I managed to scale a movie clip's width with easing. With this code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endWidth = 50;
_width += (endWidth-_width)/speed;
}
But it scales both from left and right sides i just want the left to be stable and right to scale.Shortly A box which width is 200 will become 50 but the scale will be from the right.
I am trying to scale a box with handles.
It looks like this:
I am trying to create a function but I have to admit to myself I don't really know how to do this Here is the code with some things I have been trying. I do get it to scale. But the rectangle moves.
Code: Select allif(scaling)
{
var scaleDistX = scaleMouseStartPosX - mouseX;
var scaleDistY = scaleMouseStartPosY - mouseY;

I need to scale a movieclip to fit the width of the screen and it's height to stay proportional. I have code that's always worked fine but, in this case, the movieclip is constantly changing size and this throws off my code, scaling it incorrectly when using a listener (it's initial scale is perfect).
Code: Select allgreybar._width = Stage.width;
greybar._height = Stage.height;
greybar._xscale = greybar._yscale = Math.max(greybar._xscale, greybar._yscale);
I imagine it's because it has shifted from the size it's proportions were read from by the time it applies them. I know my problem is theoretically solvable because the movieclip can be scaled correctly if I scale width and height equally. However, I need the movieclip to always be the width of the screen.
In my movie I have a few products that I resize dynamically based on which one is selected. the selected product is shown full scale while the other are scaled back. However the scaled back ones lose image quality and look pixelated. the products are currently movieclips in my presentation. Is there a way to use scale w/o it distorting the image? I'm currently using TweenLite for my tweening/scaling.
View 1 RepliesIm building a site for a photographer, all images are xml driven.. When a thumb is clicked the full size image is loaded into an empty movie clip.
I am after a similar effect as seen here..[URL] If you resize the window the image resizes to scale...
I have managed to align the rest of the movieCLips to the stage when it is resized in its right positions just can't get the image to resize!.
It also need to have some random scaling to it, maybe something like this code below.
Code:
targXscale = 50;
targYscale = 200;

I have a rectangle drawn on the screen. I exported the center of the rectangle for action script. I have an instance of the center exported rectangle overlaying my main rectangle. I do this so that I can change the back color with actionscript. I have the blending property of the overlaying rectangle set to overlay so that borders of my original rectangle are visible.
My problem is when I scale the flash window the borders of my rectangle sometimes dissappear.
If you click the "FS" button inside the player for full screen, it goes to full screen, but does not scale my player. Here's my SWF embed code. I have tried it both this way and taking out the wmode line.

I have basic shapes created using flex primitives classes like ellipse rectangle etc. Each of these are added into a graphic object.Now i am in search of a mechanism to select it and scale it (as in Photoshop Transform -dragable corners and edges, image gets scaled on dragging)
View 1 RepliesI want to animate a person moving off into the distance, but while I want the size of the figure to get smaller, I don't want the weight of the lines that comprise the image to scale down, too. I made this little sample of a person skating (poorly) away from the viewer, and I'd like the line weight to be 9 points in the first frame and the last frame. Is there a setting that allows me to exclude stroke weight when scaling and resizing an object?
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a Flash application that has thumbnails and fullsize versions of an image. The steps I'm taking:
- import the image at runtime, and attach to a movieclip (we'll call it polaroid, since that's what I'm calling it).
- resize polaroid via polaroid._width=3; polarois._height=3; to get my thumb
The image quality is OK for pictures, but it's also fairly important that text not look too pixelated. Is there anything relatively simple (i.e. not too taxing on RAM) I can do here? Even a blurring layer would do the job, if there is any such thing.

View 1 RepliesI've search through all the threads with "scaling" and "resizing" and can't find the solution.
Basically I have a GUI element on a gallery that I don't want to scale, while the rest of the page is free to resize/scale.
I think I need to add a listener of some sort to the stage, but I'm not sure how to do this.
I'm building some navigation that extends all the way from left to right across my SWF. When the window resizes, I'd like the nav buttons to get wider but not have the text on the buttons get wider.
The buttons themselves are rectangles with a vertical gradient and a stroke around the outside. I'm using 9-slice scaling so the stroke doesn't scale, but the middle (gradient) gets wider or narrower.What'd be great is to be able to select an object or layer and say "don't scale, even if the rest of this movie clip scales". Is there a way to do that, or will I have to do it via actionscript?
I'm trying to dynamically addChild a Sprite to an already tweened MovieClip (tweened on the Flash timeline).
Let's say ObjectA is the tweened object, I published it in my swc and linked it to my Actionscript project in Flash Builder. I make an instance of ObjectA in my class, and then try to do the following:
var objectA:ObjectA = new ObjectA();
var objectB:ObjectB = new ObjectB();
objectA.addChild(objectB);
addChild(objectA);
Now, the problem is, objectB doesn't tween along with objectA. Is there any logical solution to this?

View 1 Repliesi have a diagonal movieclip that I am trying to scale along with the background video. The background video scales perfect, I am attaching the diagonal movieclip (br in the code as bottomright) with addChild
Instead of scaling with the window, it seems to repeat such as the image is displaying. this is the main section of the code that is doing the scaling
var br:mc_bottomright = new mc_bottomright();
addChild(br);
//proportional scale
if ((stage.stageWidth / stage.stageHeight)> (owidth/oheight))

I am trying to achieve an effect of scaling a movie clip on click...very similar to [URL] When the user clicks on See, Hear, Play and Shop boxes, the boxes expand. I have created a box movieclip that has a bar on top. This bar is a movie clip inside the box movieclip. When i try to scale the main box movieclip, the internal bar movie clip scales as well. How to stop this?
View 2 RepliesI have a swf file that loads into my main movie, and within that swf there is a masked image that i would like to scale using zoom in and out buttons and also by using a slider bar.However i cant find any tutorials that will allow me to combine the two.I have used the following code for the buttons. Which seems to work ok but i would like it to be a little smoother. (using speed or some sort of easing??)
ActionScript Code:
zoomPlus.onRelease = function(zoomIn) {
if (test_shirt.shirt._xscale == 400 && test_shirt.shirt._yscale == 400) {[code]....
but for this code it keeps shrinking my initial object down to 10 pixels by 10 pixels..
really sorry to bring this one up again. I've managed to create quite good working gallery. What I'm trying to now is create a menu that is attached to the scaling part but does not scale it self - in other words just changes position. here's an example of what I mean: galleru #1

View 13 RepliesI really don't know much about flash or swf files but in updating my portfolio I came across Polaroid gallery. I have managed to update the background jpeg with my own picture and remove the fade effect. However in the original program the background was tileable so when seen in a full screen browser looked fine. As my picture is not tileable I would like to know if it is possible to scale the background or the whole swf object without tiling the background.

Dynamically set property of Object in it? How can I do this.[code]...
View 1 RepliesSo, if I need to give a custom variable name to an object how would I do that?
For instance, if I have a gameID that is 12345 and its rating is 3 I want to save a variable called gameRatings_12345 thats value is 3 in my shared local object.
//share object
protected var mySavedData:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("mySavedData");
I have the game id in a string
var gameID:String = "12345";
Then when I try to assign the value like this...
mySavedData.data.gameRatings_gameID = 3
I think it's literally reading it as "mySavedData.data.gameRatings_gameID" instead of "mySavedData.data.gameRatings_12345"
How can I give the variable a custom name?

I don't mind if you just want to upload it. But if you do, follow my method (I don't know, say for example using masks or something), and just add new variables if needed.
Essentially what the project consists of is I have random balls appearing on the screen and moving around and I need to make it so that the user is able to draw a circle around the ball (may be more than one) and have that balls dissapear and count the number of balls circled.This project is being done in flash builder 4.5 and is being made for the android platform as part of a senior project.I have been able to randomly create the balls and give them a random movement. I have also been able to figure out how to allow the user to draw on the screen.
What I am trying to figure out is how to make it so that if the user draws a circle around the balls make it so that I know these balls have been circled and make them dissapear and have the number of balls inside the area calculated.I have thought about making the entire background a grid and make it so that I can track somehow the line made by the user and then track the coordinate of the balls then if it is within that area it means that the ball has been circled but I would like something more efficient than that.
