ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 Movieclip Area Movement - Restrict The Area In Which The Movieclip Can Actually Move ?

Apr 24, 2009

I have made a movieclip and gave the frame this actionscript:

------------------------------------------------------------
var keyListener:Object = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyDown = function() {[code]........

it moves fine and stuff but i was wondering how can i restrict the area in which the movieclip can actually move ? my flash file is 550px X 400px and i want to make it so that it can only move in 300px X 200px of the file if you understand ?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 Scrolling MovieClip: Loop Within Set Area?

Jul 29, 2009

I've got a movieClip that's scrolling across the stage that loops nicely (kinda like the many cloud animations out there).

I've set the clip up to stop it's scrolling on a rollOver, and start up again on the rollOut.

My problem is that after the rollOut the loop doesn't work. The movieClip just keeps travelling.

Code:
blue.onEnterFrame = function() {
blue._x -= 2;
if (blue._x<=-0) {

Actionscript 3.0 :: Making Movieclip Randomly Move Around A Constrained Area

Mar 11, 2010

I have an array of display objects that are simple scattered circles on the stage. My goal is to have them move around randomly within, say, a 5/10 pixel radius/range from their original x and y. Sort of like fireflies, but not as jittery and fast, I'm looking for something real smooth. What I have now is something like this:

Code: Select allfor (var g=0; g < total_circles; g++)
{
circle = new DrawCircle( 3, 0xFFFFFF );
circle.x = random; circle.y = random;
addChild(circle);
jitter = JitterCircle( circle, 10 );
}

So as you can see for each circle I call a class JitterCircle and pass it two values: the actual display object and the range I want my circle to fly around in.
Inside JitterCircle I have this:

CS3 Movieclip Button Hit Area

May 8, 2009

I have a movieclip button with the following actionscript (which I have on the main timeline above my MC layer):

movieclip1.onRollOver = function(){ movieclip1.gotoAndPlay("normal");
}
movieclip1.onRollOut = function(){ movieclip1.gotoAndPlay("hitout");
}
movieclip1.onPress = function(){ movieclip1.gotoAndPlay("over");
}

This works perfectly! My movieclip button takes up the whole stage but I don't want the whole stage to be my hit area (which right now it is). I was searching and I found this actionscript: hit._visible = false;
this.hitArea = hit; The tutorial said to make another layer inside my MC, then add that code. But when I play my movie, I can still see my green square (which was supposed to be my hit area) and it does nothing!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Resizing Movieclip In A Restricted Area?

Jul 7, 2009

I have 2 moveclip called view_mc and restricted and button called btn_scale.
 
When the user click and drag btn_scale, it resizes the view_mc where the width and height of view_mc dosen't exceed the width and height/2 of restricted area.

I made that.  But when view_mc reaches the width and height/2 of restricted area, I can't resize view_mc to be samller. (The btn_scale looks like it's disables and can't use it)

I think some logic is missing. I highlighted the code that is missing some logic.
 
var clickedX:Number;
var clickedY:Number;

Flash :: Reducing The Hit Area On A Movieclip Button?

Sep 20, 2010

I created a movie clip button that contains 2 text fields, one static and one dynamic. The dynamic text field holds strings that will vary in length. This MC in general is used as a button so what im trying to do is not have the hit area as large as the length of the text box.

If you go to http:[url].... and click on (takeout > menu) you will see on the menu all the items listed are overlapping onto the picture, i want to limit the hit area so that does not happen. I cannot shorten the MC because it will vary in length, and if it does become that long then that portion should not be clickable.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rollover Button With Nested Movieclip Is Interfering With Hit Area

Dec 11, 2009

I have created a world map that has each region of the world as a rollover. When you rollover the US, for example, it turns red and a movieclip pops out to display some info...it's basically a graphic I created in Illustrator that is a rectangle with info written on it.
 
The rollover works fine and everything pops out, but when you move the cursor close to the popout, it thinks you have rolled off the US. When you hit the edge it pops in and out almost like it is blinking.
 
How can I make it so that they are one hit area? Here is some of the code:
 
na_mc.buttonMode=true; 
setChildIndex(na_mc,0); 
na_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, onButtonOver);na_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, onButtonOut);
