I have a bunch of MCs that when you click each individual one it will start to move up and down with a yoyo-ing tween. I would like all of the MCs to move up and down at the same time rather than start exactly when you click on them so they are moving at different times.
I wish to move multiple items at the same time with tween.
I'm currently using a loop that calls for the same tween for each item.
I then want to do something when the tween has finished using the tween listener. The problem is that it is being called each time for every item that is being moved. I know I could do some variable that changes from true to flase if its been called once, but is there a better way of doing this?
i use loadmovie() to load youtube videos inside my flash website but when i load another video the old one doesn't stop, so i tried unloadmovie to destroy it but it seems that i did a mistake in my code
This is how the code looks to stop the old one an load the new:
vloader.unloadMovie();
vloader.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/Alw5hs0chj0&hl=fr&fs=1hJ-mPcGtC");
How to do that? use other objects or classes, i only want to edit that code.
Note: I have an empty MOVIE CLIP called "vloader" where i load the video player.
Any way of moving everything off the stage taht is of two types of movie clip.. see I have a couple of entities on my stage, one is a menu which has a series of buttons each of which have a number of event listeners etc. Then I also have two types of movie clip, and at any one time I will never know how many of each I will have.. Is there a way of calling all movie clips on the stage and setting their coordinates? But only movie clips of a certain type?
View 8 RepliesI have a movieclip called bar_mc that I would like to move when it gets to a certain time, I'm trying to use this code but need to move the clip the same time everyday but cant seem to work out how to change the code so that it works on just the time not the day. reason I dont want to use the day is because I need to move the movieclip 24 times a day rather than 168

View 5 RepliesThe stage is separated into 4 sections, and I will be moving the camera around the stage. So at each particular section the camera will have an area of constrain it can move. I mange to constrain its X & Y, but it could only navigate either X or Y. How to move in X+Y at the same time?
if (mouseX>sec2maxX) {
TweenLite.to(vC, 1, {x:sec2maxX});
} else if (mouseX<sec2minX) {

if i were to put X & Y in a same line of code it would be a lot of possibilities when the mouse is on top left or right bottom kind of situation, so I need to have it running seperately, but how can I combine it so that it could move X+Y?
I am making a banner for my web which consists of jigsaw puzzle pieces (40pieces) moving and positioning until they cover the whole banner.I have stored all final positions (x and y) into 2 separate arrays and created 40 instances (i have 20Mclips and i repeat each one twice to get those 40). What i wanted is make each intance move separatly like with a timer and for loop to pick each piece, do the moves with tweenings and wait around 1sec and then do the next loop with and then move the next piece and so on and so forth.My problem is that I dunno how to cycle through each piece (named and in an array) and make the specific move without doing it all at once.
View 2 RepliesI need to scale and move a object at the same time.
Like in this example but with actionscript instead of motion tweening.
I'm loading external font swf's, when using the textFormat class, the fonts come through perfectly and I am able to style them as I need. However I would like in time to move over to an external stylesheet, mainly because I would like to use both methods depending on the type of projects im doing at the time.
When I try to use the stylesheet and call the font that is needed nothing comes through, I have done a trace on the fontClass and get undefined for the fontName, fontStyle and fontType. I am only using a simple example at the moment as below

I know the stylesheet is working because I can manipulate the colour and size when embed fonts is not on the textfield. But im unable to use the desired externally loaded font.

Ive tried searching, but i have no clue what keyword i could use. Here's my case: I'm trying to get a MovieClip to move 20px at a time. Not like "this._x += 20;" or whatever. cause then it would just go fast. I want it to move 20px that one time you hit the button. And 20px further the next time. Or 20px each half second or something.
I thought i solved it when i figured this out: What if i nudge the picture inside the MovieClip 20px each frame, and code it this way:

I have been using a tutorial to simply animate the 'get fast' text. I simply would like to have the text move onto the image one letter at a time ..coming in from the right. I've attached a file. Can someone please help me move from this point forward? Also, when I do get it to do something, the preview doesn't show the text coming in to sit on the 'car' graphic.

View 4 RepliesFlash Builder has a nice feature that will allow you to have it move files such as images, fonts, xml files and so forth into the bin-debug directory an compile time. The reason for doing this would be to mock up some data or test pulling in assets dynamically but having them in source directory so you can version control the assets during development. Typically we don't add the bin directory to version control so being able to have the IDE move files over to bin for you is very helpful if you are on a large team.
Is there a feature within FDT5 that will do this like Flash Builder?

I have a function that adds a player to a sprite containerwhen that player is clicked a hit test is done on the tiles surrounding that player that it can move to and put into an array.all that works fine.my problem is after I add more than one player to the stage I can only move the latest addition when I use MapInfo.player.x = (hexagon_width * .25) + hexagon_x_position-90;I thought if I used getChildByName I might get around making a custom event.but I get an Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. when I use the code below
trace(MapInfo.getPlayer);// =MapInfo.player.name
var targetisplayObject = MapInfo.player.getChildByName(MapInfo.getPlayer);
target.x = (hexagon_width * .25) + hexagon_x_position-90;

how to animate a piston like the one above in flash cs5? Should I use bones? if so how? At the moment the only way I can see to do it is to step through one frame at a time and move the linkage rod and piston into the correct posistion.
View 2 RepliesI have a button that uses attachMovie to add a movieclip to the stage. You can add multiple instances of this clip to the stage, which works fine. I also have a feature whereby you can select and move these objects around the stage one by one. I am trying to add a feature whereby you can select more than one object at a time (indicated with a drop shadow - which I have working) and then move them together. This feature would also allow you to rotate the selected objects by 90, leaving the unselected objects where they are. I'm fairly certain that I'll need an array to hold the selected objects, and then use this info to move/transform only the chosen objects, but I can't figure out how to implement this.

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a game right now where I'm going to have paths dynamically built by the user for multiple AI objects to "walk" along. I'll be detecting/redrawing the path only on user input but I'm still debating over the fastest possible method to update the movement of many AI objects "walking" along/up/down the given path. Think for example of pac man, but the level is dynamic. Right now I'm leaning toward building the enemies in a linked list of final classes and looping through the linked list calling a function in each of the AI objects to plot the next move along the path.
