Just actionscript? [URL] i use tweener to animate blocks of text created dynamically but like that, on Browse effect database, take a look on Scatterbounce. just so cool! just actionscript???
View 2 RepliesI am trying to animate a few primitives that have been created dynamically with tweener. It works if the tweener method is inside the loop, but not when it is outside.

I created a movie clip [code]...
How can I animate this (slide to x position), since there is nothing in timeline ?
ive built it based off of an example we made in class last year that i had lying around..
as you can see here everything works fine.
The only problem is I want to add some roll over effects to the thumbnail but im not sure how to go about this as they are all dynamically added to the stage..
The way I tried was adding an event listener to each thumb via the function that adds the thumbs to the stage (see the "createThumbs()" function below). The event listener works fine and calls to the function i assigned to it ("thumbRoll") but im not sure what to put in this function to effect the thumb that is moused over as im unable to access "btn_thumb" from "thumbRoll".
ps. sorry if the code is a bit messy, bit of an experiment for me to get everything working..

I have recently started working with Mahjong game. But being not so experienced developer. I am just confuse about many aspects of it. So if anyone could throw some light on it. I have to build the game where there could be different number of tiles on screen. 32, 48, 64 , 80, 96, 112 and so on Now I have questions regarding the levels of blocks in this game. I mean the layouts of the game should be predefined or they should be dynamically created? Also I wanted to know how the surface of enable and disable symbols are created?

Is it possible to use addChild with tweener or transitions, I mean not only bring the child to the stage, but at the same time make this animated?especially in this type of code:

I want to draw then animate a line using Tweener. The problem with my code is it does not just tween the width it tweens the dot I create in the x and y directions. giving me big blobs rather than long thin lines.

First let me say that I am just starting out in AS3 so this may be a simple problem that I am having due to my lack of experience. Goal: I have a mask over a mc that holds video being streamed in. This mask is set to show only a portion of the video and when the user mouses over the mask I want it to expand to show the whole movie. When the user mouses off the mask I want it to re-size back to its original size.Problem: The second time the mouse is over the mask, it does get tweened to the larger size, but you do NOT see the animation occur. It just blinks in.Code:I have included everything but my video class and grid class.For this I have turned off my grid. BTW this my FLA file includes this class. I have this feeding from an xml file, i removed that code. I also have 2 other movies that will function the same as movie1 but I have removed that code. Once I get movie1 working it should be fine for movies 2 and 3.
Code:
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import flash.utils.Timer;

If you look at my Flash file "Grid.fla" (again see attached files) you'll see a group of 14 images which are loaded from an XML file ("Grid.xml") and when the user rolls their mouse over an image it uses the Tweener library to animate the image into its full size.
The problem is I need the images to animate into the center of the screen - see an example of what I'm trying to achieve by opening the SWF file within the attached ZIP called "StormGallery.swf".
But I have no idea how to do add this type of animation into my "Grid.fla" file!
I have been animating with google tweener for a while now in as2, and I just got flash cs4. Does anyone know if google tweener can animate the z-axis for the 3d stuff? If not, how can 3d objects be animated dynamically?

I made a flash animation of a character walking, exported it as .swf, made sure it worked in the flash player, and imported it into After Effects. I used keyframes to map out where I wanted my character to walk. I played it back, first using space bar, then using 0, and my character didn't animate.
I didn't script anything. I was trying to follow these directions to create a walk animation[url]...
At step 4 the guy said, " I won't delve into how to create each frame of the cycle because for one thing, you can have a look at the fla. that I enclose at the end of the tutorial, and for another it's not that hard. I'm sure you can do that!" I didn't download his project because I already know how keyframes work, I knew what I needed to do to make my animation walk the way I wanted it to walk. From there I right clicked on the movie clip, clicked "Export SWF...", and named it.
How can I can I get my character to animate when I preview my work in After Effects? Was there something I should have done while in Flash to make it work in After Effects?
I'm having trouble with dynamically assigning text to a dynamically created text field.
[Code]...
I've tried setting up the TextFormat and createTextField as a function that's called on the onRelease handler. I've tried dropping the whole frackin' code in the onRelease function for each button. Neither approach works. I've been digging around on the web, looking for answers, and nothing seems to solve my problem.
I have a code that creates 10 dynamic text fields, along the "y" axis, based on a loop.
What I want to happen is, for each text field that is created, i want the numbers to constantly change based on a timer (they'll all change at the same time, but to random numbers).
Right now, the code below changes the numbers, but keeps stacking the new numbers on top of the old...
Code:
Code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(100,0);//called every Xms, repeated infinately (0);
timer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, doNumber);
timer.start ();

I am creating a series of text fields to display data from an xml file.

I am trying to make a quiz application. I want to use classes in this project (which I am still learning how to use). I found a sample posted by a user here that I can clearly understand. The issue I am having is that actaul text for the questions is very long. So when I apply my questions it just runs the text off of the stage. How can I have the text field drop to another line so that it doenst go off of the stage? Here is the code that creates the text field (it is on an AS file).
public function QuizQuestion(theQuestion:String, theAnswer:int, ...answers) { //store the supplied arguments in the private variables: question = theQuestion; theCorrectAnswer = theAnswer; choices = answers; //create and position the textfield (question): questionField = new TextField();

I am guessing I need to add something where the text field is created that talks about the width of the text field and allow it to be multiline, I am just not sure how to word it in AS3...
all of my text (which is created dynamically) disappears. But when I comment it out, it all reappears. Why is my code doing this and what can I do to fix it?

I have a slight issue with a dynamically created text field I have. Basically I have a movieclip already on stage, and within it, using actionscript I create a text field in itAll that works, however when I animate the alpha of the parent movieclip from 0 to 100, the text field is always there, it never fades in. It looks wierd too, like the movielip will fade in, but the text will be there already without the fade, even though that textfield is inside the moveliphere's my code;
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = new TitleFont().fontName;
my_fmt.color = 0xFFFFFF;

I am trying to create 2 dynamic text fields at run time and load an XML in the fields. These 2 text fields are separated by a small space between them no matter how many lines of text the XML file contains.After few attempts there is still a problem with loading 1 of the 2 external XML files.The attached example loads 1 of the 2 XML files only when the text of text field 1 is written inside Flash.one_txt.text = "write some text here"When i try to load on both fields XML files an error comes up which I am not able to figure out why!
View 2 RepliesCould someone please outline the proper syntax for formatting text in a dynamically created texfield using actionscript 3 please? I understand the textColor but for some reason txtfld.textFont = "Verdana"; doesnt work for me.
View 3 RepliesI created a movieclip and linked it to a class called CustomButton. Inside the movie clip is a text field with name btnText. I then created a few buttons with this code:
Code:
var newBtn:CustomButton = new CustomButton();
// set properties of new button
newBtn.x = INIT_X;
[code]....
So far, so good. Everything works ok and the code sets the text of the new movieclip. Now, I wanted to actually write the CustomButton class and add some properties and eventually do other stuff with it and so I wrote this:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[code]....
On trying my script again, it gives me this error:
Code:1119: Access of possibly undefined property text through a reference with static type String
the line of code it refers to is:
Code:
newBtn.btnText.text = text;
I'm dynamically creating movieclips with dynamically created movieclips inside them and am having trouble with targeting them.Below is a simplified example of what I'm trying to achieve, in the real file there are a lot more movieclips and I'm creating and naming them with a for loop.
This one is just one Sprite created inside another sprite. I can target the top level sprite named "testname". However when i try target the nested MC it throws an error.The bottom couple of traces are just test MCs I've made to make sure i got the syntax right, on targeting nested movieclips.
PHP Code:
var holder:Sprite = new test1();holder.name = "testname";this.addChild(holder);var holder2:Sprite = new test2();holder2.name = "testname2";holder.addChild(holder2);trace(getChildByName("testname").x); //this one traces finetrace(getChildByName("testname").getChildByName("testname2").x);//this throws up an errortrace(testclip1.x);trace(testclip1.testclip2.x);

Does anyone know of any good image effects that can be created with flash mx and photoshop?

there are many flash with obviously too complicated video effects thsat impossible to create in Flash itself even with most advanced actionscript. I purchased couple of samples and it turns out its just sequence of images from the video i guess. So my question what video programs are used to create this and what effects packs are availible for flash or that video programs i rather buy stack than pay per each.

Since, it is for flex mobile project, when I input any text in arabic, it shows separate characters. Arabic is a language that doesn't have separate characters. It should combine letters to form specific word.
