of design work. I've set the jpegs up to load dynamically into movie clips so I don't have to keep them in my .fla file. To see the issue: please open "help_.fla" and 3 jpegs (same folder as the .fla file). Run the flash movie. Click on the "NVIDIA" in the top navigation, then on CBS Cable. When the first page of CBS Cable appears, click on the right arrow to see the next CBS page. Then, click again on "NVIDIA" in the top navigation bar.
1. How can I hide the left or right arrows depending on which CBS page I'm on? When I'm on the first page, for example, the back arrows should be hidden. 2. When I'm back in the NVIDIA page again, how can I hide the arrows still showing from the CBS Cable pages? Finally, what's up with the brief flashing of the NVIDIA screen when I click on the right or left arrows of the CBS pages? Here's the code I'm using to call up the images dynamically into movie clips.

I'm trying to do a photo gallery for a website with scrolling arrows. I found a bit of AS that's perfect for what I want to do only problem is, it's in AS1 and i'm working in AS2 so i was wondering if someone could convert the code to AS2 for me or direct me to a tutorial that has the same sort of outcome in AS2.

I want to make an interactive image scroller. I am making a webshop and I want a flash to scroll through some of the latest products (3 or 4) that I put in myself and animate or whatever, maybe there's a better and easier way. I want this movie to have these products scrolling from right to left by auto with maybe an ease effect, but when you move your mouse pointer over the whole movie I want it to stop, and when it stops I want two arrows appear on the left and right side of the movie which will be clickable and you will be able to scroll through the products with them as well.
It doesn't need to have an external XML connection where you insert scrolling speed and so on. Of course it would be simplier, but without is fine too. I will try to explain in what terms I know of:
-Mouseout/rollout = 3 or 4 products scrolling one by one from the right and ease in to the middle, pause 4 seconds, then scroll out to the left with an ease. Looped.
-Mouseover/rollover = Movie stops and then you can use arrows on both each side and scroll by yourself. But I don't know if I want this only to be available when the product is in the center of the movie, or else it would be kind of weird if the movie stopped when one product was just about to go half-way out or in.
how to change the directional arrows to keyboard letters on keypress. the browser scrolls when i press arrow up and down arrows and it's quite annoying. i just want to change the keypress of up arrow to w, then left arrow to a, right arrow to d and down arrow to s. just one of any will do then i'll do the rest.
here's the code:
function detectKeys() {
var ob = _root.char;
var keyPressed = false;
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {

I have a swf that I'd like to navigate with keyboard arrows to access each active button.
(a) navigating through 'hit state' buttons on a menu page using arrow keys
(b) a highlight_mc that remains on the focus item.In the same swf I also have key press methods in place.
I feel like this is an easy issue, but maybe some input form a PRO could unlodge my thinking.
How can I move (on click) the ball up? I'd like to click in ball and move it up, the gravity move it down as well...
View 1 RepliesI am trying to get a ball from left to right I click in 28 and insert keyframe then I right click and click on create motion tween nothing happens.

View 9 RepliesI have an Image called "PanoramaImage" (which is very long in width). I want this image to move from right to left & from left to right automatically.
I am using flash as3. I am loading this image from the same folder where the .fla file exist. my image to move by using Up & Down arrow keys.
The following is the sample code i found on web.
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.CO MPLETE, completeHandler);

well 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.

I've just learned the basics of programmatic animation in Actionscript 3.0 but I can't seem to think of the right solution for this problem.Here is what I'm trying to do: A ball moves at a certain speed from the left of the screen to the right end. If there's a box in the way, it keeps bumping into it until the box breaks and it continues moving forward.The box will have a set weight that will control how much it slides when it is bumped by the ball. The ball will be pushed back a bit when it bumps the box.I have a very specific idea and all I need is a little help starting. How would you tackle this problem?

View 3 RepliesI'm using the actionscript below to Move Object Using The Arrow Keys and it works fine but I want to modify it so that when I press the up key it goes to and play a movie clip. Basically it's a ball movie clip that responds to the arrow key but on the up key it plays a bouncing movieclip and everything remains aligned.
Here is the script-
var speed =5;
this.onEnterFrame =function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
circle._y -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
circle._y += speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
circle._x -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
circle._x += speed;
}};
I cant figure out how to make the ball move and bounce around the stage. and i also need help on the paddle that the ball bounces off of. if u could help me out that would be awesome.

The code for KEY_UP and KEY_DOWN seems to work fine. But, the rest of it returns the error "1119: Access of possibly undefined property Key through a reference with static type Class." How do you call a function for Right, Left, Enter, and Escape Keys?
I'm making a game in AS3 and I need to move an object from left to right using the keyboard, it works fine but the problem is that when i push left or right the object moves but not in a fluid way, I assigned to movement to KEY_DOWN but first it moves the ammount of distance i gave up then pauses for half a second and then I moves fluid in the direction i gave. Now my question is how do I need to program it so that when I push the button it move fluid in that direction immediately instead of taking a little pause?

After read a lot about ball physics, watch some examples and few days of trying making pinball with bitmaps, I use simple (easy to work with) and fast performance Physics AS3 engine for bitmaps [URL] but still cant fix problem: if ball is moving too fast and object on path is too small, there will be no collision detection (code works perfect only with bigger objects or if ball is moving slower). I am not good at physics and maths. Here is function code which make physics for ball on every frame rate (but maybe its better to change it to setTimeout):
function showFrame(e:Event) // onEnterFrame{
var collisions:Array = collisionlist.checkCollisions();
if(collisions.length) // if collision{
var collision:Object = collisions[0]; // get collision information
var angle:Number = collision.angle; // get collision angle

I've got two different instances of two different MovieClips on the stage of the fla. Visually they're identical but one is facing left and one is facing right. When the file runs, the one that's facing left appears on the stage while the one that's facing right is set to be invisible. What I'm trying to do is have the one that's facing left go invisible when the right arrow is pressed and for the one that's facing right to appear in it's place and accept further input from the right arrow key. When I run the file, the one facing left moves just fine. My problem is that when I press right, the one facing left disappears and the one facing right appears in it's place but it just moves once and stops.
