ActionScript 2.0 :: MX Rotation And Scaling?
Feb 16, 2003
I'm interested in distorting movie clips at runtime based on user input. I know how to rotate - thats easy : clip._rotation is a number from 0 to 360. I know how to scale - thats easy too : clip._xscale and clip._yscale are conveniently independent. But how do you SKEW a movie clip at runtime??The best I can come up with is really complicated. If you put a symbol within a symbol and name both ( something like shell and core ), you can squish and rotate them independently, making it possible to distort the clip twice as many ways.
shell.core._yscale = 160;
shell.core._xscale = 100;
shell.core._rotation = 45;

I have a simple graphic, a rectangle with 3 rounded corners with 9-slice scaling applied. When I scale it non-proportionally, the round corners keep their shape as expected. BUT if I then rotate it the round corners lose their shape and become ellipticaly distorted! If I rotate first and then scale the same thing happens.

I have a movieclip and when I do 3D rotation from Transform panel, It rotates perfect, center is in the middle of image, and when I apply mc.rotationY, rotation center is in left of the image, aren't 3D rotation from Transform panel and mc.rotationY from AS same? what's up?

I'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 trying to do some augmented reality projects with flartoolkit . I can now put simple 3d objects on my marker and it works fine , but I wanna give my project some events that the user can interact with. I'm trying to trace the rotation of the marker. there's a container:DisplayObject3D which my application uses to add the 3d objects , I traced this :"trace(container.rotationZ)" but it's just returning 0 . I studied another AR application's source code and it was using the rotation of it's container object without problem .and I think I should mention that I'm using the exercise file of seb lee delisle papervision3d course from [URL]. anyone has any experience with flartoolkit? the main functions of my my code is as below:

Is it possible to have the child movieclip rotate separate of the rotation properties assigned to the parent? so ultimately giving the child element it's own axis?I've customized Lee Brimelows (gotoandlearn.com) 3D carousel to spin on the x axis to make it a vertical carousel. I've also rotated that by 45 degrees on the y axis to see all the items, and wrote a snippet of code to hide the left portion of the carousel. The entire carousel is contained within the 'container' movieclip, and inside of that are my carousel items (as seen below), with the larger item being the item in focus.
On rollover of the item in focus, I want to rotate it so it faces the viewer (as seen below),basically removing the 45 degree rotation applied to the container.The problem i'm running into is when you rotate the container (changing the rotationX of the container), the axis basically rotates with it, so when i rollover the next item 'in focus', the following happens..(in the example where it appears how it want it to, the carousel is at a rotationX of 0, so it works fine)

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?

Program A has a cannon that aims to line up with where-ever the mouse is pointing, in 360 degrees, and fires when the mouse is is clicked. Program B has an eye instead of a cannon that should in theory do similar functions when the capslock key is toggled, but instead only has a 90 degree range of motion from the Right of the eye toward the bottom (quadrant 4 only). Where did the ther 270 degrees of rotation disappear to?

i.m trying to create a 3d rotation much like the widely used carousel only the rotation i desire consist of four upright(90 degrees) movieclips resting on a slanted, 30 degree plane which rotate onEnterFrame or following a tween on a oval like path - then pause for a given number of seconds at the four movieclips positions equal in distance on the plane
function around() {
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);

i 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?

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

I am trying to do a simple "pseudo 3D" rotation of a movie clip. The clip would "flip" on to the screen. I have created the effect using PaperVision3D, however, the final SWF is about 64k and my project requires a smaller file size. I tried to create the flip effect manually by creating skewed versions of the clip and tweening between them, except this doesn't work because the shape is not tweaked along the vanishing point as it should be. It looks like perhaps I could accomplish what I want to do using the MatrixTransformer but I've not had much luck so far.

I have a pointer that rotates with this code (on the MC):
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_rotation += 0.2;
}
This works fine but now I would like to have another pointer but with an starting angle of 60degrees. Is there an easy way to ad a starting degree or angle value on this code?

How can I control the center of rotation when manipulating CS4's 3D properties? --I mean in code, that is. I've set the 3D Center Point in the Transform Panel, and if I rotate the MovieClip in the IDE, it rotates correctly... but when I manipulate rotationY via code, that 3D Center Point is not used.

So I've found numerous tutorials on rotating to face the mouse, and none of the rotation equations work properly for me. I made my own that worked but then it just over complicated things such as bullet direction and the likes so I want to figure out what's going wrong.
Code:
var radians:Number =Math.atan2(mouseY-ME.y,mouseX-ME.x)
var degrees:Number = (radians/Math.PI)*180;

I want to know what is going on with my flash document where more of the document is showing than the document size. despite the little white box showing the size, if i set scaling to 100% it starts reaching past the boundaries. how can I get my flash doc to scale without viewing what is essentially outside of the frame?I am experimenting with getting my flash website to scale. I have tried a few things like SCALE="default" in the html and such. I want to try and keep the aspect and scale, but have a minimum size. For this I have been trying swffit.

I am making a site using a liquid layout in Flash and have added an FLV with playback component swf. When I test the file it scales fine in the browser until you try rescale/minimise/enlarge etc. It then squashes.Url...Try rescaling the browser and you'll see the issue occuring. This only happens with the FLV playback component added. It is a linked file by the by and not embedded.

I needed to convert a simple graphic symbol into a movie because I wanted to give it depth using the (gradient bevel) filter effect. The movie has to appear at different sizes in my animation but the filter effect does not scale with the symbol. Is there a way to make this filter effect (gradient bevel) scale when I scale the symbol it is applied to?

I have a flash file that I am scaling. There are buttons in the file that have tooltips that pop up when you roll over them.Problem is, the tooltips scale with the .swf file so they get huge and are not in the right spot over the button anymore.the tooltips will maintain a size without being scaled?
