Actionscript 3.0 :: Placing Elements On An Oval Path?

Jan 14, 2011

I have an array of items, and would like to position them from left to right, along the under part of an oval path, and space them evenly. (with actionscript).So, going from 180 degrees from the left, and ending up at 0 degrees on the right, while also increasing the y form 0 to 70, and then back to 0. The oval having a width of 1000px, and a height 0f 140px.

A) I have had a hard time getting the correct angle to start at (I figured it would be 180, because Flash's coordinate system is backwards).

B) How do I divide the space between the start angle and end angle evenly with the length of the arrray? It should be decreasing the angle to get back to 0, no?I have been using this structure:

Code: Select allvar angle:Number = 0;
var centerX:Number = 500;
var centerY:Number = 0;
var radiusX:Number = 500;

Make A Simple Ball Follow An Oval Motion Path?

Oct 23, 2009

how to make a simple ball follow an oval motion path? Think of a molecule spinning (and looping) around a nucleus. This was five seconds work in previous versions where you could draw the motion guide then simply attach an object to it and say "orient to path"  but I can't seem to find how to do it in CS4.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Moving A MovieClip Along A Motion Path

Jan 24, 2011

I need to have a MovieClip/Sprite move along a path (which will likely be a Shape object) which is drawn dynamically and is going to be segments of straight-lines that bounces off the walls/edges of the stage. I now that Flash CS4 itself allows tween animation along a path, but I haven't been able to find an example of doing similar things in code. Most of the examples I see just deal with the x/y values directly. Is there no way to animate a MovieClip along an existing path object?

IDE :: Oval / Rectangle Tool And Oval / Rectangle Primitive Tool

Nov 14, 2010

I do know how to use the oval / rectangle and oval / rectangle primitive tools in the tool bar and find them quite useful, but one thing I find confusing is. A oval / rectangle primitive object can be edited later but the oval / rectangle can't. So the point is,how do we use them properly ? when to use ? Why does Adobe Flash still keep the oval / rectangle tool in their product instead of removing them with the oval / rectangle primitive tool ?

Actionscript :: Get Url Path Of Self (movieclip) In Flash Within A Hierarchy Of Multiple Parent Movieclips?

Apr 3, 2011

Let's say I am loading a movieclip from a remote url within another movieclip on another server.

This movieclip now needs to load another child movie clip on the same server as itself.

How can it get its own url and not the url of its parent container so as to load this child ? Because if it refers to "child.swf" it will be relative to the super parent container insted of the first server isn't it ? So it will not be able to load the child correctly if all it can get is the url of the parent.

Flash :: Mxmlc Compiler - Source-path Preferred Over Library-path?

Nov 9, 2011

the same class is passed to the mxmlc compiler in SWF library as a symbol linkage class and again in a source-path. But the compiler uses the definition from the source-path so creating new instance of that class won't create new instance of the library symbol. How do I tell the compiler to prefer the definition linked to the symbol (the one dfrom SWC)?

I have my design assets in an FLA file and they are linked to classes (e.g. [URL]. Then I export those assets to a SWC library and pass it to the compiler. Now when I create an instance of the class (new MyAsset();) it will be a new instance of the library object.

But there are other classes too in the source folder (e.g. "com.myproject.model.*" so I need to pass the source folder to the compiler too. And that is the problem, now the compiler will use the MyAsset.as definition from the source path, not from the SWC where it is assigned to the library object so if I create new instance of MyAsset now it won't duplicate the library object.

Professional :: Oval Buttons In Library Look Different On Stage

Jan 27, 2011

I'm using Flash CS5's common library to put some buttons on the stage. I've gone into the classic buttons folder and dragged and dropped a blue oval button onto the stage, and it appears in the library, but the button looks totally different to the one in the library. Where the one in the library has shading and a glow effect, the one on stage looks flat, with just a primary colour and no shading or glow. This occurs whether I drag straight from the common library tab to the stage, or from the library panel on the right to the stage.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Fit Text To Circle/Oval?

Jun 9, 2011

Just a quick question today, is there any way to quickly and simply fit a string of text into a circular shape? Almost as if the text field was circular instead of rectangular. I have been working on a game where the text is presented in a series of speech bubble shapes, and previously I've had to manually insert " " around the text to get it to fit. This was a bit of a hassle but overall not too much extra work. Now, however, the game has been translated into 14 different languages and I sure as hell am not going through all that text to sort it out again haha

If there's no quick and easy way to do it (I don't really want to go down the route of using a loop to search for the last space in the first X characters and inserting a new line, etc) I'm just going to contact the artist and ask him to make the speech bubbles rectangular lol I did a google search to see if I could find anything but most of the stuff I found either wasn't relevant or said "there isn't an easy way to do it yet" but I just wanted to check here first.

I was in an AS3 course last year and the instructor mentioned that the Oval Options of an Oval Primitive -- start angle, end angle, inner radius -- could be animated in AS3.Does anyone know if this is true, and if so, what are the Classes involved? I've been through everything I know and I can't find a reference to it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Alter .alpha Property Of Square From Within Oval?

Feb 14, 2011

Attempting to move from AS2 to AS3 and become OOPed! I've come to a sudden halt over the last few days with some basics.I will use a simply example to describe my query.3 movieclips, a square, circle and oval, drawn in Flash, dragged to the stage and given instance names of square, circle and oval! The square and circle sit on the main timeline, the oval movieclip sits within the circle movieclip. How can I alter the .alpha property of the square from within the oval?Each movieclip has its own class .as file (and linked to the instance on stage) but I have not been able to generate a path in the ovals AS3 class script to access outside it and up to the square on the main timeline to change the squares .alpha property.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Variable In A Path To A MovieClip?

Apr 20, 2010

using a variable in a path to a MovieClip.

I have a menu with 4 tabs. When I click on one I want it to open and the previous one to close.

I'm storing the previous tab as a variable (_previousTab) but am having trouble adding the variable to the path to the MovieClip of the previous tab. The error Flash gives me is:

TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at MenuRun/menuOpen()

If I replace mainframe[_previousTab] with the name of the MovieClip it works fine. I'm thinking it's something to do with the variable being a String perhaps?
