How to detect the distance of the mouse movement in a certain time. I'd like to be able to calculate the distance the mouse was moved from one point to another in certain time (one second) and compare these values.
View 3 RepliesWhat I am trying to do with AS3 in Flash cs4 is calculate the cursor's distance to given point (let say 400,300) and use that distance to constantly (20 fps) change my curtain's alpha value. (which is basically a box turned into a movie clip) [code]...

View 0 RepliesI'm needing this for a current project, so I have been digging around quite a bit (with little luck) on finding the distance between two points VERY fast. Yes, it is quite critical that it be as optimized as possible. I have the basics, Pythagorean Theorem run in different ways, as well as the Point.distance() function.
View 11 RepliesI am not sure how to display the distance between the 2 objects on stage dynamically when they are dragged.
View 5 RepliesI am trying to make a program where I put in a bitmap map and then am able to calculate the distance between two points, and I have done that. Now I want to be able to zoom out and still have those two distance calculate the same distance apart, is there a way to do this with AS3 without have to manually scale my code?
For example I don't necessarily want to have to do
var distance = Math.sqrt(dx*dx+dy*dy)/scale...
Reason being is I would have to redo a lot of code.

View 2 RepliesIm trying to create a scrolling image gallery that changes when one hits the button by tweening the images left and right and now I'm trying to find a simple way to limit their movements in AS3.
Currently the images scroll infinitely in either direction. Is there anyway to restrict their movements?

import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.Regular;
RightArrow_Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, scrollRight)

I have a mc (fStrip) which looks like a piece of filmstrip with thumbnail images in it. I want this mc to move when the users mouse is positioned over it, but I only want it to move only along it's x-axis and in a direction opposite that of the mouse. And I want it to move or flow smoothly.
I've been trying to figure this out (see my lame attempt below) but without much luck.
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
buffer=20 //movement buffer
mousePos=_root.fStrip._xmouse //store mouse position
if (mymouse!=_root.fStrip._xmouse){ //if the mouse has moved
[Code].....
Not sure this exist, but worth asking you all: is there a built in method to compute the distance between the current mouse position and a given component? If not, is there a simple way to build a function like this that works for components with generic shapes?
View 2 RepliesI created a movie where I have a circle in the middle and a line drawing from the center out when the mouse moves. I want to calculate the distance from the mouse position to the middle of the circle. What I am going to do is have a sound playing from the center of the ball..The closer you get the louder the sound gets and the further away from the middle the quieter it gets. You can download my fla to see what I have so far.

Im looking for a quick solution (if its out there) using the autohide feature using the FLV Playback Component.
Current situation: Using ActionScript 2. The FLV component fills the stage. Autohide is set to true.
It looks to me that since the video fills the stage, the skin will not hide. What I would like to do is have the skin fade out if the mouse doesnt move for a certain period of time.
I am working on the project where everything is based on the distance from the center of the stage. First I made this fla where flash outputs the x and y distance from the center. First problem is that I want to output distance only in positive numbers.

i was hoping that when the newMc expands, all other mc would keep the same distance between each other as at initialisation. I not able to figure how to do it. maybe even an earlier post or llink where similar query was explained.
How would you calculate or determine the mouse speed on the stage? What i am trying to do is this:
You have a custom cursor which shows a plus sign when you very suddenly and fast change the direction of the mouse to the right. When you do the same to the left, the cursor changes to the minus sign.
However, if you steadily move the mouse from left to right while the mouse cursor is showing the minus sign, the mouse cursor stays the same, only on very fast change of direction the cursor changes?
How can I calculate the angle of a 3d object based on the mouse speed?I want to change the rotationZ state based on the mouse position.

>>You can use it directly as a method of the Vector3D class to get the Euclidean distance between two three-dimensional points.
Which point does this method pick? Is it the closest point to the other object ?
I am just thinking of how much time this would take in testing objects with large poly count.
I as this working in AS2 and need to update to AS3...shows that AS3 doesn't like sloppy coding. Here's what I need: I pull data from an XML and that works when I put the data into a dynamic text box. However, I can't seem to get the date of birth into a variable. I have some code that calcs age in years but uses a string literal that I thought I could just replace with a variable from my XML...ain't a workin'. Here's the code I have:

I'm trying to make a dummy from a circular menu that reacts (rotate) to mouse movement, I uploaded a fla example, different colors, size, etc, but essentially the same in
function; but for now I'm freezed how to do somethings, I'm not a programer or actionscripter, but I want to learn.Currently using CS3 and AS2, downloading the FLA example may help.
Ok, in the "fla", you will see a circle who rotates versus mouse movement (I would like to make a delay rotation for a smooth feelling when mouse is moving, those like "_x += (_xmouse/5)" but with rotation. Other thing I would like to do,is... that the movement stops progressively a few degrees before the mouse reach de cian angles(a1,a2), and then, the circles doesn't move if the mouse is moving under those angles, like a... an inactive area(U1), and if it could work with instances.
I have this simple code to animate a MC.[code]Can someone tell me how i will animate this with mouse movements?
View 1 RepliesI've seen couple of websites [URL]...in these websites the text & the objects move with the mouse moves. I just wanna know how to move the objects with mouse movement or you can say how to make an object follow the mouse (left-right-up-down)
P.S. In the 2nd website there's a 3d character also which I don't have in my project so there's nothing to worry about 3d in flash. I've just couple of images & text
i try to invert the mouse movement. when you move the mouse the the left it will go to the right and viceversa. the same for the Y axe.
