I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction on how to drag a moiveclip with elastic easing similar to the cloverfield siteAfter seaching the web for hours I was able to find this postIn is is this script:
var easing:Number = 0.15;
//var targetX:Number = 0;
//var targetY:Number = 0;
[code].....
I am using tween easing.Elastic for my animation , i need to control the elastic speed from action script 2.0.
View 0 RepliesI have two drag-related questions. The first one is how to rotate an object by clicking and holding on it, then moving the mouse round in circles. Think of a clock face, and the user clicking and holding on one of the hands, then spinning it around. The centre point would be the part of the hand that's attached to the middle of the clock face, and the other end of the hand would be able to rotate 360 degrees around the face.
The second one (and not related to the first one, a separate query altogether) is how to drag something horizontally along the screen, but have it stuck at a certain speed. So if the user tries to quickly drag the clip from left to right, it will not reach the right instantly, but instead follow the cursor at a slow speed.
i have an MC (hand) that ive made to be draggable. once the hand is released it should return to its original position....but of course, it doesnt. the code is a slight variation of some i found a while back and have kept in a folder. first frame on code layer in main timeline Code:[code]
View 7 RepliesI have a problem with dragging movieclip which is dynamically generated via attaching movieclip from library.I want to move the movieclip by pressing the yellow square within a boundary say 100*4. I am attaching the flash file with this thread.

how to incorporate tween classes and then easing?
I've built a code to cyclically move a scene on the bottom of my stage; I've done this to make a slowing-and-stop-easing effect at anytime the command will arrive. The entire scene mc is _x long something like 6000 px. The whole code goes in this way:
1) importing on the stage (with attachMovie) a mc with this code inside:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
_parent._parent.fondo_mc._x -= countermovement;
if (_parent._parent.fondo_mc._x <= -5800) {[code].....
The code goes right, but I need to improve it.Now there is just a variable, I tought to use two vars to implement the whole code in a setInterval, but maybe it's unuseful, and actually I can't use it in the right way.
Second issue: actually when slowAndStop function is called the scene slow too fast, if I take it to 15 it slow better but the scene is running too fast...
The best would be that the scene slow down and stop following: A) a temporal variable (and I can try to implement it with setInterval, that for istance is a cycle)
B) an indipendent moving variable, so that on one side I set the speed, on the other side I set the slow-and-stop in a matter of time with countermovement.I also tried to use a second variable:
var counter:Number = 15;
// set the _x increment
var countermovement:Number = counter/2;
but the scene slow and goes backward a bit
How do I drag more the 1 movieClip using this
on (press) {
startDrag(screen);
}
on (release) {
stopDrag();

i have ths scrollable movieclip that i want to add easing to by do not no how... Can someone share there knowledge into showing me how to do this? Im sure i need tweennano lite or something like that right?

I'm attempting to make an AS3 class that allows me to drag an object with easing. I've looked around the net and put this together.I have created this class as startDrag() doesn't allow easing. I've almost got it working but there is a problem where the registation point of the movielclip snaps to the mouse position (this is the equivalent of having "lockcenter:boolean" in startDrag() set to "true")this is the problem bit in my script:
targetX = mouseX;
targetY = mouseY;
(full code below)
Code:
package classes{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[code].............
Has anyone got some nice clean code that; scrolls a movieClip left and right when the mouse is over the left or right part of the stage. When the movieClip comes close to the end, it should slow down rather than abruptly stop.Basically, I have a really wide movieclip full of pictures. I want the user to be able scroll through it by just moving the mouse left to right.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to enable the user to drag a movieclip vertically. I've coded something to be dragged horizontally, and thought it would be a simple matter of swapping some of the info around.
Here is my current code:
stop();
var leftY1:int = 120;
var rightY1:int = 400;
frontbar1_mc.mask = mask1_mc.rec1_mc;
[code]....
Now when the movieclip is clicked, it completely changes position and will only be dragged horizontally. Then when its clicked again, it will jump vertically by how much I previously dragged it horizontally.
If -- draggable -- moivieClip_A is created, and then moivieCLip_B is created as a child of movieClip_A, (when movieClip_A is dragged onPress, movieClip_B simultaneously moves with it), is it possible to change a property of movieClip_B with a mouse event? Seems as though movieClip_A's layer position / mouse events are blocking mouse events for movieClip_B.
View 2 RepliesI have movie clip which I wish to drag in Y only.Code:
newMC.startDrag(false, new Rectangle(0, -99999, 0, 99999));
For some reason I cannot drag the movie clip above the top of the stage, no matter which way around I put the nines.
I'm trying to accomplish something in actionscript that involves dragging a movie clip. You see, I want to drag a movie clip out of a scroller (see this tutorial - I am using it currently to attempt to make this work) and onto another area of the stage, where users will then be able to drag it around and resize it. I am hoping that the user will be able to create something from these pictures.

View 4 RepliesRecently I've been developing a new site that runs 100% with noScale. What I'm aiming to achieve is the ability for the user to move their mouse up and down on the Y Axis to effectively scroll the site. (Without having to click). I've tried adapting the Interactive Image Panner Actionscript from the Tutorial on kirupa - but it doesn't seem to be working quite right I've changed all the X Values to Y.
Code:
stop();
this.onMouseMove = function() {
constrainedMove(bg_mc, 4, 1); };
function constrainedMove(target:MovieClip, speed:Number, dir:Number) {
var mousePercent:Number = _ymouse/Stage.height;
[Code] .....
The zip containing the fla and html files are located here - [URL].
I am trying to basically migrate this: [URL] to ActionScript 3.0 or some how achieve the same resizing effect.
View 5 Repliesi want to play timeline foward/reverse with dragging MovieClip left/right in AS2.0
View 1 RepliesWhat is the difference between dragging a movieClip to stage from the user interface and inserting it from code? What I mean is....I noticed that if I drag a movie clip from the library to the stage, give it an instance name ('xx'), I can access it from code using "this.xx". However, if I add the movieClip from code using:
var ch = new MovieClip();
ch.name = 'xx';
addChild(ch);
I cannot access it using this.xx, but I have to access it using this.getChildByName('xx');
i dont understand why the easing effect doesnt work on my movieclip_mc ? I see so much fantastic effects we can do but tutorials are not really clear about easing : too much theory and not so much practical demos I m sure something like a basis position and an end position are missing?.

I have created a portfolio which is supposed to give the impression that it is my windows desktop that you are looking at. I have made it so that I can drag MSN Messenger around now, but I have come upon a problem I can't figure out.
I have two movieclips representing my windows. One for the open window, which contains the animation to open a windown from minimized, and the window in open state. And one which contains the animation of the window closing. The problem is that when I start to drag the movieclip, I don't know how to "lock" the close movieclip to the open moviclip, so that they remain op top of eachother. Also, the position on the stage the windows gets minimized to(and maximized from) moves with the movieclip, making it look stupid if you minimize a window after having dragged it. Look on "Om Mig" on the site to see what I mean.
Here is the site
Is there a way to fix the other movieclip to the drag, and is the a way to fix the position the windows tween to when they are minimize and maximized, after the movieclips have been dragged?[code]...
There is a mouseUpEvent listener attached to the stage in the main class, while dragging the movieClip the mouseUpEvent doesnot trigger the handler and the movieClip gets sticks to the mouse. While the item is being dragged and the mouse is moved away from the movieClip i.e somewhere not on the item but on the stage the mouseUp is detected.
Edit: Here is the scenario I am using a static (Singleton) class as a movieClip as a "DragManager".Whenever a movieClip has to be dragged it is passed to the DragManager and is added as a child,when a mouseUp from stage is detected another static function of dragManager is called to stop the drag and put the movieClip on the appropriate layer.Here is the static function in the DragManager which is called on MouseDown from variouslayers.
public static function startDragMethod(item:Item):void
{
instance.addChild(item); //This is the instance of the DragManager
var boundArea:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0,0,610,760);[code]...
my goal is to implement drag drop between various layers and with as less coupling as possible.
I have a draggable item, a MovieClip that calls startDrag() on itself when it is clicked, and another MovieClip on the stage.I need the MovieClip to receive ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT events while the draggable MovieClip is being dragged over it, but the lower clip doesn't receive these messages while a clip is being dragged over it.Essentially, ROLL_OVER is only sent to the topmost MovieClip under the mouse. Normally, you'd fix that with some combination of mouseEnabled or mouseChildren on the overlapping MovieClips, but if you do that to a draggable MovieClip, it breaks dragging. I need to detect when the mouse is over the lower MovieClip, regardless of what MovieClips are above it.

I have a menu bar as a movie clip and another movie clip acting as a slider. I want to on pressing a button on the Menu bar movie clip get the slider to slide across with easing. however I don't want the easing to be infinite so can't use a this._x*=.9 or some decimal < 1. Loop function only acts on the single frame so it too quick to see.
